| 1. * | The Hour of Doom is drawing near and the moon is rent asunder. |
| 2. * | Whenever they see a miracle, they turn away from it and say, "This is just a powerful magic". |
| 3. * | They have rejected it and have followed their own desires, but all matters will be settled (by God). |
| 4. * | They have certainly received the kind of news in which there is a lesson and strong words of wisdom, |
| 5. * | but the warnings have proved to have no effect on them. |
| 6. * | (Muhammad), leave them alone. On the day when they will be called to a terrible punishment, |
| 7. * | they will come out of their graves, their eyes cast down, hastening towards their Summoner as locusts rushing about. |
| 8. * | These disbelievers will say, "This is a hard day". |
| 9. * | The people of Noah, who lived before them, had also rejected (Our guidance). They rejected Our servant and said, "He is an insane person so let us drive him away". |
| 10. * | Noah prayed, "Lord, help me; I am defeated". |
| 11. * | We opened the gates of the sky and water started to pour down. |
| 12. * | We caused the earth to burst forth with springs so that the waters could come together for a predestined purpose. |
| 13. * | We carried him, (Noah), on a vessel built with boards fixed together with nails, |
| 14. * | which floated on the water before Our very eyes. The flood was a recompense for the deeds of the disbelievers. |
| 15. * | We made (the story of Noah) as evidence of the Truth. However, is there anyone who would take heed? |
| 16. * | How terrible was My torment and the result of (their disregard) of My warning. |
| 17. * | We have made the Quran easy to understand, but is there anyone who would pay attention? |
| 18. * | The people of `Ad rejected Our guidance. How terrible was My torment and the result (of their disregard) of My warning. |
| 19. * | On an unfortunate day We sent upon them a continuous violent wind |
| 20. * | which hurled people around like uprooted trunks of palm-trees. |
| 21. * | How terrible was Our torment and the result of (their disregard) of Our warning. |
| 22. * | We have made the Quran easy to understand, but is there anyone who would pay attention? |
| 23. * | The people of Thamud rejected Our warnings. |
| 24. * | They said, "Should we follow only one person among us. We shall be clearly in error and in trouble (if we do so). |
| 25. * | How is it that he has received guidance? In fact, he is the most untruthfull and arrogant person". |
| 26. * | (We told Salih), "Tomorrow they will know who is the most arrogant liar. |
| 27. * | We are sending the she-camel to them to test them. So watch them and be patient. |
| 28. * | Tell them that each one of them has the right to have a certain share of water". |
| 29. * | They called together their companions and agreed to slay the she-camel. |
| 30. * | How terrible was My punishment and warning. |
| 31. * | We sent upon them a single blast of sound and they were left like hay to be used by the cattle. |
| 32. * | We made the Quran easy to understand, but is there anyone who would take heed? |
| 33. * | The people of Lot rejected Our warning. |
| 34. * | We sent down upon them a violent sandstorm (which destroyed them all) except for the family of Lot, whom We saved in the early morning by Our favor. |
| 35. * | Thus do We recompense the grateful ones. |
| 36. * | Lot warned them against Our torment, but they persistently disputed it. |
| 37. * | They demanded that he turn over his guests to them. |
| 38. * | We struck their faces, blinded them and said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". |
| 39. * | One early morning Our torment brought upon them utter destruction. We said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". |
| 40. * | We have made the Quran easy to understand, but is there anyone who would pay attention? |
| 41. * | The Pharaoh and his people had also received Our warning, |
| 42. * | but they rejected all Our miracles. So We seized them in the way that a Majestic and All-powerful One would. |
| 43. * | Are you disbelievers mightier than those of the nations which We destroyed before or have you received amnesty through the ancient Scriptures? |
| 44. * | Do they say, "We shall be victorious because we are united?". |
| 45. * | (Let them know that) this united group will soon run away in defeat. |
| 46. * | In fact, the Hour of Doom is the time for them to suffer. The suffering of this hour is the most calamitous and the most bitter (of all suffering). |
| 47. * | The sinful ones will face the destructive torment of hell |
| 48. * | when they will be dragged on their faces into the fire and will be told, "Feel the touch of hell". |
| 49. * | We have created everything to fulfill a certain purpose. |
| 50. * | It takes only a single command from Us (to bring the Day of Judgment) and that can be achieved within the twinkling of an eye. |
| 51. * | We destroyed many people like you (disbelievers) but is there anyone who would take heed (of Our warning)? |
| 52. * | Whatever they have done has been recorded in the Books (records of the deeds). |
| 53. * | Every small or great deed is written down. |
| 54. * | The pious ones will live in Paradise wherein streams flow, |
| 55. * | honorably seated in the presence of the All-dominant King. |
