I swear by the Mountain,
Waalttoori
Chapter 52, 49 verses
I swear by the Mountain,
Waalttoori
And the Book written
Wakitabin mastoorin
In an outstretched fine parchment,
Fee raqqin manshoorin
And the House (Kaaba) that is visited,
Waalbayti almaAAmoori
And the elevated canopy
Waalssaqfi almarfooAAi
And the swollen sea
Waalbahri almasjoori
Most surely the punishment of your Lord will come to pass;
Inna AAathaba rabbika lawaqiAAun
There shall be none to avert it;
Ma lahu min dafiAAin
On the day when the heaven shall move from side to side
Yawma tamooru alssamao mawran
And the mountains shall pass away passing away (altogether).
Wataseeru aljibalu sayran
So woe on that day to those who reject (the truth),
Fawaylun yawmaithin lilmukaththibeena
Those who sport entering into vain discourses.
Allatheena hum fee khawdin yalAAaboona
The day on which they shall be driven away to the fire of hell with violence.
Yawma yudaAAAAoona ila nari jahannama daAAAAan
This is the fire which you used to give the lie to.
Hathihi alnnaru allatee kuntum biha tukaththiboona
Is it magic then or do you not see?
Afasihrun hatha am antum la tubsiroona
Enter into it, then bear (it) patiently, or do not bear (it) patiently, it is the same to you; you shall be requited only (for) what you did.
Islawha faisbiroo aw la tasbiroo sawaon AAalaykum innama tujzawna ma kuntum taAAmaloona
Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and bliss
Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatin wanaAAeemin
Rejoicing because of what their Lord gave them, and their Lord saved them from the punishment of the burning fire.
Fakiheena bima atahum rabbuhum wawaqahum rabbuhum AAathaba aljaheemi
Eat and drink pleasantly for what you did,
Kuloo waishraboo haneean bima kuntum taAAmaloona
Reclining on thrones set in lines, and We will unite them to large - eyed beautiful ones.
Muttakieena AAala sururin masfoofatin wazawwajnahum bihoorin AAeenin
And (as for) those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will unite with them their offspring and We will not diminish to them aught of their work; every man is responsible for what he shall have wrought.
Waallatheena amanoo waittabaAAathum thurriyyatuhum bieemanin alhaqna bihim thurriyyatahum wama alatnahum min AAamalihim min shayin kullu imriin bima kasaba raheenun
And We will aid them with fruit and flesh such as they desire.
Waamdadnahum bifakihatin walahmin mimma yashtahoona
They shall pass therein from one to another a cup wherein there shall be nothing vain nor any sin.
YatanazaAAoona feeha kasan la laghwun feeha wala tatheemun
And round them shall go boys of theirs as if they were hidden pearls.
Wayatoofu AAalayhim ghilmanun lahum kaannahum luluon maknoonun
And some of them shall advance towards others questioning each other.
Waaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdin yatasaaloona
Saying: Surely we feared before on account of our families:
Qaloo inna kunna qablu fee ahlina mushfiqeena
But Allah has been gracious to us and He has saved us from the punishment of the hot wind:
Famanna Allahu AAalayna wawaqana AAathaba alssamoomi
Surely we called upon Him before: Surely He is the Benign, the Merciful.
Inna kunna min qablu nadAAoohu innahu huwa albarru alrraheemu
Therefore continue to remind, for by the grace of your Lord, you are not a soothsayer, or a madman.
Fathakkir fama anta biniAAmati rabbika bikahin wala majnoonin
Or do they say: A poet, we wait for him the evil accidents of time.
Am yaqooloona shaAAirun natarabbasu bihi rayba almanooni
Say: Wait, for surely I too with you am of those who wait.
Qul tarabbasoo fainnee maAAakum mina almutarabbiseena
Nay! do their understandings bid them this? Or are they an inordinate people?
Am tamuruhum ahlamuhum bihatha am hum qawmun taghoona
Or do they say: He has forged it. Nay! they do not believe.
Am yaqooloona taqawwalahu bal la yuminoona
Then let them bring an announcement like it if they are truthful.
Falyatoo bihadeethin mithlihi in kanoo sadiqeena
Or were they created without there being anything, or are they the creators?
Am khuliqoo min ghayri shayin am humu alkhaliqoona
Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay! they have no certainty.
Am khalaqoo alssamawati waalarda bal la yooqinoona
Or have they the treasures of your Lord with them? Or have they been set in absolute authority?
Am AAindahum khazainu rabbika am humu almusaytiroona
Or have they the means by which they listen? Then let their listener bring a clear authority.
Am lahum sullamun yastamiAAoona feehi falyati mustamiAAuhum bisultanin mubeenin
Or has He daughters while you have sons?
Am lahu albanatu walakumu albanoona
Or do you ask them for a reward, so that they are overburdened by a debt?
Am tasaluhum ajran fahum min maghramin muthqaloona
Or have they the unseen so that they write (it) down?
Am AAindahumu alghaybu fahum yaktuboona
Or do they desire a war? But those who disbelieve shall be the vanquished ones in war.
Am yureedoona kaydan faallatheena kafaroo humu almakeedoona
Or have they a god other than Allah? Glory be to Allah from what they set up (with Him).
Am lahum ilahun ghayru Allahi subhana Allahi AAamma yushrikoona
And if they should see a portion of the heaven coming down, they would say: Piled up clouds.
Wain yaraw kisfan mina alssamai saqitan yaqooloo sahabun markoomun
Leave them then till they meet that day of theirs wherein they shall be made to swoon (with terror):
Fatharhum hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee feehi yusAAaqoona
The day on which their struggle shall not avail them aught, nor shall they be helped.
Yawma la yughnee AAanhum kayduhum shayan wala hum yunsaroona
And surely those who are unjust shall have a punishment besides that (in the world), but most of them do not know.
Wainna lillatheena thalamoo AAathaban doona thalika walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoona
And wait patiently for the judgment of your Lord, for surely you are before Our eyes, and sing the praise of your Lord when you rise;
Waisbir lihukmi rabbika fainnaka biaAAyunina wasabbih bihamdi rabbika heena taqoomu
And in the night, give Him glory too, and at the setting of the stars.
Wamina allayli fasabbihhu waidbara alnnujoomi
