আদ্ দুখান (ধোঁয়া)

1 Ha Mim!

1 Ha - Mim.

2 I swear by the Book that makes manifest (the truth).

2 By the Book that makes things clear; -

3 Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning - -

3 We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).

4 Therein every wise affair is made distinct,

4 In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom,

5 A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of apostles),

5 By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),

6 A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing,

6 As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);

7 The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure.

7 The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all between them, if ye (but) have an assured faith.

8 There is no god but He; He gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore.

8 There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death, - The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.

9 Nay, they are in doubt, they sport.

9 Yet they play about in doubt.

10 Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke,

10 Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,

11 That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment.

11 Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.

12 Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers.

12 (They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"

13 How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Apostle making clear (the truth),

13 How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them, -

14 Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman.

14 Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"

15 Surely We will remove the punishment a little, (but) you will surely return (to evil).

15 We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).

16 On the day when We will seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely We will inflict retribution.

16 One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!

17 And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble apostle,

17 We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,

18 Saying: Deliver to me the servants of Allah, surely I am a faithful apostle to you,

18 Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;

19 And that do not exalt yourselves against Allah, surely I will bring to you a clear authority:

19 "And be not arrogant as against Allah: for I come to you with authority manifest.

20 And surely I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord that you should stone me to death:

20 "For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.

21 And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone.

21 "If ye believe me not, at least keep yourselves away from me."

22 Then he called upon his Lord: These are a guilty people.

22 (But they were aggressive:) then he cried to his Lord: "These are indeed a people given to sin."

23 So go forth with My servants by night; surely you will be pursued:

23 (The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.

24 And leave the sea intervening; surely they are a host that shall be drowned.

24 "And leave the sea as a furrow (divided): for they are a host (destined) to be drowned."

25 How many of the gardens and fountains have they left!

25 How many were the gardens and springs they left behind,

26 And cornfields and noble places!

26 And corn - fields and noble buildings,

27 And goodly things wherein they rejoiced;

27 And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!

28 Thus (it was), and We gave them as a heritage to another people.

28 Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!

29 So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they respited.

29 And neither heaven nor earth shed a tear over them: nor were they given a respite (again).

30 And certainly We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing chastisement,

30 We did deliver aforetime the Children of Israel from humiliating Punishment,

31 From Firon; surely he was haughty, (and) one of the extravagant.

31 Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he was arrogant (even) among inordinate transgressors.

32 And certainly We chose them, having knowledge, above the nations.

32 And We chose them aforetime above the nations, knowingly,

33 And We gave them of the communications wherein was clear blessing.

33 And granted them Signs in which there was a manifest trial

34 Most surely these do say:

34 As to these (Quraish), they say forsooth:

35 There is naught but our first death and we shall not be raised again.

35 "There is nothing beyond our first death, and we shall not be raised again.

36 So bring our fathers (back), if you are truthful.

36 "Then bring (back) our forefathers, if what ye say is true!"

37 Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.

37 What! Are they better than the people of Tubba and those who were before them? We destroyed them because they were guilty of sin.

38 And We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them in sport.

38 We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, merely in (idle) sport:

39 We did not create them both but with the truth, but most of them do not know.

39 We created them not except for just ends: but most of them do not understand.

40 Surely the day of separation is their appointed term, of all of them

40 Verily the Day of sorting out is the time appointed for all of them, -

41 The day on which a friend shall not avail (his) friend aught, nor shall they be helped,

41 The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,

42 Save those on whom Allah shall have mercy; surely He is the Mighty the Merciful.

42 Except such as receive Allah's Mercy: for He is Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

43 Surely the tree of the Zaqqum,

43 Verily the tree of Zaqqum

44 Is the food of the sinful

44 Will be the food of the Sinful, -

45 Like dregs of oil; it shall boil in (their) bellies,

45 Like molten brass; it will boil in their insides.

46 Like the boiling of hot water.

46 Like the boiling of scalding water.

47 Seize him, then drag him down into the middle of the hell;

47 (A voice will cry: "Seize ye him and drag him into the midst of the Blazing Fire!

48 Then pour above his head of the torment of the boiling water:

48 "Then pour over his head the Penalty of Boiling Water,

49 Taste; you forsooth are the mighty, the honorable:

49 "Taste thou (this)! Truly wast thou mighty, full of honour!

50 Surely this is what you disputed about.

50 "Truly this is what ye used to doubt!"

51 Surely those who guard (against evil) are in a secure place,

51 As to the Righteous (they will be) in a position of Security,

52 In gardens and springs;

52 Among Gardens and Springs;

53 They shall wear of fine and thick silk, (sitting) face to face;

53 Dressed in fine silk and in rich brocade, they will face each other;

54 Thus (shall it be), and We will wed them with Houris pure, beautiful ones.

54 So; and We shall join them to fair women with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes.

55 They shall call therein for every fruit in security;

55 There can they call for every kind of fruit in peace and security;

56 They shall not taste therein death except the first death, and He will save them from the punishment of the hell,

56 Nor will they there taste Death, except the first death; and He will preserve them from the Penalty of the Blazing Fire, -

57 A grace from your Lord; this is the great achievement.

57 As a Bounty from thy Lord! that will be the supreme achievement!

58 So have We made it easy in your tongue that they may be mindful.

58 Verily, We have made this (Qur'an) easy, in thy tongue, in order that they may give heed.

59 Therefore wait; surely they are waiting.

59 So wait thou and watch; for they (too) are waiting.
