Sura 67: AL-MULK (THE SOVEREIGNTY)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
﴿۱﴾
Blessed is He in Whose hand is the Sovereignty, and, He is Able to do all things. (1)
الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ
﴿۲﴾
Who hath created life and death that He may try you which of you is best in conduct; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving, (2)
الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا مَا تَرَى فِي خَلْقِ الرَّحْمَنِ مِنْ تَفَاوُتٍ فَارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ هَلْ تَرَى مِنْ فُطُورٍ
﴿۳﴾
Who hath created seven heavens in harmony. Thou (Muhammad) canst see no fault in the Beneficent One's creation; then look again: Canst thou see any rifts? (3)
ثُمَّ ارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ كَرَّتَيْنِ يَنْقَلِبْ إِلَيْكَ الْبَصَرُ خَاسِئًا وَهُوَ حَسِيرٌ
﴿۴﴾
Then look again and yet again, thy sight will return unto thee weakened and made dim. (4)
وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ السَّعِيرِ
﴿۵﴾
And verily We have beautified the world's heaven with lamps, and We have made them missiles for the devils, and for them We have prepared the doom of flame. (5)
وَلِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ
﴿۶﴾
And for those who disbelieve in their Lord there is the doom of hell, a hapless journey's end! (6)
إِذَا أُلْقُوا فِيهَا سَمِعُوا لَهَا شَهِيقًا وَهِيَ تَفُورُ
﴿۷﴾
When they are flung therein they hear its roaring as it boileth up, (7)
تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الْغَيْظِ كُلَّمَا أُلْقِيَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَا أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ
﴿۸﴾
As it would burst with rage. Whenever a (fresh) host is flung therein the wardens thereof ask them: Came there unto you no warner? (8)
قَالُوا بَلَى قَدْ جَاءَنَا نَذِيرٌ فَكَذَّبْنَا وَقُلْنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَالٍ كَبِيرٍ
﴿۹﴾
They say: Yea, verily, a warner came unto us; but we denied and said: Allah hath naught revealed; ye are in naught but a great error. (9)
وَقَالُوا لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِي أَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ
﴿۱۰﴾
And they say: Had we been wont to listen or have sense, we had not been among the dwellers in the flames. (10)
فَاعْتَرَفُوا بِذَنْبِهِمْ فَسُحْقًا لِأَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ
﴿۱۱﴾
So they acknowledge their sins; but far removed (from mercy) are the dwellers in the flames. (11)
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَيْبِ لَهُمْ مَغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ كَبِيرٌ
﴿۱۲﴾
Lo! those who fear their Lord in secret, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward. (12)
وَأَسِرُّوا قَوْلَكُمْ أَوِ اجْهَرُوا بِهِ إِنَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ
﴿۱۳﴾
And keep your opinion secret or proclaim it, lo! He is Knower of all that is in the breasts (of men). (13)
أَلَا يَعْلَمُ مَنْ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ
﴿۱۴﴾
Should He not know what He created? And He is the Subtile, the Aware. (14)
هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ ذَلُولًا فَامْشُوا فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا مِنْ رِزْقِهِ وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ
﴿۱۵﴾
He it is Who hath made the earth subservient unto you, so Walk in the paths thereof and eat of His providence. And unto Him will be the resurrection (of the dead). (15)
أَأَمِنْتُمْ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَنْ يَخْسِفَ بِكُمُ الْأَرْضَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَمُورُ
﴿۱۶﴾
Have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not cause the earth to swallow you when lo! it is convulsed? (16)
أَمْ أَمِنْتُمْ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَنْ يُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَاصِبًا فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ كَيْفَ نَذِيرِ
﴿۱۷﴾
Or have ye taken security from Him Who is in the heaven that He will not let loose on you a hurricane? But ye shall know the manner of My warning. (17)
وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَكِيرِ
﴿۱۸﴾
And verily those before them denied, then (see) the manner of My wrath (with them)! (18)
أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلَى الطَّيْرِ فَوْقَهُمْ صَافَّاتٍ وَيَقْبِضْنَ مَا يُمْسِكُهُنَّ إِلَّا الرَّحْمَنُ إِنَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ بَصِيرٌ
﴿۱۹﴾
Have they not seen the birds above them spreading out their wings and closing them? Naught upholdeth them save the Beneficent. Lo! He is Seer of all things. (19)
أَمَّنْ هَذَا الَّذِي هُوَ جُنْدٌ لَكُمْ يَنْصُرُكُمْ مِنْ دُونِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنِ الْكَافِرُونَ إِلَّا فِي غُرُورٍ
﴿۲۰﴾
Or who is he that will be an army unto you to help you instead of the Beneficent? The disbelievers are in naught but illusion. (20)
أَمَّنْ هَذَا الَّذِي يَرْزُقُكُمْ إِنْ أَمْسَكَ رِزْقَهُ بَلْ لَجُّوا فِي عُتُوٍّ وَنُفُورٍ
﴿۲۱﴾
Or who is he that will provide for you if He should withhold His providence? Nay, but they are set in pride and frowardness. (21)
أَفَمَنْ يَمْشِي مُكِبًّا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ أَهْدَى أَمَّنْ يَمْشِي سَوِيًّا عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ
﴿۲۲﴾
Is he who goeth groping on his face more rightly guided, or he who walketh upright on a straight road? (22)
قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِي أَنْشَأَكُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالْأَبْصَارَ وَالْأَفْئِدَةَ قَلِيلًا مَا تَشْكُرُونَ
﴿۲۳﴾
Say (unto them, O Muhammad): He it is who gave you being, and hath assigned unto you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye! (23)
قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِي ذَرَأَكُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ
﴿۲۴﴾
Say: He it is Who multiplieth you in the earth, and unto Whom ye will be gathered. (24)
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَى هَذَا الْوَعْدُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
﴿۲۵﴾
And they say: When (will) this promise (be fulfilled), if ye are truthful? (25)
قُلْ إِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّمَا أَنَا نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ
﴿۲۶﴾
Say: The knowledge is with Allah only, and I am but a plain warner; (26)
فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ زُلْفَةً سِيئَتْ وُجُوهُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَقِيلَ هَذَا الَّذِي كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تَدَّعُونَ
﴿۲۷﴾
But when they see it nigh, the faces of those who disbelieve will be awry, and it will be said (unto them): This is that for which ye used to call. (27)
قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَهْلَكَنِيَ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ مَعِيَ أَوْ رَحِمَنَا فَمَنْ يُجِيرُ الْكَافِرِينَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
﴿۲۸﴾
Say (O Muhammad): Have ye thought: Whether Allah causeth me (Muhammad) and those with me to perish or hath mercy on us, still, who will protect the disbelievers from a painful doom? (28)
قُلْ هُوَ الرَّحْمَنُ آمَنَّا بِهِ وَعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْنَا فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ
﴿۲۹﴾
Say: He is the Beneficent. In Him we believe and in Him we put our trust. And ye will soon know who it is that is in error manifest. (29)
قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَصْبَحَ مَاؤُكُمْ غَوْرًا فَمَنْ يَأْتِيكُمْ بِمَاءٍ مَعِينٍ
﴿۳۰﴾
Say: Have ye thought: If (all) your water were to disappear into the earth, who then could bring you gushing water? (30)
Sura 68: AL-QALAM (THE PEN)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
ن وَالْقَلَمِ وَمَا يَسْطُرُونَ
﴿۱﴾
Nun. By the pen and that which they write (therewith), (1)
مَا أَنْتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُونٍ
﴿۲﴾
Thou art not, for thy Lord's favour unto thee, a madman. (2)
وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجْرًا غَيْرَ مَمْنُونٍ
﴿۳﴾
And lo! thine verily will be a reward unfailing. (3)
وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَى خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ
﴿۴﴾
And lo! thou art of a tremendous nature. (4)
فَسَتُبْصِرُ وَيُبْصِرُونَ
﴿۵﴾
And thou wilt see and they will see (5)
بِأَيْيِكُمُ الْمَفْتُونُ
