1 Ha, Meem. حم
2 By the Manifest Book! وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ
3 We sent it down on a blessed night, and We have been warning [mankind]. إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
4 Every definitive matter is resolved on it, فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
5 as an ordinance from Us. We have been sending [apostles] أَمْرًا مِّنْ عِندِنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
6 as a mercy from your Lord—indeed He is the All-hearing, the All-knowing— رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
7 the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatever is between them, should you have conviction. رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
8 There is no god except Him: He gives life and brings death, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers. لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
9 But they play around in doubt. بَلْ هُمْ فِي شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ
10 So watch out for the day when the sky brings on a manifest smoke, فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاء بِدُخَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
11 enveloping the people. [They will cry out:] ‘This is a painful punishment. يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
12 Our Lord! Remove this punishment from us. Indeed we have believed!’ رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
13 What will the admonition avail them, when a manifest apostle had already come to them, أَنَّى لَهُمُ الذِّكْرَى وَقَدْ جَاءهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ
14 but they turned away from him, and said, ‘A tutored madman?’ ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَّجْنُونٌ
15 Indeed We will withdraw the punishment a little; but you will revert [to your earlier ways]. إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ
16 The day We shall strike with the most terrible striking, We will indeed take vengeance [on them]. يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَى إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ
17 Certainly We tried the people of Pharaoh before them, when a noble apostle came to them, وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَاءهُمْ رَسُولٌ كَرِيمٌ
18 [saying,] ‘Give over the servants of Allah to me; indeed I am a trusted apostle [sent] to you. أَنْ أَدُّوا إِلَيَّ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ
19 Do not defy Allah. Indeed I bring you a manifest authority. وَأَنْ لَّا تَعْلُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ إِنِّي آتِيكُم بِسُلْطَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
20 I seek the protection of my Lord and your Lord, lest you should stone me. وَإِنِّي عُذْتُ بِرَبِّي وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ
21 And if you do not believe me, keep out of my way.’ وَإِنْ لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا لِي فَاعْتَزِلُونِ
22 Then he invoked his Lord, [saying,] ‘These are indeed a guilty lot.’ فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنَّ هَؤُلَاء قَوْمٌ مُّجْرِمُونَ
23 [Allah told him,] ‘Set out by night with My servants; for you will be pursued. فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي لَيْلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ
24 Leave behind the sea unmoving; for they will be a drowned host.’ وَاتْرُكْ الْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌ مُّغْرَقُونَ
25 How many gardens and springs did they leave behind! كَمْ تَرَكُوا مِن جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
26 Fields and splendid places, وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
27 and the affluence wherein they rejoiced! وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا فِيهَا فَاكِهِينَ
28 So it was; and We bequeathed them to another people. كَذَلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا قَوْمًا آخَرِينَ
29 So neither the sky wept for them, nor the earth; nor were they granted any respite. فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّمَاء وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنظَرِينَ
30 Certainly We delivered the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ
31 of Pharaoh. Indeed, he was a tyrant among the transgressors. مِن فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِّنَ الْمُسْرِفِينَ
32 Certainly We chose them knowingly above all the nations, وَلَقَدِ اخْتَرْنَاهُمْ عَلَى عِلْمٍ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ
33 and We gave them some signs in which there was a manifest test. وَآتَيْنَاهُم مِّنَ الْآيَاتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَاء مُّبِينٌ
34 These ones say, إِنَّ هَؤُلَاء لَيَقُولُونَ
35 ‘It will be only our first death, and we shall not be resurrected. إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا الْأُولَى وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ
36 Bring our fathers back [to life], if you are truthful.’ فَأْتُوا بِآبَائِنَا إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
37 Are they better, or the people of Tubba‘, and those who were before them? We destroyed them; indeed, they were guilty. أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ أَهْلَكْنَاهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُجْرِمِينَ
38 We did not create the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them for play. وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِبِينَ
39 We did not create them except with consummate wisdom; but most of them do not know. مَا خَلَقْنَاهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
40 Indeed the Day of Judgement is the tryst for them all, إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ مِيقَاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
41 the day when a friend will not avail a friend in any way, nor will they be helped, يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي مَوْلًى عَن مَّوْلًى شَيْئًا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
42 except for him on whom Allah has mercy. Indeed He is the All-mighty, the All-merciful. إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ
43 Indeed the tree of Zaqqum إِنَّ شَجَرَةَ الزَّقُّومِ
44 will be the food of the sinful. طَعَامُ الْأَثِيمِ
45 Like molten copper it will boil in their bellies, كَالْمُهْلِ يَغْلِي فِي الْبُطُونِ
46 seething like boiling water. كَغَلْيِ الْحَمِيمِ
47 [The keepers of hell will be told,] ‘Seize him and drag him to the middle of hell, خُذُوهُ فَاعْتِلُوهُ إِلَى سَوَاء الْجَحِيمِ
48 then pour over his head boiling water as punishment, ثُمَّ صُبُّوا فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْحَمِيمِ
49 [and tell them,] “Taste this! Indeed you are the [self-styled] mighty and noble! ذُقْ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْكَرِيمُ
50 This is what you used to doubt!’ إِنَّ هَذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِ تَمْتَرُونَ
51 Indeed the Godwary will be in a safe place, إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي مَقَامٍ أَمِينٍ
52 amid gardens and springs, فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
53 dressed in fine silk and brocade, sitting face to face. يَلْبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسٍ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍ مُّتَقَابِلِينَ
54 So shall it be, and We shall wed them to black-eyed houris. كَذَلِكَ وَزَوَّجْنَاهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ
55 Secure [from any kind of harm,] there they will call for every kind of fruit [they wish]. يَدْعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَاكِهَةٍ آمِنِينَ
56 Other than the first death, they will not taste death therein, and He will save them from the punishment of hell لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا الْمَوْتَ إِلَّا الْمَوْتَةَ الْأُولَى وَوَقَاهُمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِيمِ
57 —a grace from your Lord. That is the great success. فَضْلًا مِّن رَّبِّكَ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ
58 Indeed We have made it simple in your language, so that they may take admonition. فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرْنَاهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ
59 So wait! They [too] are waiting. فَارْتَقِبْ إِنَّهُم مُّرْتَقِبُونَ
