| 1. * | By the mount Tur (where Moses was given the Torah),[1] |
| 2. * | and by the Book written[2] |
| 3. * | on a fine unfolded scroll,[3] |
| 4. * | and by the inhabited House,[4] |
| 5. * | and the elevated canopy (sky),[5] |
| 6. * | and the surging ocean,[6] |
| 7. * | the torment of your Lord will surely come to pass![7] |
| 8. * | There shall be none to avert it.[8] |
| 9. * | On that Day, heaven will shake violently[9] |
| 10. * | and the mountain will travel around.[10] |
| 11. * | On that Day, woe be to the deniers of truth,[11] |
| 12. * | who are engaged in their useless sports.[12] |
| 13. * | On that Day they shall be driven to the fire of hell with violence,[13] |
| 14. * | and it will be said to them: "This is the fire which you denied.[14] |
| 15. * | Is this a magic, or do you not see?[15] |
| 16. * | Now burn therein; it will be the same for you, whether you bear it patiently or do not bear it patiently. You are being rewarded according to your deeds."[16] |
| 17. * | As for the righteous, they will be in Gardens and bliss,[17] |
| 18. * | rejoicing in what their Lord has given them and their Lord shall shield them from the torment of hell.[18] |
| 19. * | It will be said to them: "Eat and drink to your hearts content, this is the reward for your good deeds."[19] |
| 20. * | They shall recline on couches arranged in rows; and We shall wed them with beautiful Huris (damsels).[20] |
| 21. * | We shall unite the true believers with those of their descendants who follow them in their faith, and shall not deny them the reward of their good deeds - everyone is responsible for his deeds[21] |
| 22. * | - and We shall provide them fruits, and such meats as they desire.[22] |
| 23. * | They will pass from hand to hand a cup of wine which shall cause no idle talk, nor sinful urge;[23] |
| 24. * | and there shall wait for them young boys, exclusively appointed for their service, who will be as handsome as treasured pearls.[24] |
| 25. * | They will converse with one another about their worldly life[25] |
| 26. * | and say: "When we were living among our kinfolk, we were troubled by many fears.[26] |
| 27. * | But Allah has been gracious to us; He has delivered us from the fiery scourge.[27] |
| 28. * | Indeed we used to pray only to Him. Surely He is the Beneficent, the Merciful."[28] |
| 29. * | Therefore, O Prophet, keep up your mission of admonition. By the grace of your Lord you are neither a soothsayer nor a madman.[29] |
| 30. * | Do they say: "He is but a poet! We are waiting for some misfortune to befall him."[30] |
| 31. * | Tell them: "Wait if you will; I too shall wait with you."[31] |
| 32. * | Does their faculties of reasoning prompt them to say this? Or is it merely that they are wicked people?[32] |
| 33. * | Do they say: "This man has invented this Qur’an himself?" Nay! They do not want to believe.[33] |
| 34. * | Let them produce a scripture like this, if what they say is true![34] |
| 35. * | Were they created without a Creator? Or were they their own creators?[35] |
| 36. * | Did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay! They will never be convinced.[36] |
| 37. * | Do they possess the treasures of your Lord? Or is it they who control them?[37] |
| 38. * | Do they have a stairway to heaven by means of which they overhear Him? If so, let any of them who overheard Him, bring clear proof.[38] |
| 39. * | Is He to have daughters and you sons?[39] |
| 40. * | Do you ask them payment for your services, that they should fear to be overburdened by a debt?[40] |
| 41. * | Do they have the knowledge of the unseen? Can they write it down?[41] |
| 42. * | Do they intend to devise a plot against you? If so, the disbelievers themselves will be trapped in their plot.[42] |
| 43. * | Do they have a god other than Allah? Exalted is Allah, far above those deities they associate with Him.[43] |
| 44. * | They are such people that, even if they will see a part of heaven falling down, they would say: "It is but a mass of clouds."[44] |
| 45. * | So leave them alone until they encounter that Day of theirs wherein they shall be made to swoon with terror.[45] |
| 46. * | The Day when their designs will avail them nothing and none will help them.[46] |
| 47. * | Surely for such wrongdoers, there is another punishment besides that, even though most of them do not realize that.[47] |
| 48. * | Therefore, wait for the Judgment of your Lord with patience, We are surely watching over you. Glorify your Lord with His praises when you wake up,[48] |
| 49. * | and glorify Him in a part of the night, and also as the stars fade away.[49] |
