| 1. * | By those scattering broadcast! |
| 2. * | And those bearing the load! |
| 3. * | And those running easily! |
| 4. * | And those distributing the Affair! -- |
| 5. * | What you are promised is surely true, |
| 6. * | And the Judgment will surely come to pass. |
| 7. * | By the heaven full of paths! |
| 8. * | Surely you are of warying opinion -- |
| 9. * | He is turned away from it who would be turned away. |
| 10. * | Cursed by the liars! |
| 11. * | Who are in an abyss, neglectful; |
| 12. * | They ask: When is the day of Judgment? |
| 13. * | (It is) the day when they are tried at the Fire. |
| 14. * | Taste your persecution! This is what you would hasten on. |
| 15. * | Surely the dutiful are amidst Gardens and fountains, |
| 16. * | Taking that which their Lord gives them. Surely they were before that the doers of good. |
| 17. * | The used to sleep but little at night. |
| 18. * | And in the morning they asked (Divine) protection. |
| 19. * | And in their wealth there was a due share for the beggar and for one who is denied (good). |
| 20. * | And in the earth are signs for those who are sure, |
| 21. * | And in yourselves -- do you not see? |
| 22. * | And in the heavens is your sustenance and that which you are promised. |
| 23. * | So by the Lord of the heavens and the earth! it is surely the truth, just as you speak. |
| 24. * | Has the story of Abraham’s honoured guests reached thee? |
| 25. * | When they came to him, they said: Peace! Peace! said he. Strangers! |
| 26. * | Then he turned aside to his family and brought a fat calf. |
| 27. * | So he placed it before them. He said: Will you not eat? |
| 28. * | So he conceived a fear of them. They said: Fear not. And they gave him the good news of a boy possessing knowledge. |
| 29. * | Then his wife came up in grief, and she smote her face and said: A barren old woman! |
| 30. * | They said: Thus says thy Lord. Surely He is the Wise, the Knowing. |
| 31. * | He said: What is your errand, O messengers! |
| 32. * | They said: We have been sent to a guilty people |
| 33. * | That we may send upon them stones of clay. |
| 34. * | Marked from thy Lord for the prodigal. |
| 35. * | Then we brought forth such believers as were there. |
| 36. * | And We found there but a (single) house of Muslims. |
| 37. * | And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful chastisement. |
| 38. * | And in Moses, when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority. |
| 39. * | But he turned away on account of his might and said: An enchanter or a madman! |
| 40. * | So We seized him and his hosts and hurled them into the sea, and he was blameable. |
| 41. * | And in ‘Ad, when We sent upon them the destructive wind. |
| 42. * | It spared naught that it came against, but it made it like ashes. |
| 43. * | And in Thamud, when it was said to them: Enjoy yourselves for a while. |
| 44. * | But they revolted against the commandment of their Lord, so the punishment overtook them, while they saw. |
| 45. * | So they were unable to rise up, nor could they defend themselves; |
| 46. * | And the people of Noah before. Surely they were a transgressing people. |
| 47. * | And the heaven, We raised it high with power, and We are Makers of the vast extent. |
| 48. * | And the earth, We have spread it out. How well We prepared it! |
| 49. * | And of everything We have created pairs that you may be mindful. |
| 50. * | So flee to Allah. Surely I am a plain warner to you from Him. |
| 51. * | And do not set up with Allah another god. Surely I am a plain warner to you from Him. |
| 52. * | Thus there came not a messenger to those before them but they said: An enchanter or a madman! |
| 53. * | Have they charged each other with this? Nay, they are an inordinate people. |
| 54. * | So turn away from them, for thou art not to blame; |
| 55. * | And remind, for reminding profits the believers. |
| 56. * | And I have not created the jinn and the men except that they should serve Me. |
| 57. * | I desire no sustenance from them, nor do I desire that they should feed Me. |
| 58. * | Surely Allah is the Bestower of sustenance, the Lord of Power, the Strong. |
| 59. * | Surely the lot of the wrongdoers is as was the lot of their companions, so let them not ask Me to hasten on. |
| 60. * | Woe, then, to those who disbelieve because of that day of theirs which they are promised! |
