Sura 50: QAF (THE LETTER QAF) - Juz' 26 - Translation Pickthall

رِزْقًا لِلْعِبَادِ وَأَحْيَيْنَا بِهِ بَلْدَةً مَيْتًا كَذَلِكَ الْخُرُوجُ ﴿۱۱﴾
Provision (made) for men; and therewith We quicken a dead land. Even so will be the resurrection of the dead. (11)
كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَأَصْحَابُ الرَّسِّ وَثَمُودُ ﴿۱۲﴾
The folk of Noah denied (the truth) before them, and (so did) the dwellers at Ar-Rass and (the tribe of) Thamud, (12)
وَعَادٌ وَفِرْعَوْنُ وَإِخْوَانُ لُوطٍ ﴿۱۳﴾
And (the tribe of) A'ad, and Pharaoh, and the brethren of Lot, (13)
وَأَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ وَقَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِيدِ ﴿۱۴﴾
And the dwellers in the wood, and the folk of Tubb'a: every one denied their messengers, therefor My threat took effect. (14)
أَفَعَيِينَا بِالْخَلْقِ الْأَوَّلِ بَلْ هُمْ فِي لَبْسٍ مِنْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍ ﴿۱۵﴾
Were We then worn out by the first creation? Yet they are in doubt about a new creation. (15)
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ ﴿۱۶﴾
We verily created man and We know what his soul whispereth to him, and We are nearer to him than his jugular vein. (16)
إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى الْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِيدٌ ﴿۱۷﴾
When the two Receivers receive (him), seated on the right hand and on the left, (17)
مَا يَلْفِظُ مِنْ قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ ﴿۱۸﴾
He uttereth no word but there is with him an observer ready. (18)
وَجَاءَتْ سَكْرَةُ الْمَوْتِ بِالْحَقِّ ذَلِكَ مَا كُنْتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ ﴿۱۹﴾
And the agony of death cometh in truth. (And it is said unto him): This is that which thou wast wont to shun. (19)
وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ ذَلِكَ يَوْمُ الْوَعِيدِ ﴿۲۰﴾
And the trumpet is blown. This is the threatened Day. (20)
