Kalla innahu kana liayatina AAaneedan
No! Indeed, he has been toward Our verses obstinate.
كَلَّا ۖ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لِآيَاتِنَا عَنِيدًا
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لِءَايَٰتِنَا عَنِيدًا

I will cover him with arduous torment.
سَأُرْهِقُهُ صَعُودًا
سَأُرْهِقُهُۥ صَعُودًا

إِنَّهُ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ
إِنَّهُۥ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ
Faqutila kayfa qaddara
So may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.
فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ
Thumma qutila kayfa qaddara
Then may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.

ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ وَٱسْتَكْبَرَ
Faqala in hatha illa sihrun yutharu
And said, "This is not but magic imitated [from others].
فَقَالَ إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ يُؤْثَرُ
فَقَالَ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ يُؤْثَرُ
In hatha illa qawlu albashari
This is not but the word of a human being."
إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا قَوْلُ الْبَشَرِ
إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا قَوْلُ ٱلْبَشَرِ

It lets nothing remain and leaves nothing [unburned],
لَا تُبْقِي وَلَا تَذَرُ

Lawwahatun lilbashari
Blackening the skins.

AAalayha tisAAata AAashara
Over it are nineteen [angels].
عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ
عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ
Wama jaAAalna ashaba alnnari illa malaikatan wama jaAAalna AAiddatahum illa fitnatan lillatheena kafaroo liyastayqina allatheena ootoo alkitaba wayazdada allatheena amanoo eemanan wala yartaba allatheena ootoo alkitaba waalmuminoona waliyaqoola allatheena fee quloobihim maradun waalkafiroona matha arada Allahu bihatha mathalan kathalika yudillu Allahu man yashao wayahdee man yashao wama yaAAlamu junooda rabbika illa huwa wama hiya illa thikra lilbashari
And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is hypocrisy and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allah intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allah leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And mention of the Fire is not but a reminder to humanity.
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

Innaha laihda alkubari
Indeed, the Fire is of the greatest [afflictions]
إِنَّهَا لَإِحْدَى الْكُبَرِ
إِنَّهَا لَإِحْدَى ٱلْكُبَرِ
Natheeran lilbashari
As a warning to humanity -
نَذِيرًا لِّلْبَشَرِ
نَذِيرًا لِّلْبَشَرِ
Liman shaa minkum an yataqaddama aw yataakhkhara
To whoever wills among you to proceed or stay behind.
لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ
لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ
Kullu nafsin bima kasabat raheenatun
Every soul, for what it has earned, will be retained

فِى جَنَّٰتٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
AAani almujrimeena
About the criminals,
عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ
عَنِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
Ma salakakum fee saqara
[And asking them], "What put you into Saqar?"
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِي سَقَرَ
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِى سَقَرَ
Qaloo lam naku mina almusalleena
They will say, "We were not of those who prayed,
قَالُوا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ
قَالُوا۟ لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ ٱلْمُصَلِّينَ
Walam naku nutAAimu almiskeena
Nor did we used to feed the poor.
وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ
وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ ٱلْمِسْكِينَ
Wakunna nakhoodu maAAa alkhaideena
And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who engaged [in it],
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ ٱلْخَآئِضِينَ
Wakunna nukaththibu biyawmi alddeeni
And we used to deny the Day of Recompense

وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
Hatta atana alyaqeenu
Until there came to us the certainty."
حَتَّىٰ أَتَانَا الْيَقِينُ
حَتَّىٰٓ أَتَىٰنَا ٱلْيَقِينُ
Fama tanfaAAuhum shafaAAatu alshshafiAAeena
So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.
فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمْ شَفَٰعَةُ ٱلشَّٰفِعِينَ
Fama lahum AAani alttathkirati muAArideena
Then what is [the matter] with them that they are, from the reminder, turning away
فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ التَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِينَ
فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلتَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِينَ
Kaannahum humurun mustanfiratun
As if they were alarmed donkeys
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُّسْتَنفِرَةٌ
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُّسْتَنفِرَةٌ
Farrat min qaswaratin
Fleeing from a lion?
فَرَّتْ مِن قَسْوَرَةٍ
فَرَّتْ مِن قَسْوَرَةٍۭ
Bal yureedu kullu imriin minhum an yuta suhufan munashsharatan
Rather, every person among them desires that he would be given scriptures spread about.
بَلْ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ أَن يُؤْتَىٰ صُحُفًا مُّنَشَّرَةً
بَلْ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ أَن يُؤْتَىٰ صُحُفًا مُّنَشَّرَةً
Kalla bal la yakhafoona alakhirata
No! But they do not fear the Hereafter.
كَلَّا ۖ بَل لَّا يَخَافُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
كَلَّا بَل لَّا يَخَافُونَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةَ
Kalla innahu tathkiratun
No! Indeed, the Qur'an is a reminder
كَلَّا إِنَّهُ تَذْكِرَةٌ
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُۥ تَذْكِرَةٌ
Faman shaa thakarahu
Then whoever wills will remember it.
فَمَن شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ
فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ
Wama yathkuroona illa an yashaa Allahu huwa ahlu alttaqwa waahlu almaghfirati
And they will not remember except that Allah wills. He is worthy of fear and adequate for [granting] forgiveness.
وَمَا يَذْكُرُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ هُوَ أَهْلُ التَّقْوَىٰ وَأَهْلُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
وَمَا يَذْكُرُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ هُوَ أَهْلُ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ وَأَهْلُ ٱلْمَغْفِرَةِ
