 |
| اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ {١} |
1. There is none besides Allah to remove it. |
| وَإِنْ يَرَوْا آيَةً يُعْرِضُوا وَيَقُولُوا سِحْرٌ مُسْتَمِرٌّ {٢} |
2. Wonder you then at this announcement? |
| وَكَذَّبُوا وَاتَّبَعُوا أَهْوَاءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ مُسْتَقِرٌّ {٣} |
3. And do you laugh and not weep, |
| وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ مِنَ الْأَنْبَاءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ {٤} |
4. While you sport? |
| حِكْمَةٌ بَالِغَةٌ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ النُّذُرُ {٥} |
5. So bow down in prostration before Allah and serve (Him). |
| فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ الدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَيْءٍ نُكُرٍ {٦} |
6. The hour drew nigh and the moon was rent asunder. |
| خُشَّعًا أَبْصَارُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُنْتَشِرٌ {٧} |
7. And if they see a sign, they turn away and say: Strong enchantment! |
| مُهْطِعِينَ إِلَى الدَّاعِ ۖ يَقُولُ الْكَافِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ {٨} |
8. And they deny and follow their low desires; and every affair is settled. |
| كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ فَكَذَّبُوا عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا مَجْنُونٌ وَازْدُجِرَ {٩} |
9. And certainly narratives have come to them, which should deter -- |
| فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَغْلُوبٌ فَانْتَصِرْ {١٠} |
10. Consummate wisdom -- but warnings avail not; |
| فَفَتَحْنَا أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَاءٍ مُنْهَمِرٍ {١١} |
11. So turn away from them. On the day when the Inviter invites them to a hard task -- |
| وَفَجَّرْنَا الْأَرْضَ عُيُونًا فَالْتَقَى الْمَاءُ عَلَىٰ أَمْرٍ قَدْ قُدِرَ {١٢} |
12. Their eyes cast down, they will go forth from their graves as if they were scattered locusts, |
| وَحَمَلْنَاهُ عَلَىٰ ذَاتِ أَلْوَاحٍ وَدُسُرٍ {١٣} |
13. Hastening to the Inviter. The disbelievers will say: This is a hard day! |
| تَجْرِي بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَاءً لِمَنْ كَانَ كُفِرَ {١٤} |
14. Before them the people of Noah rejected -- they rejected Our servant and called (him) mad, and he was driven away. |
| وَلَقَدْ تَرَكْنَاهَا آيَةً فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {١٥} |
15. So he called upon his Lord: I am overcome, so do Thou help. |
| فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {١٦} |
16. Then We opened the gates of heaven with water pouring down. |
| وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {١٧} |
17. And made water to flow forth in the land in springs, so the water gathered together according to a measure already ordained. |
| كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {١٨} |
18. And We bore him on that which was made of planks and nails, |
| إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًا صَرْصَرًا فِي يَوْمِ نَحْسٍ مُسْتَمِرٍّ {١٩} |
19. Floating on, before Our eyes -- a reward for him who was denied. |
| تَنْزِعُ النَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ مُنْقَعِرٍ {٢٠} |
20. And certainly We left it as a sign, but is there any that will mind? |
| فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {٢١} |
21. How terrible was then My chastisement and My warning! |
| وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {٢٢} |
22. And certainly We have made the Qur’an easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
| كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِالنُّذُرِ {٢٣} |
23. ‘Ad denied, so how terrible was My chastisement and My warning! |
| فَقَالُوا أَبَشَرًا مِنَّا وَاحِدًا نَتَّبِعُهُ إِنَّا إِذًا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ وَسُعُرٍ {٢٤} |
24. Surely We sent on them a furious wind in a day of bitter ill-luck, |
| أَأُلْقِيَ الذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌ {٢٥} |
25. Tearing men away as if they were the trunks of palm-trees torn up. |
| سَيَعْلَمُونَ غَدًا مَنِ الْكَذَّابُ الْأَشِرُ {٢٦} |
26. How terrible was then My chastisement and My warning! |
| إِنَّا مُرْسِلُو النَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةً لَهُمْ فَارْتَقِبْهُمْ وَاصْطَبِرْ {٢٧} |
27. And certainly We have made the Qur’an easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
| وَنَبِّئْهُمْ أَنَّ الْمَاءَ قِسْمَةٌ بَيْنَهُمْ ۖ كُلُّ شِرْبٍ مُحْتَضَرٌ {٢٨} |
28. Thamud rejected the warning. |
| فَنَادَوْا صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ {٢٩} |
29. To-morrow they will know who is the liar, the insolent one. |
| فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {٣٠} |
30. Surely We are going to send the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch them and have patience. |
| إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَكَانُوا كَهَشِيمِ الْمُحْتَظِرِ {٣١} |
31. And inform them that the water is shared between them; every share of the water shall be attended. |
| وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {٣٢} |
32. But they called their companion, so he took (a sword) and hamstrung (her). |
| كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍ بِالنُّذُرِ {٣٣} |
33. How (terrible) was then My chastisement and My warning! |
| إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَاصِبًا إِلَّا آلَ لُوطٍ ۖ نَجَّيْنَاهُمْ بِسَحَرٍ {٣٤} |
34. Surely We sent upon them a single cry, so they were like the dry fragments of trees, which the maker of an enclosure collects. |
| نِعْمَةً مِنْ عِنْدِنَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِي مَنْ شَكَرَ {٣٥} |
35. And certainly We have made the Qur’an easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
| وَلَقَدْ أَنْذَرَهُمْ بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْا بِالنُّذُرِ {٣٦} |
36. The people of Lot treated the warning as a lie. |
| وَلَقَدْ رَاوَدُوهُ عَنْ ضَيْفِهِ فَطَمَسْنَا أَعْيُنَهُمْ فَذُوقُوا عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {٣٧} |
37. Surely We sent upon them a stone-storm, except Lot’s followers; We saved them a little before daybreak -- |
| وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُمْ بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌ مُسْتَقِرٌّ {٣٨} |
38. A favour from Us. Thus do We reward him who gives thanks. |
| فَذُوقُوا عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ {٣٩} |
39. And certainly he warned them of Our violent seizure, but they disputed the warning. |
| وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {٤٠} |
40. And certainly they endeavoured to turn him from his guests, but We blinded their eyes; so taste My chastisement and My warning. |
| وَلَقَدْ جَاءَ آلَ فِرْعَوْنَ النُّذُرُ {٤١} |
41. And certainly a lasting chastisement overtook them in the morning. |
| كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذْنَاهُمْ أَخْذَ عَزِيزٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ {٤٢} |
42. So taste My chastisement and My warning. |
| أَكُفَّارُكُمْ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أُولَٰئِكُمْ أَمْ لَكُمْ بَرَاءَةٌ فِي الزُّبُرِ {٤٣} |
43. And certainly We have made the Qur’an easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
| أَمْ يَقُولُونَ نَحْنُ جَمِيعٌ مُنْتَصِرٌ {٤٤} |
44. And certainly the warning came to Pharaoh’s people. |
| سَيُهْزَمُ الْجَمْعُ وَيُوَلُّونَ الدُّبُرَ {٤٥} |
45. They rejected all Our signs, so We overtook them with the seizing of the Mighty, the Powerful. |
| بَلِ السَّاعَةُ مَوْعِدُهُمْ وَالسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَىٰ وَأَمَرُّ {٤٦} |
46. Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny? |
| إِنَّ الْمُجْرِمِينَ فِي ضَلَالٍ وَسُعُرٍ {٤٧} |
47. Are your disbelievers better than these, or have you an immunity in the scriptures? |
| يَوْمَ يُسْحَبُونَ فِي النَّارِ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمْ ذُوقُوا مَسَّ سَقَرَ {٤٨} |
48. Nay, the Hour is their promised time, and the Hour is most grievous and bitter. |
| إِنَّا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَاهُ بِقَدَرٍ {٤٩} |
49. Surely the guilty are in error and distress. |
| وَمَا أَمْرُنَا إِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ كَلَمْحٍ بِالْبَصَرِ {٥٠} |
50. On the day when they are dragged into the Fire upon their faces: Taste the touch of hell. |
| وَلَقَدْ أَهْلَكْنَا أَشْيَاعَكُمْ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ {٥١} |
51. Surely We have created everything according to a measure. |
| وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ فَعَلُوهُ فِي الزُّبُرِ {٥٢} |
52. And Our command is but once, as the twinkling of an eye. |
| وَكُلُّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ مُسْتَطَرٌ {٥٣} |
53. And certainly We destroyed your fellows, but is there any one who will mind? |
| إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَنَهَرٍ {٥٤} |
54. And everything they do is in the writings. |
| فِي مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِنْدَ مَلِيكٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ {٥٥} |
55. And everything small and great is written down. |
