In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. |
|
1. |
By the winds (or angels or the Messengers of Allah) sent forth one after another. |
2. |
And by the winds that blow violently, |
3. |
And by the winds that scatter clouds and rain; |
4. |
And by the Verses (of the Quran) that separate the right from the wrong. |
5. |
And by the angels that bring the revelations to the Messengers, |
6. |
To cut off all excuses or to warn; |
7. |
Surely, what you are promised must come to pass. |
8. |
Then when the stars lose their lights; |
9. |
And when the heaven is cleft asunder; |
10. |
And when the mountains are blown away; |
11. |
And when the Messengers are gathered to their time appointed; |
12. |
For what Day are these signs postponed? |
13. |
For the Day of sorting out (the men of Paradise from the men destined for Hell). |
14. |
And what will explain to you what is the Day of sorting out? |
15. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
16. |
Did We not destroy the ancients? |
17. |
So shall We make later generations to follow them. |
18. |
Thus do We deal with the Mujrimoon (polytheists, disbelievers, sinners, criminals, etc.)! |
19. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
20. |
Did We not create you from a worthless water (semen, etc.)? |
21. |
Then We placed it in a place of safety (womb), |
22. |
For a known period (determined by gestation)? |
23. |
So We did measure, and We are the Best to measure (the things). |
24. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
25. |
Have We not made the earth a receptacle? |
26. |
For the living and the dead. |
27. |
And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains;
and have given you to drink sweet water? |
28. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
29. |
(It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! |
30. |
"Depart you to a shadow (of Hell-fire smoke ascending) in three columns, |
31. |
"Neither shading, nor of any use against the fierce flame of the Fire." |
32. |
Verily! It (Hell) throws sparks (huge) as Al-Qasr (a fort or a Qasr (huge log of wood)), |
33. |
As if they were Jimalatun Sufr (yellow camels or bundles of ropes)." |
34. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
35. |
That will be a Day when they shall not speak (during some part of it), |
36. |
And they will not be permitted to put forth any excuse. |
37. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
38. |
That will be a Day of Decision!
We have brought you and the men of old together! |
39. |
So if you have a plot, use it against Me (Allah)! |
40. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
41. |
Verily, the Muttaqoon (pious - see V.2:2) shall be amidst shades and springs. |
42. |
And fruits, such as they desire. |
43. |
"Eat and drink comfortably for that which you used to do. |
44. |
Verily, thus We reward the Muhsinoon (good-doers). |
45. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
46. |
(O you disbelievers)! Eat and enjoy yourselves (in this worldly life) for a little while. Verily, you are the Mujrimoon (polytheists, disbelievers, sinners, criminals, etc.). |
47. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
48. |
And when it is said to them: "Bow down yourself (in prayer)!" They bow not down (offer not their prayers) . |
49. |
Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! |
50. |
Then in what statement after this (the Quran) will they believe? ********* |
