AAamma yatasaaloona

About what are they asking one another?

AAani alnnabai alAAatheemi

About the momentous news[1],

Allathee hum feehi mukhtalifoona

that which they differ about[2].

Kalla sayaAAlamoona

No indeed; they will come to know.

Thumma kalla sayaAAlamoona

Again no; they will come to know.

Alam najAAali alarda mihadan

Have We not made the earth a resting place?

Waaljibala awtadan

And the mountains as stakes[3],

Wakhalaqnakum azwajan

and created you in pairs,

WajaAAalna nawmakum subatan

and made your sleep for rest,

WajaAAalna allayla libasan

and made the night a covering[4],

WajaAAalna alnnahara maAAashan

and made the day for seeking a livelihood,

Wabanayna fawqakum sabAAan shidadan

and built above you seven mighty heavens,

WajaAAalna sirajan wahhajan

and made therein a blazing lamp,

Waanzalna mina almuAAsirati maan thajjajan

and sent down from the rainclouds abundant water,

Linukhrija bihi habban wanabatan

so that We may produce thereby grains and vegetation,

Wajannatin alfafan

and gardens with dense foliage?

Inna yawma alfasli kana meeqatan

Indeed, the Day of Judgment is a time appointed,

Yawma yunfakhu fee alssoori fatatoona afwajan

the Day when the Trumpet will be blown, you will come forth in crowds,

Wafutihati alssamao fakanat abwaban

and the sky will be opened up and will become gateways,

Wasuyyirati aljibalu fakanat saraban

and the mountains will vanish, becoming like a mirage.

Inna jahannama kanat mirsadan

Indeed, Hell is lying in wait,

Lilttagheena maaban

a resort for the transgressors,

Labitheena feeha ahqaban

wherein they will abide for endless ages.

La yathooqoona feeha bardan wala sharaban

They will neither taste therein any coolness nor any drink,

Illa hameeman waghassaqan

except for scalding water and discharge of wounds,

Jazaan wifaqan

a fitting recompense[5].

Innahum kanoo la yarjoona hisaban

Indeed, they did not expect a reckoning,

Wakaththaboo biayatina kiththaban

and utterly rejected Our verses.

Wakulla shayin ahsaynahu kitaban

But We have enumerated everything in a record[6].

Fathooqoo falan nazeedakum illa AAathaban

So taste [the punishment], for We will not increase you except in torment[7].”

Inna lilmuttaqeena mafazan

Indeed, the righteous will have salvation[8],

Hadaiqa waaAAnaban

gardens and vineyards,

WakawaAAiba atraban

and full-bosomed maidens of equal age,

Wakasan dihaqan

and a full cup [of wine][9].

La yasmaAAoona feeha laghwan wala kiththaban

They will not hear therein vain talk or lies –

Jazaan min rabbika AAataan hisaban

a reward and a generous gift from your Lord[10],

Rabbi alssamawati waalardi wama baynahuma alrrahmani la yamlikoona minhu khitaban

[from] the Lord of the heavens and earth and all that is between them, the Most Compassionate; none will dare to speak to Him[11].

Yawma yaqoomu alrroohu waalmalaikatu saffan la yatakallamoona illa man athina lahu alrrahmanu waqala sawaban

On the Day when the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows; none will dare to speak, except those to whom the Most Compassionate granted permission, and they will only speak the truth.

Thalika alyawmu alhaqqu faman shaa ittakhatha ila rabbihi maaban

That Day is sure to come. So whoever wills may seek a path leading to his Lord[12].

Inna antharnakum AAathaban qareeban yawma yanthuru almaro ma qaddamat yadahu wayaqoolu alkafiru ya laytanee kuntu turaban

Indeed, We have warned you of an imminent punishment on the Day when everyone will see what his hands have sent forth[13], and the disbeliever will say, “Oh, I wish that I were dust!”
