1 O you who are clothed!

1 O you who covers himself [with a garment],

2 Arise and warn,

2 Arise and warn

3 And your Lord do magnify,

3 And your Lord glorify

4 And your garments do purify,

4 And your clothing purify

5 And uncleanness do shun,

5 And uncleanliness avoid

6 And bestow not favors that you may receive again with increase,

6 And do not confer favor to acquire more

7 And for the sake of your Lord, be patient.

7 But for your Lord be patient.

8 For when the trumpet is sounded,

8 And when the trumpet is blown,

9 That, at that time, shall be a difficult day,

9 That Day will be a difficult day

10 For the unbelievers, anything but easy.

10 For the disbelievers - not easy.

11 Leave Me and him whom I created alone,

11 Leave Me with the one I created alone

12 And give him vast riches,

12 And to whom I granted extensive wealth

13 And sons dwelling in his presence,

13 And children present [with him]

14 And I adjusted affairs for him adjustably;

14 And spread [everything] before him, easing [his life].

15 And yet he desires that I should add more!

15 Then he desires that I should add more.

16 By no means! surely he offers opposition to Our communications.

16 No! Indeed, he has been toward Our verses obstinate.

17 I will make a distressing punishment overtake him.

17 I will cover him with arduous torment.

18 Surely he reflected and guessed,

18 Indeed, he thought and deliberated.

19 But may he be cursed how he plotted;

19 So may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.

20 Again, may he be cursed how he plotted;

20 Then may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.

21 Then he looked,

21 Then he considered [again];

22 Then he frowned and scowled,

22 Then he frowned and scowled;

23 Then he turned back and was big with pride,

23 Then he turned back and was arrogant

24 ~Then he said: This is naught but enchantment, narrated (from others);

24 And said, "This is not but magic imitated [from others].

25 This is naught but the word of a mortal.

25 This is not but the word of a human being."

26 I will cast him into hell.

26 I will drive him into Saqar.

27 And what will make you realize what hell is?

27 And what can make you know what is Saqar?

28 It leaves naught nor does it spare aught.

28 It lets nothing remain and leaves nothing [unburned],

29 It scorches the mortal.

29 Blackening the skins.

30 Over it are nineteen.

30 Over it are nineteen [angels].

31 And We have not made the wardens of the fire others than angels, and We have not made their number but as a trial for those who disbelieve, that those who have been given the book may be certain and those who believe may increase in faith, and those who have been given the book and the believers may not doubt, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the unbelievers may say: What does Allah mean by this parable? Thus does Allah make err whom He pleases, and He guides whom He pleases, and none knows the hosts of your Lord but He Himself; and this is naught but a reminder to the mortals.

31 And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is hypocrisy and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allah intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allah leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And mention of the Fire is not but a reminder to humanity.

32 Nay; I swear by the moon,

32 No! By the moon

33 And the night when it departs,

33 And [by] the night when it departs

34 And the daybreak when it shines;

34 And [by] the morning when it brightens,

35 Surely it (hell) is one of the gravest (misfortunes),

35 Indeed, the Fire is of the greatest [afflictions]

36 A warning to mortals,

36 As a warning to humanity -

37 To him among you who wishes to go forward or remain behind.

37 To whoever wills among you to proceed or stay behind.

38 Every soul is held in pledge for what it earns,

38 Every soul, for what it has earned, will be retained

39 Except the people of the right hand,

39 Except the companions of the right,

40 In gardens, they shall ask each other

40 [Who will be] in gardens, questioning each other

41 About the guilty:

41 About the criminals,

42 What has brought you into hell?

42 [And asking them], "What put you into Saqar?"

43 They shall say: We were not of those who prayed;

43 They will say, "We were not of those who prayed,

44 And we used not to feed the poor;

44 Nor did we used to feed the poor.

45 And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who entered into vain discourses.

45 And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who engaged [in it],

46 And we used to call the day of judgment a lie;

46 And we used to deny the Day of Recompense

47 Till death overtook us.

47 Until there came to us the certainty."

48 So the intercession of intercessors shall not avail them.

48 So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.

49 What is then the matter with them, that they turn away from the admonition

49 Then what is [the matter] with them that they are, from the reminder, turning away

50 As if they were asses taking fright

50 As if they were alarmed donkeys

51 That had fled from a lion?

51 Fleeing from a lion?

52 Nay; every one of them desires that he may be given pages spread out;

52 Rather, every person among them desires that he would be given scriptures spread about.

53 Nay! but they do not fear the hereafter.

53 No! But they do not fear the Hereafter.

54 Nay! it is surely an admonition.

54 No! Indeed, the Qur'an is a reminder

55 So whoever pleases may mind it.

55 Then whoever wills will remember it.

56 And they will not mind unless Allah please. He is worthy to be feared and worthy to forgive.

56 And they will not remember except that Allah wills. He is worthy of fear and adequate for [granting] forgiveness.
