আন নাযিআত (যারা টেনে বের করে)

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

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

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

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

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

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

4 Then press forward as in a race,

4 And those who race each other in a race

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

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

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],

7 Followed by oft - repeated (commotions):

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

8 Hearts that Day will be in agitation;

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

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

9 Their eyes humbled.

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]?

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

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

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

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

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

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

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

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

15 Has the story of Moses reached thee?

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

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,

17 "Go thou to Pharaoh for he has indeed transgressed all bounds:

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

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

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]?'"

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

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

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

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

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

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

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

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

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

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

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].

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

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

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.

28 On high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection.

28 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

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.

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

30 And after that He spread the earth.

31 He draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture;

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

32 And the mountains hath He firmly fixed; -

32 And the mountains He set firmly

33 For use and convenience to you and your cattle.

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

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

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

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

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

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 -

37 Then, for such as had transgressed all bounds,

37 So as for he who transgressed

38 And had preferred the life of this world,

38 And preferred the life of the world,

39 The Abode will be Hell - Fire;

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

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,

41 Their abode will be the Garden.

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

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?

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

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

44 With thy Lord in the Limit fixed therefor.

44 To your Lord is its finality.

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

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

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.
