আন্ নাজআ’ত (মুক্তি)

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By those who drag forth to destruction,

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

2 By the meteors rushing,

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

3 By the lone stars floating,

3 And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

4 By the angels hastening,

4 And those who race each other in a race

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

5 And those who govern the event,

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

6 On the day when the first trump resoundeth.

6 On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

7 And the second followeth it,

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

8 On that day hearts beat painfully

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

9 While eyes are downcast

9 Their eyes humbled.

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

10 (Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

10 They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

11 Even after we are crumbled bones ?

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

12 They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding.

12 They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

13 Surely it will need but one shout,

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

14 And lo! they will be awakened.

14 And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

15 Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses ?

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

16 How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa,

16 When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

17 (Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled -

17 "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

18 And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace) ?

18 And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

19 Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him).

19 And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

20 And he showed him the tremendous token.

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

21 But he denied and disobeyed,

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

22 Then turned he away in haste,

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

23 Fahashara fanada

23 Then gathered he and summoned

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

24 And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest."

24 And said, "I am your most exalted lord."

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

25 So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former.

25 So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

26 Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth.

26 Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

27 Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built ?

27 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

28 He raised the height thereof and ordered it;

28 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

29 And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof.

29 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

30 And after that He spread the earth,

30 And after that He spread the earth.

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

31 And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof,

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

32 Waaljibala arsaha

32 And He made fast the hills,

32 And the mountains He set firmly

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

34 But when the great disaster cometh,

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

35 The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour,

35 The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

36 And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth,

36 And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

37 Faamma man tagha

37 Then, as for him who rebelled

37 So as for he who transgressed

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

38 And chose the life of the world,

38 And preferred the life of the world,

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

39 Lo! hell will be his home.

39 Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

40 But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust,

40 But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

41 Lo! the Garden will be his home.

41 Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

42 They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port ?

42 They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

43 Why (ask they) ? What hast thou to tell thereof ?

43 In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

44 Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof.

44 To your Lord is its finality.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

45 Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it.

45 You are only a warner for those who fear it.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

46 On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof.

46 It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.
