عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ١

Whereof do they question one another?

AAamma yatasaaloon

عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ٢

(It is) of the awful tidings,

AAani annaba-i alAAatheem

ٱلَّذِى هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ٣

Concerning which they are in disagreement.

Allathee hum feehi mukhtalifoon

كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ٤

Nay, but they will come to know!

Kalla sayaAAlamoon

ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ٥

Nay, again, but they will come to know!

Thumma kalla sayaAAlamoon

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَـٰدًا٦

Have We not made the earth an expanse,

Alam najAAali al-arda mihada

وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا٧

And the high hills bulwarks?

Waljibala awtada

وَخَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا٨

And We have created you in pairs,

Wakhalaqnakum azwaja

وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا٩

And have appointed your sleep for repose,

WajaAAalna nawmakum subata

وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا١٠

And have appointed the night as a cloak,

WajaAAalna allayla libasa

وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا١١

And have appointed the day for livelihood.

WajaAAalna annaharamaAAasha

وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا١٢

And We have built above you seven strong (heavens),

Wabanayna fawqakum sabAAan shidada

وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا١٣

And have appointed a dazzling lamp,

WajaAAalna sirajan wahhaja

وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُعْصِرَٰتِ مَآءً ثَجَّاجًا١٤

And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water,

Waanzalna mina almuAAsiratimaan thajjaja

لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا١٥

Thereby to produce grain and plant,

Linukhrija bihi habban wanabata

وَجَنَّـٰتٍ أَلْفَافًا١٦

And gardens of thick foliage.

Wajannatin alfafa

إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَـٰتًا١٧

Lo! the Day of Decision is a fixed time,

Inna yawma alfasli kana meeqata

يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا١٨

A day when the trumpet is blown and ye come in multitudes,

Yawma yunfakhu fee assoorifata/toona afwaja

وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَٰبًا١٩

And the heaven is opened and becometh as gates,

Wafutihati assamao fakanatabwaba

وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا٢٠

And the hills are set in motion and become as a mirage.

Wasuyyirati aljibalu fakanatsaraba

إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا٢١

Lo! hell lurketh in ambush,

Inna jahannama kanat mirsada

لِّلطَّـٰغِينَ مَـَٔابًا٢٢

A home for the rebellious.

Littagheena maaba

لَّـٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحْقَابًا٢٣

They will abide therein for ages.

Labitheena feeha ahqaba

لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا٢٤

Therein taste they neither coolness nor (any) drink

La yathooqoona feehabardan wala sharaba

إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا٢٥

Save boiling water and a paralysing cold:

Illa hameeman waghassaqa

جَزَآءً وِفَاقًا٢٦

Reward proportioned (to their evil deeds).

Jazaan wifaqa

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا٢٧

For lo! they looked not for a reckoning;

Innahum kanoo la yarjoona hisaba

وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا كِذَّابًا٢٨

They called Our revelations false with strong denial.

Wakaththaboo bi-ayatinakiththaba

وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَـٰهُ كِتَـٰبًا٢٩

Everything have We recorded in a Book.

Wakulla shay-in ahsaynahu kitaba

فَذُوقُوا۟ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا٣٠

So taste (of that which ye have earned). No increase do We give you save of torment.

Fathooqoo falan nazeedakum illaAAathaba

إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا٣١

Lo! for the duteous is achievement -

Inna lilmuttaqeena mafaza

حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَـٰبًا٣٢

Gardens enclosed and vineyards,

Hada-iqa waaAAnaba

وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا٣٣

And voluptuous women of equal age;

WakawaAAiba atraba

وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا٣٤

And a full cup.

Waka/san dihaqa

لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّٰبًا٣٥

There hear they never vain discourse, nor lying -

La yasmaAAoona feeha laghwanwala kiththaba

جَزَآءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابًا٣٦

Requital from thy Lord - a gift in payment -

Jazaan min rabbika AAataan hisaba

رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا٣٧

Lord of the heavens and the earth, and (all) that is between them, the Beneficent; with Whom none can converse.

Rabbi assamawati wal-ardiwama baynahuma arrahmani layamlikoona minhu khitaba

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا٣٨

On the day when the angels and the Spirit stand arrayed, they speak not, saving him whom the Beneficent alloweth and who speaketh right.

Yawma yaqoomu arroohu walmala-ikatusaffan la yatakallamoona illa man athinalahu arrahmanu waqala sawaba

ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا٣٩

That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.

Thalika alyawmu alhaqqu famanshaa ittakhatha ila rabbihi maaba

إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَـٰكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا٤٠

Lo! We warn you of a doom at hand, a day whereon a man will look on that which his own hands have sent before, and the disbeliever will cry: "Would that I were dust!"

Inna antharnakum AAathabanqareeban yawma yanthuru almaro ma qaddamatyadahu wayaqoolu alkafiru ya laytanee kuntuturaba
