Smoke, The Evident Smoke — Ahmed Hulusi Translation – Parallel Quran

1 Lighter Punishment followed by Severer

Ha (life), Meem (knowledge – the reality of Muhammad);

وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِینِ ۝٢

The Clear Book (the apparent sunnatullah and the knowledge of the reality).

wal-kitābi l-mubīn

إِنَّاۤ أَنزَلۡنَـٰهُ فِی لَیۡلَةࣲ مُّبَـٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِینَ ۝٣

We disclosed it during a blessed night (an instance of the experience of non-existence)! We are the warners!

innā anzalnāhu fī laylatin mubārakatin innā kunnā mundhirīn

فِیهَا یُفۡرَقُ كُلُّ أَمۡرٍ حَكِیمٍ ۝٤

The wisdom pertaining to all affairs are realized in it (in that state of ‘nonexistence’);

fīhā yuf'raqu kullu amrin ḥakīmi

أَمۡرࣰا مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۤۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِینَ ۝٥

By a command from Us! We are the disclosers (of the Rasuls)!

amran min ʿindinā innā kunnā mur'silīn

رَحۡمَةࣰ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِیعُ ٱلۡعَلِیمُ ۝٦

As grace from the Rabb (of those who are disclosed)! Indeed, He is HU, the Sami, the Aleem.

raḥmatan min rabbika innahu huwa l-samīʿu l-ʿalīm

رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَاۤۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِینَ ۝٧

The Rabb of the heavens, the earth and everything in between... If you are of those who have attained 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 god, only HU, who gives life and takes life! He is your Rabb and the Rabb of your forefathers!

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

بَلۡ هُمۡ فِی شَكࣲّ یَلۡعَبُونَ ۝٩

But no, they are in doubt, amusing themselves (with the worldly life).

bal hum fī shakkin yalʿabūn

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ یَوۡمَ تَأۡتِی ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ بِدُخَانࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ۝١٠

Watch for the day (the time when the reality of man will become apparent) when the sky will bring a visible smoke (dukhan).

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

یَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَـٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِیمࣱ ۝١١

It will encompass the people! It is a severe suffering (for not having realized and fulfilled the requisites of the reality)!

yaghshā l-nāsa hādhā ʿadhābun alīmu

رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝١٢

“Our Rabb! Take us out of this state of suffering; we are indeed believers (now)!”

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

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مُّبِینࣱ ۝١٣

How is it possible for them to be contemplating and taking a lesson now? When a clear Rasul had already come to them...

annā lahumu l-dhik'rā waqad jāahum rasūlun mubīnu

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡا۟ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمࣱ مَّجۡنُونٌ ۝١٤

But they turned away from him and said, “He is a well instructed madman (possessed).”

thumma tawallaw ʿanhu waqālū muʿallamun majnūnu

إِنَّا كَاشِفُوا۟ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِیلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَاۤىِٕدُونَ ۝١٥

Indeed, We will lighten the suffering a little... (But) you will return to your old state.

innā kāshifū l-ʿadhābi qalīlan innakum ʿāidūn

یَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰۤ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ ۝١٦

At that time (when the sky brings the visible smoke) We will seize with the greatest seizure... Indeed, We take retribution for all offences!

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

۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ كَرِیمٌ ۝١٧

Indeed, We had tried the people of Pharaoh before them with difficulties... A karim (noble and generous) Rasul had come 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 to me... Indeed, I am a trustworthy Rasul...”

an addū ilayya ʿibāda l-lahi innī lakum rasūlun amīnu

وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّیۤ ءَاتِیكُم بِسُلۡطَـٰنࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ۝١٩

“Do not be arrogant towards Allah (do not defy the Rasul)... I have presented to you a clear and undeniable proof.”

