Chapter 85, 22 verses
By the sky containing great stars
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والسماء ذات البروج
Waalssamai thati alburooji
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْبُرُوجِ
And [by] the promised Day
واليوم الموعود
Waalyawmi almawAAoodi
وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْمَوْعُودِ
And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,
وشاهد ومشهود
Washahidin wamashhoodin
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ
Cursed were the companions of the trench
قتل أصحاب الأخدود
Qutila ashabu alukhdoodi
قُتِلَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْأُخْدُودِ
[Containing] the fire full of fuel,
النار ذات الوقود
Alnnari thati alwaqoodi
ٱلنَّارِ ذَاتِ ٱلْوَقُودِ
When they were sitting near it
إذ هم عليها قعود
Ith hum AAalayha quAAoodun
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ
And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.
وهم على ما يفعلون بالمؤمنين شهود
Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bialmumineena shuhoodun
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,
وما نقموا منهم إلا أن يؤمنوا بالله العزيز الحميد
Wama naqamoo minhum illa an yuminoo biAllahi alAAazeezi alhameedi
وَمَا نَقَمُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ
To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.
الذي له ملك السماوات والأرض ۚ والله على كل شيء شهيد
Allathee lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi waAllahu AAala kulli shayin shaheedun
ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ
Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.
إن الذين فتنوا المؤمنين والمؤمنات ثم لم يتوبوا فلهم عذاب جهنم ولهم عذاب الحريق
Inna allatheena fatanoo almumineena waalmuminati thumma lam yatooboo falahum AAathabu jahannama walahum AAathabu alhareeqi
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا۟ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا۟ فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ ٱلْحَرِيقِ
Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.
إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات لهم جنات تجري من تحتها الأنهار ۚ ذلك الفوز الكبير
Inna allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum jannatun tajree min tahtiha alanharu thalika alfawzu alkabeeru
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ
Indeed, the vengeance of your Lord is severe.
إن بطش ربك لشديد
Inna batsha rabbika lashadeedun
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ
Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats.
إنه هو يبدئ ويعيد
Innahu huwa yubdio wayuAAeedu
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ
And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate,
وهو الغفور الودود
Wahuwa alghafooru alwadoodu
وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلْوَدُودُ
Honorable Owner of the Throne,
ذو العرش المجيد
Thoo alAAarshi almajeedi
ذُو ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْمَجِيدُ
Effecter of what He intends.
فعال لما يريد
FaAAAAalun lima yureedu
فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ
Has there reached you the story of the soldiers -
هل أتاك حديث الجنود
Hal ataka hadeethu aljunoodi
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْجُنُودِ
[Those of] Pharaoh and Thamud?
فرعون وثمود
FirAAawna wathamooda
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ
But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,
بل الذين كفروا في تكذيب
Bali allatheena kafaroo fee taktheebin
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِى تَكْذِيبٍ
While Allah encompasses them from behind.
والله من ورائهم محيط
WaAllahu min waraihim muheetun
وَٱللَّهُ مِن وَرَآئِهِم مُّحِيطٌۢ
But this is an honored Qur'an
بل هو قرآن مجيد
Bal huwa quranun majeedun
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْءَانٌ مَّجِيدٌ
