399 Ayahs

Translation: Mufti Taqi Usmani  ·  Arabic: Indo-Pak script

51. Adh-Dhariyat

51:31

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ اَیُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُوْنَ

He (Ibrāhīm) said (to the angels), “Then, what is your mission O messengers?”
51:32

قَالُوْۤا اِنَّاۤ اُرْسِلْنَاۤ اِلٰی قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِیْنَ

They said, “We are sent to a guilty people, (i.e. the people of Sodom)
51:33

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَیْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّنْ طِیْنٍ

so that we may send down upon them stones of clay,
51:34

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِیْنَ

marked by your Lord for the transgressors.”
51:35

فَاَخْرَجْنَا مَنْ كَانَ فِیْهَا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

So, We let the believers who were there to come out (from danger),
51:36

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِیْهَا غَیْرَ بَیْتٍ مِّنَ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ

but We did not find in it any Muslims, except one house.
51:37

وَتَرَكْنَا فِیْهَاۤ اٰیَةً لِّلَّذِیْنَ یَخَافُوْنَ الْعَذَابَ الْاَلِیْمَ

And We left in this (event) a sign (of deterrence) for those who fear the painful punishment.
51:38

وَفِیْ مُوْسٰۤی اِذْ اَرْسَلْنٰهُ اِلٰی فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

And (We left a similar sign) in (the story of) Mūsā, when We sent him to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh) with a clear proof.
51:39

فَتَوَلّٰی بِرُكْنِهٖ وَقَالَ سٰحِرٌ اَوْ مَجْنُوْنٌ

So he turned away along with his chiefs and said, “ (Mūsā is) a magician or a madman!”
51:40

فَاَخَذْنٰهُ وَجُنُوْدَهٗ فَنَبَذْنٰهُمْ فِی الْیَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِیْمٌ

So We seized him and his army, and cast them into the sea, as he was of culpable behaviour.
51:41

وَفِیْ عَادٍ اِذْ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمُ الرِّیْحَ الْعَقِیْمَ

And (a similar sign was left) in (the story of) ‘Ād, when We sent upon them the wind that was barren (from any benefit);
51:42

مَا تَذَرُ مِنْ شَیْءٍ اَتَتْ عَلَیْهِ اِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَالرَّمِیْمِ

it spared nothing it came upon, but rendered it like a stuff smashed by decay.
51:43

وَفِیْ ثَمُوْدَ اِذْ قِیْلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوْا حَتّٰی حِیْنٍ

And (a similar sign was left) in (the story of) Thamūd, when it was said to them, “Enjoy yourselves for a while.”
51:44

فَعَتَوْا عَنْ اَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الصّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ یَنْظُرُوْنَ

Then they rebelled against the command of your Lord; so the thunderbolt (of divine punishment) seized them, while they were looking on.
51:45

فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوْا مِنْ قِیَامٍ وَّمَا كَانُوْا مُنْتَصِرِیْنَ

Then they were neither able to stand (before the punishment), nor could they defend themselves.
51:46

وَقَوْمَ نُوْحٍ مِّنْ قَبْلُ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا قَوْمًا فٰسِقِیْنَ

And (We have destroyed) the people of NūH even before; indeed they were a sinful people.
51:47

وَالسَّمَآءَ بَنَیْنٰهَا بِاَیْىدٍ وَّاِنَّا لَمُوْسِعُوْنَ

And the sky was built by Us with might; and indeed We are the expanders.
51:48

وَالْاَرْضَ فَرَشْنٰهَا فَنِعْمَ الْمٰهِدُوْنَ

And the earth was spread out by Us as a floor; so how well have We spread it out!
51:49

وَمِنْ كُلِّ شَیْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَیْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُوْنَ

And from every thing We have created pairs of twos, so that you may heed.
51:50

فَفِرُّوْۤا اِلَی اللّٰهِ ؕ اِنِّیْ لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ

So, flee to Allah. Indeed I am a plain warner sent by Him for you.
51:51

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوْا مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ ؕ اِنِّیْ لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ

And do not make up any other god along with Allah. Indeed I am a plain warner sent by Him for you.
51:52

كَذٰلِكَ مَاۤ اَتَی الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِّنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا قَالُوْا سَاحِرٌ اَوْ مَجْنُوْنٌ

In similar way, no messenger came to those before them, but they said, “(He is) a magician or a madman.”
51:53

اَتَوَاصَوْا بِهٖ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُوْنَ

Have they handed down (this saying) to each other as a legacy? Rather they are a rebellious people.
51:54

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَاۤ اَنْتَ بِمَلُوْمٍ

So, turn away from them, for you are not blamed.
51:55

وَّذَكِّرْ فَاِنَّ الذِّكْرٰی تَنْفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ

And keep reminding, because reminding benefits the believers.
51:56

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْاِنْسَ اِلَّا لِیَعْبُدُوْنِ

I did not create the Jinns and the human beings except for the purpose that they should worship Me.
51:57

مَاۤ اُرِیْدُ مِنْهُمْ مِّنْ رِّزْقٍ وَّمَاۤ اُرِیْدُ اَنْ یُّطْعِمُوْنِ

I do not want any sustenance from them, nor do I want them to feed Me.
51:58

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِیْنُ

In fact, Allah is the All-Sustainer, Possessor of power, the Strong.
51:59

فَاِنَّ لِلَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا ذَنُوْبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوْبِ اَصْحٰبِهِمْ فَلَا یَسْتَعْجِلُوْنِ

So, those who did wrong will have their turn like the turn of their counterparts. So, they should not ask Me to hasten on.
51:60

فَوَیْلٌ لِّلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ یَّوْمِهِمُ الَّذِیْ یُوْعَدُوْنَ

Woe, then, to those who disbelieve because of the Day of theirs that they are promised (for punishment).

52. At-Tur

52:1

وَالطُّوْرِ

By the mount of Tūr,
52:2

وَكِتٰبٍ مَّسْطُوْرٍ

and by a book, written
52:3

فِیْ رَقٍّ مَّنْشُوْرٍ

on an unrolled scroll,
52:4

وَّالْبَیْتِ الْمَعْمُوْرِ

and by the Populated House (Al-Bait-ul-Ma‘mūr) ,
52:5

وَالسَّقْفِ الْمَرْفُوْعِ

and by the roof, raised high,
52:6

وَالْبَحْرِ الْمَسْجُوْرِ

and by the sea, flared up (with fire),
52:7

اِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَاقِعٌ

the punishment of your Lord is sure to fall.
52:8

مَّا لَهٗ مِنْ دَافِعٍ

There is nothing to push it back,
52:9

یَّوْمَ تَمُوْرُ السَّمَآءُ مَوْرًا

the Day when the sky will tremble, a horrible trembling,
52:10

وَّتَسِیْرُ الْجِبَالُ سَیْرًا

and the mountains will move about, a terrible movement.
52:11

فَوَیْلٌ یَّوْمَىِٕذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِیْنَ

So, woe to those who reject (the true faith),
52:12

الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ فِیْ خَوْضٍ یَّلْعَبُوْنَ

who are indulged in vain talk, playing (with truth),
52:13

یَوْمَ یُدَعُّوْنَ اِلٰی نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا

the Day they will be pushed to the Fire forcefully,
52:14

هٰذِهِ النَّارُ الَّتِیْ كُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُوْنَ

