আল ক্বামার

1 The Hour (of Judgment) is nigh, and the moon is cleft asunder.

1 Iqtarabati alssaAAatu wainshaqqa alqamaru

2 But if they see a Sign, they turn away, and say, "This is (but) transient magic."

2 Wain yaraw ayatan yuAAridoo wayaqooloo sihrun mustamirrun

3 They reject (the warning) and follow their (own) lusts but every matter has its appointed time.

3 Wakaththaboo waittabaAAoo ahwaahum wakullu amrin mustaqirrun

4 There have already come to them Recitals wherein there is (enough) to check (them),

4 Walaqad jaahum mina alanbai ma feehi muzdajarun

5 Mature wisdom; - but (the preaching of) Warners profits them not.

5 Hikmatun balighatun fama tughnee alnnuthuru

6 Therefore, (O Prophet,) turn away from them. The Day that the Caller will call (them) to a terrible affair,

6 Fatawalla AAanhum yawma yadAAu alddaAAi ila shayin nukurin

7 They will come forth, - their eyes humbled - from (their) graves, (torpid) like locusts scattered abroad,

7 KhushshaAAan absaruhum yakhrujoona mina alajdathi kaannahum jaradun muntashirun

8 Hastening, with eyes transfixed, towards the Caller! - "Hard is this Day!", the Unbelievers will say.

8 MuhtiAAeena ila alddaAAi yaqoolu alkafiroona hatha yawmun AAasirun

9 Before them the People of Noah rejected (their messenger): they rejected Our servant, and said, "Here is one possessed!", and he was driven out.

9 Kaththabat qablahum qawmu noohin fakaththaboo AAabdana waqaloo majnoonun waizdujira

10 Then he called on his Lord: "I am one overcome: do Thou then help (me)!"

10 FadaAAa rabbahu annee maghloobun faintasir

11 So We opened the gates of heaven, with water pouring forth.

11 Fafatahna abwaba alssamai bimain munhamirin

12 And We caused the earth to gush forth with springs, so the waters met (and rose) to the extent decreed.

12 Wafajjarna alarda AAuyoonan failtaqa almao AAala amrin qad qudira

13 But We bore him on an (Ark) made of broad planks and caulked with palm - fibre:

13 Wahamalnahu AAala thati alwahin wadusurin

14 She floats under our eyes (and care): a recompense to one who had been rejected (with scorn)!

14 Tajree biaAAyunina jazaan liman kana kufira

15 And We have left this as a Sign (for all time): then is there any that will receive admonition?

15 Walaqad taraknaha ayatan fahal min muddakirin

16 But how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning?

16 Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri

17 And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

17 Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

18 The 'Ad (people) (too) rejected (Truth): then how terrible was My Penalty and My Warning?

18 Kaththabat AAadun fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri

19 For We sent against them a furious wind, on a Day of violent Disaster,

19 Inna arsalna AAalayhim reehan sarsaran fee yawmi nahsin mustamirrin

20 Plucking out men as if they were roots of palm - trees torn up (from the ground).

20 TanziAAu alnnasa kaannahum aAAjazu nakhlin munqaAAirin

21 Yea, how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning!

21 Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri

22 But We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

22 Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

23 The Thamud (also) rejected (their) Warners.

23 Kaththabat thamoodu bialnnuthuri

24 For they said: "What! a man! a Solitary one from among ourselves! shall we follow such a one? Truly should we then be straying in mind, and mad!

24 Faqaloo abasharan minna wahidan nattabiAAuhu inna ithan lafee dalalin wasuAAurin

25 "Is it that the Message is sent to him, of all people amongst us? Nay, he is a liar, an insolent one!"

25 Aolqiya alththikru AAalayhi min baynina bal huwa kaththabun ashirun

26 Ah! they will know on the morrow, which is the liar, the insolent one!

26 SayaAAlamoona ghadan mani alkaththabu alashiru

27 For We will send the she - camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience!

27 Inna mursiloo alnnaqati fitnatan lahum fairtaqibhum waistabir

28 And tell them that the water is to be divided between them: Each one's right to drink being brought forward (by suitable turns).

28 Wanabbihum anna almaa qismatun baynahum kullu shirbin muhtadarun

29 But they called to their companion, and he took a sword in hand, and hamstrung (her).

29 Fanadaw sahibahum fataAAata faAAaqara

30 Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning!

30 Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri

31 For We sent against them a single Mighty Blast, and they became like the dry stubble used by one who pens cattle.

31 Inna arsalna AAalayhim sayhatan wahidatan fakanoo kahasheemi almuhtathiri

32 And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

32 Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

33 The people of Lut rejected (his) warning.

33 Kaththabat qawmu lootin bialnnuthuri

34 We sent against them a violent Tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lut's household: them We delivered by early Dawn, -

34 Inna arsalna AAalayhim hasiban illa ala lootin najjaynahum bisaharin

35 As a Grace from Us: thus do We reward those who give thanks.

35 NiAAmatan min AAindina kathalika najzee man shakara

36 And (Lut) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning.

36 Walaqad antharahum batshatana fatamaraw bialnnuthuri

37 And they even sought to snatch away his guests from him, but We blinded their eyes. (They heard:) "Now taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

37 Walaqad rawadoohu AAan dayfihi fatamasna aAAyunahum fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri

38 Early on the morrow an abiding Punishment seized them:

38 Walaqad sabbahahum bukratan AAathabun mustaqirrun

39 "So taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

39 Fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri

40 And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

40 Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

41 To the People of Pharaoh, too, aforetime, came Warners (from Allah).

41 Walaqad jaa ala firAAawna alnnuthuru

42 The (people) rejected all Our Signs; but We seized them with such Penalty (as comes) from One Exalted in Power, able to carry out His Will.

42 Kaththaboo biayatina kulliha faakhathnahum akhtha AAazeezin muqtadirin

43 Are your Unbelievers, (O Quraish), better than they? Or have ye an immunity in the Sacred Books?

43 Akuffarukum khayrun min olaikum am lakum baraatun fee alzzuburi

44 Or do they say: "We acting together can defend ourselves"?

44 Am yaqooloona nahnu jameeAAun muntasirun

45 Soon will their multitude be put to flight, and they will show their backs.

45 Sayuhzamu aljamAAu wayuwalloona alddubura

46 Nay, the Hour (of Judgment) is the time promised them (for their full recompense): And that Hour will be most grievous and most bitter.

46 Bali alssaAAatu mawAAiduhum waalssaAAatu adha waamarru

47 Truly those in sin are the ones straying in mind, and mad.

47 Inna almujrimeena fee dalalin wasuAAurin

48 The Day they will be dragged through the Fire on their faces, (they will hear:) "Taste ye the touch of Hell!"

48 Yawma yushaboona fee alnnari AAala wujoohihim thooqoo massa saqara

49 Verily, all things have We created in proportion and measure.

49 Inna kulla shayin khalaqnahu biqadarin

50 And Our Command is but a single (Act), - like the twinkling of an eye.

50 Wama amruna illa wahidatun kalamhin bialbasari

51 And (oft) in the past, have We destroyed gangs like unto you: then is there any that will receive admonition?

51 Walaqad ahlakna ashyaAAakum fahal min muddakirin

52 All that they do is noted in (their) Books (of Deeds):

52 Wakullu shayin faAAaloohu fee alzzuburi

53 Every matter, small and great, is on record.

53 Wakullu sagheerin wakabeerin mustatarun

54 As to the Righteous, they will be in the midst of Gardens and Rivers,

54 Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatin wanaharin

55 In an Assembly of Truth, in the Presence of a Sovereign Omnipotent.

55 Fee maqAAadi sidqin AAinda maleekin muqtadirin