﴿۶﴾
Which of you is the demented. (6)
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ
﴿۷﴾
Lo! thy Lord is Best Aware of him who strayeth from His way, and He is Best Aware of those who walk aright. (7)
فَلَا تُطِعِ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۸﴾
Therefor obey not thou the rejecters (8)
وَدُّوا لَوْ تُدْهِنُ فَيُدْهِنُونَ
﴿۹﴾
Who would have had thee compromise, that they may compromise. (9)
وَلَا تُطِعْ كُلَّ حَلَّافٍ مَهِينٍ
﴿۱۰﴾
Neither obey thou each feeble oath-monger, (10)
هَمَّازٍ مَشَّاءٍ بِنَمِيمٍ
﴿۱۱﴾
Detracter, spreader abroad of slanders, (11)
مَنَّاعٍ لِلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
﴿۱۲﴾
Hinderer of the good, transgressor, malefactor (12)
عُتُلٍّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ زَنِيمٍ
﴿۱۳﴾
Greedy therewithal, intrusive. (13)
أَنْ كَانَ ذَا مَالٍ وَبَنِينَ
﴿۱۴﴾
It is because he is possessed of wealth and children (14)
إِذَا تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
﴿۱۵﴾
That, when Our revelations are recited unto him, he saith: Mere fables of the men of old. (15)
سَنَسِمُهُ عَلَى الْخُرْطُومِ
﴿۱۶﴾
We shall brand him on the nose. (16)
إِنَّا بَلَوْنَاهُمْ كَمَا بَلَوْنَا أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ إِذْ أَقْسَمُوا لَيَصْرِمُنَّهَا مُصْبِحِينَ
﴿۱۷﴾
Lo! We have tried them as We tried the owners of the garden when they vowed that they would pluck its fruit next morning, (17)
وَلَا يَسْتَثْنُونَ
﴿۱۸﴾
And made no exception (for the Will of Allah); (18)
فَطَافَ عَلَيْهَا طَائِفٌ مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَهُمْ نَائِمُونَ
﴿۱۹﴾
Then a visitation from thy Lord came upon it while they slept (19)
فَأَصْبَحَتْ كَالصَّرِيمِ
﴿۲۰﴾
And in the morning it was as if plucked. (20)
فَتَنَادَوْا مُصْبِحِينَ
﴿۲۱﴾
And they cried out one unto another in the morning, (21)
أَنِ اغْدُوا عَلَى حَرْثِكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَارِمِينَ
﴿۲۲﴾
Saying: Run unto your field if ye would pluck (the fruit). (22)
فَانْطَلَقُوا وَهُمْ يَتَخَافَتُونَ
﴿۲۳﴾
So they went off, saying one unto another in low tones: (23)
أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَنَّهَا الْيَوْمَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِسْكِينٌ
﴿۲۴﴾
No needy man shall enter it to-day against you. (24)
وَغَدَوْا عَلَى حَرْدٍ قَادِرِينَ
﴿۲۵﴾
They went betimes, strong in (this) purpose. (25)
فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهَا قَالُوا إِنَّا لَضَالُّونَ
﴿۲۶﴾
But when they saw it, they said: Lo! we are in error! (26)
بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ
﴿۲۷﴾
Nay, but we are desolate! (27)
قَالَ أَوْسَطُهُمْ أَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكُمْ لَوْلَا تُسَبِّحُونَ
﴿۲۸﴾
The best among them said: Said I not unto you: Why glorify ye not (Allah)? (28)
قَالُوا سُبْحَانَ رَبِّنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ
﴿۲۹﴾
They said: Glorified be our Lord! Lo! we have been wrong-doers. (29)
فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ يَتَلَاوَمُونَ
﴿۳۰﴾
Then some of them drew near unto others, self-reproaching. (30)
قَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا طَاغِينَ
﴿۳۱﴾
They said: Alas for us! In truth we were outrageous. (31)
عَسَى رَبُّنَا أَنْ يُبْدِلَنَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا رَاغِبُونَ
﴿۳۲﴾
It may be that our Lord will give us better than this in place thereof. Lo! we beseech our Lord. (32)
كَذَلِكَ الْعَذَابُ وَلَعَذَابُ الْآخِرَةِ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ
﴿۳۳﴾
Such was the punishment. And verily the punishment of the Hereafter is greater if they did but know. (33)
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ
﴿۳۴﴾
Lo! for those who keep from evil are gardens of bliss with their Lord. (34)
أَفَنَجْعَلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَالْمُجْرِمِينَ
﴿۳۵﴾
Shall We then treat those who have surrendered as We treat the guilty? (35)
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
﴿۳۶﴾
What aileth you? How foolishly ye judge! (36)
أَمْ لَكُمْ كِتَابٌ فِيهِ تَدْرُسُونَ
﴿۳۷﴾
Or have ye a scripture wherein ye learn (37)
إِنَّ لَكُمْ فِيهِ لَمَا تَخَيَّرُونَ
﴿۳۸﴾
That ye shall indeed have all that ye choose? (38)
أَمْ لَكُمْ أَيْمَانٌ عَلَيْنَا بَالِغَةٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ لَمَا تَحْكُمُونَ
﴿۳۹﴾
Or have ye a covenant on oath from Us that reacheth to the Day of Judgment, that yours shall be all that ye ordain? (39)
سَلْهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ بِذَلِكَ زَعِيمٌ
﴿۴۰﴾
Ask them (O Muhammad) which of them will vouch for that! (40)
أَمْ لَهُمْ شُرَكَاءُ فَلْيَأْتُوا بِشُرَكَائِهِمْ إِنْ كَانُوا صَادِقِينَ
﴿۴۱﴾
Or have they other gods? Then let them bring their other gods if they are truthful (41)
يَوْمَ يُكْشَفُ عَنْ سَاقٍ وَيُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى السُّجُودِ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ
﴿۴۲﴾
On the day when it befalleth in earnest, and they are ordered to prostrate themselves but are not able, (42)
خَاشِعَةً أَبْصَارُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ وَقَدْ كَانُوا يُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى السُّجُودِ وَهُمْ سَالِمُونَ
﴿۴۳﴾
With eyes downcast, abasement stupefying them. And they had been summoned to prostrate themselves while they were yet unhurt. (43)
فَذَرْنِي وَمَنْ يُكَذِّبُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
﴿۴۴﴾
Leave Me (to deal) with those who give the lie to this pronouncement. We shall lead them on by steps from whence they know not. (44)
وَأُمْلِي لَهُمْ إِنَّ كَيْدِي مَتِينٌ
﴿۴۵﴾
Yet I bear with them, for lo! My scheme is firm. (45)
أَمْ تَسْأَلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُمْ مِنْ مَغْرَمٍ مُثْقَلُونَ
﴿۴۶﴾
Or dost thou (Muhammad) ask a fee from them so that they are heavily taxed? (46)
أَمْ عِنْدَهُمُ الْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ
﴿۴۷﴾
Or is the Unseen theirs that they can write (thereof)? (47)
فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُنْ كَصَاحِبِ الْحُوتِ إِذْ نَادَى وَهُوَ مَكْظُومٌ
﴿۴۸﴾
But wait thou for thy Lord's decree, and be not like him of the fish, who cried out in despair. (48)
لَوْلَا أَنْ تَدَارَكَهُ نِعْمَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِ لَنُبِذَ بِالْعَرَاءِ وَهُوَ مَذْمُومٌ
﴿۴۹﴾
Had it not been that favour from his Lord had reached him he surely had been cast into the wilderness while he was reprobate. (49)
فَاجْتَبَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَجَعَلَهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
﴿۵۰﴾
But his Lord chose him and placed him among the righteous. (50)
وَإِنْ يَكَادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا الذِّكْرَ وَيَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ لَمَجْنُونٌ
﴿۵۱﴾
And lo! those who disbelieve would fain disconcert thee with their eyes when they hear the Reminder, and they say: Lo! he is indeed mad; (51)
وَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِلْعَالَمِينَ
﴿۵۲﴾
When it is naught else than a Reminder to creation. (52)
Sura 69: AL-HAAQQA (THE REALITY)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
الْحَاقَّةُ
﴿۱﴾
The Reality! (1)
مَا الْحَاقَّةُ
﴿۲﴾
What is the Reality? (2)
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحَاقَّةُ
﴿۳﴾
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the reality is! (3)
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ وَعَادٌ بِالْقَارِعَةِ
﴿۴﴾
(The tribes of) Thamud and A'ad disbelieved in the judgment to come. (4)
فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهْلِكُوا بِالطَّاغِيَةِ
﴿۵﴾
As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the lightning. (5)
وَأَمَّا عَادٌ فَأُهْلِكُوا بِرِيحٍ صَرْصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٍ
﴿۶﴾
And as for A'ad, they were destroyed by a fierce roaring wind, (6)
سَخَّرَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَ لَيَالٍ وَثَمَانِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ حُسُومًا فَتَرَى الْقَوْمَ فِيهَا صَرْعَى كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ خَاوِيَةٍ
﴿۷﴾
Which He imposed on them for seven long nights and eight long days so that thou mightest have seen men lying overthrown, as they were hollow trunks of palm-trees. (7)
فَهَلْ تَرَى لَهُمْ مِنْ بَاقِيَةٍ
﴿۸﴾
Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them? (8)
وَجَاءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَنْ قَبْلَهُ وَالْمُؤْتَفِكَاتُ بِالْخَاطِئَةِ
﴿۹﴾
And Pharaoh and those before him, and the communities that were destroyed, brought error, (9)
فَعَصَوْا رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَهُمْ أَخْذَةً رَابِيَةً
﴿۱۰﴾
And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, therefor did He grip them with a tightening grip. (10)
إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَى الْمَاءُ حَمَلْنَاكُمْ فِي الْجَارِيَةِ
﴿۱۱﴾
Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the ship (11)
لِنَجْعَلَهَا لَكُمْ تَذْكِرَةً وَتَعِيَهَا أُذُنٌ وَاعِيَةٌ
﴿۱۲﴾
That We might make it a memorial for you, and that remembering ears (that heard the story) might remember. (12)
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ نَفْخَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ
﴿۱۳﴾
And when the trumpet shall sound one blast (13)
وَحُمِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَالْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَاحِدَةً
﴿۱۴﴾
And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash, (14)
فَيَوْمَئِذٍ وَقَعَتِ الْوَاقِعَةُ
﴿۱۵﴾
Then, on that day will the Event befall. (15)
وَانْشَقَّتِ السَّمَاءُ فَهِيَ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاهِيَةٌ
﴿۱۶﴾
And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail. (16)
وَالْمَلَكُ عَلَى أَرْجَائِهَا وَيَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَمَانِيَةٌ
﴿۱۷﴾
And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne of thy Lord that day, above them. (17)
يَوْمَئِذٍ تُعْرَضُونَ لَا تَخْفَى مِنْكُمْ خَافِيَةٌ
﴿۱۸﴾
On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden. (18)
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ فَيَقُولُ هَاؤُمُ اقْرَءُوا كِتَابِيَهْ
﴿۱۹﴾
Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book! (19)
إِنِّي ظَنَنْتُ أَنِّي مُلَاقٍ حِسَابِيَهْ
﴿۲۰﴾
Surely I knew that I should have to meet my reckoning. (20)
فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٍ رَاضِيَةٍ
﴿۲۱﴾
Then he will be in blissful state (21)
فِي جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ
﴿۲۲﴾
In a high garden (22)
قُطُوفُهَا دَانِيَةٌ
﴿۲۳﴾
Whereof the clusters are in easy reach. (23)
كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا هَنِيئًا بِمَا أَسْلَفْتُمْ فِي الْأَيَّامِ الْخَالِيَةِ
﴿۲۴﴾
(And it will be said unto those therein): Eat and drink at ease for that which ye sent on before you in past days. (24)
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِشِمَالِهِ فَيَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أُوتَ كِتَابِيَهْ
﴿۲۵﴾
But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say: Oh, would that I had not been given my book (25)
وَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهْ
﴿۲۶﴾
And knew not what my reckoning! (26)
يَا لَيْتَهَا كَانَتِ الْقَاضِيَةَ
﴿۲۷﴾
Oh, would that it had been death! (27)
مَا أَغْنَى عَنِّي مَالِيَهْ
﴿۲۸﴾
My wealth hath not availed me, (28)
هَلَكَ عَنِّي سُلْطَانِيَهْ
﴿۲۹﴾
My power hath gone from me. (29)
خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ
﴿۳۰﴾
(It will be said): Take him and fetter him (30)
ثُمَّ الْجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ
﴿۳۱﴾
And then expose him to hell-fire (31)
ثُمَّ فِي سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعًا فَاسْلُكُوهُ
﴿۳۲﴾
And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits. (32)
إِنَّهُ كَانَ لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ
﴿۳۳﴾
Lo! He used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous, (33)
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَى طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ
﴿۳۴﴾
And urged not on the feeding of the wretched. (34)
فَلَيْسَ لَهُ الْيَوْمَ هَاهُنَا حَمِيمٌ
﴿۳۵﴾
Therefor hath he no lover here this day, (35)
وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِينٍ
﴿۳۶﴾
Nor any food save filth (36)
لَا يَأْكُلُهُ إِلَّا الْخَاطِئُونَ
﴿۳۷﴾
Which none but sinners eat. (37)
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ
﴿۳۸﴾
But nay! I swear by all that ye see (38)
وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
﴿۳۹﴾
And all that ye see not (39)
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
﴿۴۰﴾
That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger. (40)
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ قَلِيلًا مَا تُؤْمِنُونَ
﴿۴۱﴾
It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe! (41)
وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ قَلِيلًا مَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
﴿۴۲﴾
Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember! (42)
تَنْزِيلٌ مِنْ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
﴿۴۳﴾
It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds. (43)
وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ الْأَقَاوِيلِ
﴿۴۴﴾
And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us, (44)
لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِالْيَمِينِ
﴿۴۵﴾
We assuredly had taken him by the right hand (45)
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ الْوَتِينَ
﴿۴۶﴾
And then severed his life-artery, (46)
فَمَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَاجِزِينَ
﴿۴۷﴾
And not one of you could have held Us off from him. (47)
وَإِنَّهُ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
﴿۴۸﴾
And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil). (48)
وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۴۹﴾
And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it). (49)
وَإِنَّهُ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ
﴿۵۰﴾
And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers. (50)
وَإِنَّهُ لَحَقُّ الْيَقِينِ
﴿۵۱﴾
And lo! it is absolute truth. (51)
فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِيمِ
﴿۵۲﴾
So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord. (52)
Sura 70: AL-MAARIJ (THE ASCENDING STAIRWAYS)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ بِعَذَابٍ وَاقِعٍ
﴿۱﴾
A questioner questioned concerning the doom about to fall (1)
لِلْكَافِرِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُ دَافِعٌ
﴿۲﴾
Upon the disbelievers, which none can repel, (2)
مِنَ اللَّهِ ذِي الْمَعَارِجِ
﴿۳﴾
From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways (3)
تَعْرُجُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ إِلَيْهِ فِي يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ
﴿۴﴾
(Whereby) the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years. (4)
فَاصْبِرْ صَبْرًا جَمِيلًا
﴿۵﴾
But be patient (O Muhammad) with a patience fair to see. (5)
إِنَّهُمْ يَرَوْنَهُ بَعِيدًا
﴿۶﴾
Lo! they behold it afar off (6)
وَنَرَاهُ قَرِيبًا
﴿۷﴾
While we behold it nigh: (7)
يَوْمَ تَكُونُ السَّمَاءُ كَالْمُهْلِ
﴿۸﴾
The day when the sky will become as molten copper, (8)
وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ
﴿۹﴾
And the hills become as flakes of wool, (9)
وَلَا يَسْأَلُ حَمِيمٌ حَمِيمًا
﴿۱۰﴾
And no familiar friend will ask a question of his friend (10)
يُبَصَّرُونَهُمْ يَوَدُّ الْمُجْرِمُ لَوْ يَفْتَدِي مِنْ عَذَابِ يَوْمِئِذٍ بِبَنِيهِ
﴿۱۱﴾
Though they will be given sight of them. The guilty man will long to be able to ransom himself from the punishment of that day at the price of his children (11)
وَصَاحِبَتِهِ وَأَخِيهِ
﴿۱۲﴾
And his spouse and his brother (12)
وَفَصِيلَتِهِ الَّتِي تُؤْوِيهِ
﴿۱۳﴾
And his kin that harboured him (13)
وَمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ يُنْجِيهِ
﴿۱۴﴾
And all that are in the earth, if then it might deliver him. (14)
كَلَّا إِنَّهَا لَظَى
﴿۱۵﴾
But nay! for lo! it is the fire of hell (15)
نَزَّاعَةً لِلشَّوَى
﴿۱۶﴾
Eager to roast; (16)
تَدْعُو مَنْ أَدْبَرَ وَتَوَلَّى
﴿۱۷﴾
It calleth him who turned and fled (from truth), (17)
وَجَمَعَ فَأَوْعَى
﴿۱۸﴾
And hoarded (wealth) and withheld it. (18)
إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ خُلِقَ هَلُوعًا
﴿۱۹﴾
Lo! man was created anxious, (19)
إِذَا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ جَزُوعًا
﴿۲۰﴾
Fretful when evil befalleth him (20)
وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ الْخَيْرُ مَنُوعًا
﴿۲۱﴾
And, when good befalleth him, grudging; (21)
إِلَّا الْمُصَلِّينَ
﴿۲۲﴾
Save worshippers. (22)
الَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَى صَلَاتِهِمْ دَائِمُونَ
﴿۲۳﴾
Who are constant at their worship (23)
وَالَّذِينَ فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ مَعْلُومٌ
﴿۲۴﴾
And in whose wealth there is a right acknowledged (24)
لِلسَّائِلِ وَالْمَحْرُومِ
﴿۲۵﴾
For the beggar and the destitute; (25)
