Chapter 85, 22 verses
I swear by the mansions of the stars,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والسماء ذات البروج
Waalssamai thati alburooji
And the promised day,
واليوم الموعود
Waalyawmi almawAAoodi
And the bearer of witness and those against whom the witness is borne.
وشاهد ومشهود
Washahidin wamashhoodin
Cursed be the makers of the pit,
قتل أصحاب الأخدود
Qutila ashabu alukhdoodi
Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel,
النار ذات الوقود
Alnnari thati alwaqoodi
When they sat by it,
إذ هم عليها قعود
Ith hum AAalayha quAAoodun
And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers.
وهم على ما يفعلون بالمؤمنين شهود
Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bialmumineena shuhoodun
And they did not take vengeance on them for aught except that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praised,
وما نقموا منهم إلا أن يؤمنوا بالله العزيز الحميد
Wama naqamoo minhum illa an yuminoo biAllahi alAAazeezi alhameedi
Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is a Witness of all things.
الذي له ملك السماوات والأرض ۚ والله على كل شيء شهيد
Allathee lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi waAllahu AAala kulli shayin shaheedun
Surely (as for) those who persecute the believing men and the believing women, then do not repent, they shall have the chastisement of hell, and they shall have the chastisement of burning.
إن الذين فتنوا المؤمنين والمؤمنات ثم لم يتوبوا فلهم عذاب جهنم ولهم عذاب الحريق
Inna allatheena fatanoo almumineena waalmuminati thumma lam yatooboo falahum AAathabu jahannama walahum AAathabu alhareeqi
Surely (as for) those who believe and do good, they shall have gardens beneath which rivers flow, that is the great achievement.
إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات لهم جنات تجري من تحتها الأنهار ۚ ذلك الفوز الكبير
Inna allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum jannatun tajree min tahtiha alanharu thalika alfawzu alkabeeru
Surely the might of your Lord is great.
إن بطش ربك لشديد
Inna batsha rabbika lashadeedun
Surely He it is Who originates and reproduces,
إنه هو يبدئ ويعيد
Innahu huwa yubdio wayuAAeedu
And He is the Forgiving, the Loving,
وهو الغفور الودود
Wahuwa alghafooru alwadoodu
Lord of the Arsh, the Glorious,
ذو العرش المجيد
Thoo alAAarshi almajeedi
The great doer of what He will.
فعال لما يريد
FaAAAAalun lima yureedu
Has not there come to you the story of the hosts,
هل أتاك حديث الجنود
Hal ataka hadeethu aljunoodi
Of Firon and Samood?
فرعون وثمود
FirAAawna wathamooda
Nay! those who disbelieve are in (the act of) giving the lie to the truth.
بل الذين كفروا في تكذيب
Bali allatheena kafaroo fee taktheebin
And Allah encompasses them on every side.
والله من ورائهم محيط
WaAllahu min waraihim muheetun
Nay! it is a glorious Quran,
بل هو قرآن مجيد
Bal huwa quranun majeedun
In a guarded tablet.
