Al Waqi'a

1 When the Occurrence occurs,

1 Itha waqaAAati alwaqiAAatu

2 There is, at its occurrence, no denial.

2 Laysa liwaqAAatiha kathibatun

3 It will bring down [some] and raise up [others].

3 Khafidatun rafiAAatun

4 When the earth is shaken with convulsion

4 Itha rujjati alardu rajjan

5 And the mountains are broken down, crumbling

5 Wabussati aljibalu bassan

6 And become dust dispersing.

6 Fakanat habaan munbaththan

7 And you become [of] three kinds:

7 Wakuntum azwajan thalathatan

8 Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

8 Faashabu almaymanati ma ashabu almaymanati

9 And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

9 Waashabu almashamati ma ashabu almashamati

10 And the forerunners, the forerunners -

10 Waalssabiqoona alssabiqoona

11 Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]

11 Olaika almuqarraboona

12 In the Gardens of Pleasure,

12 Fee jannati alnnaAAeemi

13 A [large] company of the former peoples

13 Thullatun mina alawwaleena

14 And a few of the later peoples,

14 Waqaleelun mina alakhireena

15 On thrones woven [with ornament],

15 AAala sururin mawdoonatin

16 Reclining on them, facing each other.

16 Muttakieena AAalayha mutaqabileena

17 There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

17 Yatoofu AAalayhim wildanun mukhalladoona

18 With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -

18 Biakwabin waabareeqa wakasin min maAAeenin

19 No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated -

19 La yusaddaAAoona AAanha wala yunzifoona

20 And fruit of what they select

20 Wafakihatin mimma yatakhayyaroona

21 And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire.

21 Walahmi tayrin mimma yashtahoona

22 And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,

22 Wahoorun AAeenun

23 The likenesses of pearls well - protected,

23 Kaamthali allului almaknooni

24 As reward for what they used to do.

24 Jazaan bima kanoo yaAAmaloona

25 They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin -

25 La yasmaAAoona feeha laghwan wala tatheeman

26 Only a saying: "Peace, peace."

26 Illa qeelan salaman salaman

27 The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

27 Waashabu alyameeni ma ashabu alyameeni

28 [They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed

28 Fee sidrin makhdoodin

29 And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]

29 Watalhin mandoodin

30 And shade extended

30 Wathillin mamdoodin

31 And water poured out

31 Wamain maskoobin

32 And fruit, abundant [and varied],

32 Wafakihatin katheeratin

33 Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden,

33 La maqtooAAatin wala mamnooAAatin

34 And [upon] beds raised high.

34 Wafurushin marfooAAatin

35 Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation

35 Inna anshanahunna inshaan

36 And made them virgins,

36 FajaAAalnahunna abkaran

37 Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age,

37 AAuruban atraban

38 For the companions of the right [who are]

38 Liashabi alyameeni

39 A company of the former peoples

39 Thullatun mina alawwaleena

40 And a company of the later peoples.

40 Wathullatun mina alakhireena

41 And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

41 Waashabu alshshimali ma ashabu alshshimali

42 [They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water

42 Fee samoomin wahameemin

43 And a shade of black smoke,

43 Wathillin min yahmoomin

44 Neither cool nor beneficial.

44 La baridin wala kareemin

45 Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence,

45 Innahum kanoo qabla thalika mutrafeena

46 And they used to persist in the great violation,

46 Wakanoo yusirroona AAala alhinthi alAAatheemi

47 And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

47 Wakanoo yaqooloona aitha mitna wakunna turaban waAAithaman ainna lamabAAoothoona

48 And our forefathers [as well]?"

48 Awa abaona alawwaloona

49 Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, the former and the later peoples

49 Qul inna alawwaleena waalakhireena

50 Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day."

50 LamajmooAAoona ila meeqati yawmin maAAloomin

51 Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers,

51 Thumma innakum ayyuha alddalloona almukaththiboona

52 Will be eating from trees of zaqqum

52 Laakiloona min shajarin min zaqqoomin

53 And filling with it your bellies

53 Famalioona minha albutoona

54 And drinking on top of it from scalding water

54 Fashariboona AAalayhi mina alhameemi

55 And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels.

55 Fashariboona shurba alheemi

56 That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense.

56 Hatha nuzuluhum yawma alddeeni

57 We have created you, so why do you not believe?

57 Nahnu khalaqnakum falawla tusaddiqoona

58 Have you seen that which you emit?

58 Afaraaytum ma tumnoona

59 Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator?

59 Aantum takhluqoonahu am nahnu alkhaliqoona

60 We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone

60 Nahnu qaddarna baynakumu almawta wama nahnu bimasbooqeena

61 In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know.

61 AAala an nubaddila amthalakum wanunshiakum fee ma la taAAlamoona

62 And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember?

62 Walaqad AAalimtumu alnnashata aloola falawla tathakkaroona

63 And have you seen that [seed] which you sow?

63 Afaraaytum ma tahruthoona

64 Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower?

64 Aantum tazraAAoonahu am nahnu alzzariAAoona

65 If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder,

65 Law nashao lajaAAalnahu hutaman fathaltum tafakkahoona

66 [Saying], "Indeed, we are [now] in debt;

66 Inna lamughramoona

67 Rather, we have been deprived."

67 Bal nahnu mahroomoona

68 And have you seen the water that you drink?

68 Afaraaytumu almaa allathee tashraboona

69 Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down?

69 Aantum anzaltumoohu mina almuzni am nahnu almunziloona

70 If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful?

70 Law nashao jaAAalnahu ojajan falawla tashkuroona

71 And have you seen the fire that you ignite?

71 Afaraaytumu alnnara allatee tooroona

72 Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer?

72 Aantum anshatum shajarataha am nahnu almunshioona

73 We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers,

73 Nahnu jaAAalnaha tathkiratan wamataAAan lilmuqweena

74 So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

74 Fasabbih biismi rabbika alAAatheemi

75 Then I swear by the setting of the stars,

75 Fala oqsimu bimawaqiAAi alnnujoomi

76 And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great.

76 Wainnahu laqasamun law taAAlamoona AAatheemun

77 Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an

77 Innahu laquranun kareemun

78 In a Register well - protected;

78 Fee kitabin maknoonin

79 None touch it except the purified.

79 La yamassuhu illa almutahharoona

80 [It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

80 Tanzeelun min rabbi alAAalameena

81 Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent

81 Afabihatha alhadeethi antum mudhinoona

82 And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]?

82 WatajAAaloona rizqakum annakum tukaththiboona

83 Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat

83 Falawla itha balaghati alhulqooma

84 And you are at that time looking on -

84 Waantum heenaithin tanthuroona

85 And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see -

85 Wanahnu aqrabu ilayhi minkum walakin la tubsiroona

86 Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed,

86 Falawla in kuntum ghayra madeeneena

87 Bring it back, if you should be truthful?

87 TarjiAAoonaha in kuntum sadiqeena

88 And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah,

88 Faamma in kana mina almuqarrabeena

89 Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.

89 Farawhun warayhanun wajannatu naAAeemin

90 And if he was of the companions of the right,

90 Waamma in kana min ashabi alyameeni

91 Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right."

91 Fasalamun laka min ashabi alyameeni

92 But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray,

92 Waamma in kana mina almukaththibeena alddalleena

93 Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water

93 Fanuzulun min hameemin

94 And burning in Hellfire

94 Watasliyatu jaheemin

95 Indeed, this is the true certainty,

95 Inna hatha lahuwa haqqu alyaqeeni

96 So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

96 Fasabbih biismi rabbika alAAatheemi
