If you want to be absolutely sure, (consider this): He is the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between

44:8

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

44:9

بَلۡ هُمۡ فِی شَكࣲّ یَلۡعَبُونَ ۝٩

Watch out for the day when the sky would emit (vast volumes of) visible smoke

یَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَـٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِیمࣱ ۝١١

Dr. Munir Munshey

It would enshroud people. That is a painful punishment

44:12

رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝١٢

Dr. Munir Munshey

(They would cry out). "Our Lord! Release us from the painful punishment. We would (now) definitely become the believers."

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

44:13

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مُّبِینࣱ ۝١٣

Dr. Munir Munshey

Why this change of heart? (Earlier) the messenger had come to them, and had explained matters to them clearly. (But they rejected him)

annā lahumu l-dhik'rā waqad jāahum rasūlun mubīnu

44:14

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡا۟ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمࣱ مَّجۡنُونٌ ۝١٤

Dr. Munir Munshey

At that time, they turned away and said, "He is a lunatic being coached by others."

إِنَّا كَاشِفُوا۟ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِیلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَاۤىِٕدُونَ ۝١٥

If We withdraw your suffering a little, you would revert to your evil ways

Dr. Munir Munshey

The day (of Judgment) is when We will strike that severe blow; We would exact a real revenge

44:17

۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَاۤءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ كَرِیمٌ ۝١٧

Dr. Munir Munshey

Prior to them, We had certainly put the pharaoh and his people through a test; a noble messenger came to them

walaqad fatannā qablahum qawma fir'ʿawna wajāahum rasūlun karīmu

44:18

أَنۡ أَدُّوۤا۟ إِلَیَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّی لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِینࣱ ۝١٨

(He said), "Release the servants of Allah into my care. I am certainly the trustworthy messenger (sent) towards you."

وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّیۤ ءَاتِیكُم بِسُلۡطَـٰنࣲ مُّبِینࣲ ۝١٩

Dr. Munir Munshey

"Do not exceed (the bounds), and do not deem yourselves exalted before Allah. In fact, I have brought you the clear proofs."

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

44:20

وَإِنِّی عُذۡتُ بِرَبِّی وَرَبِّكُمۡ أَن تَرۡجُمُونِ ۝٢٠

"I have sought refuge with my Lord, (Who is also) your Lord, should you stone me (to death)."

44:21

وَإِن لَّمۡ تُؤۡمِنُوا۟ لِی فَٱعۡتَزِلُونِ ۝٢١

Dr. Munir Munshey

"If you refuse to believe, then stay away and leave me alone."

وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندࣱ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ۝٢٤

Dr. Munir Munshey

"Leave the sea as it is _ (parted); their entire army shall drown."

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

44:25

كَمۡ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ ۝٢٥

Dr. Munir Munshey

(Pity)! Those who drowned left behind so many gardens and springs

kam tarakū min jannātin waʿuyūni

44:26

وَزُرُوعࣲ وَمَقَامࣲ كَرِیمࣲ ۝٢٦

Dr. Munir Munshey

Fields and magnificent palaces

44:27

وَنَعۡمَةࣲ كَانُوا۟ فِیهَا فَـٰكِهِینَ ۝٢٧

Dr. Munir Munshey

(And the comfort and luxuries) _ the riches they used to relish

44:28

كَذَ ٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَـٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِینَ ۝٢٨

Dr. Munir Munshey

In this manner, We caused other nations to inherit (those riches)

kadhālika wa-awrathnāhā qawman ākharīn

44:29

فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِینَ ۝٢٩

Dr. Munir Munshey

And nobody _ neither the sky nor the earth _ shed any tears upon their demise; nor were they granted a respite

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

44:30

وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّیۡنَا بَنِیۤ إِسۡرَ ٰۤءِیلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِینِ ۝٣٠

Dr. Munir Munshey

We certainly rescued the children of Israel from the abusive and humiliating tyranny

44:31

مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِیࣰا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِینَ ۝٣١

Dr. Munir Munshey

Of the pharaoh! Among those who exceeded the bounds and transgressed, he was indeed, one of the worst

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

44:32

وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَـٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٣٢

Dr. Munir Munshey

Of course, We chose them purposely over all others

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

44:33

وَءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡءَایَـٰتِ مَا فِیهِ بَلَـٰۤؤࣱا۟ مُّبِینٌ ۝٣٣

Dr. Munir Munshey

And We displayed to them Our signs. That was an obvious test for them

waātaynāhum mina l-āyāti mā fīhi balāon mubīnu

44:34

إِنَّ هَـٰۤؤُلَاۤءِ لَیَقُولُونَ ۝٣٤

Dr. Munir Munshey

These people assert (so emphatically)

inna hāulāi layaqūlūn

44:35

إِنۡ هِیَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِینَ ۝٣٥

Dr. Munir Munshey

"Our death here in this life is it _ (the end), and there is nothing (beyond). We will not be resurrected."

in hiya illā mawtatunā l-ūlā wamā naḥnu bimunsharīn

44:36

فَأۡتُوا۟ بِءَابَاۤىِٕنَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ ۝٣٦

Dr. Munir Munshey

"Bring our forefathers back (to life), if you are truthful!"

fatū biābāinā in kuntum ṣādiqīn

44:37

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

Dr. Munir Munshey

Are they better than the people of ´Tubbah´, or those before them? We destroyed them! All of them were really criminals

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

44:38

وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَیۡنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِینَ ۝٣٨

Dr. Munir Munshey

We did not create the heavens and the earth and everything else just as a pastime

wamā khalaqnā l-samāwāti wal-arḍa wamā baynahumā lāʿibīn

44:39

مَا خَلَقۡنَـٰهُمَاۤ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٣٩

Dr. Munir Munshey

We did not create the heavens and the earth except with a purpose _ (and for a specified time). But most of them (just) do not understand

mā khalaqnāhumā illā bil-ḥaqi walākinna aktharahum lā yaʿlamūn

44:40

إِنَّ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ مِیقَـٰتُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِینَ ۝٤٠

Dr. Munir Munshey

The scheduled time for (the resurrection of) all of them together, is the day of decision

inna yawma l-faṣli mīqātuhum ajmaʿīn

44:41

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

Dr. Munir Munshey

That day, nobody would lend a bit of support to his friend or kin. Nobody shall receive any help (at all)

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

44:42

إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلرَّحِیمُ ۝٤٢

Dr. Munir Munshey

Except the one, upon whom Allah bestows (special) mercy! He is the Mighty, the most Merciful

44:43

إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ ٱلزَّقُّومِ ۝٤٣

Shall be the food for the sinners

44:45

كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ یَغۡلِی فِی ٱلۡبُطُونِ ۝٤٥

Dr. Munir Munshey

Like boiling oil, it shall burn the inside of their bellies

kal-muh'li yaghlī fī l-buṭūn

44:46

كَغَلۡیِ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ۝٤٦

Dr. Munir Munshey

Just as boiling water scalds

kaghalyi l-ḥamīm

44:47

خُذُوهُ فَٱعۡتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَاۤءِ ٱلۡجَحِیمِ ۝٤٧

Dr. Munir Munshey

(The command would be): grab him and drag him right into the thick of the blazing fire

khudhūhu fa-iʿ'tilūhu ilā sawāi l-jaḥīm

44:48

ثُمَّ صُبُّوا۟ فَوۡقَ رَأۡسِهِۦ مِنۡ عَذَابِ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ۝٤٨

Dr. Munir Munshey

Then pour (the steaming hot water) over his head. The (torture and) torment of the boiling water

thumma ṣubbū fawqa rasihi min ʿadhābi l-ḥamīm

44:49

ذُقۡ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ ٱلۡكَرِیمُ ۝٤٩

Dr. Munir Munshey

Taste this! (Now), aren´t you the mighty and the noble

dhuq innaka anta l-ʿazīzu l-karīm

44:50

إِنَّ هَـٰذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَمۡتَرُونَ ۝٥٠

Dr. Munir Munshey

This is exactly what you used to doubt

inna hādhā mā kuntum bihi tamtarūn

44:51

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ فِی مَقَامٍ أَمِینࣲ ۝٥١

Dr. Munir Munshey

The righteous would live in a peaceful place, (serene and) secure

inna l-mutaqīna fī maqāmin amīni

44:52

فِی جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ ۝٥٢

Dr. Munir Munshey

Amidst gardens and springs

fī jannātin waʿuyūni

44:53

یَلۡبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسࣲ وَإِسۡتَبۡرَقࣲ مُّتَقَـٰبِلِینَ ۝٥٣

Dr. Munir Munshey

Dressed in lush luxurious brocade, they shall sit facing each other

yalbasūna min sundusin wa-is'tabraqin mutaqābilīn

44:54

كَذَ ٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِینࣲ ۝٥٤

Dr. Munir Munshey

Thus shall it be! And We shall wed them to the fair females with big beautiful eyes

kadhālika wazawwajnāhum biḥūrin ʿīni

44:55

یَدۡعُونَ فِیهَا بِكُلِّ فَـٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِینَ ۝٥٥

Dr. Munir Munshey

In paradise, they shall ask for, (and get), all sorts of sumptuous delights; (they shall live) in peace (and bliss)

yadʿūna fīhā bikulli fākihatin āminīn

44:56

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

Dr. Munir Munshey

There, they shall never ever face death, other than their death in the previous life; and He will spare them the punishment of the hellfire

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

44:57

فَضۡلࣰا مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ ۝٥٧

فَإِنَّمَا یَسَّرۡنَـٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَتَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٥٨

Dr. Munir Munshey

Certainly! We have rendered this Qur´an easy for your tongue. Perhaps they would heed its message

44:59

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ إِنَّهُم مُّرۡتَقِبُونَ ۝٥٩

Dr. Munir Munshey
