| 1. * | The Hour of Doom is drawing near, the moon has split asunder; which is a clear proof that the same thing can happen to the earth.[1] |
| 2. * | Yet when they see a sign, the unbelievers turn their backs and say: "This is an ingenious magic."[2] |
| 3. * | They deny this and keep on following their own fancies. Ultimately every matter shall be laid to rest.[3] |
| 4. * | There has already come to them the information of former nations containing enough deterrents[4] |
| 5. * | and profound wisdom to serve as a warning, but warnings are of no use to these people.[5] |
| 6. * | Therefore, O Prophet, let them be. On the Day when the caller will call them to a terrible event.[6] |
| 7. * | They shall come out from their graves, like swarming locusts, with downcast eyes,[7] |
| 8. * | rushing towards the caller and the same unbelievers will cry: "This is indeed an awful Day!"[8] |
| 9. * | Long before them, the people of Noah disbelieved. They rejected Our servant, called him a madman and drove him out.[9] |
| 10. * | After admonishing the people for 950 years, finally he cried out: "Help me, O Lord, I have been overcome!"[10] |
| 11. * | So We opened the gates of heaven with pouring rain[11] |
| 12. * | and caused the earth to burst with gushing springs, and the waters met to fulfill the decreed end.[12] |
| 13. * | We carried him in an Ark built with planks and nails,[13] |
| 14. * | which drifted on under Our care: a reward for him (Noah) who was denied by the unbelievers.[14] |
| 15. * | We have left that Ark as a sign, so is there any who would take admonition?[15] |
| 16. * | How terrible was My scourge and how clear My warning![16] |
| 17. * | We have indeed made the Qur’an very easy to understand the admonition: but is there any who would take admonition?[17] |
| 18. * | Likewise the people of 'Ad did not believe then how terrible was My scourge and how clear My Warning![18] |
| 19. * | We let loose on them a tornado, on the day of their bitter misfortune,[19] |
| 20. * | which snatched them off like trunks of uprooted palm-trees.[20] |
| 21. * | How terrible was My scourge and how clear My warning![21] |
| 22. * | We have indeed made the Qur’an very easy to understand the admonition, so is there any who would take admonition?[22] |
| 23. * | The people of Thamud disbelieved Our warning,[23] |
| 24. * | saying: "Are we to follow a human who stands alone among us? That would surely be an error and madness.[24] |
| 25. * | Was he the only person among us to receive this warning? Nay! He is indeed an insolent liar."[25] |
| 26. * | To Our Messenger Saleh, We said: "Tomorrow they shall find out who is an insolent liar.[26] |
| 27. * | We are going to send the she-camel as a trial for them. Therefore, watch them and have patience.[27] |
| 28. * | Tell them that the water must be shared between them and the she-camel, and each will come to the water at its own turn.[28] |
| 29. * | At last the people of Thamud called out to one of their companions, who took the responsibility and hamstrung her.[29] |
| 30. * | Then how terrible was My scourge and how clear My warning![30] |
| 31. * | We let loose on them one mighty blast and they became like the trampled twigs used by a fence builder.[31] |
| 32. * | We have indeed made the Qur’an very easy to understand the admonition, so is there any who would take admonition?[32] |
| 33. * | Another example is the people of Lot who disbelieved Our warning.[33] |
| 34. * | We let loose on them a stone-charged tornado which spared none except Lot’s household, whom We saved by early dawn[34] |
| 35. * | through Our grace. Thus do We reward those who give thanks.[35] |
| 36. * | Lot did warn them of Our scourge but they doubted his warnings.[36] |
| 37. * | They even sought to snatch away his guests from him but We blinded their eyes, and said: "Now taste My punishment and the result of disbelieving My warning."[37] |
| 38. * | At daybreak they were overtaken by a lasting punishment[38] |
| 39. * | as if to say: "Now taste My punishment and the result of disbelieving My warning."[39] |
| 40. * | We have indeed made the Qur’an very easy to understand the admonition, so is there any who would take admonition?[40] |
| 41. * | My warnings also came to the people of Pharaoh.[41] |
| 42. * | They disbelieved all Our signs. Consequently, We seized them with a seizure of the Mighty, Powerful.[42] |
| 43. * | O Qureysh, are your unbelievers better than they were, or have you been granted an immunity in the Sacred Books?[43] |
| 44. * | Or, do they say: "Acting together, we can defend ourselves?"[44] |
| 45. * | Soon will their multitude be routed and put to flight.[45] |
| 46. * | Nay! The Hour of Judgment is the time promised to deal with them. That hour will be the most grievous and bitter.[46] |
| 47. * | Yet, surely the wicked people persist in error and madness.[47] |
| 48. * | On that Day when they will be dragged into the fire with their faces downwards, We shall say: "Feel the touch of hell!"[48] |
| 49. * | Surely We have created everything in perfect ordainment (destiny and purpose).[49] |
| 50. * | We command but once and Our will is done in the twinkling of an eye.[50] |
| 51. * | O disbelievers, We have already destroyed many like you. Will you not take admonition?[51] |
| 52. * | All that they do is being added to their record books:[52] |
| 53. * | every action, small and big is being noted down.[53] |
| 54. * | Surely the righteous will be in the midst of gardens and rivers,[54] |
| 55. * | a place of true honor, in the presence of Almighty Sovereign.[55] |
