431 Ayahs

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

67. Al-Mulk

67:1

تَبٰرَكَ الَّذِیْ بِیَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ ؗ وَهُوَ عَلٰی كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرُ

Glorious is the One in whose hand is the Kingdom (of the whole universe), and He is powerful over every thing,
67:2

لَّذِیْ خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَیٰوةَ لِیَبْلُوَكُمْ اَیُّكُمْ اَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ؕ وَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْغَفُوْرُ

the One who created death and life, so that He may test you as to which of you is better in his deeds. And He is the All-Mighty, the Most-Forgiving,
67:3

الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمٰوٰتٍ طِبَاقًا ؕ مَا تَرٰی فِیْ خَلْقِ الرَّحْمٰنِ مِنْ تَفٰوُتٍ ؕ فَارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ ۙ هَلْ تَرٰی مِنْ فُطُوْرٍ

who has created seven skies, one over the other. You will see nothing out of proportion in the creation of the RaHmān (the All-Merciful Allah). So, cast your eye again. Do you see any rifts?
67:4

ثُمَّ ارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ كَرَّتَیْنِ یَنْقَلِبْ اِلَیْكَ الْبَصَرُ خَاسِئًا وَّهُوَ حَسِیْرٌ

Then cast your eye again and again, and the eye will come back to you abased, in a state of weariness.
67:5

وَلَقَدْ زَیَّنَّا السَّمَآءَ الدُّنْیَا بِمَصَابِیْحَ وَجَعَلْنٰهَا رُجُوْمًا لِّلشَّیٰطِیْنِ وَاَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ السَّعِیْرِ

And We have decorated the nearest sky with lamps, and have made them devices to stone the devils, and We have prepared for them the punishment of Hell.
67:6

وَلِلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ ؕ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِیْرُ

And for those who disbelieved in their Lord, there is the punishment of Jahannam , and it is an evil end.
67:7

اِذَاۤ اُلْقُوْا فِیْهَا سَمِعُوْا لَهَا شَهِیْقًا وَّهِیَ تَفُوْرُ

When they will be thrown in it, they will hear a terrible sound from it, and it will be boiling,
67:8

تَكَادُ تَمَیَّزُ مِنَ الْغَیْظِ ؕ كُلَّمَاۤ اُلْقِیَ فِیْهَا فَوْجٌ سَاَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَاۤ اَلَمْ یَاْتِكُمْ نَذِیْرٌ

seeming as if it will burst out of fury. Whenever a group is thrown into it, its keepers will say to them, “Had no warner come to you?”
67:9

قَالُوْا بَلٰی قَدْ جَآءَنَا نَذِیْرٌ ۙ۬ فَكَذَّبْنَا وَقُلْنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللّٰهُ مِنْ شَیْءٍ ۖۚ اِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ كَبِیْرٍ

They will say, “Yes, a warner had come to us, but We had rejected, and said, ‘Allah has not revealed anything. You are only in great error.’”
67:10

وَقَالُوْا لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ اَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِیْۤ اَصْحٰبِ السَّعِیْرِ

And they will say, “Had we been listening or understanding, we would not have been among the people of the Hell.”
67:11

فَاعْتَرَفُوْا بِذَنْۢبِهِمْ ۚ فَسُحْقًا لِّاَصْحٰبِ السَّعِیْرِ

Thus they will confess their sin. So, away with the people of the Hell!
67:12

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ یَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَیْبِ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَّاَجْرٌ كَبِیْرٌ

Surely, for those who have awe of their Lord without seeing (Him), there is forgiveness and a big reward.
67:13

وَاَسِرُّوْا قَوْلَكُمْ اَوِ اجْهَرُوْا بِهٖ ؕ اِنَّهٗ عَلِیْمٌۢ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُوْرِ

Whether you keep your talk secret or make it aloud, He knows well what lies in the hearts.
67:14

اَلَا یَعْلَمُ مَنْ خَلَقَ ؕ وَهُوَ اللَّطِیْفُ الْخَبِیْرُ

Is it (imaginable) that He who has created (them) will not have (such a) knowledge, while He is the Knower of the finest things, the All-Aware?
67:15

هُوَ الَّذِیْ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْاَرْضَ ذَلُوْلًا فَامْشُوْا فِیْ مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوْا مِنْ رِّزْقِهٖ ؕ وَاِلَیْهِ النُّشُوْرُ

He is the One who has made the earth subjugated for you, so walk on its shoulders, and eat out of His provision, and to Him is the Resurrection.
67:16

ءَاَمِنْتُمْ مَّنْ فِی السَّمَآءِ اَنْ یَّخْسِفَ بِكُمُ الْاَرْضَ فَاِذَا هِیَ تَمُوْرُ

Have you become fearless of Him who is in the sky if He makes you sink into the earth, and it starts trembling at once?
67:17

اَمْ اَمِنْتُمْ مَّنْ فِی السَّمَآءِ اَنْ یُّرْسِلَ عَلَیْكُمْ حَاصِبًا ؕ فَسَتَعْلَمُوْنَ كَیْفَ نَذِیْرِ

Or, have you become fearless of Him who is in the sky if He looses a violent wind with stones against you? So, you will soon come to know how was My warning!
67:18

وَلَقَدْ كَذَّبَ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَكَیْفَ كَانَ نَكِیْرِ

And of course, those before them (also) rejected (the truth). So, how was My censure?
67:19

اَوَلَمْ یَرَوْا اِلَی الطَّیْرِ فَوْقَهُمْ صٰٓفّٰتٍ وَّیَقْبِضْنَ ؔؕۘ مَا یُمْسِكُهُنَّ اِلَّا الرَّحْمٰنُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ بَصِیْرٌ

Have they not looked to the birds above them spreading their wings, and (at times) they fold (them) in? No one holds them up except the RaHmān (the All-Merciful Allah). Surely He is watchful of every thing.
67:20

اَمَّنْ هٰذَا الَّذِیْ هُوَ جُنْدٌ لَّكُمْ یَنْصُرُكُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ الرَّحْمٰنِ ؕ اِنِ الْكٰفِرُوْنَ اِلَّا فِیْ غُرُوْرٍ

Now, who is there to act as a force for you to help you, except the RaHmān ? The disbelievers are in nothing but delusion.
67:21

اَمَّنْ هٰذَا الَّذِیْ یَرْزُقُكُمْ اِنْ اَمْسَكَ رِزْقَهٗ ۚ بَلْ لَّجُّوْا فِیْ عُتُوٍّ وَّنُفُوْرٍ

Or, who is there to give you sustenance, if He withholds His sustenance? Still, they persist in rebellion and aversion.
67:22

اَفَمَنْ یَّمْشِیْ مُكِبًّا عَلٰی وَجْهِهٖۤ اَهْدٰۤی اَمَّنْ یَّمْشِیْ سَوِیًّا عَلٰی صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ

Then, is the one who walks falling down (frequently) on his face more right or the one who walks properly on a straight path?
67:23

قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِیْۤ اَنْشَاَكُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالْاَبْصَارَ وَالْاَفْـِٕدَةَ ؕ قَلِیْلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُوْنَ

Say, “He is the One who has originated you, and made for you ears and eyes and hearts. How little you pay gratitude!”
67:24

قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِیْ ذَرَاَكُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَاِلَیْهِ تُحْشَرُوْنَ

Say, “He is the One who has scattered you on the earth, and to Him you will be assembled.”
67:25

وَیَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰی هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ

And they say, “When will this promise (of the Day of Judgment) be fulfilled, if you are true?”
67:26

قُلْ اِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ ۪ وَاِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ

Say, “The knowledge (of that Day) is only with Allah, and I am only a plain warner.
67:27

فَلَمَّا رَاَوْهُ زُلْفَةً سِیْٓـَٔتْ وُجُوْهُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَقِیْلَ هٰذَا الَّذِیْ كُنْتُمْ بِهٖ تَدَّعُوْنَ

Then, once they will see it approaching, the faces of the disbelievers will be turned awkward, and it will be said, “This is what you were calling for!”
67:28

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ اَهْلَكَنِیَ اللّٰهُ وَمَنْ مَّعِیَ اَوْ رَحِمَنَا ۙ فَمَنْ یُّجِیْرُ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ اَلِیْمٍ

Say, “Tell me, if Allah destroys me and those who are with me (as you wish), or has mercy on us (as we wish), who can (in either case) save the disbelievers from a painful punishment?”
67:29

قُلْ هُوَ الرَّحْمٰنُ اٰمَنَّا بِهٖ وَعَلَیْهِ تَوَكَّلْنَا ۚ فَسَتَعْلَمُوْنَ مَنْ هُوَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ

Say, “He is the RaHmān; we have believed in Him, and in Him we placed our trust. So, you will soon come to know who is in open error.”
67:30

قُلْ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ اَصْبَحَ مَآؤُكُمْ غَوْرًا فَمَنْ یَّاْتِیْكُمْ بِمَآءٍ مَّعِیْنٍ

Say, “Tell me, Should your water vanish into the earth, who will bring you a flowing (stream of) water?

68. Al-Qalam

68:1

نٓ وَالْقَلَمِ وَمَا یَسْطُرُوْنَ

Nūn , by the pen and what they write,
68:2

مَاۤ اَنْتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُوْنٍ

with the grace of your Lord, you are not insane.
68:3

وَاِنَّ لَكَ لَاَجْرًا غَیْرَ مَمْنُوْنٍ

And you will definitely have a reward that will never end.
68:4

وَاِنَّكَ لَعَلٰی خُلُقٍ عَظِیْمٍ

And you are surely on an excellent standard of character.
68:5

فَسَتُبْصِرُ وَیُبْصِرُوْنَ

So, you will see, and they will see
68:6

بِاَیِّىكُمُ الْمَفْتُوْنُ

which of you is demented.
68:7

اِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْ سَبِیْلِهٖ ۪ وَهُوَ اَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِیْنَ

Surely your Lord knows best who has strayed from his way, and He is well aware of those who are on the right path.
68:8

فَلَا تُطِعِ الْمُكَذِّبِیْنَ

So, do not obey those who reject (the true faith.)
68:9

وَدُّوْا لَوْ تُدْهِنُ فَیُدْهِنُوْنَ

They wish that you become flexible (in your faith), so that they should become flexible (in their hostile attitude.)
68:10

وَلَا تُطِعْ كُلَّ حَلَّافٍ مَّهِیْنٍ

And do not obey any contemptible one who swears much,
68:11

هَمَّازٍ مَّشَّآءٍ بِنَمِیْمٍ

a slanderer who goes about with calumnies,
68:12

مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَیْرِ مُعْتَدٍ اَثِیْمٍ

one who prevents good, (and who is) transgressor, sinful,
68:13

عُتُلٍّ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ زَنِیْمٍ

harsh, (and) after all that, notorious,
68:14

اَنْ كَانَ ذَا مَالٍ وَّبَنِیْنَ

(do not obey such a person merely) because he is a man of wealth and sons.
68:15

اِذَا تُتْلٰی عَلَیْهِ اٰیٰتُنَا قَالَ اَسَاطِیْرُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ

When Our verses are recited to him, he says, “(These are) the tales of the ancient.”
68:16

سَنَسِمُهٗ عَلَی الْخُرْطُوْمِ

We will soon brand him on the snout.
68:17

اِنَّا بَلَوْنٰهُمْ كَمَا بَلَوْنَاۤ اَصْحٰبَ الْجَنَّةِ ۚ اِذْ اَقْسَمُوْا لَیَصْرِمُنَّهَا مُصْبِحِیْنَ

We have tested them as We had tested the Owners of the Garden, when they had sworn an oath that they would pluck its fruits on the next morning,
68:18

وَلَا یَسْتَثْنُوْنَ

and did not make any exception (by saying inshā’allāh ).
68:19

فَطَافَ عَلَیْهَا طَآىِٕفٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ وَهُمْ نَآىِٕمُوْنَ

Then, there whirled around it a whirl (of calamity) from your Lord, while they were asleep.
68:20

فَاَصْبَحَتْ كَالصَّرِیْمِ

Thus, on the next morning, it was like a harvested field.
68:21

فَتَنَادَوْا مُصْبِحِیْنَ

So, they called out each other as the morning broke,
68:22

اَنِ اغْدُوْا عَلٰی حَرْثِكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰرِمِیْنَ

saying, “Set out early, if you are going to pluck (the fruits).”
68:23

فَانْطَلَقُوْا وَهُمْ یَتَخَافَتُوْنَ

So they set out while they were whispering to each other,
68:24

اَنْ لَّا یَدْخُلَنَّهَا الْیَوْمَ عَلَیْكُمْ مِّسْكِیْنٌ

saying, “Let no poor man enter into it upon you today.”
68:25

وَّغَدَوْا عَلٰی حَرْدٍ قٰدِرِیْنَ

And in early hours they rushed quickly, while they were (assuming themselves) powerful (to pluck the fruits and prevent the poor.)
68:26

فَلَمَّا رَاَوْهَا قَالُوْۤا اِنَّا لَضَآلُّوْنَ

But when they saw it (the place of the ruined garden), they said, “We have missed the way.”
68:27

بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُوْمُوْنَ

(Then, once they realized that the garden is the same, but it has been destroyed, they said,) “No, but we are deprived (of the fruits).”
68:28

قَالَ اَوْسَطُهُمْ اَلَمْ اَقُلْ لَّكُمْ لَوْلَا تُسَبِّحُوْنَ

Said he who was the best among them, “Did I not say to you, ‘Why do you not pronounce tasbīH (Allah’s purity)?”
68:29

قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَ رَبِّنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا ظٰلِمِیْنَ

They said, “We pronounce the purity of our Lord. No doubt, we were wrongdoers.”
68:30

فَاَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلٰی بَعْضٍ یَّتَلَاوَمُوْنَ

Then, (at the beginning,) they started reproaching one another;
68:31

قَالُوْا یٰوَیْلَنَاۤ اِنَّا كُنَّا طٰغِیْنَ

(and at last,) they said, “Woe to us! In fact, we (all) were outrageous.
68:32

عَسٰی رَبُّنَاۤ اَنْ یُّبْدِلَنَا خَیْرًا مِّنْهَاۤ اِنَّاۤ اِلٰی رَبِّنَا رٰغِبُوْنَ

We hope that our Lord will give us in exchange something better than this. Truly we turn to Allah.”
68:33

كَذٰلِكَ الْعَذَابُ ؕ وَلَعَذَابُ الْاٰخِرَةِ اَكْبَرُ ۘ لَوْ كَانُوْا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

In this way the punishment comes. And, of course, the punishment of the Hereafter is even greater, if they but realize!
68:34

اِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِیْنَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ جَنّٰتِ النَّعِیْمِ

Surely, for the God-fearing there are gardens of bliss.
68:35

اَفَنَجْعَلُ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ كَالْمُجْرِمِیْنَ

Otherwise, shall We make the obedient like the sinners?
68:36

مَا لَكُمْ ۥ كَیْفَ تَحْكُمُوْنَ

What has happened to you? How do you judge?
68:37

اَمْ لَكُمْ كِتٰبٌ فِیْهِ تَدْرُسُوْنَ

Do you have a book in which you read
68:38

اِنَّ لَكُمْ فِیْهِ لَمَا تَخَیَّرُوْنَ

that for you there is what you choose?
68:39

اَمْ لَكُمْ اَیْمَانٌ عَلَیْنَا بَالِغَةٌ اِلٰی یَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ ۙ اِنَّ لَكُمْ لَمَا تَحْكُمُوْنَ

Or do you have oaths sworn by Us, remaining effective up to the Day of Judgment, that you will get what you decide?
68:40

سَلْهُمْ اَیُّهُمْ بِذٰلِكَ زَعِیْمٌ

Ask them which of them stands surety for that.
68:41

اَمْ لَهُمْ شُرَكَآءُ ۛۚ فَلْیَاْتُوْا بِشُرَكَآىِٕهِمْ اِنْ كَانُوْا صٰدِقِیْنَ

Or do they have associate-gods (who have guaranteed safety for them)? Then, let them bring their associate-gods, if they are true.
68:42

یَوْمَ یُكْشَفُ عَنْ سَاقٍ وَّیُدْعَوْنَ اِلَی السُّجُوْدِ فَلَا یَسْتَطِیْعُوْنَ

On the Day when the Shin will be exposed, and they will be called upon to prostrate themselves, they will not be able to.
68:43

خَاشِعَةً اَبْصَارُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ ؕ وَقَدْ كَانُوْا یُدْعَوْنَ اِلَی السُّجُوْدِ وَهُمْ سٰلِمُوْنَ

With their eyes downcast, they will be enveloped by ignominy. They used to be called upon to prostrate when they were healthy (but they did not.)
68:44

فَذَرْنِیْ وَمَنْ یُّكَذِّبُ بِهٰذَا الْحَدِیْثِ ؕ سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُمْ مِّنْ حَیْثُ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

So, leave Me alone with those who reject this discourse. We will draw them on little by little (towards Hell) from a way they do not know.
68:45

وَاُمْلِیْ لَهُمْ ؕ اِنَّ كَیْدِیْ مَتِیْنٌ

And I give them respite. Indeed, My plan is firm.
68:46

اَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ اَجْرًا فَهُمْ مِّنْ مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُوْنَ

Is it that you ask them for a fee, due to which they are burdened with debt?
68:47

اَمْ عِنْدَهُمُ الْغَیْبُ فَهُمْ یَكْتُبُوْنَ

Or do they have the (knowledge of the) Unseen, and they write it down?
68:48

فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُنْ كَصَاحِبِ الْحُوْتِ ۘ اِذْ نَادٰی وَهُوَ مَكْظُوْمٌ

So, remain patient with your Lord’s judgment, and be not like the Man of the Fish, he cried out while he was in anguish.
68:49

لَوْلَاۤ اَنْ تَدٰرَكَهٗ نِعْمَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ لَنُبِذَ بِالْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ مَذْمُوْمٌ

Had not a favour from His Lord come to his help, he would have been cast in the wilderness in a reproachable state.
68:50

فَاجْتَبٰىهُ رَبُّهٗ فَجَعَلَهٗ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِیْنَ

Then his Lord chose him, and made him one of the righteous.
68:51

وَاِنْ یَّكَادُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَیُزْلِقُوْنَكَ بِاَبْصَارِهِمْ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا الذِّكْرَ وَیَقُوْلُوْنَ اِنَّهٗ لَمَجْنُوْنٌ

And indeed the disbelievers seem to trip you up with their glances when they hear the Reminder, and say, “He is a madman indeed.”
68:52

وَمَا هُوَ اِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعٰلَمِیْنَ

And it is nothing else but a Reminder for all the worlds.

69. Al-Haqqah

69:1

اَلْحَآقَّةُ

The Imminent Happening!
69:2

مَا الْحَآقَّةُ

What is the Imminent Happening?
69:3

وَمَاۤ اَدْرٰىكَ مَا الْحَآقَّةُ

And what can let you know what the Imminent happening is?
69:4

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُوْدُ وَعَادٌ بِالْقَارِعَةِ

Thamūd and ‘Ād had denied (the happening of) the Shocking Event (the Day of Judgment).
69:5

فَاَمَّا ثَمُوْدُ فَاُهْلِكُوْا بِالطَّاغِیَةِ

As for Thamūd, they were destroyed by that (dreadful cry), which exceeded all limits.
69:6

وَاَمَّا عَادٌ فَاُهْلِكُوْا بِرِیْحٍ صَرْصَرٍ عَاتِیَةٍ

And as for ‘Ād, they were destroyed by a violent windstorm
69:7

سَخَّرَهَا عَلَیْهِمْ سَبْعَ لَیَالٍ وَّثَمٰنِیَةَ اَیَّامٍ ۙ حُسُوْمًاۙ فَتَرَی الْقَوْمَ فِیْهَا صَرْعٰی ۙ كَاَنَّهُمْ اَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ خَاوِیَةٍ

that He imposed on them for seven nights and eight consecutive days; so you could see them thrown on the ground, as if they were trunks of hollow palm-trees.
69:8

فَهَلْ تَرٰی لَهُمْ مِّنْ بَاقِیَةٍ

Now, do you see any remnant of them?
69:9

وَجَآءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَنْ قَبْلَهٗ وَالْمُؤْتَفِكٰتُ بِالْخَاطِئَةِ

And Fir‘aun (Pharaoh) and those before him and the overthrown towns came up with evil,
69:10

فَعَصَوْا رَسُوْلَ رَبِّهِمْ فَاَخَذَهُمْ اَخْذَةً رَّابِیَةً

and they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, so He seized them with an extremely severe seizure.
69:11

اِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا الْمَآءُ حَمَلْنٰكُمْ فِی الْجَارِیَةِ

When the water overflowed (in the Deluge of NūH), We let you (O mankind,) board the floating ship,
69:12

لِنَجْعَلَهَا لَكُمْ تَذْكِرَةً وَّتَعِیَهَاۤ اُذُنٌ وَّاعِیَةٌ

so that We make it a reminder for you, and so that a preserving ear (that hears their story) may preserve it.
69:13

فَاِذَا نُفِخَ فِی الصُّوْرِ نَفْخَةٌ وَّاحِدَةٌ

Then, once the Trumpet will be blown for the first time,
69:14

وَّحُمِلَتِ الْاَرْضُ وَالْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَّاحِدَةً

and the earth and the mountains will be lifted and crushed into pieces with a single blow,
69:15

فَیَوْمَىِٕذٍ وَّقَعَتِ الْوَاقِعَةُ

then on that Day the Happening will happen,
69:16

وَانْشَقَّتِ السَّمَآءُ فَهِیَ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ وَّاهِیَةٌ

and the sky will burst apart, while it will have become frail on that day.
69:17

وَّالْمَلَكُ عَلٰۤی اَرْجَآىِٕهَا ؕ وَیَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ ثَمٰنِیَةٌ

And the angels will be on its borders. And on that Day, the Throne of your Lord will be carried above them by eight (angels).
69:18

یَوْمَىِٕذٍ تُعْرَضُوْنَ لَا تَخْفٰی مِنْكُمْ خَافِیَةٌ

On that day, you will be brought forward in a way that no secret of yours will remain secret.
69:19

فَاَمَّا مَنْ اُوْتِیَ كِتٰبَهٗ بِیَمِیْنِهٖ ۙ فَیَقُوْلُ هَآؤُمُ اقْرَءُوْا كِتٰبِیَهْ

Now, as for him who is given his book in his right hand, he will say (to his colleagues), “Come here, read my book.
69:20

اِنِّیْ ظَنَنْتُ اَنِّیْ مُلٰقٍ حِسَابِیَهْ

I was sure that I would encounter my reckoning.”
69:21

فَهُوَ فِیْ عِیْشَةٍ رَّاضِیَةٍ

So he will be in a well-pleasing life
69:22

فِیْ جَنَّةٍ عَالِیَةٍ

in a lofty garden,
69:23

قُطُوْفُهَا دَانِیَةٌ

the fruits of which will be close at hand.
69:24

كُلُوْا وَاشْرَبُوْا هَنِیْٓـًٔا بِمَاۤ اَسْلَفْتُمْ فِی الْاَیَّامِ الْخَالِیَةِ

(It will be said to such people,) “Eat and drink with pleasure, as a reward for what you did in advance during past days.”
69:25

وَاَمَّا مَنْ اُوْتِیَ كِتٰبَهٗ بِشِمَالِهٖ ۙ۬ فَیَقُوْلُ یٰلَیْتَنِیْ لَمْ اُوْتَ كِتٰبِیَهْ

As for him who will be given his book in his left hand, he will say, “ Oh, would that I had not been given my book,
69:26

وَلَمْ اَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِیَهْ

and I had never known what my account is!
69:27

یٰلَیْتَهَا كَانَتِ الْقَاضِیَةَ

Oh, would that it (death) had been the end of the matter!
69:28

مَاۤ اَغْنٰی عَنِّیْ مَالِیَهْ

My wealth has not been of any use to me.
69:29

هَلَكَ عَنِّیْ سُلْطٰنِیَهْ

My power has gone from me for good.”
69:30

خُذُوْهُ فَغُلُّوْهُ

(Then it will be said to angels,) “Seize him, then put a collar around his neck,
69:31

ثُمَّ الْجَحِیْمَ صَلُّوْهُ

and then, let him burn in the blazing fire.
69:32

ثُمَّ فِیْ سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُوْنَ ذِرَاعًا فَاسْلُكُوْهُ

Thereafter, fasten him with a chain the measure of which is seventy hands.”
69:33

اِنَّهٗ كَانَ لَا یُؤْمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ الْعَظِیْمِ

Indeed, he did not believe in Allah, the Almighty,
69:34

وَلَا یَحُضُّ عَلٰی طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِیْنِ

and did not persuade (others) to feed the needy.
69:35

فَلَیْسَ لَهُ الْیَوْمَ هٰهُنَا حَمِیْمٌ

So, he has no friend here today,
69:36

وَّلَا طَعَامٌ اِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِیْنٍ

nor any food except that which comes out from wounds when washing,
69:37

لَّا یَاْكُلُهٗۤ اِلَّا الْخَاطِـُٔوْنَ

which is eaten by none but the sinners.
69:38

فَلَاۤ اُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُوْنَ

I swear by what you see,
69:39

وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُوْنَ

and what you do not see,
69:40

اِنَّهٗ لَقَوْلُ رَسُوْلٍ كَرِیْمٍ

it is surely the speech of a noble Messenger, (that he conveys from Allah).
69:41

وَّمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ ؕ قَلِیْلًا مَّا تُؤْمِنُوْنَ

and it is not the speech of a poet, (but) little you believe,
69:42

وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ ؕ قَلِیْلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُوْنَ

nor is it the speech of a soothsayer, (but) little you heed to the advice.
69:43

تَنْزِیْلٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ

It is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
69:44

وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَیْنَا بَعْضَ الْاَقَاوِیْلِ

Had he (the prophet) forged some statements in Our name,
69:45

لَاَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِالْیَمِیْنِ

We would have certainly seized him by the right hand,
69:46

ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ الْوَتِیْنَ

and then severed his life-artery,
69:47

فَمَا مِنْكُمْ مِّنْ اَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حٰجِزِیْنَ

and none of you could have saved him from it.
69:48

وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِّلْمُتَّقِیْنَ

It is infact a Reminder for the God-fearing.
69:49

وَاِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ اَنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُّكَذِّبِیْنَ

And, of course, We know that among you there are deniers.
69:50

وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَی الْكٰفِرِیْنَ

And surely, it is a cause of remorse for the disbelievers.
69:51

وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَقُّ الْیَقِیْنِ

And it is surely an absolute truth.
69:52

فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِیْمِ

So, pronounce the purity of the name of your magnificent Lord.

70. Al-Ma'arij

70:1

سَاَلَ سَآىِٕلٌۢ بِعَذَابٍ وَّاقِعٍ

A demanding person has asked for the punishment that is going to befall
70:2

لِّلْكٰفِرِیْنَ لَیْسَ لَهٗ دَافِعٌ

the disbelievers; there is no one to avert it,
70:3

مِّنَ اللّٰهِ ذِی الْمَعَارِجِ

(and it will come) from Allah, the Lord of the stairways,
70:4

تَعْرُجُ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ وَالرُّوْحُ اِلَیْهِ فِیْ یَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهٗ خَمْسِیْنَ اَلْفَ سَنَةٍ

to whom ascend the angels and the Spirit in a day the length of which is fifty thousand years.
70:5

فَاصْبِرْ صَبْرًا جَمِیْلًا

So, observe patience, a good patience.
70:6

اِنَّهُمْ یَرَوْنَهٗ بَعِیْدًا

They see it far off,
70:7

وَّنَرٰىهُ قَرِیْبًا

and We see it near.
70:8

یَوْمَ تَكُوْنُ السَّمَآءُ كَالْمُهْلِ

(This punishment will befall) on the Day when the sky will be like dregs of oil,
70:9

وَتَكُوْنُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ

and the mountains will be like dyed wool,
70:10

وَلَا یَسْـَٔلُ حَمِیْمٌ حَمِیْمًا

and no friend will ask about any friend,
70:11

یُّبَصَّرُوْنَهُمْ ؕ یَوَدُّ الْمُجْرِمُ لَوْ یَفْتَدِیْ مِنْ عَذَابِ یَوْمِىِٕذٍ بِبَنِیْهِ

(though) they will be made to see each other. A guilty person will desire that he may be able to ransom himself from the torment of that day even by his sons,
70:12

وَصَاحِبَتِهٖ وَاَخِیْهِ

and his wife and his brother,
70:13

وَفَصِیْلَتِهِ الَّتِیْ تُـْٔوِیْهِ

and his kindred that sheltered him,
70:14

وَمَنْ فِی الْاَرْضِ جَمِیْعًا ۙ ثُمَّ یُنْجِیْهِ

and all those on earth, then he may redeem himself.
70:15

كَلَّا ؕ اِنَّهَا لَظٰی

By no means! It is the flaming fire
70:16

نَزَّاعَةً لِّلشَّوٰی

that will pull out the skin of the scalp.
70:17

تَدْعُوْا مَنْ اَدْبَرَ وَتَوَلّٰی

It will call him who had turned his back and fled away (from the truth)
70:18

وَجَمَعَ فَاَوْعٰی

and accumulated (wealth) and hoarded (it).
70:19

اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ خُلِقَ هَلُوْعًا

Indeed man is created weak in courage,
70:20

اِذَا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ جَزُوْعًا

very upset when touched by evil,
70:21

وَّاِذَا مَسَّهُ الْخَیْرُ مَنُوْعًا

and very niggard when visited by good (fortune),
70:22

اِلَّا الْمُصَلِّیْنَ

except the performers of Salāh,
70:23

الَّذِیْنَ هُمْ عَلٰی صَلَاتِهِمْ دَآىِٕمُوْنَ

who are regular in their Salāh,
70:24

وَالَّذِیْنَ فِیْۤ اَمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ مَّعْلُوْمٌ

and those in whose riches there is a specified right
70:25

لِّلسَّآىِٕلِ وَالْمَحْرُوْمِ

for the one who asks and the one who is deprived,
70:26

وَالَّذِیْنَ یُصَدِّقُوْنَ بِیَوْمِ الدِّیْنِ

and those who believe in the Day of Judgment as true,
70:27

وَالَّذِیْنَ هُمْ مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّهِمْ مُّشْفِقُوْنَ

and those who are fearful of the torment of their Lord-
70:28

اِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّهِمْ غَیْرُ مَاْمُوْنٍ

-Indeed the torment of their Lord is not something to be fearless from.-
70:29

وَالَّذِیْنَ هُمْ لِفُرُوْجِهِمْ حٰفِظُوْنَ

and those who guard their private parts,
70:30

اِلَّا عَلٰۤی اَزْوَاجِهِمْ اَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَیْمَانُهُمْ فَاِنَّهُمْ غَیْرُ مَلُوْمِیْنَ

except from their wives and those (slave-girls) owned by their hands,- because they are not to be blamed,
70:31

فَمَنِ ابْتَغٰی وَرَآءَ ذٰلِكَ فَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ هُمُ الْعٰدُوْنَ

but the one who seeks (sexual gratification) beyond that, then such people are the transgressors,-
70:32

وَالَّذِیْنَ هُمْ لِاَمٰنٰتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رٰعُوْنَ

and those who are careful about their trusts and covenants,
70:33

وَالَّذِیْنَ هُمْ بِشَهٰدٰتِهِمْ قَآىِٕمُوْنَ

and those who are upright in their testimonies,
70:34

وَالَّذِیْنَ هُمْ عَلٰی صَلَاتِهِمْ یُحَافِظُوْنَ

and those who take due care of their Salāh .
70:35

اُولٰٓىِٕكَ فِیْ جَنّٰتٍ مُّكْرَمُوْنَ

Those will be honoured in gardens (of Jannah ).
70:36

فَمَالِ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا قِبَلَكَ مُهْطِعِیْنَ

So what has happened to those who disbelieve that they are rushing towards you
70:37

عَنِ الْیَمِیْنِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ عِزِیْنَ

from the right and from the left, in groups?
70:38

اَیَطْمَعُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ اَنْ یُّدْخَلَ جَنَّةَ نَعِیْمٍ

Does every one of them aspire to be admitted to the garden of bliss?
70:39

كَلَّا ؕ اِنَّا خَلَقْنٰهُمْ مِّمَّا یَعْلَمُوْنَ

By no means! We have created them from what they know.
70:40

فَلَاۤ اُقْسِمُ بِرَبِّ الْمَشٰرِقِ وَالْمَغٰرِبِ اِنَّا لَقٰدِرُوْنَ

So, I swear by the Lord of the points of sunrise and those of sunset, We are powerful
70:41

عَلٰۤی اَنْ نُّبَدِّلَ خَیْرًا مِّنْهُمْ ۙ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوْقِیْنَ

to bring those better than them in their place, and We are not to be frustrated.
70:42

فَذَرْهُمْ یَخُوْضُوْا وَیَلْعَبُوْا حَتّٰی یُلٰقُوْا یَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِیْ یُوْعَدُوْنَ

So, leave them involved in pastime and play until they encounter their Day, which they are promised,
70:43

یَوْمَ یَخْرُجُوْنَ مِنَ الْاَجْدَاثِ سِرَاعًا كَاَنَّهُمْ اِلٰی نُصُبٍ یُّوْفِضُوْنَ

the Day they will come out of the graves quickly, as if they were rushing toward idols,
70:44

خَاشِعَةً اَبْصَارُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ ؕ ذٰلِكَ الْیَوْمُ الَّذِیْ كَانُوْا یُوْعَدُوْنَ

with their eyes downcast, enveloped by ignominy. That is the Day, which they were being promised.

71. Nuh

71:1

اِنَّاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا نُوْحًا اِلٰی قَوْمِهٖۤ اَنْ اَنْذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ یَّاْتِیَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ

We sent NūH to his people (and said to him): “Warn your people before a painful punishment comes to them.”
71:2

قَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اِنِّیْ لَكُمْ نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ

He said, “O my people, I openly warn you
71:3

اَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَاتَّقُوْهُ وَاَطِیْعُوْنِ

that you must worship Allah, and fear Him, and obey me,
71:4

یَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِّنْ ذُنُوْبِكُمْ وَیُؤَخِّرْكُمْ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّی ؕ اِنَّ اَجَلَ اللّٰهِ اِذَا جَآءَ لَا یُؤَخَّرُ ۘ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ

and Allah will forgive you your sins, and will respite you to an appointed term. Indeed when Allah’s term comes, it is not deferred, if you only know!”
71:5

قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْ دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِیْ لَیْلًا وَّنَهَارًا

He said, “My Lord, I have called my people night and day,
71:6

فَلَمْ یَزِدْهُمْ دُعَآءِیْۤ اِلَّا فِرَارًا

but my call added only to their flight (from the truth).
71:7

وَاِنِّیْ كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوْۤا اَصَابِعَهُمْ فِیْۤ اٰذَانِهِمْ وَاسْتَغْشَوْا ثِیَابَهُمْ وَاَصَرُّوْا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا اسْتِكْبَارًا

Whenever I called them, so that You might forgive them, they put their fingers into their ears, and wrapped their clothes around themselves, and grew obstinate, and waxed proud in extreme arrogance.
71:8

ثُمَّ اِنِّیْ دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا

Then I called them loudly,
71:9

ثُمَّ اِنِّیْۤ اَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ وَاَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ اِسْرَارًا

and then I spoke to them in public and spoke to them in private.
71:10

فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ غَفَّارًا

So I said, ‘Pray to your Lord for your forgiveness,- Indeed He is Very-Forgiving, -
71:11

یُّرْسِلِ السَّمَآءَ عَلَیْكُمْ مِّدْرَارًا

and He will cause the heavens to rain upon you in abundance,
71:12

وَّیُمْدِدْكُمْ بِاَمْوَالٍ وَّبَنِیْنَ وَیَجْعَلْ لَّكُمْ جَنّٰتٍ وَّیَجْعَلْ لَّكُمْ اَنْهٰرًا

and will help you with riches and sons, and will cause gardens to grow for you, and cause rivers to flow for you.
71:13

مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُوْنَ لِلّٰهِ وَقَارًا

What has happened to you that you do not appreciate the Majesty of Allah,
71:14

وَقَدْ خَلَقَكُمْ اَطْوَارًا

while He has created you in different phases?
71:15

اَلَمْ تَرَوْا كَیْفَ خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ سَبْعَ سَمٰوٰتٍ طِبَاقًا

Did you not see how Allah has created seven heavens one upon another,
71:16

وَّجَعَلَ الْقَمَرَ فِیْهِنَّ نُوْرًا وَّجَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا

and has made the moon a light therein, and made the sun a lamp?
71:17

وَاللّٰهُ اَنْۢبَتَكُمْ مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ نَبَاتًا

And Allah has caused you to grow well out of the earth,
71:18

ثُمَّ یُعِیْدُكُمْ فِیْهَا وَیُخْرِجُكُمْ اِخْرَاجًا

then He will send you back into it, and will bring you forth once again.
71:19

وَاللّٰهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْاَرْضَ بِسَاطًا

And Allah has made the earth a spread for you,
71:20

لِّتَسْلُكُوْا مِنْهَا سُبُلًا فِجَاجًا

so that you may go about its broad ways.’”
71:21

قَالَ نُوْحٌ رَّبِّ اِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِیْ وَاتَّبَعُوْا مَنْ لَّمْ یَزِدْهُ مَالُهٗ وَوَلَدُهٗۤ اِلَّا خَسَارًا

And said NūH, “My Lord, they disobeyed me, and followed him whose wealth and children added nothing to him but loss,
71:22

وَمَكَرُوْا مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا

and they devised a mighty plot,
71:23

وَقَالُوْا لَا تَذَرُنَّ اٰلِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَّلَا سُوَاعًا ۙ۬ وَّلَا یَغُوْثَ وَیَعُوْقَ وَنَسْرًا

and said (to their people), “Never forsake your gods, and never forsake Wadd, nor Suwā‘, nor Yaghūth and Ya‘ūq and Nasr.
71:24

وَقَدْ اَضَلُّوْا كَثِیْرًا ۚ۬ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ اِلَّا ضَلٰلًا

And they have led many astray. And (O my Lord,) let not the wrongdoers progress in anything but deviation from the right path.”
71:25

مِمَّا خَطِیْٓـٰٔتِهِمْ اُغْرِقُوْا فَاُدْخِلُوْا نَارًا ۙ۬ فَلَمْ یَجِدُوْا لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَنْصَارًا

Because of their sins they were drowned, and then admitted into the Fire. So they found no helpers for them besides Allah.
71:26

وَقَالَ نُوْحٌ رَّبِّ لَا تَذَرْ عَلَی الْاَرْضِ مِنَ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ دَیَّارًا

And said NūH, “My Lord, do not leave on earth even a single inhabitant (surviving) out of the disbelievers.
71:27

اِنَّكَ اِنْ تَذَرْهُمْ یُضِلُّوْا عِبَادَكَ وَلَا یَلِدُوْۤا اِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا

If You leave them (surviving), they will lead Your servants astray, and will beget none but a sinful disbeliever.
71:28

رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِیْ وَلِوَالِدَیَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَیْتِیَ مُؤْمِنًا وَّلِلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَالْمُؤْمِنٰتِ ؕ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ اِلَّا تَبَارًا

My Lord, grant pardon to me, and to my parents, and to everyone who enters my home as a believer, and to all the believing men and believing women, and do not increase the wrongdoers but in ruin.

72. Al-Jinn

72:1

قُلْ اُوْحِیَ اِلَیَّ اَنَّهُ اسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَقَالُوْۤا اِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْاٰنًا عَجَبًا

Say, “It has been revealed to me that a group from Jinn has listened (to the Qur’ān), and said (to their people), ‘Indeed we have heard an amazing Recital (Qur’ān)
72:2

یَّهْدِیْۤ اِلَی الرُّشْدِ فَاٰمَنَّا بِهٖ ؕ وَلَنْ نُّشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنَاۤ اَحَدًا

that guides to the right way, so we have believed in it, and we will never associate a partner with our Lord.’
72:3

وَّاَنَّهٗ تَعٰلٰی جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا اتَّخَذَ صَاحِبَةً وَّلَا وَلَدًا

and (then the Jinns started talking to each other) that exalted is the Glory of our Lord; He has taken neither a wife, nor a son,
72:4

وَّاَنَّهٗ كَانَ یَقُوْلُ سَفِیْهُنَا عَلَی اللّٰهِ شَطَطًا

and that the fools among us used to attribute to Allah extremely absurd things,
72:5

وَّاَنَّا ظَنَنَّاۤ اَنْ لَّنْ تَقُوْلَ الْاِنْسُ وَالْجِنُّ عَلَی اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا

and that we thought that the humans and the Jinn would never tell a lie about Allah, (therefore, we had followed them in shirk under this impression),
72:6

وَّاَنَّهٗ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِّنَ الْاِنْسِ یَعُوْذُوْنَ بِرِجَالٍ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوْهُمْ رَهَقًا

and that some guys from human beings used to seek refuge with some guys of the Jinn, and thus they increased them (the Jinns) in arrogance,
72:7

وَّاَنَّهُمْ ظَنُّوْا كَمَا ظَنَنْتُمْ اَنْ لَّنْ یَّبْعَثَ اللّٰهُ اَحَدًا

and that they (humans) thought as you (O Jinns) thought that Allah will never resurrect anyone,
72:8

وَّاَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَآءَ فَوَجَدْنٰهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِیْدًا وَّشُهُبًا

and that we sought (to reach) the sky, but we found it filled with stern guards and flames,
72:9

وَّاَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ ؕ فَمَنْ یَّسْتَمِعِ الْاٰنَ یَجِدْ لَهٗ شِهَابًا رَّصَدًا

and that we used to sit at places therein to listen; but if one will (try to) listen now, he will find a flame in ambush for him,
72:10

وَّاَنَّا لَا نَدْرِیْۤ اَشَرٌّ اُرِیْدَ بِمَنْ فِی الْاَرْضِ اَمْ اَرَادَ بِهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ رَشَدًا

and that we do not know whether it is a bad end that is intended for those on earth, or their Lord has intended for them a right thing,
72:11

وَّاَنَّا مِنَّا الصّٰلِحُوْنَ وَمِنَّا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَ ؕ كُنَّا طَرَآىِٕقَ قِدَدًا

and that some of us are (already) righteous, and some of us are otherwise, and we were on different ways;
72:12

وَّاَنَّا ظَنَنَّاۤ اَنْ لَّنْ نُّعْجِزَ اللّٰهَ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَلَنْ نُّعْجِزَهٗ هَرَبًا

and that we have now believed that we can never frustrate Allah on the earth, nor can we baffle Him by escape,
72:13

وَّاَنَّا لَمَّا سَمِعْنَا الْهُدٰۤی اٰمَنَّا بِهٖ ؕ فَمَنْ یُّؤْمِنْ بِرَبِّهٖ فَلَا یَخَافُ بَخْسًا وَّلَا رَهَقًا

and that when we heard the Guiding Discourse, we believed in it; so if one believes in his Lord, he will have no fear of either any curtailment (in his reward) or any excess (in his punishment),
72:14

وَّاَنَّا مِنَّا الْمُسْلِمُوْنَ وَمِنَّا الْقٰسِطُوْنَ ؕ فَمَنْ اَسْلَمَ فَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ تَحَرَّوْا رَشَدًا

and that some of us are Muslims, and some of us are unjust. Now, those who submitted to Islam have found out the right path,
72:15

وَاَمَّا الْقٰسِطُوْنَ فَكَانُوْا لِجَهَنَّمَ حَطَبًا

As for the unjust, they have become firewood for Hell.”
72:16

وَّاَنْ لَّوِ اسْتَقَامُوْا عَلَی الطَّرِیْقَةِ لَاَسْقَیْنٰهُمْ مَّآءً غَدَقًا

“(And it is also revealed to me) that if they (the people of Makkah) had stood firm on the (right) way, We would have supplied water to them in abundance,
72:17

لِّنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِیْهِ ؕ وَمَنْ یُّعْرِضْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّهٖ یَسْلُكْهُ عَذَابًا صَعَدًا

so that We test them thereby; and if one turns away from the remembrance of his Lord, He will thrust him into a severe torment,
72:18

وَّاَنَّ الْمَسٰجِدَ لِلّٰهِ فَلَا تَدْعُوْا مَعَ اللّٰهِ اَحَدًا

and that masājid (mosques) belong to Allah; so, do not invoke anyone along with Allah,
72:19

وَّاَنَّهٗ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ یَدْعُوْهُ كَادُوْا یَكُوْنُوْنَ عَلَیْهِ لِبَدًا

and that when Allah’s servant stood invoking Him, they almost rushed on him in crowds.”
72:20

قُلْ اِنَّمَاۤ اَدْعُوْا رَبِّیْ وَلَاۤ اُشْرِكُ بِهٖۤ اَحَدًا

Say, “I invoke my Lord, and do not associate anyone with Him.”
72:21

قُلْ اِنِّیْ لَاۤ اَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّا وَّلَا رَشَدًا

Say, “I possess no power to cause you any harm or bring you to a right way.”
72:22

قُلْ اِنِّیْ لَنْ یُّجِیْرَنِیْ مِنَ اللّٰهِ اَحَدٌ ۙ۬ وَّلَنْ اَجِدَ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖ مُلْتَحَدًا

Say, “No one can ever save me from Allah, and I can never find a refuge save with Him.
72:23

اِلَّا بَلٰغًا مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَرِسٰلٰتِهٖ ؕ وَمَنْ یَّعْصِ اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوْلَهٗ فَاِنَّ لَهٗ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَاۤ اَبَدًا

However, (I have been given power) of conveying (commands) from Allah, and His messages. The one who disobeys Allah and His Messenger, for him there is the fire of Hell, wherein such people will live forever.
72:24

حَتّٰۤی اِذَا رَاَوْا مَا یُوْعَدُوْنَ فَسَیَعْلَمُوْنَ مَنْ اَضْعَفُ نَاصِرًا وَّاَقَلُّ عَدَدًا

(The disbelievers will continue denying the truth and mock at it) until when they will see what they are promised, they will know whose supporters are weaker, and whose numbers are less.
72:25

قُلْ اِنْ اَدْرِیْۤ اَقَرِیْبٌ مَّا تُوْعَدُوْنَ اَمْ یَجْعَلُ لَهٗ رَبِّیْۤ اَمَدًا

Say, “I do not know whether that which you are promised is near, or my Lord has appointed for it a distant term.
72:26

عٰلِمُ الْغَیْبِ فَلَا یُظْهِرُ عَلٰی غَیْبِهٖۤ اَحَدًا

(He is the) Knower of the Unseen. So He does not let anyone know the Unseen created by Him,
72:27

اِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضٰی مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ فَاِنَّهٗ یَسْلُكُ مِنْ بَیْنِ یَدَیْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهٖ رَصَدًا

except a messenger whom He chooses (to inform through revelation), and then He appoints (angels as) watching guards before him and behind him, (so that devils may not tamper with the divine revelation,)
72:28

لِّیَعْلَمَ اَنْ قَدْ اَبْلَغُوْا رِسٰلٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَاَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَیْهِمْ وَاَحْصٰی كُلَّ شَیْءٍ عَدَدًا

so that He knows that they (angels) have conveyed the messages of their Lord. And He has encompassed all that is with them, and has comprehensive knowledge of every thing by numbers.

73. Al-Muzzammil

73:1

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الْمُزَّمِّلُ

O you, wrapped up in clothes,
73:2

قُمِ الَّیْلَ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا

stand at night (for prayer) except a little-
73:3

نِّصْفَهٗۤ اَوِ انْقُصْ مِنْهُ قَلِیْلًا

-half of it, or make it a little less,
73:4

اَوْ زِدْ عَلَیْهِ وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْاٰنَ تَرْتِیْلًا

or make it a little more; and recite the Qur’ān clearly with tartīl (in a distinct and measured tone).
73:5

اِنَّا سَنُلْقِیْ عَلَیْكَ قَوْلًا ثَقِیْلًا

We are going to send down to you a weighty discourse.
73:6

اِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ الَّیْلِ هِیَ اَشَدُّ وَطْاً وَّاَقْوَمُ قِیْلًا

Truly, rising by night (for prayer of tahajjud) is the most effective way to subdue (one’s base self) and to make speech more upright.
73:7

اِنَّ لَكَ فِی النَّهَارِ سَبْحًا طَوِیْلًا

Surely, in daytime, you have a lengthy work to do.
73:8

وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ اِلَیْهِ تَبْتِیْلًا

And remember the name of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him with exclusive devotion.
73:9

رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ فَاتَّخِذْهُ وَكِیْلًا

He is the Lord of the East and the West; there is no god but He; so take Him for (your) Guardian.
73:10

وَاصْبِرْ عَلٰی مَا یَقُوْلُوْنَ وَاهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْرًا جَمِیْلًا

And bear patiently what they (the opponents) say, and part with them in a beautiful manner.
73:11

وَذَرْنِیْ وَالْمُكَذِّبِیْنَ اُولِی النَّعْمَةِ وَمَهِّلْهُمْ قَلِیْلًا

And leave Me alone (to deal) with the deniers, the people of luxury, and give them respite for a while.
73:12

اِنَّ لَدَیْنَاۤ اَنْكَالًا وَّجَحِیْمًا

Surely with Us are fetters and flaming fire,
73:13

وَّطَعَامًا ذَا غُصَّةٍ وَّعَذَابًا اَلِیْمًا

and food that chokes, and a painful punishment
73:14

یَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ الْاَرْضُ وَالْجِبَالُ وَكَانَتِ الْجِبَالُ كَثِیْبًا مَّهِیْلًا

on the Day when the earth and the mountains will quake, and the mountains will turn into a slipping heap of sand.
73:15

اِنَّاۤ اَرْسَلْنَاۤ اِلَیْكُمْ رَسُوْلًا ۙ۬ شَاهِدًا عَلَیْكُمْ كَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَاۤ اِلٰی فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُوْلًا

(O people,) We have sent to you a messenger, as a witness over you, just as We sent a messenger to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh).
73:16

فَعَصٰی فِرْعَوْنُ الرَّسُوْلَ فَاَخَذْنٰهُ اَخْذًا وَّبِیْلًا

Then, Fir‘aun disobeyed the messenger; so We seized him with a severe seizure.
73:17

فَكَیْفَ تَتَّقُوْنَ اِنْ كَفَرْتُمْ یَوْمًا یَّجْعَلُ الْوِلْدَانَ شِیْبَا

So, if you disbelieve, how will you save yourself from a day that will turn the small boys into grey-headed old men,
73:18

لسَّمَآءُ مُنْفَطِرٌ بِهٖ ؕ كَانَ وَعْدُهٗ مَفْعُوْلًا

whereby the sky will burst apart. His promise has to be fulfilled.
73:19

اِنَّ هٰذِهٖ تَذْكِرَةٌ ۚ فَمَنْ شَآءَ اتَّخَذَ اِلٰی رَبِّهٖ سَبِیْلًا

Indeed, this is a reminder; so let anyone who so wishes, adopt a way to his Lord.
73:20

اِنَّ رَبَّكَ یَعْلَمُ اَنَّكَ تَقُوْمُ اَدْنٰی مِنْ الَّیْلِ وَنِصْفَهٗ وَثُلُثَهٗ وَطَآىِٕفَةٌ مِّنَ الَّذِیْنَ مَعَكَ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یُقَدِّرُ الَّیْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ ؕ عَلِمَ اَنْ لَّنْ تُحْصُوْهُ فَتَابَ عَلَیْكُمْ فَاقْرَءُوْا مَا تَیَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْاٰنِ ؕ عَلِمَ اَنْ سَیَكُوْنُ مِنْكُمْ مَّرْضٰی ۙ وَاٰخَرُوْنَ یَضْرِبُوْنَ فِی الْاَرْضِ یَبْتَغُوْنَ مِنْ فَضْلِ اللّٰهِ ۙ وَاٰخَرُوْنَ یُقَاتِلُوْنَ فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ ۖؗ فَاقْرَءُوْا مَا تَیَسَّرَ مِنْهُ ۙ وَاَقِیْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاٰتُوا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاَقْرِضُوا اللّٰهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا ؕ وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوْا لِاَنْفُسِكُمْ مِّنْ خَیْرٍ تَجِدُوْهُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ هُوَ خَیْرًا وَّاَعْظَمَ اَجْرًا ؕ وَاسْتَغْفِرُوا اللّٰهَ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ

Your Lord knows that you stand (in prayer) for nearly two thirds of the night, and (at times) for half of it, and (at times) for one third of it, and (so do) a group of those who are with you. And Allah measures the night and the day. He knows that you (O Muslims,) cannot do it in regular way; therefore He turned to you in mercy.Now, recite as much of the Qur’ān as is easy (for you). He knows that some of you may be sick, and others traveling in the land, seeking the grace of Allah, and yet others fighting in Allah’s way. Therefore, recite as much of it as is easy. And establish Salāh, and pay Zakāh, and advance to Allah a goodly loan. And whatever good you will send ahead for your own-selves, you will find it with Allah much better in condition, and much greater in reward. And seek forgiveness from Allah. Indeed Allah is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.

74. Al-Muddaththir

74:1

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ

O you, enveloped in a mantle,
74:2

قُمْ فَاَنْذِرْ

stand up and warn,
74:3

وَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْ

and pronounce the greatness of your Lord,
74:4

وَثِیَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ

and purify your clothes,
74:5

وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ

and keep away from filth,
74:6

وَلَا تَمْنُنْ تَسْتَكْثِرُ

and do not do a favour (to anyone merely) to seek more (in return).
74:7

وَلِرَبِّكَ فَاصْبِرْ

And for the sake of your Lord, observe patience.
74:8

فَاِذَا نُقِرَ فِی النَّاقُوْرِ

For when the trumpet will be blown,
74:9

فَذٰلِكَ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ یَّوْمٌ عَسِیْرٌ

that day will be a difficult day,
74:10

عَلَی الْكٰفِرِیْنَ غَیْرُ یَسِیْرٍ

not easy for the disbelievers.
74:11

ذَرْنِیْ وَمَنْ خَلَقْتُ وَحِیْدًا

Leave me alone (to deal) with the one whom I created lonely,
74:12

وَّجَعَلْتُ لَهٗ مَالًا مَّمْدُوْدًا

and gave him extensive wealth,
74:13

وَّبَنِیْنَ شُهُوْدًا

and sons present before (his) eyes,
74:14

وَّمَهَّدْتُّ لَهٗ تَمْهِیْدًا

and extended (power and honour) to him pretty well.
74:15

ثُمَّ یَطْمَعُ اَنْ اَزِیْدَ

Still, he aspires that I should give him more.
74:16

كَلَّا ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ لِاٰیٰتِنَا عَنِیْدًا

Never! He is inimical towards Our verses.
74:17

سَاُرْهِقُهٗ صَعُوْدًا

I will force him to climb the mountain Sa‘ūd.
74:18

اِنَّهٗ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ

He pondered and surmised.
74:19

فَقُتِلَ كَیْفَ قَدَّرَ

Death onto him! How (bad) is the surmise he put forward!
74:20

ثُمَّ قُتِلَ كَیْفَ قَدَّرَ

Again, death unto him! How (bad) is the surmise he put forward!
74:21

ثُمَّ نَظَرَ

Then he looked (to those around him,)
74:22

ثُمَّ عَبَسَ وَبَسَرَ

then he frowned and scowled,
74:23

ثُمَّ اَدْبَرَ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ

then turned his back, and waxed proud,
74:24

فَقَالَ اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ یُّؤْثَرُ

then said, “This is nothing but traditional magic;
74:25

اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا قَوْلُ الْبَشَرِ

this is nothing but saying of a mortal.”
74:26

سَاُصْلِیْهِ سَقَرَ

I will put him into Saqar (Hell).
74:27

وَمَاۤ اَدْرٰىكَ مَا سَقَرُ

And what can let you know what Saqar is?
74:28

لَا تُبْقِیْ وَلَا تَذَرُ

It neither spares (anything inside it from burning) nor leaves (any disbeliever outside).
74:29

لَوَّاحَةٌ لِّلْبَشَرِ

It will disfigure the skins.
74:30

عَلَیْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ

Appointed on it are nineteen (wardens).
74:31

وَمَا جَعَلْنَاۤ اَصْحٰبَ النَّارِ اِلَّا مَلٰٓىِٕكَةً ۪ وَّمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ اِلَّا فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا ۙ لِیَسْتَیْقِنَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ وَیَزْدَادَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِیْمَانًا وَّلَا یَرْتَابَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ ۙ وَلِیَقُوْلَ الَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ وَّالْكٰفِرُوْنَ مَاذَاۤ اَرَادَ اللّٰهُ بِهٰذَا مَثَلًا ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یُضِلُّ اللّٰهُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَیَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ؕ وَمَا یَعْلَمُ جُنُوْدَ رَبِّكَ اِلَّا هُوَ ؕ وَمَا هِیَ اِلَّا ذِكْرٰی لِلْبَشَرِ

And We did not make wardens of the Fire but (from) angels, and did not fix their number but as a test for those who disbelieve, so that those who are given the Book may come to believe, and those who believe may improve in belief, and so that those who are given the Book and those who believe may not doubt (its correctness), and so that those having malady in their hearts and the disbelievers say, “What has Allah meant by this strange statement?” Thus Allah lets go astray whomever He wills, and leads to the right path whomever He wills. And no one knows the hosts of your Lord but He. And this is nothing else but a reminder for mankind.
74:32

كَلَّا وَالْقَمَرِ

Truly, I swear by the moon,
74:33

وَالَّیْلِ اِذْ اَدْبَرَ

and by the night when it goes back,
74:34

وَالصُّبْحِ اِذَاۤ اَسْفَرَ

and by the morning when it becomes bright,
74:35

اِنَّهَا لَاِحْدَی الْكُبَرِ

it (Saqar : Hell) is one of the greatest things
74:36

نَذِیْرًا لِّلْبَشَرِ

as a warning to the mankind,
74:37

لِمَنْ شَآءَ مِنْكُمْ اَنْ یَّتَقَدَّمَ اَوْ یَتَاَخَّرَ

to the one from among you who wishes to come forward (towards good deeds) or to go back (from them).
74:38

كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِیْنَةٌ

Everyone will be detained (in the Hell) because of what he did,
74:39

اِلَّاۤ اَصْحٰبَ الْیَمِیْنِ

except the People of the Right, (i.e. those who will be given their Book of Deeds in their right hands)
74:40

فِیْ جَنّٰتٍ ۛ۫ یَتَسَآءَلُوْنَ

who will be in gardens, asking
74:41

عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِیْنَ

about the guilty persons,
74:42

مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِیْ سَقَرَ

“What has brought you to Saqar? (Hell)”
74:43

قَالُوْا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّیْنَ

They will say, “We were not among those who offered Salāh , (obligatory prayer)
74:44

وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِیْنَ

and we did not give food to the needy,
74:45

وَكُنَّا نَخُوْضُ مَعَ الْخَآىِٕضِیْنَ

and we indulged (in mocking at the truth) along with those who indulged,
74:46

وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِیَوْمِ الدِّیْنِ

and we used to deny the Day of Requital,
74:47

حَتّٰۤی اَتٰىنَا الْیَقِیْنُ

until when we were overtaken by that which is certain.”
74:48

فَمَا تَنْفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشّٰفِعِیْنَ

Then intercession of intercessors will not benefit them.
74:49

فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ التَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِیْنَ

So what has happened to them that they are turning away from the Reminder,
74:50

كَاَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُّسْتَنْفِرَةٌ

as if they were wild donkeys,
74:51

فَرَّتْ مِنْ قَسْوَرَةٍ

fleeing from a lion?
74:52

بَلْ یُرِیْدُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ اَنْ یُّؤْتٰی صُحُفًا مُّنَشَّرَةً

Rather, every one of them wishes that he should be given unrolled (divine) scriptures.
74:53

كَلَّا ؕ بَلْ لَّا یَخَافُوْنَ الْاٰخِرَةَ

Never! But they do not fear the Hereafter.
74:54

كَلَّاۤ اِنَّهٗ تَذْكِرَةٌ

Never! Indeed, this is a Reminder.
74:55

فَمَنْ شَآءَ ذَكَرَهٗ

So, whoever so wishes may take advice from it.
74:56

وَمَا یَذْكُرُوْنَ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ یَّشَآءَ اللّٰهُ ؕ هُوَ اَهْلُ التَّقْوٰی وَاَهْلُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ

And they will not take advice unless Allah so wills. He is worthy to be feared, and worthy to forgive.

75. Al-Qiyamah

75:1

لَاۤ اُقْسِمُ بِیَوْمِ الْقِیٰمَةِ

I swear by the Day of Resurrection,
75:2

وَلَاۤ اُقْسِمُ بِالنَّفْسِ اللَّوَّامَةِ

and I swear by the self-reproaching conscience, (that Resurrection is a reality.)
75:3

اَیَحْسَبُ الْاِنْسَانُ اَلَّنْ نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهٗ

Does man think that We will never reassemble his bones?
75:4

بَلٰى قٰدِرِیْنَ عَلٰۤی اَنْ نُّسَوِّیَ بَنَانَهٗ

Why (can We) not (do so), while We are able to reset (even) his fingertips perfectly?
75:5

بَلْ یُرِیْدُ الْاِنْسَانُ لِیَفْجُرَ اَمَامَهٗ

But man wishes to go on violating Allah’s injunctions (even in future) ahead of him.
75:6

یَسْـَٔلُ اَیَّانَ یَوْمُ الْقِیٰمَةِ

He asks, “When will be this Day of Resurrection?”
75:7

فَاِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ

So, when the eyes will be dazzled,
75:8

وَخَسَفَ الْقَمَرُ

and the moon will lose its light,
75:9

وَجُمِعَ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ

and the sun and the moon will be joined together,
75:10

یَقُوْلُ الْاِنْسَانُ یَوْمَىِٕذٍ اَیْنَ الْمَفَرُّ

on that day man will say, “Where to escape?”
75:11

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ

Never! There will be no refuge at all.
75:12

اِلٰى رَبِّكَ یَوْمَىِٕذِ لْمُسْتَقَرُّ

On that day, towards your Lord will be the destination (of everyone.)
75:13

یُنَبَّؤُا الْاِنْسَانُ یَوْمَىِٕذٍۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَاَخَّرَ

Man will be informed of what he sent ahead and what he left behind.
75:14

بَلِ الْاِنْسَانُ عَلٰی نَفْسِهٖ بَصِیْرَةٌ

Rather, man will be a witness against himself,
75:15

وَّلَوْ اَلْقٰى مَعَاذِیْرَهٗ

even though he may offer his excuses.
75:16

لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهٖ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهٖ

(O Prophet,) do not move your tongue (during revelation) for (reciting) it (the Qur’ān) to receive it in hurry.
75:17

اِنَّ عَلَیْنَا جَمْعَهٗ وَقُرْاٰنَهٗ

It is surely undertaken by Us to store it (in your heart), and to let it be recited (by you after revelation is completed).
75:18

فَاِذَا قَرَاْنٰهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْاٰنَهٗ

Therefore, when it is recited by Us (through the angel), follow its recitation (by concentration of your heart).
75:19

ثُمَّ اِنَّ عَلَیْنَا بَیَانَهٗ

Then, it is undertaken by Us to explain it.
75:20

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّوْنَ الْعَاجِلَةَ

Never, (your denial of Resurrection is never based on any sound reason!) Instead, you love that which is immediate,
75:21

وَتَذَرُوْنَ الْاٰخِرَةَ

and neglect the Hereafter.
75:22

وُجُوْهٌ یَّوْمَىِٕذٍ نَّاضِرَةٌ

Many faces, that day, will be glowing,
75:23

اِلٰى رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ

looking towards their Lord,
75:24

وَوُجُوْهٌ یَّوْمَىِٕذٍۭ بَاسِرَةٌ

and many faces, that day, will be gloomy,
75:25

تَظُنُّ اَنْ یُّفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ

realizing that a back-breaking calamity is going to be afflicted on them.
75:26

كَلَّاۤ اِذَا بَلَغَتِ التَّرَاقِیَ

Never, (you will never remain in this world forever!) When the soul (of a patient) reaches the clavicles,
75:27

وَقِیْلَ مَنْ ٚ رَاقٍ

and it is said, “Who is an enchanter (that can save him?)”
75:28

وَّظَنَّ اَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ

and he realizes that it is (the time of) departure (from the world,)
75:29

وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ

and one shank is intertwined with the other shank,
75:30

اِلٰى رَبِّكَ یَوْمَىِٕذِ لْمَسَاقُ

then on that day, it is to your Lord that one has to be driven.
75:31

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلّٰى

So (the denier of the Hereafter) neither believed, nor prayed,
75:32

وَلٰكِنْ كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلّٰى

but rejected the truth and turned away (from it),
75:33

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ اِلٰۤی اَهْلِهٖ یَتَمَطّٰى

then he went to his home, puffed up with pride.
75:34

اَوْلٰى لَكَ فَاَوْلٰى

(It will be said to such a man,) Woe to you, then woe to you!
75:35

ثُمَّ اَوْلٰى لَكَ فَاَوْلٰى

Again, woe to you, then woe to you!
75:36

اَیَحْسَبُ الْاِنْسَانُ اَنْ یُّتْرَكَ سُدًی

Does man presume that he will be left unchecked?
75:37

اَلَمْ یَكُ نُطْفَةً مِّنْ مَّنِیٍّ یُّمْنٰى

Was he not an ejaculated drop of semen?
75:38

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوّٰى

Then he became a clot of blood, then He created (him) and made (him) perfect,
75:39

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَیْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْاُ

and made from him two kinds, male and female.
75:40

اَلَیْسَ ذٰلِكَ بِقٰدِرٍ عَلٰۤی اَنْ یُّحْیِ الْمَوْتٰى

Has He no power to give life to the dead?

76. Al-Insan

76:1

هَلْ اَتٰی عَلَی الْاِنْسَانِ حِیْنٌ مِّنَ الدَّهْرِ لَمْ یَكُنْ شَیْـًٔا مَّذْكُوْرًا

There has come upon man a period of time in which he was nothing worth mentioning.
76:2

اِنَّا خَلَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ نُّطْفَةٍ اَمْشَاجٍ ۖۗ نَّبْتَلِیْهِ فَجَعَلْنٰهُ سَمِیْعًا بَصِیْرًا

We have created man from a mixed sperm-drop to put him to a test; then We made him able to hear, able to see.
76:3

اِنَّا هَدَیْنٰهُ السَّبِیْلَ اِمَّا شَاكِرًا وَّاِمَّا كَفُوْرًا

We have shown him the way to be either grateful or ungrateful.
76:4

اِنَّاۤ اَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ سَلٰسِلَاۡ وَاَغْلٰلًا وَّسَعِیْرًا

We have prepared, for the disbelievers, shackles and iron-collars and a blazing Fire.
76:5

اِنَّ الْاَبْرَارَ یَشْرَبُوْنَ مِنْ كَاْسٍ كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا كَافُوْرًا

Indeed, the righteous will have a drink from a goblet, blended with (a drink from) Camphor
76:6

عَیْنًا یَّشْرَبُ بِهَا عِبَادُ اللّٰهِ یُفَجِّرُوْنَهَا تَفْجِیْرًا

that will be a spring from which Allah’s servants will drink, making it flow (wherever they wish) profusely.
76:7

یُوْفُوْنَ بِالنَّذْرِ وَیَخَافُوْنَ یَوْمًا كَانَ شَرُّهٗ مُسْتَطِیْرًا

They (are the ones who) fulfill their vows, and fear a day whose evil (events) will spread far and wide,
76:8

وَیُطْعِمُوْنَ الطَّعَامَ عَلٰی حُبِّهٖ مِسْكِیْنًا وَّیَتِیْمًا وَّاَسِیْرًا

and they give food, out of their love for Him (Allah), to the needy, and the orphan, and the captive,
76:9

اِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ اللّٰهِ لَا نُرِیْدُ مِنْكُمْ جَزَآءً وَّلَا شُكُوْرًا

(saying to them,) “We feed you only for the sake of Allah; we have no intention of (receiving) either a return from you or thanks.
76:10

اِنَّا نَخَافُ مِنْ رَّبِّنَا یَوْمًا عَبُوْسًا قَمْطَرِیْرًا

In fact, we are fearful of a day, from the side of our Lord, that will be frowning, extremely malignant.”
76:11

فَوَقٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ شَرَّ ذٰلِكَ الْیَوْمِ وَلَقّٰىهُمْ نَضْرَةً وَّسُرُوْرًا

So Allah will save them from the evil of that day, and will grant them bloom and delight,
76:12

وَجَزٰىهُمْ بِمَا صَبَرُوْا جَنَّةً وَّحَرِیْرًا

and will give them, in return for their patience, Paradise and (garments of) silk,
76:13

مُّتَّكِـِٕیْنَ فِیْهَا عَلَی الْاَرَآىِٕكِ ۚ لَا یَرَوْنَ فِیْهَا شَمْسًا وَّلَا زَمْهَرِیْرًا

wherein they will be reclining on couches, feeling neither heat of the sun nor intense cold.
76:14

وَدَانِیَةً عَلَیْهِمْ ظِلٰلُهَا وَذُلِّلَتْ قُطُوْفُهَا تَذْلِیْلًا

And shades of gardens will be hanging low on them, and their fruits will be placed totally under their command.
76:15

وَیُطَافُ عَلَیْهِمْ بِاٰنِیَةٍ مِّنْ فِضَّةٍ وَّاَكْوَابٍ كَانَتْ قَوَارِیْرَاۡؔ

Circulated among them will be vessels of silver, and cups that will be (as transparent as) crystals,

قَوَارِیْرَاۡؔ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ قَدَّرُوْهَا تَقْدِیْرًا

-crystals (as shining as if made) of silver, measured by those (who filled them) with due measure.
76:17

وَیُسْقَوْنَ فِیْهَا كَاْسًا كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا زَنْجَبِیْلًا

And they will be served with goblet of a drink blended with ginger,
76:18

عَیْنًا فِیْهَا تُسَمّٰی سَلْسَبِیْلًا

(acquired from) a spring therein called Salsabīl.
76:19

وَیَطُوْفُ عَلَیْهِمْ وِلْدَانٌ مُّخَلَّدُوْنَ ۚ اِذَا رَاَیْتَهُمْ حَسِبْتَهُمْ لُؤْلُؤًا مَّنْثُوْرًا

And circling around them will be serving boys, blessed with eternal youth; when you would see them, you would take them as scattered pearls.
76:20

وَاِذَا رَاَیْتَ ثَمَّ رَاَیْتَ نَعِیْمًا وَّمُلْكًا كَبِیْرًا

When you will look around there, you will see the Bliss and a magnificent realm.
76:21

عٰلِیَهُمْ ثِیَابُ سُنْدُسٍ خُضْرٌ وَّاِسْتَبْرَقٌ ؗ وَّحُلُّوْۤا اَسَاوِرَ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ ۚ وَسَقٰىهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ شَرَابًا طَهُوْرًا

Upon them will be garments of green sundus (a kind of fine silk), and of istabraq (a kind of thick silk), and they will be adorned by bracelets of silver. Their Lord will give them a pure beverage to drink:

اِنَّ هٰذَا كَانَ لَكُمْ جَزَآءً وَّكَانَ سَعْیُكُمْ مَّشْكُوْرًا

“This is a reward for you, and your effort has been appreciated.”
76:23

اِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَیْكَ الْقُرْاٰنَ تَنْزِیْلًا

Indeed we have revealed to you the Qur’ān through a gradual process.
76:24

فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تُطِعْ مِنْهُمْ اٰثِمًا اَوْ كَفُوْرًا

So, be steadfast patiently in (obeying) your Lord’s command, and do not obey any one of them who is sinner or ungrateful.

the living and the dead?
