2 On that day (many) faces will be downcast,

2 Wujoohun yawmaithin khashiAAatun

3 Working [hard] and exhausted.

3 Toiling, weary,

3 AAamilatun nasibatun

4 They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.

4 Scorched by burning fire,

4 Tasla naran hamiyatan

5 They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

5 Drinking from a boiling spring,

5 Tusqa min AAaynin aniyatin

6 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant

6 No food for them save bitter thorn - fruit

6 Laysa lahum taAAamun illa min dareeAAin

7 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

7 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.

7 La yusminu wala yughnee min jooAAin

8 [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.

8 In that day other faces will be calm,

8 Wujoohun yawmaithin naAAimatun

9 With their effort [they are] satisfied

9 Glad for their effort past,

9 LisaAAyiha radiyatun

10 In an elevated garden,

10 In a high Garden

10 Fee jannatin AAaliyatin

11 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

11 Where they hear no idle speech,

11 La tasmaAAu feeha laghiyatan

12 Within it is a flowing spring.

12 Wherein is a gushing spring,

12 Feeha AAaynun jariyatun

13 Within it are couches raised high

13 Wherein are couches raised

13 Feeha sururun marfooAAatun

14 And cups put in place

14 And goblets set at hand

14 Waakwabun mawdooAAatun

15 And cushions lined up

15 And cushions ranged

15 Wanamariqu masfoofatun

16 And carpets spread around.

16 And silken carpets spread.

16 Wazarabiyyu mabthoothatun

17 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?

17 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created ?

17 Afala yanthuroona ila alibili kayfa khuliqat

18 And at the sky - how it is raised?

18 And the heaven, how it is raised ?

18 Waila alssamai kayfa rufiAAat

19 And at the mountains - how they are erected?

19 And the hills, how they are set up ?

19 Waila aljibali kayfa nusibat

20 And at the earth - how it is spread out?

20 And the earth, how it is spread ?

20 Waila alardi kayfa sutihat

21 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.

21 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,

21 Fathakkir innama anta muthakkirun

22 You are not over them a controller.

22 Thou art not at all a warder over them.

22 Lasta AAalayhim bimusaytirin

23 However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

23 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth,

23 Illa man tawalla wakafara

24 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

24 Allah will punish him with direst punishment.

24 FayuAAaththibuhu Allahu alAAathaba alakbara

25 Indeed, to Us is their return.

25 Lo! unto Us is their return

25 Inna ilayna iyabahum

26 Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

26 And Ours their reckoning.

26 Thumma inna AAalayna hisabahum
