# Translation Ayah
1 By the Mount Sinai, وَالطُّورِ
2 and by the Scripture penned وَكِتَابٍ مَّسْطُورٍ
3 on unrolled parchment, فِي رَقٍّ مَّنشُورٍ
4 by the much-visited House, وَالْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ
5 and by the lofty vault of the sky, وَالسَّقْفِ الْمَرْفُوعِ
6 and by the swelling sea, وَالْبَحْرِ الْمَسْجُورِ
7 the punishment of your Lord shall certainly come to pass, إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَاقِعٌ
8 there is no one who could avert it, مَا لَهُ مِن دَافِعٍ
9 on the Day when the skies are convulsed, يَوْمَ تَمُورُ السَّمَاء مَوْرًا
10 and the mountains shudder and shake. وَتَسِيرُ الْجِبَالُ سَيْرًا
11 Woe on that Day to those who deny the truth, فَوَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
12 who divert themselves with idle chatter: الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي خَوْضٍ يَلْعَبُونَ
13 on that Day they shall be ruthlessly thrust into the Fire of Hell. يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَى نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا
14 This is the fire which you used to deny. هَذِهِ النَّارُ الَّتِي كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ
15 Is this magic or do you not see? أَفَسِحْرٌ هَذَا أَمْ أَنتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
16 Now enter it. Whether you behave patiently or impatiently will make no difference: you are only being repaid for what you have done. اصْلَوْهَا فَاصْبِرُوا أَوْ لَا تَصْبِرُوا سَوَاء عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
17 Truly, the God-fearing will dwell [on that Day] in gardens and in bliss, إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَنَعِيمٍ
18 rejoicing in whatever their Lord has given them. Their Lord has saved them from the torment of the Fire, فَاكِهِينَ بِمَا آتَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ وَوَقَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِيمِ
19 "Eat and drink with good cheer as a reward for your good deeds," كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا هَنِيئًا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
20 reclining on couches arranged in rows. And We shall wed them to fair maidens with large beautiful eyes. مُتَّكِئِينَ عَلَى سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍ وَزَوَّجْنَاهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ
21 To those who have attained to faith We shall unite their offspring who have also followed them in faith, and We shall not let any of their good deeds go unrewarded; every human being is a pledge for whatever he has earned. وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَيْءٍ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ
22 We shall provide them in abundance with such fruit and meat as they desire. وَأَمْدَدْنَاهُم بِفَاكِهَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ
23 There, they shall pass from hand to hand a cup which does not lead to any idle talk or sin. يَتَنَازَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌ
24 They will be waited upon by immortal youths, like pearls hidden in their shells. وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌ لَّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌ مَّكْنُونٌ
25 They will converse with one another, putting questions to each other, وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ يَتَسَاءلُونَ
26 "Before this, when we were among our families, we were full of fear of God's displeasure -- قَالُوا إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِي أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ
27 God has been gracious to us and has saved us from the torment of Hell's intense heat -- فَمَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَانَا عَذَابَ السَّمُومِ
28 before this, we used to pray to Him. Surely, He is the Beneficent, the Merciful." إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْبَرُّ الرَّحِيمُ
29 Therefore continue to give warning, for by the grace of your Lord, you are not a soothsayer or a madman. فَذَكِّرْ فَمَا أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ
30 If they say, "He is but a poet; we are waiting for some misfortune to befall him," أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِ رَيْبَ الْمَنُونِ
31 say [to them], "Wait then: I too am waiting along with you!" -- قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا فَإِنِّي مَعَكُم مِّنَ الْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ
32 is it their minds that prompt them [to say] this, or are they merely insolent people? أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَامُهُم بِهَذَا أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ
33 Or do they say, "He has invented it himself"? Indeed, they are not willing to believe. أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُ بَل لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ
34 Let them produce a scripture like it, if what they say is true. فَلْيَأْتُوا بِحَدِيثٍ مِّثْلِهِ إِن كَانُوا صَادِقِينَ
35 Were they created out of nothing, or are they their own creators? أَمْ خُلِقُوا مِنْ غَيْرِ شَيْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ الْخَالِقُونَ
36 Did they create the heavens and the earth? No! They have no faith. أَمْ خَلَقُوا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ
37 Do they own the treasures of your Lord, or have they been given charge of them? أَمْ عِندَهُمْ خَزَائِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ الْمُصَيْطِرُونَ
38 Have they a ladder up to heaven by means of which they can overhear? Then let their listeners bring a clear proof. أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
39 Does God have daughters while you have sons? أَمْ لَهُ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَكُمُ الْبَنُونَ
40 Or do you ask them for a reward, so that they are over-burdened by debt? أَمْ تَسْأَلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُونَ
41 Do they possess knowledge of the unseen, so that they can write it down? أَمْ عِندَهُمُ الْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ
42 Do they want to hatch some plot? Those who deny the truth will be the victims of the plot. أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًا فَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا هُمُ الْمَكِيدُونَ
43 Or have they a god other than God? Exalted be God over what they ascribe as partners [to Him]! أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَهٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
44 If they should see a part of the heavens falling down, they would say, "A mass of clouds," وَإِن يَرَوْا كِسْفًا مِّنَ السَّمَاء سَاقِطًا يَقُولُوا سَحَابٌ مَّرْكُومٌ
45 so leave them alone till they face the Day on which they will be struck dumb, فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّى يُلَاقُوا يَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِي فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ
46 the Day when none of their scheming will be of the least avail to them, and they will receive no succour. يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
47 Truly, for those who do wrong there is a punishment besides that, though most of them do not know it. وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا عَذَابًا دُونَ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
48 So wait patiently for the Judgement of your Lord -- you are certainly under Our watchful eye. And glorify and celebrate the praises of your Lord when you rise up [from your sleep]. وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ
49 Extol His glory at night, and at the setting of the stars. وَمِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَارَ النُّجُومِ
