بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الم
A. L. M. 
غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ
The Roman Empire has been defeated-
فِي أَدْنَى الْأَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُونَ
In a land close by; but they, (even) after (this) defeat of theirs, will soon be victorious-
فِي بِضْعِ سِنِينَ ۗ لِلَّهِ الْأَمْرُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَمِنْ بَعْدُ ۚ وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ
Within a few years. With Allah is the Decision, in the past and in the Future: on that Day shall the Believers rejoice-
بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ ۚ يَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۖ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ
With the help of Allah. He helps whom He will, and He is exalted in might, most merciful.
وَعْدَ اللَّهِ ۖ لَا يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
(It is) the promise of Allah. Never does Allah depart from His promise: but most men understand not.