(and it will be said to them,) “This is the Fire you used to deny.
52:15

اَفَسِحْرٌ هٰذَاۤ اَمْ اَنْتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُوْنَ

Is it then magic, or do you not see?
52:16

اِصْلَوْهَا فَاصْبِرُوْۤا اَوْ لَا تَصْبِرُوْا ۚ سَوَآءٌ عَلَیْكُمْ ؕ اِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ

Enter it. Now, whether you endure (it) patiently or impatiently, it is all the same for you; you are merely rewarded for what you used to do.”
52:17

اِنَّ الْمُتَّقِیْنَ فِیْ جَنّٰتٍ وَّنَعِیْمٍ

Of course, the God-fearing will be in gardens and bliss,
52:18

فٰكِهِیْنَ بِمَاۤ اٰتٰىهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ وَوَقٰىهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِیْمِ

enjoying what their Lord will have given to them, and their Lord will have saved them from the punishment of Hell.
52:19

كُلُوْا وَاشْرَبُوْا هَنِیْٓـًٔا بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ

(It will be said to them,) “Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you used to do,
52:20

مُتَّكِـِٕیْنَ عَلٰی سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوْفَةٍ ۚ وَزَوَّجْنٰهُمْ بِحُوْرٍ عِیْنٍ

relaxing on lined up couches”. And We will marry them with big-eyed houris.
52:21

وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّیَّتُهُمْ بِاِیْمَانٍ اَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّیَّتَهُمْ وَمَاۤ اَلَتْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ عَمَلِهِمْ مِّنْ شَیْءٍ ؕ كُلُّ امْرِىۢ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِیْنٌ

And those who believed and their children followed them in belief, We will join their children with them, and will not curtail (the reward of) any of their deeds at all. Every person will be pledged for what he earned.
52:22

وَاَمْدَدْنٰهُمْ بِفَاكِهَةٍ وَّلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا یَشْتَهُوْنَ

And We will go on giving them whatever they desire of fruits and meat.
52:23

یَتَنَازَعُوْنَ فِیْهَا كَاْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِیْهَا وَلَا تَاْثِیْمٌ

They will snatch from one another (in a friendly manner) a glass (of wine) carrying neither absurd talk, nor something leading to sin.
52:24

وَیَطُوْفُ عَلَیْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌ لَّهُمْ كَاَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌ مَّكْنُوْنٌ

And their own serving boys will rotate around them, (who will be as neat and clean) as if they were hidden pearls.
52:25

وَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰی بَعْضٍ یَّتَسَآءَلُوْنَ

And they will advance to one another, asking (about each other’s welfare).
52:26

قَالُوْۤا اِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِیْۤ اَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِیْنَ

They will say, “Indeed we were afraid (of Allah’s punishment) when we were amidst our family,
52:27

فَمَنَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْنَا وَوَقٰىنَا عَذَابَ السَّمُوْمِ

but Allah did favour to us and saved us from the torment of Fire’s scorching breath.
52:28

اِنَّا كُنَّا مِنْ قَبْلُ نَدْعُوْهُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الْبَرُّ الرَّحِیْمُ

We used to pray to Him before. He is surely the Most-Kind, the Very-Merciful.
52:29

فَذَكِّرْ فَمَاۤ اَنْتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَّلَا مَجْنُوْنٍ

So keep reminding (them), because by the grace of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer, nor a mad man.
52:30

اَمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ شَاعِرٌ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهٖ رَیْبَ الْمَنُوْنِ

Do they rather say, “He is a poet for whom we are awaiting the accident of death?”
52:31

قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوْا فَاِنِّیْ مَعَكُمْ مِّنَ الْمُتَرَبِّصِیْنَ

Say, “Wait! I am waiting with you, too.”
52:32

اَمْ تَاْمُرُهُمْ اَحْلَامُهُمْ بِهٰذَاۤ اَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُوْنَ

Is it their intellects that direct them to (say) this, or are they a rebellious people?
52:33

اَمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ تَقَوَّلَهٗ ۚ بَلْ لَّا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ

Do they rather say, “He has forged it (the Qur’ān.)”? No, but they do not believe.
52:34

فَلْیَاْتُوْا بِحَدِیْثٍ مِّثْلِهٖۤ اِنْ كَانُوْا صٰدِقِیْنَ

So, let them bring a discourse like this, if they are truthful.
52:35

اَمْ خُلِقُوْا مِنْ غَیْرِ شَیْءٍ اَمْ هُمُ الْخٰلِقُوْنَ

Is it that they are created by none, or are they themselves the creators?
52:36

اَمْ خَلَقُوا السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ ۚ بَلْ لَّا یُوْقِنُوْنَ

Or have they created the heavens and the earth? No, but they are sure of nothing.
52:37

اَمْ عِنْدَهُمْ خَزَآىِٕنُ رَبِّكَ اَمْ هُمُ الْمُصَۜیْطِرُوْنَ

Or do they have the treasures of your Lord, or have they acquired control (over them)?
52:38

اَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ یَّسْتَمِعُوْنَ فِیْهِ ۚ فَلْیَاْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُمْ بِسُلْطٰنٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

Or have they a stairway (to the heavens) by means of which they listen (to the divine decrees)? If so, their listener must bring a clear proof.
52:39

اَمْ لَهُ الْبَنٰتُ وَلَكُمُ الْبَنُوْنَ

Is it that He has daughters and you have sons?
52:40

اَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ اَجْرًا فَهُمْ مِّنْ مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُوْنَ

Or is it that you (O prophet) ask them for a fee, and therefore they are burdened with a liability?
52:41

اَمْ عِنْدَهُمُ الْغَیْبُ فَهُمْ یَكْتُبُوْنَ

Or have they the knowledge of the Unseen, and they are recording it?
52:42

اَمْ یُرِیْدُوْنَ كَیْدًا ؕ فَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا هُمُ الْمَكِیْدُوْنَ

Or do they intend to plan to do harm (to the prophet)? Then the disbelievers themselves shall be harmed by the plan.
52:43

اَمْ لَهُمْ اِلٰهٌ غَیْرُ اللّٰهِ ؕ سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ

Or do they have a god other than Allah? Pure is Allah from what they associate with Him.
52:44

وَاِنْ یَّرَوْا كِسْفًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًا یَّقُوْلُوْا سَحَابٌ مَّرْكُوْمٌ

Even if they see a piece falling down from the sky, they would say, “It is a cumulated cloud.”
52:45

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتّٰی یُلٰقُوْا یَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِیْ فِیْهِ یُصْعَقُوْنَ

So, leave them alone until they face their Day, in which they will be turned unconscious,
52:46

یَوْمَ لَا یُغْنِیْ عَنْهُمْ كَیْدُهُمْ شَیْـًٔا وَّلَا هُمْ یُنْصَرُوْنَ

the Day their planning will not benefit them in the least, nor will they be helped.
52:47

وَاِنَّ لِلَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا عَذَابًا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

And for those who did wrong there is another punishment before that, but most of them do not know.
52:48

وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَاِنَّكَ بِاَعْیُنِنَا وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِیْنَ تَقُوْمُ

And (O Prophet) be patient about the decision of your Lord, because you are in front of Our Eyes. And proclaim the purity of your Lord along with His praise when you stand (in Prayer),
52:49

وَمِنَ الَّیْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَاِدْبَارَ النُّجُوْمِ

And, in parts of night too, proclaim His purity, and at the time of setting of the stars.

