وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْبُرُوجِ
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ
By the sky containing great stars
وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْمَوْعُودِ
وَالْيَوْمِ الْمَوْعُودِ
And [by] the promised Day
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ
And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,
قُتِلَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْأُخْدُودِ
قُتِلَ أَصْحَابُ الْأُخْدُودِ
Cursed were the companions of the trench
ٱلنَّارِ ذَاتِ ٱلْوَقُودِ
النَّارِ ذَاتِ الْوَقُودِ
[Containing] the fire full of fuel,
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ
When they were sitting near it
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.
وَمَا نَقَمُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ
وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ
And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,
ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ
الَّذِي لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ
To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا۟ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا۟ فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ ٱلْحَرِيقِ
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ الْحَرِيقِ
Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْكَبِيرُ
Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ
Indeed, the vengeance of your Lord is severe.
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ
إِنَّهُ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ
Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats.
وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلْوَدُودُ
وَهُوَ الْغَفُورُ الْوَدُودُ
And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate,
ذُو ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْمَجِيدُ
ذُو الْعَرْشِ الْمَجِيدُ
Honorable Owner of the Throne,
فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ
فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ
Effecter of what He intends.
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْجُنُودِ
هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْجُنُودِ
Has there reached you the story of the soldiers -
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ
[Those of] Pharaoh and Thamud?
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِى تَكْذِيبٍ
بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِي تَكْذِيبٍ
But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,
وَٱللَّهُ مِن وَرَآئِهِم مُّحِيطٌۢ
وَاللَّهُ مِن وَرَائِهِم مُّحِيطٌ
While Allah encompasses them from behind.
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْءَانٌ مَّجِيدٌ
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَّجِيدٌ
But this is an honored Qur'an
فِى لَوْحٍ مَّحْفُوظٍۭ
فِي لَوْحٍ مَّحْفُوظٍ
