الـقـيامـة

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I swear by the Day of Resurrection.

1 La oqsimu biyawmi alqiyamati

2 And I swear by the self-reproaching person (a believer).

2 Wala oqsimu bialnnafsi allawwamati

3 Does man (a disbeliever) think that We shall not assemble his bones?

3 Ayahsabu alinsanu allan najmaAAa AAithamahu

4 Yes, We are Able to put together in perfect order the tips of his fingers.

4 Bala qadireena AAala an nusawwiya bananahu

5 Nay! Man (denies Resurrection and Reckoning. So he) desires to continue committing sins.

5 Bal yureedu alinsanu liyafjura amamahu

6 He asks: "When will be this Day of Resurrection?"

6 Yasalu ayyana yawmu alqiyamati

7 So, when the sight shall be dazed.

7 Faitha bariqa albasaru

8 And the moon will be eclipsed.

8 Wakhasafa alqamaru

9 And the sun and moon will be joined together (by going one into the other or folded up or deprived of their light).

9 WajumiAAa alshshamsu waalqamaru

10 On that Day man will say: "Where (is the refuge) to flee?"

10 Yaqoolu alinsanu yawmaithin ayna almafarru

11 No! There is no refuge!

11 Kalla la wazara

12 Unto your Lord (Alone) will be the place of rest that Day.

12 Ila rabbika yawmaithin almustaqarru

13 On that Day man will be informed of what he sent forward (of his evil good deeds), and what he left behind (of his good or evil traditions).

13 Yunabbao alinsanu yawmaithin bima qaddama waakhkhara

14 Nay! Man will be a witness against himself [as his body parts (skin, hands, legs, etc.) will speak about his deeds],

14 Bali alinsanu AAala nafsihi baseeratun

15 Though he may put forth his excuses (to cover his evil deeds).

15 Walaw alqa maAAatheerahu

16 Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'an, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) to make haste therewith.

16 La tuharrik bihi lisanaka litaAAjala bihi

17 It is for Us to collect it and to give you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) the ability to recite it (the Qur'an).

17 Inna AAalayna jamAAahu waquranahu

18 And when We have recited it to you [O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم through Jibril (Gabriel)], then follow its (the Qur'an's) recital.

18 Faitha qaranahu faittabiAA quranahu

19 Then it is for Us (Allah) to make it clear (to you).

19 Thumma inna AAalayna bayanahu

20 Not [as you think, that you (mankind) will not be resurrected and recompensed for your deeds], but you (men) love the present life of this world,

20 Kalla bal tuhibboona alAAajilata

21 And neglect the Hereafter.

21 Watatharoona alakhirata

22 Some faces that Day shall be Nadirah (shining and radiant).

22 Wujoohun yawmaithin nadiratun

23 Looking at their Lord (Allah).

23 Ila rabbiha nathiratun

24 And some faces, that Day, will be Basirah (dark, gloomy, frowning, and sad),

24 Wawujoohun yawmaithin basiratun

25 Thinking that some calamity is about to fall on them.

25 Tathunnu an yufAAala biha faqiratun

26 Nay, when (the soul) reaches to the collar bone (i.e. up to the throat in its exit),

26 Kalla itha balaghati alttaraqiya

27 And it will be said: "Who can cure him (and save him from death)?"

27 Waqeela man raqin

28 And he (the dying person) will conclude that it was (the time) of parting (death);

28 Wathanna annahu alfiraqu

29 And one leg will be joined with another leg (shrouded).

29 Wailtaffati alssaqu bialssaqi

30 The drive will be, on that Day, to your Lord (Allah)!

30 Ila rabbika yawmaithin almasaqu

31 So he (the disbeliever) neither believed (in this Qur'an and in the Message of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) nor prayed!

31 Fala saddaqa wala salla

32 But on the contrary, he belied (this Qur'an and the Message of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) and turned away!

32 Walakin kaththaba watawalla

33 Then he walked in conceit (full pride) to his family admiring himself!

33 Thumma thahaba ila ahlihi yatamatta

34 Woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

34 Awla laka faawla

35 Again, woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

35 Thumma awla laka faawla

36 Does man think that he will be left neglected (without being punished or rewarded for the obligatory duties enjoined by his Lord Allah on him)?

36 Ayahsabu alinsanu an yutraka sudan

37 Was he not a Nutfah (mixed male and female sexual discharge) of semen emitted (poured forth)?

37 Alam yaku nutfatan min manayyin yumna

38 Then he became an 'Alaqah (a clot); then (Allah) shaped and fashioned (him) in due proportion.

38 Thumma kana AAalaqatan fakhalaqa fasawwa

39 And made of him two sexes, male and female.

39 FajaAAala minhu alzzawjayni alththakara waalontha

40 Is not He (Allah Who does that) Able to give life to the dead? (Yes! He is Able to do all things).

40 Alaysa thalika biqadirin AAala an yuhyiya almawta
