আন্ নাজআ’ত (মুক্তি)

1 By the (angels) who tear out (the souls of the wicked) with violence;

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

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

2 By those who gently draw out (the souls of the blessed);

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

2 By the meteors rushing,

3 And by those who glide along (on errands of mercy),

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

3 By the lone stars floating,

4 Then press forward as in a race,

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

4 By the angels hastening,

5 Then arrange to do (the Commands of their Lord),

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

5 And those who govern the event,

6 One Day everything that can be in commotion will be in violent commotion,

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

6 On the day when the first trump resoundeth.

7 Followed by oft - repeated (commotions):

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

7 And the second followeth it,

8 Hearts that Day will be in agitation;

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

8 On that day hearts beat painfully

9 Cast down will be (their owners') eyes.

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

9 While eyes are downcast

10 They say (now): "What! shall we indeed be returned to (our) former state?

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

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

11 "What! - when we shall have become rotten bones?"

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

11 Even after we are crumbled bones ?

12 They say: "It would, in that case, be a return with loss!"

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

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

13 But verily, it will be but a single (Compelling) Cry,

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

13 Surely it will need but one shout,

14 When, behold, they will be in the (full) awakening (to Judgment).

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

14 And lo! they will be awakened.

15 Has the story of Moses reached thee?

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

15 Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses ?

16 Behold, thy Lord did call to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa: -

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

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

17 "Go thou to Pharaoh for he has indeed transgressed all bounds:

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

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

18 "And say to him, 'Wouldst thou that thou shouldst be purified (from sin)? -

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

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

19 "'And that I guide thee to thy Lord, so thou shouldst fear Him?'"

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

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

20 Then did (Moses) show him the Great Sign.

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

20 And he showed him the tremendous token.

21 But (Pharaoh) rejected it and disobeyed (guidance);

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

21 But he denied and disobeyed,

22 Further, he turned his back, striving hard (against Allah).

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

22 Then turned he away in haste,

23 Then he collected (his men) and made a proclamation,

23 Fahashara fanada

23 Then gathered he and summoned

24 Saying, "I am your Lord, Most High".

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

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

25 But Allah did punish him, (and made an) example of him, - in the Hereafter, as in this life.

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

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

26 Verily in this is an instructive warning for whosoever feareth (Allah).

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

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

27 What! Are ye the more difficult to create or the heaven (above)? (Allah) hath constructed it:

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

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

28 On high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

28 He raised the height thereof and ordered it;

29 Its night doth He endow with darkness, and its splendour doth He bring out (with light).

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

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

30 And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse);

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

30 And after that He spread the earth,

31 He draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture;

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

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

32 And the mountains hath He firmly fixed; -

32 Waaljibala arsaha

32 And He made fast the hills,

33 For use and convenience to you and your cattle.

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 A provision for you and for your cattle.

34 Therefore, when there comes the great, overwhelming (Event), -

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

34 But when the great disaster cometh,

35 The Day when man shall remember (all) that he strove for,

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

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

36 And Hell - Fire shall be placed in full view for (all) to see, -

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

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

37 Then, for such as had transgressed all bounds,

37 Faamma man tagha

37 Then, as for him who rebelled

38 And had preferred the life of this world,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

38 And chose the life of the world,

39 The Abode will be Hell - Fire;

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

39 Lo! hell will be his home.

40 And for such as had entertained the fear of standing before their Lord's (tribunal) and had restrained (their) soul from lower desires,

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,

41 Their abode will be the Garden.

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

41 Lo! the Garden will be his home.

42 They ask thee about the Hour, - 'When will be its appointed time?

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

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

43 Wherein art thou (concerned) with the declaration thereof?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

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

44 With thy Lord in the Limit fixed therefor.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

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

45 Thou art but a Warner for such as fear it.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

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

46 The Day they see it, (It will be) as if they had tarried but a single evening, or (at most till) the following morn!

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.
