আল মুদ্দাসসির (আচ্ছাদিত)

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. O thou enveloped in thy cloak,

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

2 Arise and warn!

2 Arise and warn

3 Thy Lord magnify,

3 And your Lord glorify

4 Thy raiment purify,

4 And your clothing purify

5 Pollution shun!

5 And uncleanliness avoid

6 And show not favour, seeking wordly gain!

6 And do not confer favor to acquire more

7 For the sake of thy Lord, be patient!

7 But for your Lord be patient.

8 For when the trumpet shall sound,

8 And when the trumpet is blown,

9 Surely that day will be a day of anguish,

9 That Day will be a difficult day

10 Not of ease, for disbelievers.

10 For the disbelievers - not easy.

11 Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created lonely,

11 Leave Me with the one I created alone

12 And then bestowed upon him ample means,

12 And to whom I granted extensive wealth

13 And sons abiding in his presence

13 And children present [with him]

14 And made (life) smooth for him.

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

15 Yet he desireth that I should give more.

15 Then he desires that I should add more.

16 Nay! For lo! he hath been stubborn to Our revelations.

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

17 On him I shall impose a fearful doom.

17 I will cover him with arduous torment.

18 For lo! he did consider; then he planned -

18 Indeed, he thought and deliberated.

19 (Self - )destroyed is he, how he planned!

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

20 Again (self - )destroyed is he, how he planned! -

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

21 Then looked he,

21 Then he considered [again];

22 Then frowned he and showed displeasure.

22 Then he frowned and scowled;

23 Then turned he away in pride

23 Then he turned back and was arrogant

24 And said: This is naught else than magic from of old;

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

25 This is naught else than speech of mortal man.

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

26 Him shall I fling unto the burning.

26 I will drive him into Saqar.

27 - Ah, what will convey unto thee what that burning is! -

27 And what can make you know what is Saqar?

28 It leaveth naught; it spareth naught

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

29 It shrivelleth the man.

29 Blackening the skins.

30 Above it are nineteen.

30 Over it are nineteen [angels].

31 We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling - block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude ? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto 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, by the Moon

32 No! By the moon

33 And the night when it withdraweth

33 And [by] the night when it departs

34 And the dawn when it shineth forth,

34 And [by] the morning when it brightens,

35 Lo! this is one of the greatest (portents)

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

36 As a warning unto men,

36 As a warning to humanity -

37 Unto him of you who will advance or hang back.

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

38 Every soul is a pledge for its own deeds;

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

39 Save those who will stand on the right hand.

39 Except the companions of the right,

40 In gardens they will ask one another

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

41 Concerning the guilty:

41 About the criminals,

42 What hath brought you to this burning ?

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

43 They will answer: We were not of those who prayed

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

44 Nor did we feed the wretched.

44 Nor did we used to feed the poor.

45 We used to wade (in vain dispute) with (all) waders,

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

46 And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,

46 And we used to deny the Day of Recompense

47 Till the Inevitable came unto us.

47 Until there came to us the certainty."

48 The mediation of no mediators will avail them then.

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

49 Why now turn they away from the Admonishment,

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

50 As they were frightened asses

50 As if they were alarmed donkeys

51 Fleeing from a lion ?

51 Fleeing from a lion?

52 Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).

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

53 Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter.

53 No! But they do not fear the Hereafter.

54 Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment.

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

55 So whosoever will may heed.

55 Then whoever wills will remember it.

56 And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.

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