Smoke, The Evident Smoke — Abdul Hye Translation – Parallel Quran

1 Lighter Punishment followed by Severer

وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِینِ ۝٢

By the clear book (the Qur’an).

wal-kitābi l-mubīn

إِنَّاۤ أَنزَلۡنَـٰهُ فِی لَیۡلَةࣲ مُّبَـٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِینَ ۝٣

Surely We sent it (this Qur’an) down in a blessed night (of Qadr in the month of Ramadan). Surely, We are ever warning (mankind).

innā anzalnāhu fī laylatin mubārakatin innā kunnā mundhirīn

فِیهَا یُفۡرَقُ كُلُّ أَمۡرٍ حَكِیمٍ ۝٤

in it (that night) every matter is decided wisely,

fīhā yuf'raqu kullu amrin ḥakīmi

أَمۡرࣰا مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۤۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِینَ ۝٥

by a command from Us. Surely, We have ever sending (the Messengers),

amran min ʿindinā innā kunnā mur'silīn

رَحۡمَةࣰ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِیعُ ٱلۡعَلِیمُ ۝٦

(as) Mercy from your Lord. Surely! He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.

raḥmatan min rabbika innahu huwa l-samīʿu l-ʿalīm

رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَاۤۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِینَ ۝٧

The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if you have faith with certainty.

rabbi l-samāwāti wal-arḍi wamā baynahumā in kuntum mūqinīn

لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ یُحۡیِۦ وَیُمِیتُۖ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَاۤىِٕكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ ۝٨

There is no true one worthy of worship but He. It is He Who gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers.

lā ilāha illā huwa yuḥ'yī wayumītu rabbukum warabbu ābāikumu l-awalīn

بَلۡ هُمۡ فِی شَكࣲّ یَلۡعَبُونَ ۝٩

Nay! They play in doubt.

bal hum fī shakkin yalʿabūn

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ یَوۡمَ تَأۡتِی ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ بِدُخَانࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ۝١٠

Then you wait for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke,

fa-ir'taqib yawma tatī l-samāu bidukhānin mubīni

یَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَـٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِیمࣱ ۝١١

covering the people, this will be a painful punishment.

yaghshā l-nāsa hādhā ʿadhābun alīmu

رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝١٢

(People will say): “Our Lord! Remove the punishment from us, really we have become believers!”

rabbanā ik'shif ʿannā l-ʿadhāba innā mu'minūn

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مُّبِینࣱ ۝١٣

How can there be an admonition (at the time when the punishment has reached) for them when a Messenger explaining things clearly has already come to them

annā lahumu l-dhik'rā waqad jāahum rasūlun mubīnu

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡا۟ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمࣱ مَّجۡنُونٌ ۝١٤

Yet, they turn away from him (Muhammad) and said: “He (Muhammad) is a madman, taught (by others)!”

thumma tawallaw ʿanhu waqālū muʿallamun majnūnu

إِنَّا كَاشِفُوا۟ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِیلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَاۤىِٕدُونَ ۝١٥

Surely, We shall remove the punishment (famine) for a while. But you will return (to disbelief).

innā kāshifū l-ʿadhābi qalīlan innakum ʿāidūn

یَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰۤ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ ۝١٦

On the Day We shall seize you with the greatest grasp. Surely, We will take retribution.

yawma nabṭishu l-baṭshata l-kub'rā innā muntaqimūn

۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ كَرِیمٌ ۝١٧

And indeed We tried Pharaoh’s people before them, when a noble Messenger (Moses) came to them,

walaqad fatannā qablahum qawma fir'ʿawna wajāahum rasūlun karīmu

أَنۡ أَدُّوۤا۟ إِلَیَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّی لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِینࣱ ۝١٨

saying: “Deliver the servants of Allah (the children of Israel) to me. Surely! I am a Messenger to you worthy of all trust.

an addū ilayya ʿibāda l-lahi innī lakum rasūlun amīnu

وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّیۤ ءَاتِیكُم بِسُلۡطَـٰنࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ۝١٩

And don’t exalt (yourselves) against Allah. Truly, I have come to you with a clear authority.

wa-an lā taʿlū ʿalā l-lahi innī ātīkum bisul'ṭānin mubīni

وَإِنِّی عُذۡتُ بِرَبِّی وَرَبِّكُمۡ أَن تَرۡجُمُونِ ۝٢٠

And truly, I seek refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me.

wa-innī ʿudh'tu birabbī warabbikum an tarjumūn

وَإِن لَّمۡ تُؤۡمِنُوا۟ لِی فَٱعۡتَزِلُونِ ۝٢١

But if you don’t believe me, then keep away from me and leave me alone.”

wa-in lam tu'minū lī fa-iʿ'tazilūn

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥۤ أَنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ قَوۡمࣱ مُّجۡرِمُونَ ۝٢٢

So he (Moses) called upon (when they were aggressive) his Lord (saying) indeed: “These are criminal people.”

fadaʿā rabbahu anna hāulāi qawmun muj'rimūn

فَأَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِی لَیۡلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ۝٢٣

(Allah said): “You depart with My servants by night. Surely, you will be pursued.

fa-asri biʿibādī laylan innakum muttabaʿūn

وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندࣱ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ۝٢٤

And (when you have crossed the sea with your people), then leave the sea as it is (quiet and divided). Surely, they are a host to be drowned.”

wa-ut'ruki l-baḥra rahwan innahum jundun mugh'raqūn

كَمۡ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ ۝٢٥

How many gardens and springs did they (Pharaoh’s people) leave behind,

kam tarakū min jannātin waʿuyūni

وَزُرُوعࣲ وَمَقَامࣲ كَرِیمࣲ ۝٢٦

and corn-fields and goodly places,

wazurūʿin wamaqāmin karīmi

وَنَعۡمَةࣲ كَانُوا۟ فِیهَا فَـٰكِهِینَ ۝٢٧

and comforts (of life) they used to take delight in it!

wanaʿmatin kānū fīhā fākihīn

كَذَ ٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَـٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِینَ ۝٢٨

Thus We made other people inherit them (the children of Israel inherit the kingdom of Egypt).

kadhālika wa-awrathnāhā qawman ākharīn

فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِینَ ۝٢٩

And neither the heavens and the earth did weep for them, nor were they given a respite.

famā bakat ʿalayhimu l-samāu wal-arḍu wamā kānū munẓarīn

2 Good and Evil Rewarded

وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّیۡنَا بَنِیۤ إِسۡرَ ٰۤءِیلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِینِ ۝٣٠

And indeed We saved the children of Israel from the humiliating punishment

walaqad najjaynā banī is'rāīla mina l-ʿadhābi l-muhīn

مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِیࣰا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِینَ ۝٣١

from Pharaoh. Surely! He was arrogant and was one of the transgressors,

min fir'ʿawna innahu kāna ʿāliyan mina l-mus'rifīn

وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَـٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٣٢

and surely, We chose them (the children of Israel) above the worlds (during the time of Moses) with knowledge.

walaqadi ikh'tarnāhum ʿalā ʿil'min ʿalā l-ʿālamīn

وَءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡءَایَـٰتِ مَا فِیهِ بَلَـٰۤؤࣱا۟ مُّبِینٌ ۝٣٣

And granted them signs in which there was a plain trial.

waātaynāhum mina l-āyāti mā fīhi balāon mubīnu

إِنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ لَیَقُولُونَ ۝٣٤

Surely, these (people of Quraish) say:

inna hāulāi layaqūlūn

إِنۡ هِیَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِینَ ۝٣٥

“There is nothing after our first death and we shall not be resurrected.

in hiya illā mawtatunā l-ūlā wamā naḥnu bimunsharīn

فَأۡتُوا۟ بِءَابَاۤىِٕنَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ ۝٣٦

Bring back our forefathers if you speak the truth!”

fatū biābāinā in kuntum ṣādiqīn

أَهُمۡ خَیۡرٌ أَمۡ قَوۡمُ تُبَّعࣲ وَٱلَّذِینَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَـٰهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوا۟ مُجۡرِمِینَ ۝٣٧

Are they better than the people of Tubba and those who were before them? We destroyed them because they were indeed criminals.

ahum khayrun am qawmu tubbaʿin wa-alladhīna min qablihim ahlaknāhum innahum kānū muj'rimīn

وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِینَ ۝٣٨

And We did not create the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, for merely a play.

wamā khalaqnā l-samāwāti wal-arḍa wamā baynahumā lāʿibīn

مَا خَلَقۡنَـٰهُمَاۤ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٣٩

We have not created them but (to reveal) the truth, but most of them don’t know.

mā khalaqnāhumā illā bil-ḥaqi walākinna aktharahum lā yaʿlamūn

إِنَّ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ مِیقَـٰتُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِینَ ۝٤٠

Surely, the Day of judgment is the time appointed for all of them,

inna yawma l-faṣli mīqātuhum ajmaʿīn

یَوۡمَ لَا یُغۡنِی مَوۡلًى عَن مَّوۡلࣰى شَیۡءࣰا وَلَا هُمۡ یُنصَرُونَ ۝٤١

the Day when a near relative cannot avail a relative in anything, nor they can receive help

yawma lā yugh'nī mawlan ʿan mawlan shayan walā hum yunṣarūn

إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلرَّحِیمُ ۝٤٢

except those on whom Allah will show Mercy. Surely, He is the Mighty, the Merciful.

illā man raḥima l-lahu innahu huwa l-ʿazīzu l-raḥīm

3 Good and Evil Rewarded

إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ ٱلزَّقُّومِ ۝٤٣

Surely, the tree of Zaqqum (very bitter taste),

inna shajarata l-zaqūm

طَعَامُ ٱلۡأَثِیمِ ۝٤٤

will be the food of the sinners,

ṭaʿāmu l-athīm

كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ یَغۡلِی فِی ٱلۡبُطُونِ ۝٤٥

like boiling oil, it will boil in the bellies,

kal-muh'li yaghlī fī l-buṭūn

كَغَلۡیِ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ۝٤٦

like the boiling of scalding water.

kaghalyi l-ḥamīm

خُذُوهُ فَٱعۡتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَاۤءِ ٱلۡجَحِیمِ ۝٤٧

(It will be said): “Seize and drag him into the midst of blazing fire,

khudhūhu fa-iʿ'tilūhu ilā sawāi l-jaḥīm

ثُمَّ صُبُّوا۟ فَوۡقَ رَأۡسِهِۦ مِنۡ عَذَابِ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ۝٤٨

then pour from the punishment of boiling water over its head,

thumma ṣubbū fawqa rasihi min ʿadhābi l-ḥamīm

ذُقۡ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلۡكَرِیمُ ۝٤٩

taste you (this)! Surely, you were (pretending to be) the mighty, the noble!

dhuq innaka anta l-ʿazīzu l-karīm

إِنَّ هَـٰذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَمۡتَرُونَ ۝٥٠

Surely! This is what you used to doubt about it!”

inna hādhā mā kuntum bihi tamtarūn

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ فِی مَقَامٍ أَمِینࣲ ۝٥١

Surely! The pious will be in place of security (Paradise),

inna l-mutaqīna fī maqāmin amīni

فِی جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ ۝٥٢

among gardens and springs;

fī jannātin waʿuyūni

یَلۡبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسࣲ وَإِسۡتَبۡرَقࣲ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِینَ ۝٥٣

dressed in fine silk and also in thick silk, facing each other.

yalbasūna min sundusin wa-is'tabraqin mutaqābilīn

كَذَ ٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِینࣲ ۝٥٤

So (it will be), and We shall marry them to Houris (fair females) with wide lovely eyes.

kadhālika wazawwajnāhum biḥūrin ʿīni

یَدۡعُونَ فِیهَا بِكُلِّ فَـٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِینَ ۝٥٥

They will call in it for every kind of fruit in peace and security;

yadʿūna fīhā bikulli fākihatin āminīn

لَا یَذُوقُونَ فِیهَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ إِلَّا ٱلۡمَوۡتَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡجَحِیمِ ۝٥٦

they will never taste death in it except the first death (of this world), and He will save them from the punishment of the blazing fire

lā yadhūqūna fīhā l-mawta illā l-mawtata l-ūlā wawaqāhum ʿadhāba l-jaḥīm

فَضۡلࣰا مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ ۝٥٧

as a Bounty from your Lord! That will be the supreme success!

faḍlan min rabbika dhālika huwa l-fawzu l-ʿaẓīm

فَإِنَّمَا یَسَّرۡنَـٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَتَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٥٨

Certainly, We have made this (Qur’an) easy in your tongue in order that they may remember.

fa-innamā yassarnāhu bilisānika laʿallahum yatadhakkarūn

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ إِنَّهُم مُّرۡتَقِبُونَ ۝٥٩

Wait then (O Muhammad); surely, they too are waiting.
