Chapter 74, 56 verses
O thou wrapped up (in the mantle)!
O you who are clothed!
আল্লাহর নামে শুরু করছি, পরম করুণাময় পরম দয়ালু; হে বস্ত্রাবৃত,
O you who covers himself [with a garment],
Arise and deliver thy warning!
Arise and warn,
উঠো, অতঃপর সতর্ক কর,
Arise and warn
And thy Lord do thou magnify!
And your Lord do magnify,
এবং তোমার প্রতিপালকের শ্রেষ্ঠত্ব ঘোষণা কর।
And your Lord glorify
And thy garments keep free from stain!
And your garments do purify,
এবং তোমার পোশাক পরিচ্ছন্ন রাখ,
And your clothing purify
And all abomination shun!
And uncleanness do shun,
এবং অপবিত্রতা থেকে দূরে থাকো,
And uncleanliness avoid
Nor expect, in giving, any increase (for thyself)!
And bestow not favors that you may receive again with increase,
এবং অধিক পাওয়ার আশায় দান করো না,
And do not confer favor to acquire more
But, for thy Lord's (Cause), be patient and constant!
And for the sake of your Lord, be patient.
এবং তোমার প্রতিপালকের জন্য ধৈর্য ধারণ করো।
But for your Lord be patient.
Finally, when the Trumpet is sounded,
For when the trumpet is sounded,
অতঃপর যখন শিঙ্গায় ফুঁক দেওয়া হবে,
And when the trumpet is blown,
That will be - that Day - a Day of Distress, -
That, at that time, shall be a difficult day,
তখন সে দিন হবে এক কঠিন দিন,
That Day will be a difficult day
Far from easy for those without Faith.
For the unbelievers, anything but easy.
অস্বীকারকারীদের উপর সহজ হবে না।
For the disbelievers - not easy.
Leave Me alone, (to deal) with the (creature) whom I created (bare and) alone! -

Leave Me with the one I created alone
To whom I granted resources in abundance,
And give him vast riches,
এবং তাকে দিয়েছি বিপুল সম্পদ,
And to whom I granted extensive wealth
And sons to be by his side! -
And sons dwelling in his presence,
এবং উপস্থিত সন্তানদের,
And children present [with him]
To whom I made (life) smooth and comfortable!
And I adjusted affairs for him adjustably;
এবং তার জন্য ব্যাপক সুব্যবস্থা,
And spread [everything] before him, easing [his life].
Yet is he greedy - that I should add (yet more); -
And yet he desires that I should add more!
এরপরেও সে আশা করে যে আমি আরও দেই,
Then he desires that I should add more.
By no means! For to Our Signs he has been refractory!
By no means! surely he offers opposition to Our communications.
কখনোই নয়! নিশ্চয়ই সে আমার নিদর্শনসমূহের প্রতি ছিলো উদ্ধত,
No! Indeed, he has been toward Our verses obstinate.
Soon will I visit him with a mount of calamities!
I will make a distressing punishment overtake him.
শীঘ্রই আমি তাকে দুর্গম আরোহনে বাধ্য করবো।
I will cover him with arduous torment.
For he thought and he plotted; -
Surely he reflected and guessed,
নিশ্চয়ই সে চিন্তা করেছে এবং পরিকল্পনা করেছে,
Indeed, he thought and deliberated.
And woe to him! How he plotted! -
But may he be cursed how he plotted;

আবার ধ্বংস হোক সে! কীভাবে সে পরিকল্পনা করলো!
Then may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.
Then he looked round;
Then he looked,
অতঃপর সে লক্ষ্য করলো,
Then he considered [again];
Then he frowned and he scowled;
Then he frowned and scowled,
অতঃপর সে ভ্রূকুটি করল ও মুখ বিকৃত করলো,
Then he frowned and scowled;
Then he turned back and was haughty;
Then he turned back and was big with pride,
অতঃপর সে পৃষ্ঠ প্রদর্শন করল ও অহংকার করল,

Then said he: "This is nothing but magic, derived from of old;
~Then he said: This is naught but enchantment, narrated (from others);
এবং বলল, “এ তো কেবল প্রচলিত জাদু,”
And said, "This is not but magic imitated [from others].
"This is nothing but the word of a mortal!"

Soon will I cast him into Hell - Fire!
I will cast him into hell.
আমি তাকে সাকারে নিক্ষেপ করবো।
I will drive him into Saqar.

And what will make you realize what hell is?
আর তুমি কীভাবে জানবে সাকার কী?
And what can make you know what is Saqar?
Naught doth it permit to endure, and naught doth it leave alone! -
It leaves naught nor does it spare aught.
তা কিছু অবশিষ্ট রাখে না এবং কিছু ছাড়েও না,
It lets nothing remain and leaves nothing [unburned],
Darkening and changing the colour of man!
It scorches the mortal.
তা চামড়া দগ্ধকারী,
Blackening the skins.
Over it are Nineteen.
Over it are nineteen.
তার উপর রয়েছে উনিশ।
Over it are nineteen [angels].
And We have set none but angels as Guardians of the Fire; and We have fixed their number only as a trial for Unbelievers, - in order that the People of the Book may arrive at certainty, and the Believers may increase in Faith, - and that no doubts may be left for the People of the Book and the Believers, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the Unbelievers may say, "What symbol doth Allah intend by this?" Thus doth Allah leave to stray whom He pleaseth, and guide whom He pleaseth: and none can know the forces of thy Lord, except He and this is no other than a warning to mankind.
And We have not made the wardens of the fire others than angels, and We have not made their number but as a trial for those who disbelieve, that those who have been given the book may be certain and those who believe may increase in faith, and those who have been given the book and the believers may not doubt, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the unbelievers may say: What does Allah mean by this parable? Thus does Allah make err whom He pleases, and He guides whom He pleases, and none knows the hosts of your Lord but He Himself; and this is naught but a reminder to the mortals.
এবং আমরা ফেরেশতাদের ছাড়া আগুনের তত্ত্বাবধায়ক বানাইনি, এবং এদের সংখ্যা নির্ধারণ করিনি অবিশ্বাসীদের জন্য এক পরীক্ষা ছাড়া, যেনো কিতাবপ্রাপ্তরা নিশ্চিত হতে পারে, এবং মুমিনদের বিশ্বাস বৃদ্ধি পায়, এবং কিতাবপ্রাপ্তরা ও মুমিনরা সন্দেহ না করে; আর যাদের অন্তরে রোগ আছে এবং অস্বীকারকারীরা বলে, “ এ উদাহরণ দ্বারা কী উদ্দেশ্য করেছেন?” এভাবেই যাকে ইচ্ছা পথভ্রষ্ট করেন এবং যাকে ইচ্ছা পথনির্দেশ দেন। আর তোমার প্রতিপালকের বাহিনীসমূহ সম্পর্কে তিনি ছাড়া কেউ জানে না। এবং এটি মানুষের জন্য এক উপদেশ ছাড়া কিছু নয়।
And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is hypocrisy and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allah intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allah leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And mention of the Fire is not but a reminder to humanity.
Nay, verily: By the Moon,
Nay; I swear by the moon,
কখনোই নয়! শপথ চাঁদের,
No! By the moon
And by the Night as it retreateth,
And the night when it departs,
এবং রাতের, যখন তা অপসারিত হয়,
And [by] the night when it departs
And by the Dawn as it shineth forth, -
And the daybreak when it shines;
এবং সকালের, যখন তা আলোকিত হয়,
And [by] the morning when it brightens,
This is but one of the mighty (portents),
Surely it (hell) is one of the gravest (misfortunes),
নিশ্চয়ই তা এক মহাবিষয়ের অন্যতম।
Indeed, the Fire is of the greatest [afflictions]
A warning to mankind, -
A warning to mortals,
মানুষের জন্য সতর্কবার্তা,
As a warning to humanity -
To any of you that chooses to press forward, or to follow behind; -
To him among you who wishes to go forward or remain behind.
তোমাদের মধ্যে যে অগ্রসর হতে বা পিছিয়ে থাকতে চায় তার জন্য।
To whoever wills among you to proceed or stay behind.

Except the Companions of the Right Hand.
Except the people of the right hand,
তবে ডানদিকের সঙ্গীরা ব্যতীত।
Except the companions of the right,
(They will be) in Gardens (of Delight): they will question each other,
In gardens, they shall ask each other
তারা থাকবে উদ্যানসমূহে; পরস্পরকে প্রশ্ন করবে,
[Who will be] in gardens, questioning each other
And (ask) of the Sinners:
About the guilty:
অপরাধীদের সম্পর্কে,
About the criminals,
"What led you into Hell Fire?"
What has brought you into hell?
“কী তোমাদের সাকারে প্রবেশ করিয়েছে?”
[And asking them], "What put you into Saqar?"
They will say: "We were not of those who prayed;
They shall say: We were not of those who prayed;
তারা বলবে, “আমরা আদায়কারীদের মধ্যে ছিলাম না,
They will say, "We were not of those who prayed,
"Nor were we of those who fed the indigent;
And we used not to feed the poor;
এবং অভাবগ্রস্তকে আহার করাতাম না,
Nor did we used to feed the poor.
"But we used to talk vanities with vain talkers;
And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who entered into vain discourses.
এবং আমরা অর্থহীন আলোচনায় লিপ্তদের সঙ্গে যোগ দিতাম,
And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who engaged [in it],
"And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,
And we used to call the day of judgment a lie;
এবং প্রতিদান দিবসকে অস্বীকার করতাম,
And we used to deny the Day of Recompense
"Until there came to us (the Hour) that is certain."
Till death overtook us.
অবশেষে নিশ্চিত বিষয়টি আমাদের কাছে আসলো।”
Until there came to us the certainty."
Then will no intercession of (any) intercessors profit them.
So the intercession of intercessors shall not avail them.
অতঃপর কাজে আসবে না সুপারিশকারীদের সুপারিশ।
So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.
Then what is the matter with them that they turn away from admonition? -
What is then the matter with them, that they turn away from the admonition
তাহলে তাদের কী হয়েছে যে তারা উপদেশ থেকে মুখ ফিরিয়ে নিচ্ছে?
Then what is [the matter] with them that they are, from the reminder, turning away
As if they were affrighted asses,
As if they were asses taking fright
তারা যেন ভীতসন্ত্রস্ত গাধা
As if they were alarmed donkeys
Fleeing from a lion!
That had fled from a lion?
যারা সিংহ থেকে পালিয়েছে।
Fleeing from a lion?
Forsooth, each one of them wants to be given scrolls (of revelation) spread out!
Nay; every one of them desires that he may be given pages spread out;
বরং তাদের প্রত্যেকে চায় যে তাকে খোলা পাতা সমূহ দেওয়া হোক।
Rather, every person among them desires that he would be given scriptures spread about.

Nay! it is surely an admonition.
কখনোই নয়! নিশ্চয়ই এটি এক উপদেশ,
No! Indeed, the Qur'an is a reminder
Let any who will, keep it in remembrance!
So whoever pleases may mind it.
অতএব যার ইচ্ছা, সে তা স্মরণ করুক।
Then whoever wills will remember it.
But none will keep it in remembrance except as Allah wills: He is the Lord of Righteousness, and the Lord of Forgiveness.
And they will not mind unless Allah please. He is worthy to be feared and worthy to forgive.
আর তারা স্মরণ করবে না, যদি না ইচ্ছা করেন। তিনিই ভয়ের অধিক যোগ্য এবং ক্ষমা করার অধিক যোগ্য।
And they will not remember except that Allah wills. He is worthy of fear and adequate for [granting] forgiveness.
