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

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

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

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

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

3 And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

4 Then press forward as in a race,

4 And those who race each other in a race

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

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

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

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

6 On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

7 Followed by oft - repeated (commotions):

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

8 Hearts that Day will be in agitation;

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

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

9 Their eyes humbled.

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

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

10 They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

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

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

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

12 They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

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

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

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

14 And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

15 Has the story of Moses reached thee?

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

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

16 When his Lord called 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 "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

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

18 And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

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

19 And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

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

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

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

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

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

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

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

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

23 Fahashara fanada

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

24 And said, "I am your most exalted lord."

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 So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

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

26 Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [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 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah 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 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

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

29 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

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

30 And after that He spread the earth.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

31 He draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture;

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

32 And the mountains hath He firmly fixed; -

32 And the mountains He set firmly

32 Waaljibala arsaha

33 For use and convenience to you and your cattle.

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

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

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

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

35 The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

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

36 And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

37 Then, for such as had transgressed all bounds,

37 So as for he who transgressed

37 Faamma man tagha

38 And had preferred the life of this world,

38 And preferred the life of the world,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

39 The Abode will be Hell - Fire;

39 Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

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 But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

41 Their abode will be the Garden.

41 Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

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

42 They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

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

43 In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

44 With thy Lord in the Limit fixed therefor.

44 To your Lord is its finality.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

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

45 You are only a warner for those who 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 It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha
