Chapter 54, 55 verses
The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two].
Iqtarabati alssaAAatu wainshaqqa alqamaru
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم اقتربت الساعة وانشق القمر
ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ
And if they see a miracle, they turn away and say, "Passing magic."
Wain yaraw ayatan yuAAridoo wayaqooloo sihrun mustamirrun
وإن يروا آية يعرضوا ويقولوا سحر مستمر
وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ ءَايَةً يُعْرِضُوا۟ وَيَقُولُوا۟ سِحْرٌ مُّسْتَمِرٌّ
And they denied and followed their inclinations. But for every matter is a [time of] settlement.
Wakaththaboo waittabaAAoo ahwaahum wakullu amrin mustaqirrun
وكذبوا واتبعوا أهواءهم ۚ وكل أمر مستقر
وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ
And there has already come to them of information that in which there is deterrence -
Walaqad jaahum mina alanbai ma feehi muzdajarun
ولقد جاءهم من الأنباء ما فيه مزدجر
وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَنۢبَآءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ
Extensive wisdom - but warning does not avail [them].
Hikmatun balighatun fama tughnee alnnuthuru
حكمة بالغة ۖ فما تغن النذر
حِكْمَةٌۢ بَٰلِغَةٌ فَمَا تُغْنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ
So leave them, [O Muhammad]. The Day the Caller calls to something forbidding,
Fatawalla AAanhum yawma yadAAu alddaAAi ila shayin nukurin
فتول عنهم ۘ يوم يدع الداع إلى شيء نكر
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ ٱلدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَىْءٍ نُّكُرٍ
Their eyes humbled, they will emerge from the graves as if they were locusts spreading,
KhushshaAAan absaruhum yakhrujoona mina alajdathi kaannahum jaradun muntashirun
خشعا أبصارهم يخرجون من الأجداث كأنهم جراد منتشر
خُشَّعًا أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُّنتَشِرٌ
Racing ahead toward the Caller. The disbelievers will say, "This is a difficult Day."
MuhtiAAeena ila alddaAAi yaqoolu alkafiroona hatha yawmun AAasirun
مهطعين إلى الداع ۖ يقول الكافرون هذا يوم عسر
مُّهْطِعِينَ إِلَى ٱلدَّاعِ يَقُولُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ
The people of Noah denied before them, and they denied Our servant and said, "A madman," and he was repelled.
Kaththabat qablahum qawmu noohin fakaththaboo AAabdana waqaloo majnoonun waizdujira
۞ كذبت قبلهم قوم نوح فكذبوا عبدنا وقالوا مجنون وازدجر
كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجْنُونٌ وَٱزْدُجِرَ
So he invoked his Lord, "Indeed, I am overpowered, so help."
FadaAAa rabbahu annee maghloobun faintasir
فدعا ربه أني مغلوب فانتصر
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّى مَغْلُوبٌ فَٱنتَصِرْ
Then We opened the gates of the heaven with rain pouring down
Fafatahna abwaba alssamai bimain munhamirin
ففتحنا أبواب السماء بماء منهمر
فَفَتَحْنَآ أَبْوَٰبَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَآءٍ مُّنْهَمِرٍ

Sailing under Our observation as reward for he who had been denied.
Tajree biaAAyunina jazaan liman kana kufira
تجري بأعيننا جزاء لمن كان كفر
تَجْرِى بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَآءً لِّمَن كَانَ كُفِرَ
And We left it as a sign, so is there any who will remember?
Walaqad taraknaha ayatan fahal min muddakirin

Kaththabat thamoodu bialnnuthuri
كذبت ثمود بالنذر
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ
And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness.
Faqaloo abasharan minna wahidan nattabiAAuhu inna ithan lafee dalalin wasuAAurin
فقالوا أبشرا منا واحدا نتبعه إنا إذا لفي ضلال وسعر
فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَبَشَرًا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدًا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذًا لَّفِى ضَلَٰلٍ وَسُعُرٍ
Has the message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar."
Aolqiya alththikru AAalayhi min baynina bal huwa kaththabun ashirun
أألقي الذكر عليه من بيننا بل هو كذاب أشر
أَءُلْقِىَ ٱلذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنۢ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌ
They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.
