Al Nazaat

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

3 And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

4 And those who race each other in a race

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

6 On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

9 Their eyes humbled.

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

10 They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

12 They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

14 And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

16 When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

17 "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

18 And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

19 And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

23 Fahashara fanada

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

24 And said, "I am your most exalted lord."

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

25 So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

26 Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

27 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

28 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

29 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

30 And after that He spread the earth.

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

32 Waaljibala arsaha

32 And the mountains He set firmly

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

35 The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

36 And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

37 Faamma man tagha

37 So as for he who transgressed

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

38 And preferred the life of the world,

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

39 Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

40 But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

41 Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

42 They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

43 In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

44 To your Lord is its finality.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

45 You are only a warner for those who fear it.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

46 It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.
