আল ক্বেয়ামাহ

1 Nay! I swear by the day of resurrection.

1 La oqsimu biyawmi alqiyamati

2 Nay! I swear by the self - accusing soul.

2 Wala oqsimu bialnnafsi allawwamati

3 Does man think that We shall not gather his bones?

3 Ayahsabu alinsanu allan najmaAAa AAithamahu

4 Yea! We are able to make complete his very fingertips

4 Bala qadireena AAala an nusawwiya bananahu

5 Nay! man desires to give the lie to what is before him.

5 Bal yureedu alinsanu liyafjura amamahu

6 He asks: When is the day of resurrection?

6 Yasalu ayyana yawmu alqiyamati

7 So when the sight becomes dazed,

7 Faitha bariqa albasaru

8 And the moon becomes dark,

8 Wakhasafa alqamaru

9 And the sun and the moon are brought together,

9 WajumiAAa alshshamsu waalqamaru

10 Man shall say on that day: Whither to fly to?

10 Yaqoolu alinsanu yawmaithin ayna almafarru

11 By no means! there shall be no place of refuge!

11 Kalla la wazara

12 With your Lord alone shall on that day be the place of rest.

12 Ila rabbika yawmaithin almustaqarru

13 Man shall on that day be informed of what he sent before and (what he) put off.

13 Yunabbao alinsanu yawmaithin bima qaddama waakhkhara

14 Nay! man is evidence against himself,

14 Bali alinsanu AAala nafsihi baseeratun

15 Though he puts forth his excuses.

15 Walaw alqa maAAatheerahu

16 Do not move your tongue with it to make haste with it,

16 La tuharrik bihi lisanaka litaAAjala bihi

17 Surely on Us (devolves) the collecting of it and the reciting of it.

17 Inna AAalayna jamAAahu waquranahu

18 Therefore when We have recited it, follow its recitation.

18 Faitha qaranahu faittabiAA quranahu

19 Again on Us (devolves) the explaining of it.

19 Thumma inna AAalayna bayanahu

20 Nay! But you love the present life,

20 Kalla bal tuhibboona alAAajilata

21 And neglect the hereafter.

21 Watatharoona alakhirata

22 (Some) faces on that day shall be bright,

22 Wujoohun yawmaithin nadiratun

23 Looking to their Lord.

23 Ila rabbiha nathiratun

24 And (other) faces on that day shall be gloomy,

24 Wawujoohun yawmaithin basiratun

25 Knowing that there will be made to befall them some great calamity.

25 Tathunnu an yufAAala biha faqiratun

26 Nay! When it comes up to the throat,

26 Kalla itha balaghati alttaraqiya

27 And it is said: Who will be a magician?

27 Waqeela man raqin

28 And he is sure that it is the (hour of) parting

28 Wathanna annahu alfiraqu

29 And affliction is combined with affliction;

29 Wailtaffati alssaqu bialssaqi

30 To your Lord on that day shall be the driving.

30 Ila rabbika yawmaithin almasaqu

31 So he did not accept the truth, nor did he pray,

31 Fala saddaqa wala salla

32 But called the truth a lie and turned back,

32 Walakin kaththaba watawalla

33 Then he went to his followers, walking away in haughtiness.

33 Thumma thahaba ila ahlihi yatamatta

34 Nearer to you (is destruction) and nearer,

34 Awla laka faawla

35 Again (consider how) nearer to you and nearer.

35 Thumma awla laka faawla

36 Does man think that he is to be left to wander without an aim?

36 Ayahsabu alinsanu an yutraka sudan

37 Was he not a small seed in the seminal elements,

37 Alam yaku nutfatan min manayyin yumna

38 Then he was a clot of blood, so He created (him) then made (him) perfect.

38 Thumma kana AAalaqatan fakhalaqa fasawwa

39 Then He made of him two kinds, the male and the female.

39 FajaAAala minhu alzzawjayni alththakara waalontha

40 Is not He able to give life to the dead?

40 Alaysa thalika biqadirin AAala an yuhyiya almawta
