وَلَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَلَدَيْنَا كِتَٰبٌ يَنطِقُ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
Nay, their hearts are in overwhelming ignorance with respect to it and they have besides this other deeds which they do.
But their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides disbelief which they are doing,
But their hearts are in confused ignorance of this; and there are, besides that, deeds of theirs, which they will (continue) to do, -
بَلْ قُلُوبُهُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ مِّنْ هَٰذَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْمَٰلٌ مِّن دُونِ ذَٰلِكَ هُمْ لَهَا عَٰمِلُونَ
Until when We overtake those who lead easy lives among them with punishment, lo! they cry for succor.
Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allah] for help.
Until, when We seize in Punishment those of them who received the good things of this world, behold, they will groan in supplication!
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِيهِم بِٱلْعَذَابِ إِذَا هُمْ يَجْـَٔرُونَ
Cry not for succor this day; surely you shall not be given help from Us.
Do not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped.
(It will be said): "Groan not in supplication this day: for ye shall certainly not be helped by Us.
لَا تَجْـَٔرُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنَّكُم مِّنَّا لَا تُنصَرُونَ
My communications were indeed recited to you, but you used to turn back on your heels,
My verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels
"My Signs used to be rehearsed to you, but ye used to turn back on your heels -
قَدْ كَانَتْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُمْ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْقَٰبِكُمْ تَنكِصُونَ
In arrogance; talking nonsense about the Quran, and left him like one telling fables by night.
In arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil.
"In arrogance: talking nonsense about the (Qur'an), like one telling fables by night."
مُسْتَكْبِرِينَ بِهِۦ سَٰمِرًا تَهْجُرُونَ
Is it then that they do not ponder over what is said, or is it that there has come to them that which did not come to their fathers of old?
Then have they not reflected over the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers?
Do they not ponder over the Word (of Allah), or has anything (new) come to them that did not come to their fathers of old?
أَفَلَمْ يَدَّبَّرُوا۟ ٱلْقَوْلَ أَمْ جَآءَهُم مَّا لَمْ يَأْتِ ءَابَآءَهُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Or is it that they have not recognized their Apostle, so that they deny him?
Or did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging?
Or do they not recognise their Messenger, that they deny him?
أَمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا۟ رَسُولَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَهُۥ مُنكِرُونَ
Or do they say: There is madness in him? Nay! he has brought them the truth, and most of them are averse from the truth.
Or do they say, "In him is madness?" Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse.
Or do they say, "He is possessed"? Nay, he has brought them the Truth, but most of them hate the Truth.
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٌۢ بَلْ جَآءَهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَٰرِهُونَ
And should the truth follow their low desires, surely the heavens and the earth and all those who are therein would have perished. Nay! We have brought to them their reminder, but from their reminder they turn aside.
But if the Truth had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away.
If the Truth had been in accord with their desires, truly the heavens and the earth, and all beings therein would have been in confusion and corruption! Nay, We have sent them their admonition, but they turn away from their admonition.
وَلَوِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلْحَقُّ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّ بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِذِكْرِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَن ذِكْرِهِم مُّعْرِضُونَ
Or is it that you ask them a recompense? But the recompense of your Lord is best, and He is the best of those who provide sustenance.
Or do you, [O Muhammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers.
Or is it that thou askest them for some recompense? But the recompense of thy Lord is best: He is the Best of those who give sustenance.
أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ خَرْجًا فَخَرَاجُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ
And most surely you invite them to a right way.
And indeed, you invite them to a straight path.
But verily thou callest them to the Straight Way;
وَإِنَّكَ لَتَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
And most surely those who do not believe in the hereafter are deviating from the way.
But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.
And verily those who believe not in the Hereafter are deviating from that Way.
وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْءَاخِرَةِ عَنِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ لَنَٰكِبُونَ
And if We show mercy to them and remove the distress they have, they would persist in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on.
And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.
If We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering in distraction to and fro.
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
And already We overtook them with chastisement, but they were not submissive to their Lord, nor do they humble themselves.
And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]
We inflicted Punishment on them, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor do they submissively entreat (Him)! -
وَلَقَدْ أَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْعَذَابِ فَمَا ٱسْتَكَانُوا۟ لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ
Until when We open upon them a door of severe chastisement, lo! they are in despair at it.
Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.
Until We open on them a gate leading to a severe Punishment: then Lo! they will be plunged in despair therein!
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا ذَا عَذَابٍ شَدِيدٍ إِذَا هُمْ فِيهِ مُبْلِسُونَ
And He it is Who made for you the ears and the eyes and the hearts; little is it that you give thanks.
And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.
It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give!
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنشَأَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَٱلْأَبْصَٰرَ وَٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةَ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى ذَرَأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ
And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and (in) His (control) is the alternation of the night and the day; do you not then understand?

