Wala tamnun tastakthiru
وَلَا تَمْنُن تَسْتَكْثِرُ
And give not a thing in order to have more (or consider not your deeds of obedience to Allah as a favour to Him).

Faitha nuqira fee alnnaqoori
فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِي النَّاقُورِ
Then, when the Trumpet is sounded (i.e. the second blowing of the horn).
فإذا نقر في الناقور
Fathalika yawmaithin yawmun AAaseerun
فَذَٰلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌ
Truly, that Day will be a Hard Day -
فذلك يومئذ يوم عسير
AAala alkafireena ghayru yaseerin
عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ غَيْرُ يَسِيرٍ
Far from easy for the disbelievers.
على الكافرين غير يسير
Tharnee waman khalaqtu waheedan
ذَرْنِي وَمَنْ خَلَقْتُ وَحِيدًا
Leave Me Alone (to deal) with whom I created lonely (without any wealth or children etc, i.e. Al-Walid bin Al-Mughirah Al-Makhzumi)!
ذرني ومن خلقت وحيدا
WajaAAaltu lahu malan mamdoodan
وَجَعَلْتُ لَهُ مَالًا مَّمْدُودًا
And then granted him resources in abundance.
وجعلت له مالا ممدودا
Wabaneena shuhoodan
وَبَنِينَ شُهُودًا
And children to be by his side.
وبنين شهودا
Wamahhadtu lahu tamheedan
وَمَهَّدتُّ لَهُ تَمْهِيدًا
And made life smooth and comfortable for him.
ومهدت له تمهيدا
Thumma yatmaAAu an azeeda
ثُمَّ يَطْمَعُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ
After all that he desires that I should give more;
ثم يطمع أن أزيد
Kalla innahu kana liayatina AAaneedan
كَلَّا ۖ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لِآيَاتِنَا عَنِيدًا
Nay! Verily, he has been opposing Our Ayat (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations).
كلا ۖ إنه كان لآياتنا عنيدا
Saorhiquhu saAAoodan
سَأُرْهِقُهُ صَعُودًا
I shall oblige him to (climb a slippery mountain in the Hell-fire called As-Sa'ud, or) face a severe torment!
سأرهقه صعودا
Innahu fakkara waqaddara
إِنَّهُ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ
Verily, he thought and plotted.
إنه فكر وقدر
Faqutila kayfa qaddara
فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
So let him be cursed: how he plotted!
فقتل كيف قدر
Thumma qutila kayfa qaddara
ثُمَّ قُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
And once more let him be cursed: how he plotted!
ثم قتل كيف قدر
Thumma nathara
ثُمَّ نَظَرَ
Then he thought.
ثم نظر
Thumma AAabasa wabasara
ثُمَّ عَبَسَ وَبَسَرَ
Then he frowned and he looked in a bad tempered way;
ثم عبس وبسر
Thumma adbara waistakbara
ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ
Then he turned back, and was proud.
ثم أدبر واستكبر
Faqala in hatha illa sihrun yutharu
فَقَالَ إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ يُؤْثَرُ
Then he said: "This is nothing but magic from that of old,
فقال إن هذا إلا سحر يؤثر
In hatha illa qawlu albashari
إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا قَوْلُ الْبَشَرِ
"This is nothing but the word of a human being!"
إن هذا إلا قول البشر
Saosleehi saqara
سَأُصْلِيهِ سَقَرَ
I will cast him into Hell-fire.
سأصليه سقر
Wama adraka ma saqaru
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سَقَرُ
And what will make you know (exactly) what Hell-fire is?
وما أدراك ما سقر
La tubqee wala tatharu
لَا تُبْقِي وَلَا تَذَرُ
It spares not (any sinner), nor does it leave (anything unburnt)!
لا تبقي ولا تذر
Lawwahatun lilbashari
لَوَّاحَةٌ لِّلْبَشَرِ
Burning and blackening the skins!
لواحة للبشر
AAalayha tisAAata AAashara

وَمَا جَعَلْنَا أَصْحَابَ النَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَائِكَةً ۙ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَيَزْدَادَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِيمَانًا ۙ وَلَا يَرْتَابَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۙ وَلِيَقُولَ الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ وَالْكَافِرُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلًا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَن يَشَاءُ ۚ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَىٰ لِلْبَشَرِ
And We have set none but angels as guardians of the Fire. And We have fixed their number (19) only as a trial for the disbelievers, in order that the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) may arrive at a certainty [that this Qur'an is the truth as it agrees with their Books regarding the number (19) which is written in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] and that the believers may increase in Faith (as this Qur'an is the truth), and that no doubt may be left for the people of the Scripture and the believers, and that those in whose hearts is a disease (of hypocrisy) and the disbelievers may say: "What Allah intends by this (curious) example ?" Thus Allah leads astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none can know the hosts of your Lord but He. And this (Hell) is nothing else than a (warning) reminder to mankind.
