Surat Al-Iman ("Faith")
And make mention of the disciples in the Book, when the wind blew
while they were sailing at night. (1)
{wadhkur filkitabbil hawari-yeena idha asafatir ri-yahoo bihem
laylan wahum yubhiroon}
And then it appeared to them seeing the phantom of Christ walking on the
water. They said: Is He our Lord deriding us or have we gone insane? (2)
{Idh tara'a lahum alal mi-yahee tayful Maseehee yamshee fakaloo
a'huwa rabbuna yahza'oo bina am kad massana tayfun min junoon.}
And there came the voice of the Master announcing to them:
Do not fear, It is I, Don't you see. (3)
{faja'ahumu sawtul-mu'allimi an la takhafoo inni ana huwa
afala tubsiroon?}
Hence, one of them shouted and asked: My Lord, order me, if you
were He, to walk toward you on the water, So God may convert my
doubt to certitude. (4)
{fahatafa hatifon minhumu yakooloo rabbi murni in kunta hakkan huwa
atee alal miyahee elayka asa an yubaddilal'lahoo shalli biyakeen}
He {The Lord) said to him, come toward me and be a miracle for man
that they may remember. (5)
{kala fas'a elay'ya walitakun linnasi ayatan la'allahumu yatadhakkaroon}
And as the disciple began to walk, he saw how strong the wind was
so he became afraid and began to drown. Thus he yelled asking his
lord to help. (6)
{wa'idh tafikal hawari'yoo yamshee ra'a shiddatar'reehi fakhafa
wabada'a yaghrakoo fasa'ha birabbihee yasta'een.}
And He {The Lord} extended His hand to him and took him with it and
said: Oh you who has little faith, such is the reward of those who
doubt. (7)
{famadda biyameenihi lahoo fa'akhadhahoo biha wakala ya kalilal
imani hadha jaza'ool mumtareen}
And as soon as He went on the ship with him the wind calmed down and
the disciples thanked Him with praise and shouted and said: (8)
{wa idh rakibas safinata ma'ahoo sakanatir riyahoo lita'wiha
fasabbahal hawari'yoona bihamdihee wahatafoo lahoo ka'ileen}
You are truly the Son of God; in you we believed and in front of you
we kneel. (9)
{anta huwab'nullahi hakkan fika nahnoo amanna wa'amamka
nakhurroo sajideen}
He said: Joy is for those who believed without mixing their faith
with a doubt for those are truly the successful. (10)
{kala tooba lilladheena amanoo walam yulbisoo imanahumu
bishakken fa'oola'ika humul muflihoon}
