1 A questioner asked about a Penalty to befall -

1 Saala sailun biAAathabin waqiAAin

2 The Unbelievers, the which there is none to ward off, -

2 Lilkafireena laysa lahu dafiAAun

3 (A Penalty) from Allah, Lord of the Ways of Ascent.

3 Mina Allahi thee almaAAariji

4 The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years:

4 TaAAruju almalaikatu waalrroohu ilayhi fee yawmin kana miqdaruhu khamseena alfa sanatin

5 Therefore do thou hold Patience, - a Patience of beautiful (contentment).

5 Faisbir sabran jameelan

6 They see the (Day) indeed as a far - off (event):

6 Innahum yarawnahu baAAeedan

7 But We see it (quite) near.

7 Wanarahu qareeban

8 The Day that the sky will be like molten brass,

8 Yawma takoonu alssamao kaalmuhli

9 And the mountains will be like wool,

9 Watakoonu aljibalu kaalAAihni

10 And no friend will ask after a friend,

10 Wala yasalu hameemun hameeman

11 Though they will be put in sight of each other, - the sinner's desire will be: Would that he could redeem himself from the Penalty of that Day by (sacrificing) his children,

11 Yubassaroonahum yawaddu almujrimu law yaftadee min AAathabi yawmiithin bibaneehi

12 His wife and his brother,

12 Wasahibatihi waakheehi

13 His kindred who sheltered him,

13 Wafaseelatihi allatee tuweehi

14 And all, all that is on earth, - so it could deliver him:

14 Waman fee alardi jameeAAan thumma yunjeehi

15 By no means! for it would be the Fire of Hell! -

15 Kalla innaha latha

16 Plucking out (his being) right to the skull! -

16 NazzaAAatan lilshshawa

17 Inviting (all) such as turn their backs and turn away their faces (from the Right).

17 TadAAoo man adbara watawalla

18 And collect (wealth) and hide it (from use)!

18 WajamaAAa faawAAa

19 Truly man was created very impatient; -

19 Inna alinsana khuliqa halooAAan

20 Fretful when evil touches him;

20 Itha massahu alshsharru jazooAAan

21 And niggardly when good reaches him; -

21 Waitha massahu alkhayru manooAAan

22 Not so those devoted to Prayer; -

22 Illa almusalleena

23 Those who remain steadfast to their prayer;

23 Allatheena hum AAala salatihim daimoona

24 And those in whose wealth is a recognised right.

24 Waallatheena fee amwalihim haqqun maAAloomun

25 For the (needy) who asks and him who is prevented (for some reason from asking);

25 Lilssaili waalmahroomi

26 And those who hold to the truth of the Day of Judgment;

26 Waallatheena yusaddiqoona biyawmi alddeeni

27 And those who fear the displeasure of their Lord, -

27 Waallatheena hum min AAathabi rabbihim mushfiqoona

28 For their Lord's displeasure is the opposite of Peace and Tranquillity; -

28 Inna AAathaba rabbihim ghayru mamoonin

29 And those who guard their chastity,

29 Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona

30 Except with their wives and the (captives) whom their right hands possess, - for (then) they are not to be blamed,

30 Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena

31 But those who trespass beyond this are transgressors; -

31 Famani ibtagha waraa thalika faolaika humu alAAadoona

32 And those who respect their trusts and covenants;

32 Waallatheena hum liamanatihim waAAahdihim raAAoona

33 And those who stand firm in their testimonies;

33 Waallatheena hum bishahadatihim qaimoona

34 And those who guard (the sacredness) of their worship; -

34 Waallatheena hum AAala salatihim yuhafithoona

35 Such will be the honoured ones in the Gardens (of Bliss).

35 Olaika fee jannatin mukramoona

36 Now what is the matter with the Unbelievers that they rush madly before thee -

36 Famali allatheena kafaroo qibalaka muhtiAAeena

37 From the right and from the left, in crowds?

37 AAani alyameeni waAAani alshshimali AAizeena

38 Does every man of them long to enter the Garden of Bliss?

38 AyatmaAAu kullu imriin minhum an yudkhala jannata naAAeemin

39 By no means! For We have created them out of the (base matter) they know!

39 Kalla inna khalaqnahum mimma yaAAlamoona

40 Now I do call to witness the Lord of all points in the East and the West that We can certainly -

40 Fala oqsimu birabbi almashariqi waalmagharibi inna laqadiroona

41 Substitute for them better (men) than they; And We are not to be defeated (in Our Plan).

41 AAala an nubaddila khayran minhum wama nahnu bimasbooqeena

42 So leave them to plunge in vain talk and play about, until they encounter that Day of theirs which they have been promised! -

42 Fatharhum yakhoodoo wayalAAaboo hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee yooAAadoona

43 The Day whereon they will issue from their sepulchres in sudden haste as if they were rushing to a goal - post (fixed for them), -

43 Yawma yakhrujoona mina alajdathi siraAAan kaannahum ila nusubin yoofidoona

44 Their eyes lowered in dejection, - ignominy covering them (all over)! such is the Day the which they are promised!

44 KhashiAAatan absaruhum tarhaquhum thillatun thalika alyawmu allathee kanoo yooAAadoona