53. An-Najm

53:1

وَالنَّجْمِ اِذَا هَوٰی

By the star when it goes down to set,
53:2

مَا ضَلَّ صَاحِبُكُمْ وَمَا غَوٰی

your fellow (the Holy Prophet) has neither missed the way, nor did he deviate.
53:3

وَمَا یَنْطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوٰی

He does not speak out of (his own) desire.
53:4

اِنْ هُوَ اِلَّا وَحْیٌ یُّوْحٰی

It is but revelation revealed (to him).
53:5

عَلَّمَهٗ شَدِیْدُ الْقُوٰی

It is taught to him by one (angel) of strong faculties,
53:6

ذُوْ مِرَّةٍ ؕ فَاسْتَوٰی

the one of vigour. So he stood poised,
53:7

وَهُوَ بِالْاُفُقِ الْاَعْلٰی

while he was on the upper horizon.
53:8

ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلّٰی

Then he drew near, and came down,
53:9

فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَیْنِ اَوْ اَدْنٰی

so as he was at a distance like that of two bows (joined together), rather even nearer.
53:10

فَاَوْحٰۤی اِلٰی عَبْدِهٖ مَاۤ اَوْحٰی

Thus He (Allah) revealed to His slave what He revealed.
53:11

مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَاٰی

The heart did not err in what he saw.
53:12

اَفَتُمٰرُوْنَهٗ عَلٰی مَا یَرٰی

Do you quarrel with him in what he sees?
53:13

وَلَقَدْ رَاٰهُ نَزْلَةً اُخْرٰی

Indeed he saw him another time
53:14

عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهٰی

by Sidrat-ul-Muntahā (the lote-tree in the upper realm),
53:15

عِنْدَهَا جَنَّةُ الْمَاْوٰی

near which there is Jannat-ul-Ma’wā (the Paradise of Abode),
53:16

اِذْ یَغْشَی السِّدْرَةَ مَا یَغْشٰی

when the lote-tree was covered by that which covered it.
53:17

مَا زَاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغٰی

The eye neither went wrong, nor did exceed the limit.
53:18

لَقَدْ رَاٰی مِنْ اٰیٰتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرٰی

He has indeed seen a part of the biggest signs of your Lord.
53:19

اَفَرَءَیْتُمُ اللّٰتَ وَالْعُزّٰی

Have you ever considered about the (idols of) Lāt and ‘Uzzā,
53:20

وَمَنٰوةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْاُخْرٰی

and about the other, the third (idol), namely, Manāt,?
53:21

اَلَكُمُ الذَّكَرُ وَلَهُ الْاُ

Is it that you have males and He (Allah) has females?
53:22

تِلْكَ اِذًا قِسْمَةٌ ضِیْزٰی

If so, it is a bizarre division.
53:23

اِنْ هِیَ اِلَّاۤ اَسْمَآءٌ سَمَّیْتُمُوْهَاۤ اَنْتُمْ وَاٰبَآؤُكُمْ مَّاۤ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ بِهَا مِنْ سُلْطٰنٍ ؕ اِنْ یَّتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَی الْاَنْفُسُ ۚ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمُ الْهُدٰی

These are nothing but names you and your fathers have invented; Allah has sent down no authority attached to them. They are following nothing but conjecture and what their own souls desire, while guidance from their Lord has surely reached them.
53:24

اَمْ لِلْاِنْسَانِ مَا تَمَنّٰی

Is it that man can get whatever he wishes?
53:25

فَلِلّٰهِ الْاٰخِرَةُ وَالْاُوْلٰی

(No,) because to Allah alone belongs the (good of) the Hereafter and the former life (of this world).
53:26

وَكَمْ مِّنْ مَّلَكٍ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ لَا تُغْنِیْ شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَیْـًٔا اِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ اَنْ یَّاْذَنَ اللّٰهُ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَرْضٰی

How many angels there are in the heavens whose intercession cannot benefit (any one) at all, but after Allah allows (it) for whomsoever He wills and pleases.
53:27

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِالْاٰخِرَةِ لَیُسَمُّوْنَ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةَ تَسْمِیَةَ الْاُ

Those who do not believe in the Hereafter call the angels by names of females.
53:28

وَمَا لَهُمْ بِهٖ مِنْ عِلْمٍ ؕ اِنْ یَّتَّبِعُوْنَ اِلَّا الظَّنَّ ۚ وَاِنَّ الظَّنَّ لَا یُغْنِیْ مِنَ الْحَقِّ شَیْـًٔا

They do not have knowledge about it. They follow nothing but conjecture, and conjecture is of no avail in (the matter of) Truth.
53:29

فَاَعْرِضْ عَنْ مَّنْ تَوَلّٰی ۙ۬ عَنْ ذِكْرِنَا وَلَمْ یُرِدْ اِلَّا الْحَیٰوةَ الدُّنْیَا

So, turn away from him who turns away from Our advice, and seeks nothing but (pleasure of) the worldly life.
53:30

ذٰلِكَ مَبْلَغُهُمْ مِّنَ الْعِلْمِ ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْ سَبِیْلِهٖ ۙ وَهُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ اهْتَدٰی

That is the limit of their access to knowledge. Indeed only your Lord knows well about the one who has gone astray from his way, and He knows well about the one who has adopted the right path.
53:31

وَلِلّٰهِ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِی الْاَرْضِ ۙ لِیَجْزِیَ الَّذِیْنَ اَسَآءُوْا بِمَا عَمِلُوْا وَیَجْزِیَ الَّذِیْنَ اَحْسَنُوْا بِالْحُسْنٰی

To Allah belongs whatever there is in the heavens and whatever there is in the earth, so that He gives punishment to evildoers for what they did, and gives good reward to those who did good
53:32

اَلَّذِیْنَ یَجْتَنِبُوْنَ كَبٰٓىِٕرَ الْاِثْمِ وَالْفَوَاحِشَ اِلَّا اللَّمَمَ ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ وَاسِعُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ ؕ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِكُمْ اِذْ اَنْشَاَكُمْ مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ وَاِذْ اَنْتُمْ اَجِنَّةٌ فِیْ بُطُوْنِ اُمَّهٰتِكُمْ ۚ فَلَا تُزَكُّوْۤا اَنْفُسَكُمْ ؕ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ اتَّقٰی

-those who abstain from the major sins and from shameful acts, except minor involvements. Indeed your Lord is extensive in forgiveness. He knows you more than anyone else (from a time) when He created you from the earth and when you were embryos in the wombs of your mothers. So, do not claim purity (from faults) for your selves. He knows best who is God-fearing.
53:33

اَفَرَءَیْتَ الَّذِیْ تَوَلّٰی

Did you see the one who turned away,
53:34

وَاَعْطٰی قَلِیْلًا وَّاَكْدٰی

and gave a little, and stopped?
53:35

اَعِنْدَهٗ عِلْمُ الْغَیْبِ فَهُوَ یَرٰی

Does he have knowledge of the Unseen whereby he sees (what he believes)?
53:36

اَمْ لَمْ یُنَبَّاْ بِمَا فِیْ صُحُفِ مُوْسٰی

Has he not been told of what was (revealed) in the scriptures of Mūsā
53:37

وَاِبْرٰهِیْمَ الَّذِیْ وَ

and of Ibrāhīm who fulfilled (his duties)?
53:38

اَلَّا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِّزْرَ اُخْرٰی

(It was) that no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of the other,
53:39

