| إِذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ {١} |
1. When the sun is overthrown, |
| وَإِذَا النُّجُومُ انْكَدَرَتْ {٢} |
2. And when the stars fall, |
| وَإِذَا الْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ {٣} |
3. And when the hills are moved, |
| وَإِذَا الْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ {٤} |
4. And when the camels big with young are abandoned, |
| وَإِذَا الْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ {٥} |
5. And when the wild beasts are herded together, |
| وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ {٦} |
6. And when the seas rise, |
| وَإِذَا النُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ {٧} |
7. And when souls are reunited, |
| وَإِذَا الْمَوْءُودَةُ سُئِلَتْ {٨} |
8. And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked |
| بِأَيِّ ذَنْبٍ قُتِلَتْ {٩} |
9. For what sin she was slain, |
| وَإِذَا الصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ {١٠} |
10. And when the pages are laid open, |
| وَإِذَا السَّمَاءُ كُشِطَتْ {١١} |
11. And when the sky is torn away, |
| وَإِذَا الْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ {١٢} |
12. And when hell is lighted, |
| وَإِذَا الْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ {١٣} |
13. And when the Garden is brought nigh, |
| عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَا أَحْضَرَتْ {١٤} |
14. (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready. |
| فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالْخُنَّسِ {١٥} |
15. Oh, but I call to witness the planets, |
| الْجَوَارِ الْكُنَّسِ {١٦} |
16. The stars which rise and set, |
| وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ {١٧} |
17. And the close of night, |
| وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ {١٨} |
18. And the breath of morning |
| إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ {١٩} |
19. That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger, |
| ذِي قُوَّةٍ عِنْدَ ذِي الْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍ {٢٠} |
20. Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, |
| مُطَاعٍ ثَمَّ أَمِينٍ {٢١} |
21. (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy; |
| وَمَا صَاحِبُكُمْ بِمَجْنُونٍ {٢٢} |
22. And your comrade is not mad. |
| وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ بِالْأُفُقِ الْمُبِينِ {٢٣} |
23. Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon. |
| وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍ {٢٤} |
24. And he is not avid of the Unseen. |
| وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَانٍ رَجِيمٍ {٢٥} |
25. Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned. |
| فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ {٢٦} |
26. Whither then go ye? |
| إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِلْعَالَمِينَ {٢٧} |
27. This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, |
| لِمَنْ شَاءَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَسْتَقِيمَ {٢٨} |
28. Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. |
| وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ {٢٩} |
29. And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation. |