وَالَّذِينَ يُصَدِّقُونَ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
﴿۲۶﴾
And those who believe in the Day of Judgment, (26)
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّهِمْ مُشْفِقُونَ
﴿۲۷﴾
And those who are fearful of their Lord's doom - (27)
إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّهِمْ غَيْرُ مَأْمُونٍ
﴿۲۸﴾
Lo! the doom of their Lord is that before which none can feel secure - (28)
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَ
﴿۲۹﴾
And those who preserve their chastity (29)
إِلَّا عَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ
﴿۳۰﴾
Save with their wives and those whom their right hands possess, for thus they are not blameworthy; (30)
فَمَنِ ابْتَغَى وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْعَادُونَ
﴿۳۱﴾
But whoso seeketh more than that, those are they who are transgressors; (31)
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَانَاتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَاعُونَ
﴿۳۲﴾
And those who keep their pledges and their covenant, (32)
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ بِشَهَادَاتِهِمْ قَائِمُونَ
﴿۳۳﴾
And those who stand by their testimony (33)
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَى صَلَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ
﴿۳۴﴾
And those who are attentive at their worship. (34)
أُولَئِكَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ مُكْرَمُونَ
﴿۳۵﴾
These will dwell in Gardens, honoured. (35)
فَمَالِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا قِبَلَكَ مُهْطِعِينَ
﴿۳۶﴾
What aileth those who disbelieve, that they keep staring toward thee (O Muhammad), open-eyed, (36)
عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ عِزِينَ
﴿۳۷﴾
On the right and on the left, in groups? (37)
أَيَطْمَعُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يُدْخَلَ جَنَّةَ نَعِيمٍ
﴿۳۸﴾
Doth every man among them hope to enter the Garden of Delight? (38)
كَلَّا إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُمْ مِمَّا يَعْلَمُونَ
﴿۳۹﴾
Nay, verily. Lo! We created them from what they know. (39)
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِرَبِّ الْمَشَارِقِ وَالْمَغَارِبِ إِنَّا لَقَادِرُونَ
﴿۴۰﴾
But nay! I swear by the Lord of the rising-places and the setting-places of the planets that We verily are Able (40)
عَلَى أَنْ نُبَدِّلَ خَيْرًا مِنْهُمْ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ
﴿۴۱﴾
To replace them by (others) better than them. And we are not to be outrun. (41)
فَذَرْهُمْ يَخُوضُوا وَيَلْعَبُوا حَتَّى يُلَاقُوا يَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ
﴿۴۲﴾
So let them chat and play until they meet their Day which they are promised, (42)
يَوْمَ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ سِرَاعًا كَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَى نُصُبٍ يُوفِضُونَ
﴿۴۳﴾
The day when they come forth from the graves in haste, as racing to a goal, (43)
خَاشِعَةً أَبْصَارُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي كَانُوا يُوعَدُونَ
﴿۴۴﴾
With eyes aghast, abasement stupefying them: Such is the Day which they are promised. (44)
Sura 71: NOOH (NOOH)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَى قَوْمِهِ أَنْ أَنْذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
﴿۱﴾
Lo! We sent Noah unto his people (saying): Warn thy people ere the painful doom come unto them. (1)
قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ
﴿۲﴾
He said: O my people! Lo! I am a plain warner unto you (2)
أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَاتَّقُوهُ وَأَطِيعُونِ
﴿۳﴾
(Bidding you): Serve Allah and keep your duty unto Him and obey me, (3)
يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى إِنَّ أَجَلَ اللَّهِ إِذَا جَاءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
﴿۴﴾
That He may forgive you somewhat of your sins and respite you to an appointed term. Lo! the term of Allah, when it cometh, cannot be delayed, if ye but knew. (4)
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِي لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا
﴿۵﴾
He said: My Lord! Lo! I have called unto my people night and day (5)
فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَائِي إِلَّا فِرَارًا
﴿۶﴾
But all my calling doth but add to their repugnance; (6)
وَإِنِّي كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوا أَصَابِعَهُمْ فِي آذَانِهِمْ وَاسْتَغْشَوْا ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا اسْتِكْبَارًا
﴿۷﴾
And lo! whenever I call unto them that Thou mayst pardon them they thrust their fingers in their ears and cover themselves with their garments and persist (in their refusal) and magnify themselves in pride. (7)
ثُمَّ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا
﴿۸﴾
And lo! I have called unto them aloud, (8)
ثُمَّ إِنِّي أَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًا
﴿۹﴾
And lo! I have made public proclamation unto them, and I have appealed to them in private. (9)
فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ غَفَّارًا
﴿۱۰﴾
And I have said: Seek pardon of your Lord. Lo! He was ever Forgiving. (10)
يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاءَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِدْرَارًا
﴿۱۱﴾
He will let loose the sky for you in plenteous rain, (11)
وَيُمْدِدْكُمْ بِأَمْوَالٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ جَنَّاتٍ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ أَنْهَارًا
﴿۱۲﴾
And will help you with wealth and sons, and will assign unto you Gardens and will assign unto you rivers. (12)
مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُونَ لِلَّهِ وَقَارًا
﴿۱۳﴾
What aileth you that ye hope not toward Allah for dignity (13)
وَقَدْ خَلَقَكُمْ أَطْوَارًا
﴿۱۴﴾
When He created you by (divers) stages? (14)
أَلَمْ تَرَوْا كَيْفَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا
﴿۱۵﴾
See ye not how Allah hath created seven heavens in harmony, (15)
وَجَعَلَ الْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا
﴿۱۶﴾
And hath made the moon a light therein, and made the sun a lamp? (16)
وَاللَّهُ أَنْبَتَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ نَبَاتًا
﴿۱۷﴾
And Allah hath caused you to grow as a growth from the earth, (17)
ثُمَّ يُعِيدُكُمْ فِيهَا وَيُخْرِجُكُمْ إِخْرَاجًا
﴿۱۸﴾
And afterward He maketh you return thereto, and He will bring you forth again, a (new) forthbringing. (18)
وَاللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ بِسَاطًا
﴿۱۹﴾
And Allah hath made the earth a wide expanse for you (19)
لِتَسْلُكُوا مِنْهَا سُبُلًا فِجَاجًا
﴿۲۰﴾
That ye may thread the valley-ways thereof. (20)
قَالَ نُوحٌ رَبِّ إِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِي وَاتَّبَعُوا مَنْ لَمْ يَزِدْهُ مَالُهُ وَوَلَدُهُ إِلَّا خَسَارًا
﴿۲۱﴾
Noah said: My Lord! Lo! they have disobeyed me and followed one whose wealth and children increase him in naught save ruin; (21)
وَمَكَرُوا مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا
﴿۲۲﴾
And they have plotted a mighty plot, (22)
وَقَالُوا لَا تَذَرُنَّ آلِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا
﴿۲۳﴾
And they have said: Forsake not your gods. Forsake not Wadd, nor Suwa', nor Yaghuth and Ya'uq and Nasr. (23)
وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا كَثِيرًا وَلَا تَزِدِ الظَّالِمِينَ إِلَّا ضَلَالًا
﴿۲۴﴾
And they have led many astray, and Thou increasest the wrong-doers in naught save error. (24)
مِمَّا خَطِيئَاتِهِمْ أُغْرِقُوا فَأُدْخِلُوا نَارًا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا لَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَنْصَارًا
﴿۲۵﴾
Because of their sins they were drowned, then made to enter a Fire. And they found they had no helpers in place of Allah. (25)
وَقَالَ نُوحٌ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ دَيَّارًا
﴿۲۶﴾
And Noah said: My Lord! Leave not one of the disbelievers in the land. (26)
إِنَّكَ إِنْ تَذَرْهُمْ يُضِلُّوا عِبَادَكَ وَلَا يَلِدُوا إِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا
﴿۲۷﴾
If Thou shouldst leave them, they will mislead Thy slaves and will beget none save lewd ingrates. (27)
رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتِيَ مُؤْمِنًا وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظَّالِمِينَ إِلَّا تَبَارًا
﴿۲۸﴾
My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who entereth my house believing, and believing men and believing women, and increase not the wrong-doers in aught save ruin. (28)
Sura 72: AL-JINN (THE JINN)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
قُلْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّهُ اسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْآنًا عَجَبًا
﴿۱﴾
Say (O Muhammad): It is revealed unto me that a company of the Jinn gave ear, and they said: Lo! we have heard a marvellous Qur'an, (1)
يَهْدِي إِلَى الرُّشْدِ فَآمَنَّا بِهِ وَلَنْ نُشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنَا أَحَدًا
﴿۲﴾
Which guideth unto righteousness, so we believe in it and we ascribe no partner unto our Lord. (2)
وَأَنَّهُ تَعَالَى جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا اتَّخَذَ صَاحِبَةً وَلَا وَلَدًا
﴿۳﴾
And (we believe) that He - exalted be the glory of our Lord! - hath taken neither wife nor son, (3)
وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ سَفِيهُنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ شَطَطًا
﴿۴﴾
And that the foolish one among us used to speak concerning Allah an atrocious lie. (4)
وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ تَقُولَ الْإِنْسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا
﴿۵﴾
And lo! we had supposed that humankind and jinn would not speak a lie concerning Allah - (5)
وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْإِنْسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا
﴿۶﴾
And indeed (O Muhammad) individuals of humankind used to invoke the protection of individuals of the jinn, so that they increased them in revolt against Allah); (6)
وَأَنَّهُمْ ظَنُّوا كَمَا ظَنَنْتُمْ أَنْ لَنْ يَبْعَثَ اللَّهُ أَحَدًا
﴿۷﴾
And indeed they supposed, even as ye suppose, that Allah would not raise anyone (from the dead) - (7)
وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَاءَ فَوَجَدْنَاهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا
﴿۸﴾
And (the Jinn who had listened to the Qur'an said): We had sought the heaven but had found it filled with strong warders and meteors. (8)
وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ فَمَنْ يَسْتَمِعِ الْآنَ يَجِدْ لَهُ شِهَابًا رَصَدًا
﴿۹﴾
And we used to sit on places (high) therein to listen. But he who listeneth now findeth a flame in wait for him; (9)
وَأَنَّا لَا نَدْرِي أَشَرٌّ أُرِيدَ بِمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَمْ أَرَادَ بِهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ رَشَدًا
﴿۱۰﴾
And we know not whether harm is boded unto all who are in the earth, or whether their Lord intendeth guidance for them. (10)
وَأَنَّا مِنَّا الصَّالِحُونَ وَمِنَّا دُونَ ذَلِكَ كُنَّا طَرَائِقَ قِدَدًا
﴿۱۱﴾
And among us there are righteous folk and among us there are far from that. We are sects having different rules. (11)
وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ نُعْجِزَ اللَّهَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَنْ نُعْجِزَهُ هَرَبًا
﴿۱۲﴾
And we know that we cannot escape from Allah in the earth, nor can we escape by flight. (12)
وَأَنَّا لَمَّا سَمِعْنَا الْهُدَى آمَنَّا بِهِ فَمَنْ يُؤْمِنْ بِرَبِّهِ فَلَا يَخَافُ بَخْسًا وَلَا رَهَقًا
﴿۱۳﴾
And when we heard the guidance, we believed therein, and whoso believeth in his Lord, he feareth neither loss nor oppression. (13)
وَأَنَّا مِنَّا الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَمِنَّا الْقَاسِطُونَ فَمَنْ أَسْلَمَ فَأُولَئِكَ تَحَرَّوْا رَشَدًا
﴿۱۴﴾
And there are among us some who have surrendered (to Allah) and there are among us some who are unjust. And whoso hath surrendered to Allah, such have taken the right path purposefully. (14)
وَأَمَّا الْقَاسِطُونَ فَكَانُوا لِجَهَنَّمَ حَطَبًا
﴿۱۵﴾
And as for those who are unjust, they are firewood for hell. (15)
وَأَنْ لَوِ اسْتَقَامُوا عَلَى الطَّرِيقَةِ لَأَسْقَيْنَاهُمْ مَاءً غَدَقًا
﴿۱۶﴾
If they (the idolaters) tread the right path, We shall give them to drink of water in abundance (16)
لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَمَنْ يُعْرِضْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِ يَسْلُكْهُ عَذَابًا صَعَدًا
﴿۱۷﴾
That We may test them thereby, and whoso turneth away from the remembrance of his Lord; He will thrust him into ever-growing torment. (17)
وَأَنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلَا تَدْعُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ أَحَدًا
﴿۱۸﴾
And the places of worship are only for Allah, so pray not unto anyone along with Allah. (18)
وَأَنَّهُ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَدْعُوهُ كَادُوا يَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِ لِبَدًا
﴿۱۹﴾
And when the slave of Allah stood up in prayer to Him, they crowded on him, almost stifling. (19)
قُلْ إِنَّمَا أَدْعُو رَبِّي وَلَا أُشْرِكُ بِهِ أَحَدًا
﴿۲۰﴾
Say (unto them, O Muhammad): I pray unto Allah only, and ascribe unto Him no partner. (20)
قُلْ إِنِّي لَا أَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّا وَلَا رَشَدًا
﴿۲۱﴾
Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you. (21)
قُلْ إِنِّي لَنْ يُجِيرَنِي مِنَ اللَّهِ أَحَدٌ وَلَنْ أَجِدَ مِنْ دُونِهِ مُلْتَحَدًا
﴿۲۲﴾
Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge beside Him (22)
إِلَّا بَلَاغًا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَرِسَالَاتِهِ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَإِنَّ لَهُ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا
﴿۲۳﴾
(Mine is) but conveyance (of the Truth) from Allah, and His messages; and whoso disobeyeth Allah and His messenger, lo! his is fire of hell, wherein such dwell for ever. (23)
حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ أَضْعَفُ نَاصِرًا وَأَقَلُّ عَدَدًا
﴿۲۴﴾
Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude. (24)
قُلْ إِنْ أَدْرِي أَقَرِيبٌ مَا تُوعَدُونَ أَمْ يَجْعَلُ لَهُ رَبِّي أَمَدًا
﴿۲۵﴾
Say (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): I know not whether that which ye are promised is nigh, or if my Lord hath set a distant term for it. (25)
عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ فَلَا يُظْهِرُ عَلَى غَيْبِهِ أَحَدًا
﴿۲۶﴾
(He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret, (26)
إِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضَى مِنْ رَسُولٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْلُكُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ رَصَدًا
﴿۲۷﴾
Save unto every messenger whom He hath chosen, and then He maketh a guard to go before him and a guard behind him (27)
لِيَعْلَمَ أَنْ قَدْ أَبْلَغُوا رِسَالَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ وَأَحْصَى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدَدًا
﴿۲۸﴾
That He may know that they have indeed conveyed the messages of their Lord. He surroundeth all their doings, and He keepeth count of all things. (28)
Sura 73: AL-MUZZAMMIL (THE ENSHROUDED ONE)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُزَّمِّلُ
﴿۱﴾
O thou wrapped up in thy raiment! (1)
قُمِ اللَّيْلَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
﴿۲﴾
Keep vigil the night long, save a little - (2)
نِصْفَهُ أَوِ انْقُصْ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا
﴿۳﴾
A half thereof, or abate a little thereof (3)
أَوْ زِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْآنَ تَرْتِيلًا
﴿۴﴾
Or add (a little) thereto - and chant the Qur'an in measure, (4)
إِنَّا سَنُلْقِي عَلَيْكَ قَوْلًا ثَقِيلًا
﴿۵﴾
For we shall charge thee with a word of weight. (5)
إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ اللَّيْلِ هِيَ أَشَدُّ وَطْئًا وَأَقْوَمُ قِيلًا
﴿۶﴾
Lo! the vigil of the night is (a time) when impression is more keen and speech more certain. (6)
إِنَّ لَكَ فِي النَّهَارِ سَبْحًا طَوِيلًا
﴿۷﴾
Lo! thou hast by day a chain of business. (7)
وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلًا
﴿۸﴾
So remember the name of thy Lord and devote thyself with a complete devotion - (8)
رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَاتَّخِذْهُ وَكِيلًا
﴿۹﴾
Lord of the East and the West; there is no Allah save Him; so choose thou Him alone for thy defender - (9)
وَاصْبِرْ عَلَى مَا يَقُولُونَ وَاهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْرًا جَمِيلًا
﴿۱۰﴾
And bear with patience what they utter, and part from them with a fair leave-taking. (10)
وَذَرْنِي وَالْمُكَذِّبِينَ أُولِي النَّعْمَةِ وَمَهِّلْهُمْ قَلِيلًا
﴿۱۱﴾
Leave Me to deal with the deniers, lords of ease and comfort (in this life); and do thou respite them awhile. (11)
إِنَّ لَدَيْنَا أَنْكَالًا وَجَحِيمًا
﴿۱۲﴾
Lo! with Us are heavy fetters and a raging fire, (12)
وَطَعَامًا ذَا غُصَّةٍ وَعَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
