الـنازعات

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By those who drag forth to destruction,

1 I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

2 By the meteors rushing,

2 And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

3 By the lone stars floating,

3 And by those who float in space,

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

4 By the angels hastening,

4 Then those who are foremost going ahead,

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

5 And those who govern the event,

5 Then those who regulate the affair.

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

6 On the day when the first trump resoundeth.

6 The day on which the quaking one shall quake,

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

7 And the second followeth it,

7 What must happen afterwards shall follow it.

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

8 On that day hearts beat painfully

8 Hearts on that day shall palpitate,

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

9 While eyes are downcast

9 Their eyes cast down.

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

10 (Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

10 They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

11 Even after we are crumbled bones ?

11 What! when we are rotten bones?

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

12 They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding.

12 They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

13 Surely it will need but one shout,

13 But it shall be only a single cry,

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

14 And lo! they will be awakened.

14 When lo! they shall be wakeful.

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

15 Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses ?

15 Has not there come to you the story of Musa?

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

16 How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa,

16 When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

17 (Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled -

17 Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

18 And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace) ?

18 Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

19 Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him).

19 And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

20 And he showed him the tremendous token.

20 So he showed him the mighty sign.

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

21 But he denied and disobeyed,

21 But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

22 Then turned he away in haste,

22 Then he went back hastily.

23 Fahashara fanada

23 Then gathered he and summoned

23 Then he gathered (men) and called out.

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

24 And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest."

24 Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

25 So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former.

25 So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

26 Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth.

26 Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

27 Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built ?

27 Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

28 He raised the height thereof and ordered it;

28 He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

29 And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof.

29 And He made dark its night and brought out its light.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

30 And after that He spread the earth,

30 And the earth, He expanded it after that.

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

31 And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof,

31 He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.

32 Waaljibala arsaha

32 And He made fast the hills,

32 And the mountains, He made them firm,

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

34 But when the great disaster cometh,

34 But when the great predominating calamity comes;

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

35 The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour,

35 The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

36 And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth,

36 And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees

37 Faamma man tagha

37 Then, as for him who rebelled

37 Then as for him who is inordinate,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

38 And chose the life of the world,

38 And prefers the life of this world,

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

39 Lo! hell will be his home.

39 Then surely the hell, that is the abode.

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

40 But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust,

40 And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

41 Lo! the Garden will be his home.

41 Then surely the garden - - that is the abode.

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

42 They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port ?

42 They ask you about the hour, when it will come.

43 Feema anta min thikraha

43 Why (ask they) ? What hast thou to tell thereof ?

43 About what! You are one to remind of it.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

44 Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof.

44 To your Lord is the goal of it.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

45 Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it.

45 You are only a warner to him who would fear it.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

46 On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof.

46 On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
