وَالْيَوْمِ الْمَوْعُودِ
And the promised day,
Washahidin wamashhoodin
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ

النَّارِ ذَاتِ الْوَقُودِ
Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel,
Ith hum AAalayha quAAoodun
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ
When they sat by it,
Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bialmumineena shuhoodun
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers.
Wama naqamoo minhum illa an yuminoo biAllahi alAAazeezi alhameedi
وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ
And they did not take vengeance on them for aught except that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praised,
Allathee lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi waAllahu AAala kulli shayin shaheedun
الَّذِي لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ
Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is a Witness of all things.

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.
