# Translation Ayah
1 By the winds that scatter the dust, وَالذَّارِيَاتِ ذَرْوًا
2 and those that bear the burden [of the rain], فَالْحَامِلَاتِ وِقْرًا
3 and those speeding along with ease, فَالْجَارِيَاتِ يُسْرًا
4 and distributing the command of God at His behest! فَالْمُقَسِّمَاتِ أَمْرًا
5 What you are promised is certainly true: إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌ
6 the Judgement will surely come to pass -- وَإِنَّ الدِّينَ لَوَاقِعٌ
7 by the heaven full of tracks, وَالسَّمَاء ذَاتِ الْحُبُكِ
8 surely you are deeply at variance [as to what to believe] -- إِنَّكُمْ لَفِي قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ
9 he is turned away from [the truth] who is destined to be so turned away. يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ
10 May the conjecturers perish, قُتِلَ الْخَرَّاصُونَ
11 who flounder in the depths of ignorance. الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي غَمْرَةٍ سَاهُونَ
12 They ask, "When will the Day of Judgement come?" يَسْأَلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
13 It will be the Day when they are tormented at the Fire. يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ
14 "Taste your trial. This is what you sought to hasten." ذُوقُوا فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَذَا الَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
15 Surely the God-fearing will find themselves in the midst of gardens and springs. إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
16 They shall receive what their Lord will bestow on them. They have done good works in the past, آخِذِينَ مَا آتَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ
17 sleeping little in the night-time, كَانُوا قَلِيلًا مِّنَ اللَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ
18 praying at dawn for God's pardon, وَبِالْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ
19 and sharing their possessions with the beggars and the deprived. وَفِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّائِلِ وَالْمَحْرُومِ
20 On the earth, and in yourselves, وَفِي الْأَرْضِ آيَاتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ
21 there are signs for firm believers. Do you not see then? وَفِي أَنفُسِكُمْ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ
22 In heaven is your sustenance, and also that which you are promised. وَفِي السَّمَاء رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ
23 By the Lord of the heaven and the earth, it is certainly the truth. It is as true as your ability to speak. فَوَرَبِّ السَّمَاء وَالْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُ لَحَقٌّ مِّثْلَ مَا أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ
24 Have you heard the story of Abraham's honoured guests? هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْمُكْرَمِينَ
25 When they came to him they said, "Peace!" He answered, "Peace!" [saying to himself]. "They are strangers." إِذْ دَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا سَلَامًا قَالَ سَلَامٌ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ
26 Then he turned quickly to his household, and brought a fatted calf, فَرَاغَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَجَاء بِعِجْلٍ سَمِينٍ
27 and placed it before them. "Will you not eat?" he said, فَقَرَّبَهُ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ
28 beginning to be afraid of them. But they said, "Don't be afraid"; and they gave him the good news of a son who would be endowed with knowledge. فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةً قَالُوا لَا تَخَفْ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَامٍ عَلِيمٍ
29 Then his wife came forward, crying and beating her brow. She said, "I am surely a barren, old woman." فَأَقْبَلَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ فِي صَرَّةٍ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌ
30 "Such is the will of your Lord," they replied. "He is the Wise, the All Knowing." قَالُوا كَذَلِكَ قَالَ رَبُّكِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْحَكِيمُ الْعَلِيمُ
31 Abraham asked, "What is your errand, O messengers?" قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ
32 They replied, "We have been sent to a sinful people, قَالُوا إِنَّا أُرْسِلْنَا إِلَى قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ
33 so that we may bring down upon them a shower of stones of clay, لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ
34 which are marked by your Lord for the punishment of those guilty of excesses." مُسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ
35 We saved all the faithful in the town. فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
36 We found in it only one household of true believers -- فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ
37 and We left therein a sign for those who fear a painful punishment. وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَا آيَةً لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ
38 There is another sign in Moses: We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority. وَفِي مُوسَى إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
39 But he turned his back, he and his courtiers, and said, "This is a sorcerer or a madman." فَتَوَلَّى بِرُكْنِهِ وَقَالَ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ
40 Then We seized him and his army and cast them all into the sea: he himself [Pharaoh] was to blame. فَأَخَذْنَاهُ وَجُنُودَهُ فَنَبَذْنَاهُمْ فِي الْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
41 There is another sign in the [tribe of] 'Ad, when We sent against them a life-destroying wind وَفِي عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الرِّيحَ الْعَقِيمَ
42 and it destroyed everything over which it passed and reduced it to dust. مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَيْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَالرَّمِيمِ
43 In the Thamud [there was another sign], when they were told, "Make the most of your lives for a while." وَفِي ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا حَتَّى حِينٍ
44 But they rebelled against the command of their Lord. So the thunderbolt overtook them while they looked on: فَعَتَوْا عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ
45 they could not stand up again, nor could they defend themselves. فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنتَصِرِينَ
46 [We destroyed] the people of Noah before them. They were certainly a sinful people. وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمًا فَاسِقِينَ
47 We built the universe with Our might, giving it its vast expanse. وَالسَّمَاء بَنَيْنَاهَا بِأَيْدٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ
48 We have spread out the earth, how well We have spread it out, وَالْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَاهَا فَنِعْمَ الْمَاهِدُونَ
49 and We created pairs of all things so that you might reflect. وَمِن كُلِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ
50 Therefore hasten to God; truly, I am sent by Him to give you clear warning. فَفِرُّوا إِلَى اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ
51 Do not set up another god, along with God. I come from Him to warn you plainly. وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ
52 Likewise, there came no messenger to those before them, but they said, "He is a sorcerer or a madman." كَذَلِكَ مَا أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ
53 Have they handed this down to one another? They are certainly a people who exceed all bounds, أَتَوَاصَوْا بِهِ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ
54 so ignore them, you are not to blame, فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَا أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ
55 but keep on exhorting them, for exhortation benefits the believers. وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَى تَنفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
56 I created the jinn and mankind only so that they might worship Me: وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
57 I seek no sustenance from them, nor do I want them to feed Me -- مَا أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ
58 it is God who is the great Sustainer, the Mighty One, the Invincible. إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ
59 The wrongdoers will meet the same fate as their predecessors, let them not ask Me to hasten on [the punishment], فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ
60 woe, then, to those who are bent on denying the truth, when the Day arrives which they have been promised. فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِن يَوْمِهِمُ الَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ
