Al Nazaat

1 By those [angels] who extract with violence

1 WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

2 And [by] those who remove with ease

2 Waalnnashitati nashtan

3 And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

3 Waalssabihati sabhan

4 And those who race each other in a race

4 Faalssabiqati sabqan

5 And those who arrange [each] matter,

5 Faalmudabbirati amran

6 On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

6 Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

7 There will follow it the subsequent [one].

7 TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

8 Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

8 Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

9 Their eyes humbled.

9 Absaruha khashiAAatun

10 They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

10 Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

11 Even if we should be decayed bones?

11 Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

12 They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."

12 Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

13 Indeed, it will be but one shout,

13 Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

14 And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

14 Faitha hum bialssahirati

15 Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

15 Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

16 When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

16 Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

17 "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

17 Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

18 And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

18 Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

19 And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

19 Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

20 And he showed him the greatest sign,

20 Faarahu alayata alkubra

21 But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

21 Fakaththaba waAAasa

22 Then he turned his back, striving.

22 Thumma adbara yasAAa

23 And he gathered [his people] and called out

23 Fahashara fanada

24 And said, "I am your most exalted lord."

24 Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

25 So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

25 Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

26 Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

26 Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

27 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

27 Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

28 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

28 RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

29 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

29 Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

30 And after that He spread the earth.

30 Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

31 He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

31 Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

32 And the mountains He set firmly

32 Waaljibala arsaha

33 As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

33 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

34 But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

34 Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

35 The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

35 Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

36 And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

36 Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

37 So as for he who transgressed

37 Faamma man tagha

38 And preferred the life of the world,

38 Waathara alhayata alddunya

39 Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

39 Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

40 But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

40 Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

41 Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

41 Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

42 They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

42 Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

43 In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

43 Feema anta min thikraha

44 To your Lord is its finality.

44 Ila rabbika muntahaha

45 You are only a warner for those who fear it.

45 Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

46 It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.

46 Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha
