| 1. * | The Hour draws near, and the moon is breached. |
| 2. * | And if they see a sign, they turn away and Say: "Continuous magic!" |
| 3. * | And they disbelieved, and followed their desires, and every old tradition. |
| 4. * | While the news had come to them in which there was sufficient warning. |
| 5. * | A perfect wisdom; but the warnings are of no benefit. |
| 6. * | So turn away from them; the Day will come when the caller will announce a terrible disaster. |
| 7. * | With their eyes humiliated, they come out of the graves like scattered locusts. |
| 8. * | Hastening towards the caller, the rejecters will Say: "This is a difficult Day." |
| 9. * | The people of Noah disbelieved before them. They disbelieved Our servant and said: "He is crazy!" and he was oppressed. |
| 10. * | So he called on his Lord: "I am beaten, so grant me victory." |
| 11. * | So We opened the gates of the sky with pouring water. |
| 12. * | And We caused springs to gush out of the Earth. Thus the waters met to a command which had been measured. |
| 13. * | We carried him on a craft made of slabs and mortar. |
| 14. * | It ran under Our watchful eyes; a reward for one who was rejected. |
| 15. * | And We have left it as a sign. Do any of you wish to learn? |
| 16. * | So how was My retribution after the warnings! |
| 17. * | And We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? |
| 18. * | 'Aad disbelieved. So how was My retribution after the warnings! |
| 19. * | We sent upon them a violent wind, on a day of continuous misery. |
| 20. * | It uprooted the people as if they were decayed palm tree trunks. |
| 21. * | So how was My retribution after the warnings! |
| 22. * | We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? |
| 23. * | Thamud rejected the warnings. |
| 24. * | They said: "Shall we follow one of us; a human being? We will then go astray, and be in Hell." |
| 25. * | "Has the message come down to him, instead of us? He is an evil liar." |
| 26. * | They will find out tomorrow who the evil liar is. |
| 27. * | We are sending the camel as a test for them. So observe them and be patient. |
| 28. * | And inform them that the water shall be divided between them; each shall be allowed to drink in the specified time. |
| 29. * | But they called on their friend, and he was paid to slaughter. |
| 30. * | So how was My retribution after the warnings! |
| 31. * | We sent upon them one scream, whereupon they became like harvested hay. |
| 32. * | We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn? |
| 33. * | The people of Lot rejected the warners. |
| 34. * | We sent upon them projectiles. Except for the family of Lot, We saved them at dawn. |
| 35. * | A blessing from Us; it is thus that We reward those who are appreciative. |
| 36. * | And he warned them about Our punishment, but they ridiculed the warnings. |
| 37. * | And they sought to remove him from his guests; so We diverted their eyes. "Taste My retribution; you have been warned." |
| 38. * | And in the early morning, a devastating retribution struck them. |
| 39. * | "Taste My retribution; you have been warned." |
| 40. * | We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? |
| 41. * | And the warnings had come to the people of Pharaoh. |
| 42. * | They rejected all Our signs. So We took them, the taking of the Noble, the Able. |
| 43. * | Are your rejecters better than those? Or have you been absolved by the Scripture? |
| 44. * | Or do they Say: "We are a large group and we will win." |
| 45. * | The large group will be defeated; they will turn around and flee. |
| 46. * | The Hour is their appointed time, and the Hour is far worse and more painful. |
| 47. * | The criminals are in error and will burn. |
| 48. * | The Day when they will be dragged upon their faces into the Fire: "Taste the agony of the scorching heat!" |
| 49. * | Everything We have created in measure. |
| 50. * | And Our commands are done at once with the blink of an eye. |
| 51. * | And We have destroyed your counterparts. Do any of you wish to learn? |
| 52. * | And everything they did is in the records. |
| 53. * | And everything, small or large, is written down. |
| 54. * | The righteous will be in paradises and rivers. |
| 55. * | In a position of honour, at an Omnipotent King. |
