وَٱلطُّورِ١

By the Mount,

Wattoor

وَكِتَـٰبٍ مَّسْطُورٍ٢

And a Scripture inscribed

Wakitabin mastoor

فِى رَقٍّ مَّنشُورٍ٣

On fine parchment unrolled,

Fee raqqin manshoor

وَٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْمَعْمُورِ٤

And the House frequented,

Walbayti almaAAmoor

وَٱلسَّقْفِ ٱلْمَرْفُوعِ٥

And the roof exalted,

Wassaqfi almarfooAA

وَٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْمَسْجُورِ٦

And the sea kept filled,

Walbahri almasjoor

إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَٰقِعٌ٧

Lo! the doom of thy Lord will surely come to pass;

Inna AAathaba rabbika lawaqiAA

مَّا لَهُۥ مِن دَافِعٍ٨

There is none that can ward it off.

Ma lahu min dafiAA

يَوْمَ تَمُورُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ مَوْرًا٩

On the day when the heaven will heave with (awful) heaving,

Yawma tamooru assamao mawra

وَتَسِيرُ ٱلْجِبَالُ سَيْرًا١٠

And the mountains move away with (awful) movement,

Wataseeru aljibalu sayra

فَوَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ١١

Then woe that day unto the deniers

Fawaylun yawma-ithin lilmukaththibeen

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى خَوْضٍ يَلْعَبُونَ١٢

Who play in talk of grave matters;

Allatheena hum fee khawdinyalAAaboon

يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا١٣

The day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hell

Yawma yudaAAAAoona ila narijahannama daAAAAa

هَـٰذِهِ ٱلنَّارُ ٱلَّتِى كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ١٤

(And it is said unto them): This is the Fire which ye were wont to deny.

Hathihi annaru allateekuntum biha tukaththiboon

أَفَسِحْرٌ هَـٰذَآ أَمْ أَنتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ١٥

Is this magic, or do ye not see?

Afasihrun hatha am antum latubsiroon

ٱصْلَوْهَا فَٱصْبِرُوٓا۟ أَوْ لَا تَصْبِرُوا۟ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ إِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ١٦

Endure the heat thereof, and whether ye are patient of it or impatient of it is all one for you. Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do.

Islawha fasbirooaw la tasbiroo sawaon AAalaykum innamatujzawna ma kuntum taAAmaloon

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّـٰتٍ وَنَعِيمٍ١٧

Lo! those who kept their duty dwell in gardens and delight,

Inna almuttaqeena fee jannatinwanaAAeem

فَـٰكِهِينَ بِمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ وَوَقَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْجَحِيمِ١٨

Happy because of what their Lord hath given them, and (because) their Lord hath warded off from them the torment of hell-fire.

Fakiheena bima atahumrabbuhum wawaqahum rabbuhum AAathaba aljaheem

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ١٩

(And it is said unto them): Eat and drink in health (as a reward) for what ye used to do,

Kuloo washraboo hanee-an bimakuntum taAAmaloon

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍ ۖ وَزَوَّجْنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ٢٠

Reclining on ranged couches. And we wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes.

Muttaki-eena AAala sururin masfoofatinwazawwajnahum bihoorin AAeen

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَـٰنٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَآ أَلَتْنَـٰهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ ۚ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ٢١

And they who believe and whose seed follow them in faith, We cause their seed to join them (there), and We deprive them of nought of their (life's) work. Every man is a pledge for that which he hath earned.

Wallatheena amanoo wattabaAAat-humthurriyyatuhum bi-eemanin alhaqnabihim thurriyyatahum wama alatnahum minAAamalihim min shay-in kullu imri-in bima kasaba raheen

وَأَمْدَدْنَـٰهُم بِفَـٰكِهَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ٢٢

And We provide them with fruit and meat such as they desire.

Waamdadnahum bifakihatin walahminmimma yashtahoon

يَتَنَـٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌ٢٣

There they pass from hand to hand a cup wherein is neither vanity nor cause of sin.

YatanazaAAoona feeha ka/san lalaghwun feeha wala ta/theem

۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌ لَّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌ مَّكْنُونٌ٢٤

And there go round, waiting on them menservants of their own, as they were hidden pearls.

Wayatoofu AAalayhim ghilmanunlahum kaannahum lu/luon maknoon

وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ٢٥

And some of them draw near unto others, questioning,

Waaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdinyatasaaloon

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِىٓ أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ٢٦

Saying: Lo! of old, when we were with our families, we were ever anxious;

Qaloo inna kunna qablufee ahlina mushfiqeen

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ٢٧

But Allah hath been gracious unto us and hath preserved us from the torment of the breath of Fire.

Famanna Allahu AAalayna wawaqanaAAathaba assamoom

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ٢٨

Lo! we used to pray unto Him of old. Lo! He is the Benign, the Merciful.

Inna kunna min qablu nadAAoohuinnahu huwa albarru arraheem

فَذَكِّرْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ٢٩

Therefor warn (men, O Muhammad). By the grace of Allah thou art neither soothsayer nor madman.

قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ٣١

Say (unto them): Except (your fill)! Lo! I am with you among the expectant.

أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَـٰمُهُم بِهَـٰذَآ ۚ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ٣٢

Do their minds command them to do this, or are they an outrageous folk?

فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِحَدِيثٍ مِّثْلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَـٰدِقِينَ٣٤

Then let them produce speech the like thereof, if they are truthful.

Falya/too bihadeethin mithlihi in kanoosadiqeena

أَمْ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَىْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْخَـٰلِقُونَ٣٥

Or were they created out of naught? Or are they the creators?

Am khuliqoo min ghayri shay-in am humu alkhaliqoon

أَمْ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ ۚ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ٣٦

Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they are sure of nothing!

Or do they own the treasures of thy Lord? Or have they been given charge (thereof)?

Am AAindahum khaza-inu rabbika amhumu almusaytiroon

أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ ۖ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ٣٨

Or have they any stairway (unto heaven) by means of which they overhear (decrees). Then let their listener produce some warrant manifest!

أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَـٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ٣٩

Or hath He daughters whereas ye have sons?

أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ٤١

Or possess they the Unseen so that they can write (it) down?

Am AAindahumu alghaybu fahum yaktuboon

أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْمَكِيدُونَ٤٢

Or seek they to ensnare (the messenger)? But those who disbelieve, they are the ensnared!

أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ٤٣

Or have they any god beside Allah? Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)!

وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كِسْفًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًا يَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابٌ مَّرْكُومٌ٤٤

And if they were to see a fragment of the heaven falling, they would say: A heap of clouds.

Wa-in yaraw kisfan mina assama-isaqitan yaqooloo sahabun markoom

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَـٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ٤٥

Then let them be (O Muhammad), till they meet their day, in which they will be thunder-stricken,

Fatharhum hatta yulaqooyawmahumu allathee feehi yusAAaqoon

يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ٤٦

A day in which their guile will naught avail them, nor will they be helped.

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابًا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ٤٧

And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a punishment beyond that. But most of them know not.

So wait patiently (O Muhammad) for thy Lord's decree, for surely thou art in Our sight; and hymn the praise of thy Lord when thou uprisest,

Wasbir lihukmi rabbikafa-innaka bi-aAAyunina wasabbih bihamdirabbika heena taqoom