وَاَنْ لَّیْسَ لِلْاِنْسَانِ اِلَّا مَا سَعٰی

and that a man shall not deserve but (the reward of) his own effort,
53:40

وَاَنَّ سَعْیَهٗ سَوْفَ یُرٰی

and that his effort will soon be seen,
53:41

ثُمَّ یُجْزٰىهُ الْجَزَآءَ الْاَوْفٰی

then he will be recompensed for it in full,
53:42

وَاَنَّ اِلٰی رَبِّكَ الْمُنْتَهٰی

and that to your Lord is the end (of every one),
53:43

وَاَنَّهٗ هُوَ اَضْحَكَ وَاَبْكٰی

and that He is the One who makes (one) laugh and makes (him) weep,
53:44

وَاَنَّهٗ هُوَ اَمَاتَ وَاَحْیَا

and that He is the One who gives death and gives life,
53:45

وَاَنَّهٗ خَلَقَ الزَّوْجَیْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْاُ

and that He creates the pairs, male and female,
53:46

مِنْ نُّطْفَةٍ اِذَا تُمْنٰی

from a sperm-drop when it is poured (into a womb),
53:47

وَاَنَّ عَلَیْهِ النَّشْاَةَ الْاُخْرٰی

and that the second creation is undertaken by Him,
53:48

وَاَنَّهٗ هُوَ اَغْنٰی وَاَقْنٰی

and that He is the One who gives wealth and preserves (it),
53:49

وَاَنَّهٗ هُوَ رَبُّ الشِّعْرٰی

and that He is the One who is the Lord of Sirius (the star worshipped by pagans),
53:50

وَاَنَّهٗۤ اَهْلَكَ عَادَا لْاُوْلٰی

and that He has destroyed the earlier ‘Ād,
53:51

وَثَمُوْدَاۡ فَمَاۤ اَبْقٰی

and Thamūd, so spared none,
53:52

وَقَوْمَ نُوْحٍ مِّنْ قَبْلُ ؕ اِنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا هُمْ اَظْلَمَ وَاَطْغٰی

and (destroyed) the people of NūH even earlier. Surely they were more unjust and more rebellious.
53:53

وَالْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ اَهْوٰی

And He destroyed the overturned towns (of the people of LūT) also,
53:54

فَغَشّٰىهَا مَا غَشّٰی

so enveloped they were by that which enveloped.
53:55

فَبِاَیِّ اٰلَآءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارٰی

Then concerning which of your Lord’s bounties would you remain in doubt?
53:56

هٰذَا نَذِیْرٌ مِّنَ النُّذُرِ الْاُوْلٰی

This (Prophet) is a warner from the (genus of the) previous warners.
53:57

اَزِفَتِ الْاٰزِفَةُ

The Imminent (Hour of Judgment) has approached.
53:58

لَیْسَ لَهَا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ كَاشِفَةٌ

There is no one, beside Allah, to remove it.
53:59

اَفَمِنْ هٰذَا الْحَدِیْثِ تَعْجَبُوْنَ

Do you then wonder at this discourse,
53:60

وَتَضْحَكُوْنَ وَلَا تَبْكُوْنَ

and laugh (at it), and not weep,
53:61

وَاَنْتُمْ سٰمِدُوْنَ

while you are engaged in vain play?
53:62

فَاسْجُدُوْا لِلّٰهِ وَاعْبُدُوْا

Now, fall down in prostration and worship (Allah).

54. Al-Qamar

54:1

اِقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ

The Hour (of doom) has drawn near, and the moon has split asunder.
54:2

وَاِنْ یَّرَوْا اٰیَةً یُّعْرِضُوْا وَیَقُوْلُوْا سِحْرٌ مُّسْتَمِرٌّ

When these people see a sign, they turn away and say, “(This is) a transient magic.”
54:3

وَكَذَّبُوْا وَاتَّبَعُوْۤا اَهْوَآءَهُمْ وَكُلُّ اَمْرٍ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ

They have rejected (the Truth) and followed their desires, while every matter has to settle (at some time).
54:4

وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ مِّنَ الْاَنْۢبَآءِ مَا فِیْهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ

And there has come to them as much news (of the earlier communities) as it is enough to deter,
54:5

حِكْمَةٌ بَالِغَةٌ فَمَا تُغْنِ النُّذُرُ

(containing) a perfect wisdom. But the warnings are of no avail (to them).
54:6

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ یَوْمَ یَدْعُ الدَّاعِ اِلٰی شَیْءٍ نُّكُرٍ

Therefore, turn aside (O Prophet,) from them. (They will see the reality) on the day in which the caller will call (them) to a gruesome object.
54:7

خُشَّعًا اَبْصَارُهُمْ یَخْرُجُوْنَ مِنَ الْاَجْدَاثِ كَاَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُّنْتَشِرٌ

With their eyes humbled, they will come out of the graves like locusts spread all over,
54:8

مُّهْطِعِیْنَ اِلَی الدَّاعِ ؕ یَقُوْلُ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ هٰذَا یَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ

rushing quickly towards the caller. (On that Day) the disbelievers will say, “This is a hard day.”
54:9

كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوْحٍ فَكَذَّبُوْا عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوْا مَجْنُوْنٌ وَّازْدُجِرَ

The people of NūH denied (the truth) before them. So they rejected Our servant, and said, “(He is) a madman”, and he was (also) threatened (by them).
54:10

فَدَعَا رَبَّهٗۤ اَنِّیْ مَغْلُوْبٌ فَانْتَصِرْ

So he prayed to his Lord saying, “I am overpowered, so defend (me).”
54:11

فَفَتَحْنَاۤ اَبْوَابَ السَّمَآءِ بِمَآءٍ مُّنْهَمِرٍ

So We opened the gates of the sky with water pouring forth profusely,
54:12

وَّفَجَّرْنَا الْاَرْضَ عُیُوْنًا فَالْتَقَی الْمَآءُ عَلٰۤی اَمْرٍ قَدْ قُدِرَ

and We caused the earth to gush forth as springs; so the water (of both kinds) met together for a destined event.
54:13

وَحَمَلْنٰهُ عَلٰی ذَاتِ اَلْوَاحٍ وَّدُسُرٍ

And We caused him (NūH) to board that (ship) which had planks and nails,
54:14

تَجْرِیْ بِاَعْیُنِنَا ۚ جَزَآءً لِّمَنْ كَانَ كُفِرَ

which sailed under Our Eyes, as a reward for the one who was rejected (by the infidels).
54:15

وَلَقَدْ تَّرَكْنٰهَاۤ اٰیَةً فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

And We left it (the ship) as a sign. So, is there one to take lesson?
54:16

فَكَیْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

Then how was My torment and My warnings?
54:17

وَلَقَدْ یَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْاٰنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

Indeed We have made the Qur’ān easy for seeking advice. So, is there one to heed to the advice?
54:18

كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌ فَكَیْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

(The people of) ‘Ād rejected (their prophet). So how was My torment and My warnings?
54:19

اِنَّاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ رِیْحًا صَرْصَرًا فِیْ یَوْمِ نَحْسٍ مُّسْتَمِرٍّ

We did send to them a furious wind in a day of continuous misfortune,
54:20

تَنْزِعُ النَّاسَ ۙ كَاَنَّهُمْ اَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ مُّنْقَعِرٍ

plucking people away, as if they were trunks of uprooted palm-trees.
54:21

فَكَیْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

So how was My torment and My warnings?
54:22

وَلَقَدْ یَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْاٰنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

Indeed We have made the Qur’ān easy for seeking advice. So, is there one to heed to the advice?
54:23

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُوْدُ بِالنُّذُرِ

(The people of) Thamūd rejected the warners.
54:24

فَقَالُوْۤا اَبَشَرًا مِّنَّا وَاحِدًا نَّتَّبِعُهٗۤ ۙ اِنَّاۤ اِذًا لَّفِیْ ضَلٰلٍ وَّسُعُرٍ

So they said, “Shall we follow a single human being from among us? Then we will be in error and insanity.
54:25

ءَاُلْقِیَ الذِّكْرُ عَلَیْهِ مِنْ بَیْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ اَشِرٌ

Is it that the advice has been cast upon him alone out of all of us? No, but he is a bragging liar.”
54:26

سَیَعْلَمُوْنَ غَدًا مَّنِ الْكَذَّابُ الْاَشِرُ

Tomorrow they will know who the bragging liar is!
54:27

اِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا النَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةً لَّهُمْ فَارْتَقِبْهُمْ وَاصْطَبِرْ

We are going to send the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch them (O SāliH,) and keep patience,
54:28

وَنَبِّئْهُمْ اَنَّ الْمَآءَ قِسْمَةٌ بَیْنَهُمْ ۚ كُلُّ شِرْبٍ مُّحْتَضَرٌ

and tell them that water (of the well) is to be shared between them (and the she-camel), so as the right of having water shall be attended by each (alternatively).
54:29

فَنَادَوْا صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطٰی فَعَقَرَ

Then they called their man (to kill the she-camel,) so he undertook (the task) and killed (the she-camel).
54:30

فَكَیْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

So how was My torment and My warnings?
54:31

اِنَّاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ صَیْحَةً وَّاحِدَةً فَكَانُوْا كَهَشِیْمِ الْمُحْتَظِرِ

We sent upon them a single Cry, and they were like crushed leafs of a hedge-builder.
54:32

وَلَقَدْ یَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْاٰنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

Indeed We have made the Qur’ān easy for seeking advice. So, is there one to heed to the advice?
54:33

كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوْطٍ بِالنُّذُرِ

The people of LūT rejected the warners.
54:34

اِنَّاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ حَاصِبًا اِلَّاۤ اٰلَ لُوْطٍ ؕ نَجَّیْنٰهُمْ بِسَحَرٍ

We sent upon them a rain of stones, except the family of LūT whom We saved in the last hours of night,
54:35

نِّعْمَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِنَا ؕ كَذٰلِكَ نَجْزِیْ مَنْ شَكَرَ

as a grace from Us. This is how We reward the one who offers gratitude.
54:36

وَلَقَدْ اَنْذَرَهُمْ بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْا بِالنُّذُرِ

And he (LūT) had certainly warned them of Our grasp, but they disputed the warnings.
54:37

وَلَقَدْ رَاوَدُوْهُ عَنْ ضَیْفِهٖ فَطَمَسْنَاۤ اَعْیُنَهُمْ فَذُوْقُوْا عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

And they had even tried to tempt him against his guests (so that they may snatch them away for bad purpose,) but We blinded their eyes: “Now taste My torment and My warnings!”
54:38

وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُمْ بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ

And on the next morning, a lasting torment overtook them:
54:39

فَذُوْقُوْا عَذَابِیْ وَنُذُرِ

“Now taste My torment and My warnings.”
54:40

وَلَقَدْ یَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْاٰنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

Indeed We have made the Qur’ān easy for seeking advice. So, is there one to heed to the advice?
54:41

وَلَقَدْ جَآءَ اٰلَ فِرْعَوْنَ النُّذُرُ

And the warners came to the family of Fir‘aun (Pharaoh).
54:42

كَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَاَخَذْنٰهُمْ اَخْذَ عَزِیْزٍ مُّقْتَدِرٍ

(But) they rejected all Our signs; so We seized them- a seizure by One Mighty, Powerful.
54:43

اَكُفَّارُكُمْ خَیْرٌ مِّنْ اُولٰٓىِٕكُمْ اَمْ لَكُمْ بَرَآءَةٌ فِی الزُّبُرِ

Are the disbelievers among you in a better position than all of the aforesaid (punished people), or do you have immunity (recorded) in the sacred books?
54:44

اَمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ نَحْنُ جَمِیْعٌ مُّنْتَصِرٌ

Or do they say, “We are a large group, well-defended.”?
54:45

سَیُهْزَمُ الْجَمْعُ وَیُوَلُّوْنَ الدُّبُرَ

Soon this ‘large group’ shall be defeated, and all of them will turn their backs.
54:46

بَلِ السَّاعَةُ مَوْعِدُهُمْ وَالسَّاعَةُ اَدْهٰی وَاَمَرُّ

Rather the Hour (of judgment) is their appointed time (for their full recompense), and the Hour is more calamitous and much more bitter.
54:47

اِنَّ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ وَّسُعُرٍ

Surely the guilty ones are in error and madness.
54:48

یَوْمَ یُسْحَبُوْنَ فِی النَّارِ عَلٰی وُجُوْهِهِمْ ؕ ذُوْقُوْا مَسَّ سَقَرَ

On the Day when they will be dragged into the Fire on their faces, (it will be said to them,) “Taste the touch of Hell.”
54:49

اِنَّا كُلَّ شَیْءٍ خَلَقْنٰهُ بِقَدَرٍ

Verily, We have created every thing according to (Our) predestination.
54:50

وَمَاۤ اَمْرُنَاۤ اِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ كَلَمْحٍ بِالْبَصَرِ

And (implementation of) Our command is no more than a single act like the twinkling of an eye.
54:51

وَلَقَدْ اَهْلَكْنَاۤ اَشْیَاعَكُمْ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ

We have destroyed people like you; so, is there one to take lesson?
54:52

وَكُلُّ شَیْءٍ فَعَلُوْهُ فِی الزُّبُرِ

And every thing they have done is recorded in the books (of deeds).
54:53

وَكُلُّ صَغِیْرٍ وَّكَبِیْرٍ مُّسْتَطَرٌ

And every thing, small and big, is written down.
54:54

اِنَّ الْمُتَّقِیْنَ فِیْ جَنّٰتٍ وَّنَهَرٍ

Of course, the God-fearing will be in gardens and rivers,
54:55

فِیْ مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِنْدَ مَلِیْكٍ مُّقْتَدِرٍ

in a seat of Truth, near to the Omnipotent Sovereign.

will be gathered together for a fixed time of a specified Day.
56:51

ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ اَیُّهَا الضَّآلُّوْنَ الْمُكَذِّبُوْنَ

Then O you, the erring, the denying people,
56:52

لَاٰكِلُوْنَ مِنْ شَجَرٍ مِّنْ زَقُّوْمٍ

you will have to eat from the tree of zaqqūm,
56:53

فَمَالِـُٔوْنَ مِنْهَا الْبُطُوْنَ

and to fill with it the bellies,
56:54

فَشٰرِبُوْنَ عَلَیْهِ مِنَ الْحَمِیْمِ

then on top of it you will have to drink boiling water,
56:55

فَشٰرِبُوْنَ شُرْبَ الْهِیْمِ

and to drink like camels suffering from the disease of over-thirst.
56:56

هٰذَا نُزُلُهُمْ یَوْمَ الدِّیْنِ

This will be their welcome entertainment on the Day of Requital.
56:57

نَحْنُ خَلَقْنٰكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُوْنَ

We have created you; then why do you not believe in it?
56:58

اَفَرَءَیْتُمْ مَّا تُمْنُوْنَ

So, tell Me about the semen you drop (in the wombs):
56:59

ءَاَنْتُمْ تَخْلُقُوْنَهٗۤ اَمْ نَحْنُ الْخٰلِقُوْنَ

Is it you who create it, or are We the Creator?
56:60

نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَیْنَكُمُ الْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوْقِیْنَ

We have appointed (the times of) death among you, and We cannot be frustrated
56:61

عَلٰۤی اَنْ نُّبَدِّلَ اَمْثَالَكُمْ وَنُنْشِئَكُمْ فِیْ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ

from replacing you with others like you, and creating you (afresh) in that (form) which you do not know.
56:62

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ النَّشْاَةَ الْاُوْلٰی فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ

And you certainly know the first creation; then why do you not take lesson?
56:63

اَفَرَءَیْتُمْ مَّا تَحْرُثُوْنَ

Well, tell Me about that (seed) which you sow:
56:64

ءَاَنْتُمْ تَزْرَعُوْنَهٗۤ اَمْ نَحْنُ الزّٰرِعُوْنَ

Is it you who grow it, or are We the One who grows?
56:65

لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنٰهُ حُطَامًا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُوْنَ

If We so will, We can certainly make it crumbled, and you will remain wondering,
56:66

اِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُوْنَ

(and saying,) “We are laden with debt,
56:67

بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُوْمُوْنَ

rather we are totally deprived.”
56:68

اَفَرَءَیْتُمُ الْمَآءَ الَّذِیْ تَشْرَبُوْنَ

Again, tell Me about the water you drink:
56:69

ءَاَنْتُمْ اَنْزَلْتُمُوْهُ مِنَ الْمُزْنِ اَمْ نَحْنُ الْمُنْزِلُوْنَ

Is it you who have brought it down from the clouds, or are We the One who sends (it) down?
56:70

لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنٰهُ اُجَاجًا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُوْنَ

If We so will, We can make it bitter in taste. So why do you not offer gratitude?
56:71

اَفَرَءَیْتُمُ النَّارَ الَّتِیْ تُوْرُوْنَ

Now tell Me about the fire you kindle:
56:72

ءَاَنْتُمْ اَنْشَاْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَاۤ اَمْ نَحْنُ الْمُنْشِـُٔوْنَ

Is it you who have originated its tree, or are We the Originator?
56:73

نَحْنُ جَعَلْنٰهَا تَذْكِرَةً وَّمَتَاعًا لِّلْمُقْوِیْنَ

We have made it a reminder (of Our infinite power, and of the fire of Hell) and a benefit for travelers in deserts.
56:74

فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِیْمِ

So, proclaim purity of the name of your Lord, the Magnificent.
56:75

فَلَاۤ اُقْسِمُ بِمَوٰقِعِ النُّجُوْمِ

So, I swear by the setting places of the stars,
56:76

وَاِنَّهٗ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ عَظِیْمٌ

-and indeed it is a great oath, if you are to appreciate-
56:77

اِنَّهٗ لَقُرْاٰنٌ كَرِیْمٌ

it is surely the Noble Qur’ān,
56:78

فِیْ كِتٰبٍ مَّكْنُوْنٍ

(recorded already) in a protected book (i.e. the Preserved Tablet)
56:79

لَّا یَمَسُّهٗۤ اِلَّا الْمُطَهَّرُوْنَ

that is not touched except by the purified ones (the angels).
56:80

تَنْزِیْلٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

- a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
56:81

اَفَبِهٰذَا الْحَدِیْثِ اَنْتُمْ مُّدْهِنُوْنَ

Is it this discourse that you take lightly,
56:82

وَتَجْعَلُوْنَ رِزْقَكُمْ اَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُوْنَ

and take your denial as your livelihood?
56:83

فَلَوْلَاۤ اِذَا بَلَغَتِ الْحُلْقُوْمَ

So why (do you) not (intervene) when the soul (of a dying person) reaches the throat,
56:84

وَاَنْتُمْ حِیْنَىِٕذٍ تَنْظُرُوْنَ

and you are watching?
56:85

وَنَحْنُ اَقْرَبُ اِلَیْهِ مِنْكُمْ وَلٰكِنْ لَّا تُبْصِرُوْنَ

And We are closer to him than you, but you do not perceive.
56:86

فَلَوْلَاۤ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ غَیْرَ مَدِیْنِیْنَ

So, if you are not going to be recompensed (in the Hereafter for your deeds), then why do you not
56:87

تَرْجِعُوْنَهَاۤ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

bring the soul back, if you are truthful?
56:88

فَاَمَّاۤ اِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِیْنَ

So, in case he (the dying person) is from among those blessed with nearness,
56:89

فَرَوْحٌ وَّرَیْحَانٌ ۙ۬ وَّجَنَّتُ نَعِیْمٍ

then (for him) there is comfort and fragrance and garden of bliss.
56:90

وَاَمَّاۤ اِنْ كَانَ مِنْ اَصْحٰبِ الْیَمِیْنِ

And in case he is from among the People of the Right,
56:91

فَسَلٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنْ اَصْحٰبِ الْیَمِیْنِ

then, (it will be said to him,) “Peace is for you, as you are one of the People of the Right.”
56:92

وَاَمَّاۤ اِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُكَذِّبِیْنَ الضَّآلِّیْنَ

But if he is one of the deniers, the astray,
56:93

فَنُزُلٌ مِّنْ حَمِیْمٍ

then (for him) there is entertainment from boiling water,
56:94

وَّتَصْلِیَةُ جَحِیْمٍ

and burning in the Hell.
56:95

اِنَّ هٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ الْیَقِیْنِ

Indeed this is certainty in its true sense.
56:96

فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِیْمِ

So, proclaim purity of the name of your Lord, the Magnificent.

57. Al-Hadid

57:1

سَبَّحَ لِلّٰهِ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ

All that is in the heavens and the earth proclaims Allah’s purity, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.

To Him belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He gives life and brings death, and He is Powerful to do any thing.
57:3

هُوَ الْاَوَّلُ وَالْاٰخِرُ وَالظَّاهِرُ وَالْبَاطِنُ ۚ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌ

He is the First and the Last, and the Manifest and the Hidden, and He is All-Knowing about every thing.
57:4

هُوَ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ فِیْ سِتَّةِ اَیَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوٰی عَلَی الْعَرْشِ ؕ یَعْلَمُ مَا یَلِجُ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا یَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا وَمَا یَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ وَمَا یَعْرُجُ فِیْهَا ؕ وَهُوَ مَعَكُمْ اَیْنَ مَا كُنْتُمْ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِیْرٌ

He is the One who created the heavens and the earth in six days, then He positioned Himself on the Throne. He knows whatever goes into the earth and whatever comes out from it, and whatever descends from the sky, and whatever ascends thereto. He is with you wherever you are, and Allah is watchful of whatever you do.
57:5

لَهٗ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ وَاِلَی اللّٰهِ تُرْجَعُ الْاُمُوْرُ

To Him belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and to Allah all matters are returned.
57:6

یُوْلِجُ الَّیْلَ فِی النَّهَارِ وَیُوْلِجُ النَّهَارَ فِی الَّیْلِ ؕ وَهُوَ عَلِیْمٌۢ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُوْرِ

He makes the night enter into the day, and makes the day enter into the night, and He is All-Knowing about whatever lies in the hearts.
57:7

اٰمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُوْلِهٖ وَاَنْفِقُوْا مِمَّا جَعَلَكُمْ مُّسْتَخْلَفِیْنَ فِیْهِ ؕ فَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مِنْكُمْ وَاَنْفَقُوْا لَهُمْ اَجْرٌ كَبِیْرٌ

Believe in Allah and His Messenger, and spend out of that (wealth) in which He has appointed you as deputies. So, for those of you who have believed and spent (in Allah’s way), there is a big reward.
57:8

وَمَا لَكُمْ لَا تُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاللّٰهِ ۚ وَالرَّسُوْلُ یَدْعُوْكُمْ لِتُؤْمِنُوْا بِرَبِّكُمْ وَقَدْ اَخَذَ مِیْثَاقَكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ

What is wrong with you that you do not believe in Allah, while the Messenger invites you to believe in your Lord, and He has taken your covenant, if you are to believe?
57:9

هُوَ الَّذِیْ یُنَزِّلُ عَلٰی عَبْدِهٖۤ اٰیٰتٍۢ بَیِّنٰتٍ لِّیُخْرِجَكُمْ مِّنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَی النُّوْرِ ؕ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِكُمْ لَرَءُوْفٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

He is the One who reveals clear verses to His servant, so that He brings you out from layers of darkness into the light. And to you, Allah is Very-Kind indeed, Very-Merciful.
57:10

وَمَا لَكُمْ اَلَّا تُنْفِقُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ وَلِلّٰهِ مِیْرَاثُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ ؕ لَا یَسْتَوِیْ مِنْكُمْ مَّنْ اَنْفَقَ مِنْ قَبْلِ الْفَتْحِ وَقٰتَلَ ؕ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ اَعْظَمُ دَرَجَةً مِّنَ الَّذِیْنَ اَنْفَقُوْا مِنْ بَعْدُ وَقٰتَلُوْاؕ وَكُلًّا وَّعَدَ اللّٰهُ الْحُسْنٰی ؕ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِیْرٌ

And what is wrong with you that you should not spend in the way of Allah, while to Allah belongs the inheritance of the heavens and the earth? Those who spent before the Conquest (of Makkah) and fought are not at par (with others). Those are much greater in rank than those who spent later and fought, though Allah has promised the good (reward) for each. Allah is well aware of what you do.
57:11

مَنْ ذَا الَّذِیْ یُقْرِضُ اللّٰهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا فَیُضٰعِفَهٗ لَهٗ وَلَهٗۤ اَجْرٌ كَرِیْمٌ

Who is there to advance a loan, a good loan, to Allah so that He multiplies it for him, and he may have a noble reward?
57:12

یَوْمَ تَرَی الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَالْمُؤْمِنٰتِ یَسْعٰی نُوْرُهُمْ بَیْنَ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَبِاَیْمَانِهِمْ بُشْرٰىكُمُ الْیَوْمَ جَنّٰتٌ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَا ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِیْمُ

On the Day when you will see the believing men and the believing women, their light proceeding in front of them and to their right hands, (it will be said to them,) “Good news for you today! Gardens beneath which rivers flow, to live therein forever! That is the great achievement,
57:13

یَوْمَ یَقُوْلُ الْمُنٰفِقُوْنَ وَالْمُنٰفِقٰتُ لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا انْظُرُوْنَا نَقْتَبِسْ مِنْ نُّوْرِكُمْ ۚ قِیْلَ ارْجِعُوْا وَرَآءَكُمْ فَالْتَمِسُوْا نُوْرًا ؕ فَضُرِبَ بَیْنَهُمْ بِسُوْرٍ لَّهٗ بَابٌ ؕ بَاطِنُهٗ فِیْهِ الرَّحْمَةُ وَظَاهِرُهٗ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ الْعَذَابُ

- the Day when the hypocrite men and hypocrite women will say to those who believe, “Wait for us, so that we may have a share from your light.”It will be said (to them), “Go back to your rear, and search for light.” Then a wall will be placed between them, which will have a gate. In its inner side, there will be the divine mercy, while towards its outer side, there will be the divine punishment.
57:14

یُنَادُوْنَهُمْ اَلَمْ نَكُنْ مَّعَكُمْ ؕ قَالُوْا بَلٰی وَلٰكِنَّكُمْ فَتَنْتُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْ وَتَرَبَّصْتُمْ وَارْتَبْتُمْ وَغَرَّتْكُمُ الْاَمَانِیُّ حَتّٰی جَآءَ اَمْرُ اللّٰهِ وَغَرَّكُمْ بِاللّٰهِ الْغَرُوْرُ

They (the hypocrites) will call out to them (the believers), “Were we not with you?” They will say, “Yes, (you were,) but you led your souls to a wrong way, and kept waiting (for an evil end to the Muslims), and remained in doubt, and were deluded by fancies, until Allah’s command came to pass, and you were deceived about Allah by the Big Deceiver (Iblīs).
57:15

فَالْیَوْمَ لَا یُؤْخَذُ مِنْكُمْ فِدْیَةٌ وَّلَا مِنَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ؕ مَاْوٰىكُمُ النَّارُ ؕ هِیَ مَوْلٰىكُمْ ؕ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِیْرُ

So, no ransom will be accepted from you today, nor from those who disbelieved (openly). Your abode is the Fire, and it is an evil end.”
57:16

اَلَمْ یَاْنِ لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اَنْ تَخْشَعَ قُلُوْبُهُمْ لِذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ الْحَقِّ ۙ وَلَا یَكُوْنُوْا كَالَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَطَالَ عَلَیْهِمُ الْاَمَدُ فَقَسَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ ؕ وَكَثِیْرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فٰسِقُوْنَ

Has the time not yet come for those who believe that their hearts should be humble for the remembrance of Allah and for the truth that has descended (through revelation)? They must not be like those to whom the Book was given before, but a long period passed on them (in which they did not repent), therefore their hearts became hard, and (thus) many of them are sinners.
57:17

اِعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ یُحْیِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا ؕ قَدْ بَیَّنَّا لَكُمُ الْاٰیٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَ

Know well that Allah revives the land after its death. We have made the signs clear for you, so that you may understand.
57:18

اِنَّ الْمُصَّدِّقِیْنَ وَالْمُصَّدِّقٰتِ وَاَقْرَضُوا اللّٰهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا یُّضٰعَفُ لَهُمْ وَلَهُمْ اَجْرٌ كَرِیْمٌ

Surely those men who give Sadaqah (alms) and those women who give Sadaqah and have advanced a good loan to Allah, for them it will be multiplied, and for them there is a noble reward.
57:19

وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَرُسُلِهٖۤ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّیْقُوْنَ ۖۗ وَالشُّهَدَآءُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ ؕ لَهُمْ اَجْرُهُمْ وَنُوْرُهُمْ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَكَذَّبُوْا بِاٰیٰتِنَاۤ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ اَصْحٰبُ الْجَحِیْمِ

And those who believed in Allah and His messengers, - those are the Siddīqs (the most righteous after prophets) and the Shuhadā’ (martyrs) in the sight of your Lord. For them shall be their reward and their light. As for those who disbelieved and rejected Our verses, they are the inmates of Hell.
57:20

اِعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّمَا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا لَعِبٌ وَّلَهْوٌ وَّزِیْنَةٌ وَّتَفَاخُرٌ بَیْنَكُمْ وَتَكَاثُرٌ فِی الْاَمْوَالِ وَالْاَوْلَادِ ؕ كَمَثَلِ غَیْثٍ اَعْجَبَ الْكُفَّارَ نَبَاتُهٗ ثُمَّ یَهِیْجُ فَتَرٰىهُ مُصْفَرًّا ثُمَّ یَكُوْنُ حُطَامًا ؕ وَفِی الْاٰخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ شَدِیْدٌ ۙ وَّمَغْفِرَةٌ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَرِضْوَانٌ ؕ وَمَا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَاۤ اِلَّا مَتَاعُ الْغُرُوْرِ

Know well that the worldly life is but a play and an amusement, and a show of beauty, and exchange of boastful claims between you, and a competition of increase in riches and children. (All this is) like a rain, the growth of which attracts the farmers, then it withers, and you see it turning yellow, then it becomes straw. And in the Hereafter there is a severe punishment (for the disbelievers), and forgiveness from Allah and (Allah’s) pleasure (for the believers and the righteous). The worldly life is nothing but a material of delusion.
57:21

سَابِقُوْۤا اِلٰی مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا كَعَرْضِ السَّمَآءِ وَالْاَرْضِ ۙ اُعِدَّتْ لِلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَرُسُلِهٖ ؕ ذٰلِكَ فَضْلُ اللّٰهِ یُؤْتِیْهِ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِیْمِ

Compete each other in proceeding towards forgiveness from your Lord and to Paradise the width of which is like the width of the sky and the earth. It has been prepared for those who believe in Allah and His messengers. That is the bounty of Allah; He gives it to whomsoever He Wills and Allah is the Lord of the great bounty.
57:22

مَاۤ اَصَابَ مِنْ مُّصِیْبَةٍ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَا فِیْۤ اَنْفُسِكُمْ اِلَّا فِیْ كِتٰبٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ نَّبْرَاَهَا ؕ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرٌ

No calamity befalls the earth or your own selves, but it is (pre-destined) in a Book before We bring it into being, -Indeed it is easy for Allah.
57:23

لِّكَیْلَا تَاْسَوْا عَلٰی مَا فَاتَكُمْ وَلَا تَفْرَحُوْا بِمَاۤ اٰتٰىكُمْ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ لَا یُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُوْرِ

- so that you may neither grieve on what has escaped you, nor over-exult on what He has given to you. And Allah does not love any self-admirer, over-proud,
57:24

لَّذِیْنَ یَبْخَلُوْنَ وَیَاْمُرُوْنَ النَّاسَ بِالْبُخْلِ ؕ وَمَنْ یَّتَوَلَّ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْغَنِیُّ الْحَمِیْدُ

-those who are miserly and bid others to be miserly. And whoever turns away, then Allah is the All-Independent, the Ever-Praised.
57:25

لَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ وَاَنْزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ وَالْمِیْزَانَ لِیَقُوْمَ النَّاسُ بِالْقِسْطِ ۚ وَاَنْزَلْنَا الْحَدِیْدَ فِیْهِ بَاْسٌ شَدِیْدٌ وَّمَنَافِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلِیَعْلَمَ اللّٰهُ مَنْ یَّنْصُرُهٗ وَرُسُلَهٗ بِالْغَیْبِ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ قَوِیٌّ عَزِیْزٌ

We have indeed sent Our messengers with clear proofs, and sent down with them the Book and the Balance, so that people may uphold equity. And We sent down iron in which there is strong power, and benefits for the people; and (We did it) so that Allah knows the one who helps Him and His messengers without seeing (Him). Surely Allah is Strong, Mighty.
57:26

وَلَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا وَّاِبْرٰهِیْمَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِیْ ذُرِّیَّتِهِمَا النُّبُوَّةَ وَالْكِتٰبَ فَمِنْهُمْ مُّهْتَدٍ ۚ وَكَثِیْرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فٰسِقُوْنَ

Indeed We sent NūH and Ibrāhīm, and kept the Book and prophet-hood (continuing) in their progeny. So, some of those (to whom they were sent) were on the right path, and many of them were sinners.
57:27

ثُمَّ قَفَّیْنَا عَلٰۤی اٰثَارِهِمْ بِرُسُلِنَا وَقَفَّیْنَا بِعِیْسَی ابْنِ مَرْیَمَ وَاٰتَیْنٰهُ الْاِنْجِیْلَ ۙ۬ وَجَعَلْنَا فِیْ قُلُوْبِ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّبَعُوْهُ رَاْفَةً وَّرَحْمَةً ؕ وَرَهْبَانِیَّةَ بْتَدَعُوْهَا مَا كَتَبْنٰهَا عَلَیْهِمْ اِلَّا ابْتِغَآءَ رِضْوَانِ اللّٰهِ فَمَا رَعَوْهَا حَقَّ رِعَایَتِهَا ۚ فَاٰتَیْنَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مِنْهُمْ اَجْرَهُمْ ۚ وَكَثِیْرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فٰسِقُوْنَ

Then We made Our messengers follow them one after the other, then We sent after them ‘Īsā, the son of Maryam (Jesus, son of Mary), and gave him the Injīl, and placed compassion and mercy in the hearts of his followers. As for monasticism, it was invented by them; We did not ordain it for them, but (they adopted it) to seek Allah’s pleasure, then could not observe it as was due. So We gave the believers from among them their reward. And many of them are sinners.
57:28

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَاٰمِنُوْا بِرَسُوْلِهٖ یُؤْتِكُمْ كِفْلَیْنِ مِنْ رَّحْمَتِهٖ وَیَجْعَلْ لَّكُمْ نُوْرًا تَمْشُوْنَ بِهٖ وَیَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

O you who believe, fear Allah, and believe in His Messenger, and He will give you two shares (of reward) out of His mercy, and will make for you a light whereby you will walk, and will forgive you- And Allah is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.
57:29

لِّئَلَّا یَعْلَمَ اَهْلُ الْكِتٰبِ اَلَّا یَقْدِرُوْنَ عَلٰی شَیْءٍ مِّنْ فَضْلِ اللّٰهِ وَاَنَّ الْفَضْلَ بِیَدِ اللّٰهِ یُؤْتِیْهِ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِیْمِ

- so that the People of the Book may know that they have no control over any thing from Allah’s bounty, and that bounty is in Allah’s hand; He gives it to whom He wills, and Allah is the Lord of the great bounty.
