আন নাযিআত (যারা টেনে বের করে)

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By those who drag forth to destruction,

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

2 By the meteors rushing,

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

3 By the lone stars floating,

4 And those who race each other in a race

4 By the angels hastening,

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

5 And those who govern the event,

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

6 On the day when the first trump resoundeth.

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

7 And the second followeth it,

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

8 On that day hearts beat painfully

9 Their eyes humbled.

9 While eyes are downcast

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

10 (Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

11 Even after we are crumbled bones ?

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

12 They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding.

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

13 Surely it will need but one shout,

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

14 And lo! they will be awakened.

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

15 Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses ?

16 When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

16 How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa,

17 "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

17 (Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled -

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

18 And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace) ?

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

19 Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him).

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

20 And he showed him the tremendous token.

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

21 But he denied and disobeyed,

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

22 Then turned he away in haste,

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

23 Then gathered he and summoned

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

24 And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest."

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

25 So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former.

26 Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

26 Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth.

27 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

27 Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built ?

28 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

28 He raised the height thereof and ordered it;

29 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

29 And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof.

30 And after that He spread the earth.

30 And after that He spread the earth,

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

31 And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof,

32 And the mountains He set firmly

32 And He made fast the hills,

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

34 But when the great disaster cometh,

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

35 The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour,

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

36 And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth,

37 So as for he who transgressed

37 Then, as for him who rebelled

38 And preferred the life of the world,

38 And chose the life of the world,

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

39 Lo! hell will be his home.

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

40 But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust,

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

41 Lo! the Garden will be his home.

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

42 They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port ?

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

43 Why (ask they) ? What hast thou to tell thereof ?

44 To your Lord is its finality.

44 Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof.

45 You are only a warner for those who fear it.

45 Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it.

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 On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof.
