আল নাজআ’ত

1 By the (angels) who tear out (the souls of the wicked) with violence;

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

2 By those who gently draw out (the souls of the blessed);

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

3 And by those who glide along (on errands of mercy),

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

4 Then press forward as in a race,

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

5 Then arrange to do (the Commands of their Lord),

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

6 One Day everything that can be in commotion will be in violent commotion,

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

7 Followed by oft - repeated (commotions):

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

8 Hearts that Day will be in agitation;

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

9 Cast down will be (their owners') eyes.

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

10 They say (now): "What! shall we indeed be returned to (our) former state?

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

11 "What! - when we shall have become rotten bones?"

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

12 They say: "It would, in that case, be a return with loss!"

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

13 But verily, it will be but a single (Compelling) Cry,

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

14 When, behold, they will be in the (full) awakening (to Judgment).

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

15 Has the story of Moses reached thee?

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

16 Behold, thy Lord did call to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa: -

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

17 "Go thou to Pharaoh for he has indeed transgressed all bounds:

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

18 "And say to him, 'Wouldst thou that thou shouldst be purified (from sin)? -

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

19 "'And that I guide thee to thy Lord, so thou shouldst fear Him?'"

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

20 Then did (Moses) show him the Great Sign.

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

21 But (Pharaoh) rejected it and disobeyed (guidance);

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

22 Further, he turned his back, striving hard (against Allah).

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

23 Then he collected (his men) and made a proclamation,

23 Fahashara fanada

24 Saying, "I am your Lord, Most High".

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

25 But Allah did punish him, (and made an) example of him, - in the Hereafter, as in this life.

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

26 Verily in this is an instructive warning for whosoever feareth (Allah).

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

27 What! Are ye the more difficult to create or the heaven (above)? (Allah) hath constructed it:

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

28 On high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

29 Its night doth He endow with darkness, and its splendour doth He bring out (with light).

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

30 And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse);

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

31 He draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture;

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

32 And the mountains hath He firmly fixed; -

32 Waaljibala arsaha

33 For use and convenience to you and your cattle.

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

34 Therefore, when there comes the great, overwhelming (Event), -

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

35 The Day when man shall remember (all) that he strove for,

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

36 And Hell - Fire shall be placed in full view for (all) to see, -

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

37 Then, for such as had transgressed all bounds,

37 Faamma man tagha

38 And had preferred the life of this world,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

39 The Abode will be Hell - Fire;

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

40 And for such as had entertained the fear of standing before their Lord's (tribunal) and had restrained (their) soul from lower desires,

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

41 Their abode will be the Garden.

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

42 They ask thee about the Hour, - 'When will be its appointed time?

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

43 Wherein art thou (concerned) with the declaration thereof?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

44 With thy Lord in the Limit fixed therefor.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

45 Thou art but a Warner for such as fear it.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

46 The Day they see it, (It will be) as if they had tarried but a single evening, or (at most till) the following morn!

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha
