# Translation Ayah
1 Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection; لَا أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
2 Nay, I swear by the accusing soul (that this Scripture is true). وَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالنَّفْسِ اللَّوَّامَةِ
3 Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones? أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَلَّن نَجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ
4 Yea, verily. We are Able to restore his very fingers! بَلَى قَادِرِينَ عَلَى أَن نُّسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ
5 But man would fain deny what is before him. بَلْ يُرِيدُ الْإِنسَانُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُ
6 He asketh: When will be this Day of Resurrection? يَسْأَلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ
7 But when sight is confounded فَإِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ
8 And the moon is eclipsed وَخَسَفَ الْقَمَرُ
9 And sun and moon are united, وَجُمِعَ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ
10 On that day man will cry: Whither to flee! يَقُولُ الْإِنسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ
11 Alas! No refuge! كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ
12 Unto thy Lord is the recourse that day. إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ
13 On that day man is told the tale of that which he hath sent before and left behind. يُنَبَّأُ الْإِنسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ
14 Oh, but man is a telling witness against himself, بَلِ الْإِنسَانُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بَصِيرَةٌ
15 Although he tender his excuses. وَلَوْ أَلْقَى مَعَاذِيرَهُ
16 Stir not thy tongue herewith to hasten it. لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ
17 Lo! upon Us (resteth) the putting together thereof and the reading thereof. إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ
18 And when We read it, follow thou the reading; فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ
19 Then lo! upon Us (resteth) the explanation thereof. ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ
20 Nay, but ye do love the fleeting Now كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ
21 And neglect the Hereafter. وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
22 That day will faces be resplendent, وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاضِرَةٌ
23 Looking toward their Lord; إِلَى رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ
24 And that day will other faces be despondent, وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ
25 Thou wilt know that some great disaster is about to fall on them. تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ
26 Nay, but when the life cometh up to the throat كَلَّا إِذَا بَلَغَتْ التَّرَاقِيَ
27 And men say: Where is the wizard (who can save him now)? وَقِيلَ مَنْ رَاقٍ
28 And he knoweth that it is the parting; وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ
29 And agony is heaped on agony; وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ
30 Unto thy Lord that day will be the driving. إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ
31 For he neither trusted, nor prayed. فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّى
32 But he denied and flouted. وَلَكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّى
33 Then went he to his folk with glee. ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّى
34 Nearer unto thee and nearer, أَوْلَى لَكَ فَأَوْلَى
35 Again nearer unto thee and nearer (is the doom). ثُمَّ أَوْلَى لَكَ فَأَوْلَى
36 Thinketh man that he is to be left aimless? أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى
37 Was he not a drop of fluid which gushed forth? أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِّن مَّنِيٍّ يُمْنَى
38 Then he became a clot; then (Allah) shaped and fashioned ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّى
39 And made of him a pair, the male and female. فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَى
40 Is not He (Who doeth so) Able to bring the dead to life? أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَى أَن يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَى