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَلَهُ ٱخْتِلَٰفُ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Nay, they say the like of what the ancients said:
Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.
On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.

They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

قَالُوٓا۟ أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
Certainly we are promised this, and (so were) our fathers aforetime; this is naught but stories of those of old.
We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."
"Such things have been promised to us and to our fathers before! they are nothing but tales of the ancients!"
لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَءَابَآؤُنَا هَٰذَا مِن قَبْلُ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Say: Whose is the earth, and whoever is therein, if you know?
Say, [O Muhammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"
Say: "To whom belong the earth and all beings therein? (say) if ye know!"

They will say: Allah's. Say: Will you not then mind?
They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember?"
They will say, "To Allah!" say: "Yet will ye not receive admonition?"
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

They will say, "[They belong] to Allah." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?"
They will say, "(They belong) to Allah." Say: "Will ye not then be filled with awe?"
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ

Nay! We have brought to them the truth, and most surely they are liars.
Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars.
We have sent them the Truth: but they indeed practise falsehood!
بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ
Never did Allah take to Himself a son, and never was there with him any (other) god - - in that case would each god have certainly taken away what he created, and some of them would certainly have overpowered others; glory be to Allah above what they describe!
Allah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him].

مَا ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِن وَلَدٍ وَمَا كَانَ مَعَهُۥ مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِذًا لَّذَهَبَ كُلُّ إِلَٰهٍۭ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَلَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
The Knower of the unseen and the seen, so may He be exalted above what they associate (with Him).
[He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him].
He knows what is hidden and what is open: too high is He for the partners they attribute to Him!
عَٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ فَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Say: O my Lord! if Thou shouldst make me see what they are threatened with:
Say, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised,

And I seek refuge in Thee! O my Lord! from their presence.
And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me."
"And I seek refuge with Thee O my Lord! lest they should come near me."

Haply I may do good in that which I have left. By no means! it is a (mere) word that he speaks; and before them is a barrier until the day they are raised.

"In order that I may work righteousness in the things I neglected." - "By no means! It is but a word he says." - Before them is a Partition till the Day they are raised up.
لَعَلِّىٓ أَعْمَلُ صَٰلِحًا فِيمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآئِلُهَا وَمِن وَرَآئِهِم بَرْزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
So when the trumpet is blown, there shall be no ties of relationship between them on that day, nor shall they ask of each other.
So when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another.
Then when the Trumpet is blown, there will be no more relationships between them that Day, nor will one ask after another!
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَلَآ أَنسَابَ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلَا يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

The fire shall scorch their faces, and they therein shall be in severe affliction.
The Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles.

تَلْفَحُ وُجُوهَهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَهُمْ فِيهَا كَٰلِحُونَ
Were not My communications recited to you? But you used to reject them.
[It will be said]. "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them?"
"Were not My Signs rehearsed to you, and ye did but treat them as falsehood?"
أَلَمْ تَكُنْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ
They shall say: O our Lord! our adversity overcame us and we were an erring people:

He will say: "Be ye driven into it (with ignominy)! And speak ye not to Me!
قَالَ ٱخْسَـُٔوا۟ فِيهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ
Surely there was a party of My servants who said: O our Lord! we believe, so do Thou forgive us and have mercy on us, and Thou art the best of the Merciful ones.
Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.'

But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them.

إِنِّى جَزَيْتُهُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ بِمَا صَبَرُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُمْ هُمُ ٱلْفَآئِزُونَ
He will say: How many years did you tarry in the earth?
[Allah] will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years?"

What! did you then think that We had created you in vain and that you shall not be returned to Us?
Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"
"Did ye then think that We had created you in jest, and that ye would not be brought back to Us (for account)?"
أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ
