Al Nazaat

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

1 I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

2 And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

3 And by those who float in space,

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

4 Then those who are foremost going ahead,

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

5 Then those who regulate the affair.

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

6 The day on which the quaking one shall quake,

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

7 What must happen afterwards shall follow it.

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

8 Hearts on that day shall palpitate,

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

9 Their eyes cast down.

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

10 They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

11 What! when we are rotten bones?

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

12 They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

13 But it shall be only a single cry,

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

14 When lo! they shall be wakeful.

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

15 Has not there come to you the story of Musa?

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

16 When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

17 Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

18 Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

19 And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

20 So he showed him the mighty sign.

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

21 But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

22 Then he went back hastily.

23 Fahashara fanada

23 Then he gathered (men) and called out.

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

24 Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

25 So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

26 Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

27 Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

28 He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

29 And He made dark its night and brought out its light.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

30 And the earth, He expanded it after that.

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

31 He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.

32 Waaljibala arsaha

32 And the mountains, He made them firm,

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

34 But when the great predominating calamity comes;

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

35 The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

36 And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees

37 Faamma man tagha

37 Then as for him who is inordinate,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

38 And prefers the life of this world,

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

39 Then surely the hell, that is the abode.

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

40 And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

41 Then surely the garden - - that is the abode.

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

42 They ask you about the hour, when it will come.

43 Feema anta min thikraha

43 About what! You are one to remind of it.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

44 To your Lord is the goal of it.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

45 You are only a warner to him who would fear it.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

46 On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