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

وَإِنِّی عُذۡتُ بِرَبِّی وَرَبِّكُمۡ أَن تَرۡجُمُونِ ۝٢٠

“And I have sought refuge in my Rabb (the Names comprising my essence) and your Rabb (your essence) from your desire to stone me to death.”

wa-innī ʿudh'tu birabbī warabbikum an tarjumūn

وَإِن لَّمۡ تُؤۡمِنُوا۟ لِی فَٱعۡتَزِلُونِ ۝٢١

“If you do not believe me then at least leave me alone!”

wa-in lam tu'minū lī fa-iʿ'tazilūn

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥۤ أَنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ قَوۡمࣱ مُّجۡرِمُونَ ۝٢٢

(Moses) turned to his Rabb, “These are guilty (dualist) people!”

fadaʿā rabbahu anna hāulāi qawmun muj'rimūn

فَأَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِی لَیۡلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ۝٢٣

(His Rabb said), “Set out with My servants in the night (take them away)... Indeed, you will be pursued.”

fa-asri biʿibādī laylan innakum muttabaʿūn

وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندࣱ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ۝٢٤

“Leave the sea in its open state... Indeed, they are an army to be drowned.”

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

كَمۡ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ ۝٢٥

They left behind many gardens and springs.

kam tarakū min jannātin waʿuyūni

وَزُرُوعࣲ وَمَقَامࣲ كَرِیمࣲ ۝٢٦

And many crops and beautiful sites...

wazurūʿin wamaqāmin karīmi

وَنَعۡمَةࣲ كَانُوا۟ فِیهَا فَـٰكِهِینَ ۝٢٧

And the many blessings with which they found comfort and pleasure!

wanaʿmatin kānū fīhā fākihīn

كَذَ ٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَـٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِینَ ۝٢٨

Thus it is... And we left them for another people to inherit.

kadhālika wa-awrathnāhā qawman ākharīn

فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِینَ ۝٢٩

And the heaven and the earth did not weep for them (for those who drowned in corporeality) and nor were they looked upon (acknowledged).

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

2 Good and Evil Rewarded

وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّیۡنَا بَنِیۤ إِسۡرَ ٰۤءِیلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِینِ ۝٣٠

Indeed, We saved the children of Israel from that humiliating suffering...

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

مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِیࣰا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِینَ ۝٣١

From Pharaoh (who symbolizes the ego)! Indeed, he was arrogant and a squanderer (who wasted his inherent essential forces).

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

وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَـٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٣٢

Indeed, We chose them (the children of Israel) over all the worlds (people) with the knowledge!

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

وَءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡءَایَـٰتِ مَا فِیهِ بَلَـٰۤؤࣱا۟ مُّبِینٌ ۝٣٣

And We gave them signs in which there was a clear trial.

waātaynāhum mina l-āyāti mā fīhi balāon mubīnu

إِنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ لَیَقُولُونَ ۝٣٤

Indeed, they said:

inna hāulāi layaqūlūn

إِنۡ هِیَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِینَ ۝٣٥

“There is nothing further than the first death; we are not to be resurrected after death!”

in hiya illā mawtatunā l-ūlā wamā naḥnu bimunsharīn

Are they better or the people of Tubba’ (the ruler of Yemen) and those before them? We destroyed them! Indeed, they were guilty (dualists).

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, the earth and everything in between for play...

wamā khalaqnā l-samāwāti wal-arḍa wamā baynahumā lāʿibīn

مَا خَلَقۡنَـٰهُمَاۤ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٣٩

We created only as the Truth (the manifestations of Our Names)! But the majority of them do not know (this Truth).

إِنَّ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ مِیقَـٰتُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِینَ ۝٤٠

They will all be gathered at the specified time of differentiation.

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

Indeed, the tree of Zaqqum,

inna shajarata l-zaqūm

طَعَامُ ٱلۡأَثِیمِ ۝٤٤

Is food for the denier (who denies his essential reality)!

ṭaʿāmu l-athīm

كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ یَغۡلِی فِی ٱلۡبُطُونِ ۝٤٥

It is like molten metal; it boils in their bellies.

Dressed in fine silk and brocade, facing one another.

yalbasūna min sundusin wa-is'tabraqin mutaqābilīn

كَذَ ٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِینࣲ ۝٥٤

Thus it is... We partnered them (the conscious humans manifesting the forces of the Names) with houris (bodies with superior and clear vision [heart])!

یَدۡعُونَ فِیهَا بِكُلِّ فَـٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِینَ ۝٥٥

They will not taste death therein except the first death (they are immortal)! And He will have protected them from the suffering of burning.

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

فَإِنَّمَا یَسَّرۡنَـٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَتَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٥٨

And We eased the Quran in your language, that perhaps they may reflect on it.

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ إِنَّهُم مُّرۡتَقِبُونَ ۝٥٩

So, observe and wait! Indeed, they too are waiting.
