আল মারিজ

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. A questioner asked concerning a torment about to befall

1 Saala sailun biAAathabin waqiAAin

2 Upon the disbelievers, which none can avert,

2 Lilkafireena laysa lahu dafiAAun

3 From Allah, the Lord of the ways of ascent.

3 Mina Allahi thee almaAAariji

4 The angels and the Ruh [Jibril (Gabriel)] ascend to Him in a Day the measure whereof is fifty thousand years.

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

5 So be patient (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), with a good patience.

5 Faisbir sabran jameelan

6 Verily, they see it (the torment) afar off.

6 Innahum yarawnahu baAAeedan

7 But We see it (quite) near.

7 Wanarahu qareeban

8 The Day that the sky will be like the boiling filth of oil, (or molten copper or silver or lead).

8 Yawma takoonu alssamao kaalmuhli

9 And the mountains will be like flakes of wool.

9 Watakoonu aljibalu kaalAAihni

10 And no friend will ask a friend (about his condition),

10 Wala yasalu hameemun hameeman

11 Though they shall be made to see one another [(i.e. on the Day of Resurrection), there will be none but see his father, children and relatives, but he will neither speak to them nor will ask them for any help]. The Mujrim, (criminal, sinner, disbeliever) would desire to ransom himself from the punishment of that Day by his children,

11 Yubassaroonahum yawaddu almujrimu law yaftadee min AAathabi yawmiithin bibaneehi

12 And his wife and his brother,

12 Wasahibatihi waakheehi

13 And his kindred who sheltered him,

13 Wafaseelatihi allatee tuweehi

14 And all that are in the earth, so that it might save him.

14 Waman fee alardi jameeAAan thumma yunjeehi

15 By no means! Verily, it will be the Fire of Hell,

15 Kalla innaha latha

16 Taking away (burning completely) the head skin!

16 NazzaAAatan lilshshawa

17 Calling (all) such as turn their backs and turn away their faces (from Faith) [picking and swallowing them up from that great gathering of mankind on the Day of Resurrection just as a bird picks up a food-grain from the earth with its beak and swallows it up] (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi)

17 TadAAoo man adbara watawalla

18 And collect (wealth) and hide it (from spending it in the Cause of Allah).

18 WajamaAAa faawAAa

19 Verily, man (disbeliever) was created very impatient;

19 Inna alinsana khuliqa halooAAan

20 Irritable (discontented) when evil touches him;

20 Itha massahu alshsharru jazooAAan

21 And niggardly when good touches him.

21 Waitha massahu alkhayru manooAAan

22 Except those who are devoted to Salat (prayers).

22 Illa almusalleena

23 Those who remain constant in their Salat (prayers);

23 Allatheena hum AAala salatihim daimoona

24 And those in whose wealth there is a recognised right

24 Waallatheena fee amwalihim haqqun maAAloomun

25 For the beggar who asks, and for the unlucky who has lost his property and wealth, (and his means of living has been straitened).

25 Lilssaili waalmahroomi

26 And those who believe in the Day of Recompense.

26 Waallatheena yusaddiqoona biyawmi alddeeni

27 And those who fear the torment of their Lord.

27 Waallatheena hum min AAathabi rabbihim mushfiqoona

28 Verily, the torment of their Lord is that before which none can feel secure. -

28 Inna AAathaba rabbihim ghayru mamoonin

29 And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts from illegal sexual acts).

29 Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona

30 Except from their wives or the (women slaves) whom their right hands possess - for (then) they are not blameworthy.

30 Illa AAala azwajihim aw ma malakat aymanuhum fainnahum ghayru maloomeena

31 But whosoever seeks beyond that, then it is those who are trespassers.

31 Famani ibtagha waraa thalika faolaika humu alAAadoona

32 And those who keep 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 their Salat (prayers) well.

34 Waallatheena hum AAala salatihim yuhafithoona

35 Such shall dwell in the Gardens (i.e. Paradise), honoured.

35 Olaika fee jannatin mukramoona

36 So what is the matter with those who disbelieve that they hasten to listen from you [O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), in order to belie you and to mock at you, and at Allah's Book (this Qur'an)].

36 Famali allatheena kafaroo qibalaka muhtiAAeena

37 (Sitting) in groups on the right and on the left (of you, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)?

37 AAani alyameeni waAAani alshshimali AAizeena

38 Does every man of them hope to enter the Paradise of Delight?

38 AyatmaAAu kullu imriin minhum an yudkhala jannata naAAeemin

39 No, that is not like that! Verily, We have created them out of that which they know!

39 Kalla inna khalaqnahum mimma yaAAlamoona

40 So I swear by the Lord of all the [three hundred and sixty-five (365)] points of sunrise and sunset in the east and the west that surely We are Able

40 Fala oqsimu birabbi almashariqi waalmagharibi inna laqadiroona

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

42 So leave them to plunge in vain talk and play about, until they meet their Day which they are promised -

42 Fatharhum yakhoodoo wayalAAaboo hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee yooAAadoona

43 The Day when they will come out of the graves quickly as racing to a goal,

43 Yawma yakhrujoona mina alajdathi siraAAan kaannahum ila nusubin yoofidoona

44 With their eyes lowered in fear and humility, ignominy covering them (all over)! That is the Day which they were promised!

44 KhashiAAatan absaruhum tarhaquhum thillatun thalika alyawmu allathee kanoo yooAAadoona
