3 From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways

3 Mina Allahi thee almaAAariji

3 [It is] from Allah, owner of the ways of ascent.

4 (Whereby) the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years.

10 And no familiar friend will ask a question of his friend

10 Wala yasalu hameemun hameeman

10 And no friend will ask [anything of] a friend,

11 Yubassaroonahum yawaddu almujrimu law yaftadee min AAathabi yawmiithin bibaneehi

15 No! Indeed, it is the Flame [of Hell],

16 Eager to roast;

16 NazzaAAatan lilshshawa

16 A remover of exteriors.

17 It calleth him who turned and fled (from truth),

17 TadAAoo man adbara watawalla

18 And hoarded (wealth) and withheld it.

19 Lo! man was created anxious,

19 Inna alinsana khuliqa halooAAan

19 Indeed, mankind was created anxious:

20 Fretful when evil befalleth him

21 And, when good befalleth him, grudging;

21 Waitha massahu alkhayru manooAAan

22 Except the observers of prayer -

23 Who are constant at their worship

23 Allatheena hum AAala salatihim daimoona

23 Those who are constant in their prayer

24 And in whose wealth there is a right acknowledged

24 And those within whose wealth is a known right

25 For the beggar and the destitute;

26 And those who believe in the Day of Judgment,

26 Waallatheena yusaddiqoona biyawmi alddeeni

26 And those who believe in the Day of Recompense

27 And those who are fearful of their Lord's doom -

27 Waallatheena hum min AAathabi rabbihim mushfiqoona

28 Lo! the doom of their Lord is that before which none can feel secure -

28 Inna AAathaba rabbihim ghayru mamoonin

29 And those who preserve their chastity

29 Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona

29 And those who guard their private parts

30 Save with their wives and those whom their right hands possess, for thus they are not blameworthy;

30 Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena

30 Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not to be blamed -

31 But whoso seeketh more than that, those are they who are transgressors;

31 Famani ibtagha waraa thalika faolaika humu alAAadoona

32 And those who keep their pledges and their covenant,

32 Waallatheena hum liamanatihim waAAahdihim raAAoona

32 And those who are to their trusts and promises attentive

33 And those who stand by their testimony

33 Waallatheena hum bishahadatihim qaimoona

35 Olaika fee jannatin mukramoona

35 They will be in gardens, honored.

36 What aileth those who disbelieve, that they keep staring toward thee (O Muhammad), open - eyed,

36 Famali allatheena kafaroo qibalaka muhtiAAeena

36 So what is [the matter] with those who disbelieve, hastening [from] before you, [O Muhammad],

37 On the right and on the left, in groups ?

37 AAani alyameeni waAAani alshshimali AAizeena

37 [To sit] on [your] right and [your] left in separate groups?

38 Doth every man among them hope to enter the Garden of Delight ?

38 AyatmaAAu kullu imriin minhum an yudkhala jannata naAAeemin

38 Does every person among them aspire to enter a garden of pleasure?

39 Nay, verily. Lo! We created them from what they know.

39 Kalla inna khalaqnahum mimma yaAAlamoona

39 No! Indeed, We have created them from that which they know.

40 But nay! I swear by the Lord of the rising - places and the setting - places of the planets that We verily are Able

40 Fala oqsimu birabbi almashariqi waalmagharibi inna laqadiroona

40 So I swear by the Lord of [all] risings and settings that indeed We are able

41 To replace them by (others) better than them. And we are not to be outrun.

41 AAala an nubaddila khayran minhum wama nahnu bimasbooqeena

41 To replace them with better than them; and We are not to be outdone.

42 So let them chat and play until they meet their Day which they are promised,

42 Fatharhum yakhoodoo wayalAAaboo hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee yooAAadoona

42 So leave them to converse vainly and amuse themselves until they meet their Day which they are promised -

43 The day when they come forth from the graves in haste, as racing to a goal,

43 Yawma yakhrujoona mina alajdathi siraAAan kaannahum ila nusubin yoofidoona

43 The Day they will emerge from the graves rapidly as if they were, toward an erected idol, hastening.

44 With eyes aghast, abasement stupefying them: Such is the Day which they are promised.

44 KhashiAAatan absaruhum tarhaquhum thillatun thalika alyawmu allathee kanoo yooAAadoona

44 Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. That is the Day which they had been promised.