وما جعلنا أصحاب النار إلا ملائكة ۙ وما جعلنا عدتهم إلا فتنة للذين كفروا ليستيقن الذين أوتوا الكتاب ويزداد الذين آمنوا إيمانا ۙ ولا يرتاب الذين أوتوا الكتاب والمؤمنون ۙ وليقول الذين في قلوبهم مرض والكافرون ماذا أراد الله بهذا مثلا ۚ كذلك يضل الله من يشاء ويهدي من يشاء ۚ وما يعلم جنود ربك إلا هو ۚ وما هي إلا ذكرى للبشر
Kalla waalqamari
كَلَّا وَالْقَمَرِ
Nay! And by the moon
كلا والقمر
Waallayli ith adbara
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذْ أَدْبَرَ
And by the night when it withdraws.
والليل إذ أدبر
Waalssubhi itha asfara
وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا أَسْفَرَ
And by the dawn when it brightens.
والصبح إذا أسفر
Innaha laihda alkubari
إِنَّهَا لَإِحْدَى الْكُبَرِ
Verily, it (Hell, or their denial of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم, or the Day of Resurrection) is but one of the greatest (signs).
إنها لإحدى الكبر
Natheeran lilbashari
نَذِيرًا لِّلْبَشَرِ
A warning to mankind -
نذيرا للبشر
Liman shaa minkum an yataqaddama aw yataakhkhara
لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ
To any of you that chooses to go forward (by working righteous deeds), or to remain behind (by committing sins).
لمن شاء منكم أن يتقدم أو يتأخر
Kullu nafsin bima kasabat raheenatun
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَةٌ
Every person is a pledge for what he has earned,
كل نفس بما كسبت رهينة
Illa ashaba alyameeni
إِلَّا أَصْحَابَ الْيَمِينِ
Except those on the Right, (i.e. the pious true believers of Islamic Monotheism).
إلا أصحاب اليمين
Fee jannatin yatasaaloona
فِي جَنَّاتٍ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ
In Gardens (Paradise) they will ask one another,
في جنات يتساءلون
AAani almujrimeena
عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ
About Al-Mujrimun (polytheists, criminals, disbelievers), (And they will say to them):
عن المجرمين
Ma salakakum fee saqara
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِي سَقَرَ
"What has caused you to enter Hell?"
ما سلككم في سقر
Qaloo lam naku mina almusalleena
قَالُوا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ
They will say: "We were not of those who used to offer the Salat (prayers),
قالوا لم نك من المصلين
Walam naku nutAAimu almiskeena
وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ
"Nor we used to feed Al-Miskin (the poor);
ولم نك نطعم المسكين
Wakunna nakhoodu maAAa alkhaideena
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ
"And we used to talk falsehood (all that which Allah hated) with vain talkers.
وكنا نخوض مع الخائضين
Wakunna nukaththibu biyawmi alddeeni
وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
And we used to belie the Day of Recompense,
وكنا نكذب بيوم الدين
Hatta atana alyaqeenu
حَتَّىٰ أَتَانَا الْيَقِينُ
"Until there came to us (the death) that is certain."
حتى أتانا اليقين
Fama tanfaAAuhum shafaAAatu alshshafiAAeena
فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
So no intercession of intercessors will be of any use to them.
فما تنفعهم شفاعة الشافعين
Fama lahum AAani alttathkirati muAArideena
فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ التَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِينَ
Then what is wrong with them (i.e. the polytheists, the disbelievers) that they turn away from (receiving) admonition?
فما لهم عن التذكرة معرضين
Kaannahum humurun mustanfiratun
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُّسْتَنفِرَةٌ
As if they were (frightened) wild donkeys.
كأنهم حمر مستنفرة
Farrat min qaswaratin
فَرَّتْ مِن قَسْوَرَةٍ
Fleeing from a hunter, or a lion, or a beast of prey.
فرت من قسورة
Bal yureedu kullu imriin minhum an yuta suhufan munashsharatan
بَلْ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ أَن يُؤْتَىٰ صُحُفًا مُّنَشَّرَةً
Nay, everyone of them desires that he should be given pages spread out (coming from Allah with a writing that Islam is the right religion, and Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم has come with the truth from Allah, the Lord of the heavens and earth).
بل يريد كل امرئ منهم أن يؤتى صحفا منشرة
Kalla bal la yakhafoona alakhirata
كَلَّا ۖ بَل لَّا يَخَافُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
Nay! But they fear not the Hereafter (from Allah's punishment).
كلا ۖ بل لا يخافون الآخرة
Kalla innahu tathkiratun
كَلَّا إِنَّهُ تَذْكِرَةٌ
Nay, verily, this (Qur'an) is an admonition,
كلا إنه تذكرة
Faman shaa thakarahu
فَمَن شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ
So whosoever will (let him read it), and receive admonition (from it)!
فمن شاء ذكره
Wama yathkuroona illa an yashaa Allahu huwa ahlu alttaqwa waahlu almaghfirati
وَمَا يَذْكُرُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ هُوَ أَهْلُ التَّقْوَىٰ وَأَهْلُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
And they will not receive admonition unless Allah wills; He (Allah) is the One, deserving that mankind should be afraid of, and should be dutiful to Him, and should not take any Ilah (god) along with Him, and He is the One Who forgives (sins).
وما يذكرون إلا أن يشاء الله ۚ هو أهل التقوى وأهل المغفرة