﴿۱۳﴾
And food which choketh (the partaker), and a painful doom (13)
يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ الْأَرْضُ وَالْجِبَالُ وَكَانَتِ الْجِبَالُ كَثِيبًا مَهِيلًا
﴿۱۴﴾
On the day when the earth and the hills rock, and the hills become a heap of running sand. (14)
إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولًا شَاهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًا
﴿۱۵﴾
Lo! We have sent unto you a messenger as witness against you, even as We sent unto Pharaoh a messenger. (15)
فَعَصَى فِرْعَوْنُ الرَّسُولَ فَأَخَذْنَاهُ أَخْذًا وَبِيلًا
﴿۱۶﴾
But Pharaoh rebelled against the messenger, whereupon We seized him with no gentle grip. (16)
فَكَيْفَ تَتَّقُونَ إِنْ كَفَرْتُمْ يَوْمًا يَجْعَلُ الْوِلْدَانَ شِيبًا
﴿۱۷﴾
Then how, if ye disbelieve, will ye protect yourselves upon the day which will turn children grey, (17)
السَّمَاءُ مُنْفَطِرٌ بِهِ كَانَ وَعْدُهُ مَفْعُولًا
﴿۱۸﴾
The very heaven being then rent asunder. His promise is to be fulfilled. (18)
إِنَّ هَذِهِ تَذْكِرَةٌ فَمَنْ شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ سَبِيلًا
﴿۱۹﴾
Lo! This is a Reminder. Let him who will, then, choose a way unto his Lord. (19)
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَقُومُ أَدْنَى مِنْ ثُلُثَيِ اللَّيْلِ وَنِصْفَهُ وَثُلُثَهُ وَطَائِفَةٌ مِنَ الَّذِينَ مَعَكَ وَاللَّهُ يُقَدِّرُ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ عَلِمَ أَنْ لَنْ تُحْصُوهُ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ عَلِمَ أَنْ سَيَكُونُ مِنْكُمْ مَرْضَى وَآخَرُونَ يَضْرِبُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ يَبْتَغُونَ مِنْ فَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَآخَرُونَ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنْهُ وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَأَقْرِضُوا اللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ هُوَ خَيْرًا وَأَعْظَمَ أَجْرًا وَاسْتَغْفِرُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ
﴿۲۰﴾
Lo! thy Lord knoweth how thou keepest vigil sometimes nearly two-thirds of the night, or (sometimes) half or a third thereof, as do a party of those with thee. Allah measureth the night and the day. He knoweth that ye count it not, and turneth unto you in mercy. Recite, then, of the Qur'an that which is easy for you. He knoweth that there are sick folk among you, while others travel in the land in search of Allah's bounty, and others (still) are fighting for the cause of Allah. So recite of it that which is easy (for you), and establish worship and pay the poor-due, and (so) lend unto Allah a goodly loan. Whatsoever good ye send before you for your souls, ye will find it with Allah, better and greater in the recompense. And seek forgiveness of Allah. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (20)
Sura 74: AL-MUDDATHTHIR (THE CLOAKED ONE)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ
﴿۱﴾
O thou enveloped in thy cloak, (1)
قُمْ فَأَنْذِرْ
﴿۲﴾
Arise and warn! (2)
وَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْ
﴿۳﴾
Thy Lord magnify, (3)
وَثِيَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ
﴿۴﴾
Thy raiment purify, (4)
وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ
﴿۵﴾
Pollution shun! (5)
وَلَا تَمْنُنْ تَسْتَكْثِرُ
﴿۶﴾
And show not favour, seeking wordly gain! (6)
وَلِرَبِّكَ فَاصْبِرْ
﴿۷﴾
For the sake of thy Lord, be patient! (7)
فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِي النَّاقُورِ
﴿۸﴾
For when the trumpet shall sound, (8)
فَذَلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌ
﴿۹﴾
Surely that day will be a day of anguish, (9)
عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ غَيْرُ يَسِيرٍ
﴿۱۰﴾
Not of ease, for disbelievers. (10)
ذَرْنِي وَمَنْ خَلَقْتُ وَحِيدًا
﴿۱۱﴾
Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created lonely, (11)
وَجَعَلْتُ لَهُ مَالًا مَمْدُودًا
﴿۱۲﴾
And then bestowed upon him ample means, (12)
وَبَنِينَ شُهُودًا
﴿۱۳﴾
And sons abiding in his presence (13)
وَمَهَّدْتُ لَهُ تَمْهِيدًا
﴿۱۴﴾
And made (life) smooth for him. (14)
ثُمَّ يَطْمَعُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ
﴿۱۵﴾
Yet he desireth that I should give more. (15)
كَلَّا إِنَّهُ كَانَ لِآيَاتِنَا عَنِيدًا
﴿۱۶﴾
Nay! For lo! he hath been stubborn to Our revelations. (16)
سَأُرْهِقُهُ صَعُودًا
﴿۱۷﴾
On him I shall impose a fearful doom. (17)
إِنَّهُ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ
﴿۱۸﴾
For lo! he did consider; then he planned - (18)
فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
﴿۱۹﴾
(Self-)destroyed is he, how he planned! (19)
ثُمَّ قُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
﴿۲۰﴾
Again (self-)destroyed is he, how he planned! - (20)
ثُمَّ نَظَرَ
﴿۲۱﴾
Then looked he, (21)
ثُمَّ عَبَسَ وَبَسَرَ
﴿۲۲﴾
Then frowned he and showed displeasure. (22)
ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ
﴿۲۳﴾
Then turned he away in pride (23)
فَقَالَ إِنْ هَذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ يُؤْثَرُ
﴿۲۴﴾
And said: This is naught else than magic from of old; (24)
إِنْ هَذَا إِلَّا قَوْلُ الْبَشَرِ
﴿۲۵﴾
This is naught else than speech of mortal man. (25)
سَأُصْلِيهِ سَقَرَ
﴿۲۶﴾
Him shall I fling unto the burning. (26)
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سَقَرُ
﴿۲۷﴾
- Ah, what will convey unto thee what that burning is! - (27)
لَا تُبْقِي وَلَا تَذَرُ
﴿۲۸﴾
It leaveth naught; it spareth naught (28)
لَوَّاحَةٌ لِلْبَشَرِ
﴿۲۹﴾
It shrivelleth the man. (29)
عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ
﴿۳۰﴾
Above it are nineteen. (30)
وَمَا جَعَلْنَا أَصْحَابَ النَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَائِكَةً وَمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا فِتْنَةً لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَيَزْدَادَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِيمَانًا وَلَا يَرْتَابَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَلِيَقُولَ الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَضٌ وَالْكَافِرُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَذَا مَثَلًا كَذَلِكَ يُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَ وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَى لِلْبَشَرِ
﴿۳۱﴾
We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling-block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals. (31)
كَلَّا وَالْقَمَرِ
﴿۳۲﴾
Nay, by the Moon (32)
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذْ أَدْبَرَ
﴿۳۳﴾
And the night when it withdraweth (33)
وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا أَسْفَرَ
﴿۳۴﴾
And the dawn when it shineth forth, (34)
إِنَّهَا لَإِحْدَى الْكُبَرِ
﴿۳۵﴾
Lo! this is one of the greatest (portents) (35)
نَذِيرًا لِلْبَشَرِ
﴿۳۶﴾
As a warning unto men, (36)
لِمَنْ شَاءَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ
﴿۳۷﴾
Unto him of you who will advance or hang back. (37)
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَةٌ
﴿۳۸﴾
Every soul is a pledge for its own deeds; (38)
إِلَّا أَصْحَابَ الْيَمِينِ
﴿۳۹﴾
Save those who will stand on the right hand. (39)
فِي جَنَّاتٍ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ
﴿۴۰﴾
In gardens they will ask one another (40)
عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ
﴿۴۱﴾
Concerning the guilty: (41)
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِي سَقَرَ
﴿۴۲﴾
What hath brought you to this burning? (42)
قَالُوا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ
﴿۴۳﴾
They will answer: We were not of those who prayed (43)
وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ
﴿۴۴﴾
Nor did we feed the wretched. (44)
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ
﴿۴۵﴾
We used to wade (in vain dispute) with (all) waders, (45)
وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
﴿۴۶﴾
And we used to deny the Day of Judgment, (46)
حَتَّى أَتَانَا الْيَقِينُ
﴿۴۷﴾
Till the Inevitable came unto us. (47)
فَمَا تَنْفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
﴿۴۸﴾
The mediation of no mediators will avail them then. (48)
فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ التَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِينَ
﴿۴۹﴾
Why now turn they away from the Admonishment, (49)
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُسْتَنْفِرَةٌ
﴿۵۰﴾
As they were frightened asses (50)
فَرَّتْ مِنْ قَسْوَرَةٍ
﴿۵۱﴾
Fleeing from a lion? (51)
بَلْ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يُؤْتَى صُحُفًا مُنَشَّرَةً
﴿۵۲﴾
Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah). (52)
كَلَّا بَلْ لَا يَخَافُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
﴿۵۳﴾
Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter. (53)
كَلَّا إِنَّهُ تَذْكِرَةٌ
﴿۵۴﴾
Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment. (54)
فَمَنْ شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ
﴿۵۵﴾
So whosoever will may heed. (55)
وَمَا يَذْكُرُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ هُوَ أَهْلُ التَّقْوَى وَأَهْلُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
﴿۵۶﴾
And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy. (56)
Sura 75: AL-QIYAMA (THE RISING OF THE DEAD)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
لَا أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
﴿۱﴾
Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection; (1)
وَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالنَّفْسِ اللَّوَّامَةِ
﴿۲﴾
Nay, I swear by the accusing soul (that this Scripture is true). (2)
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَلَّنْ نَجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ
﴿۳﴾
Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones? (3)
بَلَى قَادِرِينَ عَلَى أَنْ نُسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ
﴿۴﴾
Yea, verily. We are Able to restore his very fingers! (4)
بَلْ يُرِيدُ الْإِنْسَانُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُ
﴿۵﴾
But man would fain deny what is before him. (5)
يَسْأَلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ
﴿۶﴾
He asketh: When will be this Day of Resurrection? (6)
فَإِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ
﴿۷﴾
But when sight is confounded (7)
وَخَسَفَ الْقَمَرُ
﴿۸﴾
And the moon is eclipsed (8)
وَجُمِعَ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ
﴿۹﴾
And sun and moon are united, (9)
يَقُولُ الْإِنْسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ
﴿۱۰﴾
On that day man will cry: Whither to flee! (10)
كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ
﴿۱۱﴾
Alas! No refuge! (11)
إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ
﴿۱۲﴾
Unto thy Lord is the recourse that day. (12)
يُنَبَّأُ الْإِنْسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ
﴿۱۳﴾
On that day man is told the tale of that which he hath sent before and left behind. (13)
بَلِ الْإِنْسَانُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بَصِيرَةٌ
﴿۱۴﴾
Oh, but man is a telling witness against himself, (14)
وَلَوْ أَلْقَى مَعَاذِيرَهُ
﴿۱۵﴾
Although he tender his excuses. (15)
لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ
﴿۱۶﴾
Stir not thy tongue herewith to hasten it. (16)
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ
﴿۱۷﴾
Lo! upon Us (resteth) the putting together thereof and the reading thereof. (17)
فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ
﴿۱۸﴾
And when We read it, follow thou the reading; (18)
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ
﴿۱۹﴾
Then lo! upon Us (resteth) the explanation thereof. (19)
كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ
﴿۲۰﴾
Nay, but ye do love the fleeting Now (20)
وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
﴿۲۱﴾
And neglect the Hereafter. (21)
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَاضِرَةٌ
﴿۲۲﴾
That day will faces be resplendent, (22)
إِلَى رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ
﴿۲۳﴾
Looking toward their Lord; (23)
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ
﴿۲۴﴾
And that day will other faces be despondent, (24)
تَظُنُّ أَنْ يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ
﴿۲۵﴾
Thou wilt know that some great disaster is about to fall on them. (25)
كَلَّا إِذَا بَلَغَتِ التَّرَاقِيَ
﴿۲۶﴾
Nay, but when the life cometh up to the throat (26)
وَقِيلَ مَنْ رَاقٍ
﴿۲۷﴾
And men say: Where is the wizard (who can save him now)? (27)
وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ
﴿۲۸﴾
And he knoweth that it is the parting; (28)
وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ
﴿۲۹﴾
And agony is heaped on agony; (29)
إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ
﴿۳۰﴾
Unto thy Lord that day will be the driving. (30)
فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّى
﴿۳۱﴾
For he neither trusted, nor prayed. (31)
وَلَكِنْ كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّى
﴿۳۲﴾
But he denied and flouted. (32)
ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّى
﴿۳۳﴾
Then went he to his folk with glee. (33)
أَوْلَى لَكَ فَأَوْلَى
﴿۳۴﴾
Nearer unto thee and nearer, (34)
ثُمَّ أَوْلَى لَكَ فَأَوْلَى
﴿۳۵﴾
Again nearer unto thee and nearer (is the doom). (35)
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنْ يُتْرَكَ سُدًى
﴿۳۶﴾
Thinketh man that he is to be left aimless? (36)
أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِنْ مَنِيٍّ يُمْنَى
﴿۳۷﴾
Was he not a drop of fluid which gushed forth? (37)
ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّى
﴿۳۸﴾
Then he became a clot; then (Allah) shaped and fashioned (38)
فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَى
﴿۳۹﴾
And made of him a pair, the male and female. (39)
أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَى أَنْ يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَى
﴿۴۰﴾
Is not He (Who doeth so) Able to bring the dead to life? (40)
Sura 76: AL-INSAN (MAN)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
هَلْ أَتَى عَلَى الْإِنْسَانِ حِينٌ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْئًا مَذْكُورًا
﴿۱﴾
Hath there come upon man (ever) any period of time in which he was a thing unremembered? (1)
إِنَّا خَلَقْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ أَمْشَاجٍ نَبْتَلِيهِ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا
﴿۲﴾
Lo! We create man from a drop of thickened fluid to test him; so We make him hearing, knowing. (2)
إِنَّا هَدَيْنَاهُ السَّبِيلَ إِمَّا شَاكِرًا وَإِمَّا كَفُورًا
﴿۳﴾
Lo! We have shown him the way, whether he be grateful or disbelieving. (3)
إِنَّا أَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَافِرِينَ سَلَاسِلَ وَأَغْلَالًا وَسَعِيرًا
﴿۴﴾
Lo! We have prepared for disbelievers manacles and carcans and a raging fire. (4)
إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ يَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ كَأْسٍ كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا كَافُورًا
﴿۵﴾
Lo! the righteous shall drink of a cup whereof the mixture is of Kafur, (5)
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا عِبَادُ اللَّهِ يُفَجِّرُونَهَا تَفْجِيرًا
﴿۶﴾
A spring wherefrom the slaves of Allah drink, making it gush forth abundantly, (6)
يُوفُونَ بِالنَّذْرِ وَيَخَافُونَ يَوْمًا كَانَ شَرُّهُ مُسْتَطِيرًا
﴿۷﴾
(Because) they perform the vow and fear a day whereof the evil is wide-spreading, (7)
وَيُطْعِمُونَ الطَّعَامَ عَلَى حُبِّهِ مِسْكِينًا وَيَتِيمًا وَأَسِيرًا
﴿۸﴾
And feed with food the needy wretch, the orphan and the prisoner, for love of Him, (8)
إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ لَا نُرِيدُ مِنْكُمْ جَزَاءً وَلَا شُكُورًا
﴿۹﴾
(Saying): We feed you, for the sake of Allah only. We wish for no reward nor thanks from you; (9)
إِنَّا نَخَافُ مِنْ رَبِّنَا يَوْمًا عَبُوسًا قَمْطَرِيرًا
﴿۱۰﴾
Lo! we fear from our Lord a day of frowning and of fate. (10)
فَوَقَاهُمُ اللَّهُ شَرَّ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ وَلَقَّاهُمْ نَضْرَةً وَسُرُورًا
﴿۱۱﴾
Therefor Allah hath warded off from them the evil of that day, and hath made them find brightness and joy; (11)
وَجَزَاهُمْ بِمَا صَبَرُوا جَنَّةً وَحَرِيرًا
﴿۱۲﴾
And hath awarded them for all that they endured, a Garden and silk attire; (12)
مُتَّكِئِينَ فِيهَا عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ لَا يَرَوْنَ فِيهَا شَمْسًا وَلَا زَمْهَرِيرًا
﴿۱۳﴾
Reclining therein upon couches, they will find there neither (heat of) a sun nor bitter cold. (13)
وَدَانِيَةً عَلَيْهِمْ ظِلَالُهَا وَذُلِّلَتْ قُطُوفُهَا تَذْلِيلًا
﴿۱۴﴾
The shade thereof is close upon them and the clustered fruits thereof bow down. (14)
وَيُطَافُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِآنِيَةٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَأَكْوَابٍ كَانَتْ قَوَارِيرَا
﴿۱۵﴾
Goblets of silver are brought round for them, and beakers (as) of glass (15)
قَوَارِيرَ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ قَدَّرُوهَا تَقْدِيرًا
﴿۱۶﴾
(Bright as) glass but (made) of silver, which they (themselves) have measured to the measure (of their deeds). (16)
وَيُسْقَوْنَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا زَنْجَبِيلًا
﴿۱۷﴾
There are they watered with a cup whereof the mixture is of Zanjabil, (17)
عَيْنًا فِيهَا تُسَمَّى سَلْسَبِيلًا
﴿۱۸﴾
(The water of) a spring therein, named Salsabil. (18)
وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَانٌ مُخَلَّدُونَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ حَسِبْتَهُمْ لُؤْلُؤًا مَنْثُورًا
﴿۱۹﴾
There wait on them immortal youths, whom, when thou seest, thou wouldst take for scattered pearls. (19)
وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ثَمَّ رَأَيْتَ نَعِيمًا وَمُلْكًا كَبِيرًا
﴿۲۰﴾
When thou seest, thou wilt see there bliss and high estate. (20)
عَالِيَهُمْ ثِيَابُ سُنْدُسٍ خُضْرٌ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٌ وَحُلُّوا أَسَاوِرَ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَسَقَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ شَرَابًا طَهُورًا
﴿۲۱﴾
Their raiment will be fine green silk and gold embroidery. Bracelets of silver will they wear. Their Lord will slake their thirst with a pure drink. (21)
إِنَّ هَذَا كَانَ لَكُمْ جَزَاءً وَكَانَ سَعْيُكُمْ مَشْكُورًا
﴿۲۲﴾
(And it will be said unto them): Lo! this is a reward for you. Your endeavour (upon earth) hath found acceptance. (22)
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ الْقُرْآنَ تَنْزِيلًا
﴿۲۳﴾
Lo! We, even We, have revealed unto thee the Qur'an, a revelation; (23)
فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تُطِعْ مِنْهُمْ آثِمًا أَوْ كَفُورًا
﴿۲۴﴾
So submit patiently to thy Lord's command, and obey not of them any guilty one or disbeliever. (24)
وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا
﴿۲۵﴾
Remember the name of thy Lord at morn and evening. (25)
وَمِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَاسْجُدْ لَهُ وَسَبِّحْهُ لَيْلًا طَوِيلًا
﴿۲۶﴾
And worship Him (a portion) of the night. And glorify Him through the livelong night. (26)
إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ يُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ وَيَذَرُونَ وَرَاءَهُمْ يَوْمًا ثَقِيلًا
﴿۲۷﴾
Lo! these love fleeting life, and put behind them (the remembrance of) a grievous day. (27)
نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاهُمْ وَشَدَدْنَا أَسْرَهُمْ وَإِذَا شِئْنَا بَدَّلْنَا أَمْثَالَهُمْ تَبْدِيلًا
﴿۲۸﴾
We, even We, created them, and strengthened their frame. And when We will, We can replace them, bringing others like them in their stead. (28)
إِنَّ هَذِهِ تَذْكِرَةٌ فَمَنْ شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ سَبِيلًا
﴿۲۹﴾
Lo! this is an Admonishment, that whosoever will may choose a way unto his Lord. (29)
وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا
﴿۳۰﴾
Yet ye will not, unless Allah willeth. Lo! Allah is Knower, Wise. (30)
يُدْخِلُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ فِي رَحْمَتِهِ وَالظَّالِمِينَ أَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
﴿۳۱﴾
He maketh whom He will to enter His mercy, and for evil-doers hath prepared a painful doom. (31)
Sura 77: AL-MURSALAT (THE EMISSARIES)
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
وَالْمُرْسَلَاتِ عُرْفًا
﴿۱﴾
By the emissary winds, (sent) one after another (1)
فَالْعَاصِفَاتِ عَصْفًا
﴿۲﴾
By the raging hurricanes, (2)
وَالنَّاشِرَاتِ نَشْرًا
﴿۳﴾
By those which cause earth's vegetation to revive; (3)
فَالْفَارِقَاتِ فَرْقًا
﴿۴﴾
By those who winnow with a winnowing, (4)
فَالْمُلْقِيَاتِ ذِكْرًا
﴿۵﴾
By those who bring down the Reminder, (5)
عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا
﴿۶﴾
To excuse or to warn, (6)
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَاقِعٌ
﴿۷﴾
Surely that which ye are promised will befall. (7)
فَإِذَا النُّجُومُ طُمِسَتْ
﴿۸﴾
So when the stars are put out, (8)
وَإِذَا السَّمَاءُ فُرِجَتْ
﴿۹﴾
And when the sky is riven asunder, (9)
وَإِذَا الْجِبَالُ نُسِفَتْ
﴿۱۰﴾
And when the mountains are blown away, (10)
وَإِذَا الرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ
﴿۱۱﴾
And when the messengers are brought unto their time appointed - (11)
لِأَيِّ يَوْمٍ أُجِّلَتْ
﴿۱۲﴾
For what day is the time appointed? (12)
لِيَوْمِ الْفَصْلِ
﴿۱۳﴾
For the Day of Decision. (13)
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ
﴿۱۴﴾
And what will convey unto thee what the Day of Decision is! - (14)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۱۵﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (15)
أَلَمْ نُهْلِكِ الْأَوَّلِينَ
﴿۱۶﴾
Destroyed We not the former folk, (16)
ثُمَّ نُتْبِعُهُمُ الْآخِرِينَ
﴿۱۷﴾
Then caused the latter folk to follow after? (17)
كَذَلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِالْمُجْرِمِينَ
﴿۱۸﴾
Thus deal We ever with the guilty. (18)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۱۹﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (19)
أَلَمْ نَخْلُقْكُمْ مِنْ مَاءٍ مَهِينٍ
﴿۲۰﴾
Did We not create you from a base fluid (20)
فَجَعَلْنَاهُ فِي قَرَارٍ مَكِينٍ
﴿۲۱﴾
Which We laid up in a safe abode (21)
إِلَى قَدَرٍ مَعْلُومٍ
﴿۲۲﴾
For a known term? (22)
فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ الْقَادِرُونَ
﴿۲۳﴾
Thus We arranged. How excellent is Our arranging! (23)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۲۴﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (24)
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا
﴿۲۵﴾
Have We not made the earth a receptacle (25)
أَحْيَاءً وَأَمْوَاتًا
﴿۲۶﴾
Both for the living and the dead, (26)
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ شَامِخَاتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَاكُمْ مَاءً فُرَاتًا
﴿۲۷﴾
And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein? (27)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۲۸﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (28)
انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى مَا كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ
﴿۲۹﴾
(It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny; (29)
انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى ظِلٍّ ذِي ثَلَاثِ شُعَبٍ
﴿۳۰﴾
Depart unto the shadow falling threefold, (30)
لَا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِي مِنَ اللَّهَبِ
﴿۳۱﴾
(Which yet is) no relief nor shelter from the flame. (31)
إِنَّهَا تَرْمِي بِشَرَرٍ كَالْقَصْرِ
﴿۳۲﴾
Lo! it throweth up sparks like the castles, (32)
كَأَنَّهُ جِمَالَتٌ صُفْرٌ
﴿۳۳﴾
(Or) as it might be camels of bright yellow hue. (33)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۳۴﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (34)
هَذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنْطِقُونَ
﴿۳۵﴾
This is a day wherein they speak not, (35)
وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ
﴿۳۶﴾
Nor are they suffered to put forth excuses. (36)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۳۷﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (37)
هَذَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ جَمَعْنَاكُمْ وَالْأَوَّلِينَ
﴿۳۸﴾
This is the Day of Decision, We have brought you and the men of old together. (38)
فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ
﴿۳۹﴾
If now ye have any wit, outwit Me. (39)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۴۰﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (40)
إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي ظِلَالٍ وَعُيُونٍ
﴿۴۱﴾
Lo! those who kept their duty are amid shade and fountains, (41)
وَفَوَاكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ
﴿۴۲﴾
And fruits such as they desire. (42)
كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا هَنِيئًا بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
﴿۴۳﴾
(Unto them it is said:) Eat, drink and welcome, O ye blessed, in return for what ye did. (43)
إِنَّا كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ
﴿۴۴﴾
Thus do We reward the good. (44)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۴۵﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (45)
كُلُوا وَتَمَتَّعُوا قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُمْ مُجْرِمُونَ
﴿۴۶﴾
Eat and take your ease (on earth) a little. Lo! ye are guilty. (46)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۴۷﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (47)
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ارْكَعُوا لَا يَرْكَعُونَ
﴿۴۸﴾
When it is said unto them: Bow down, they bow not down! (48)
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
﴿۴۹﴾
Woe unto the repudiators on that day! (49)
فَبِأَيِّ حَدِيثٍ بَعْدَهُ يُؤْمِنُونَ
﴿۵۰﴾
In what statement, after this, will they believe? (50)
