Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

(and it will be said to them,) .This is the Fire you used to deny

hādhihi l-nāru allatī kuntum bihā tukadhibūn

أَفَسِحۡرٌ هَـٰذَاۤ أَمۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝١٥

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Is it then magic, or do you not see

afasiḥ'run hādhā am antum lā tub'ṣirūn

ٱصۡلَوۡهَا فَٱصۡبِرُوۤا۟ أَوۡ لَا تَصۡبِرُوا۟ سَوَاۤءٌ عَلَیۡكُمۡۖ إِنَّمَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ۝١٦

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Enter it. Now, whether you endure (it) patiently or impatiently, it is all the same for you; you are merely rewarded for what you used to do

iṣ'lawhā fa-iṣ'birū aw lā taṣbirū sawāon ʿalaykum innamā tuj'zawna mā kuntum taʿmalūn

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

They will snatch from one another (in a friendly manner) a glass (of wine) carrying neither absurd talk, nor something leading to sin

yatanāzaʿūna fīhā kasan lā laghwun fīhā walā tathīmu

۞ وَیَطُوفُ عَلَیۡهِمۡ غِلۡمَانࣱ لَّهُمۡ كَأَنَّهُمۡ لُؤۡلُؤࣱ مَّكۡنُونࣱ ۝٢٤

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

And their own serving boys will rotate around them, (who will be as neat and clean) as if they were hidden pearls

They will say, .Indeed we were afraid (of Allah‘s punishment) when we were amidst our family

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَیۡنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ ۝٢٧

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

but Allah did favour to us and saved us from the torment of Fire‘s scorching breath

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

We used to pray to Him before. He is surely the Most-Kind, the Very-Merciful

2 Opponents are doomed

فَذَكِّرۡ فَمَاۤ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنࣲ وَلَا مَجۡنُونٍ ۝٢٩

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

So keep reminding (them), because by the grace of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer, nor a mad man

fadhakkir famā anta biniʿ'mati rabbika bikāhinin walā majnūni

أَمۡ یَقُولُونَ شَاعِرࣱ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَیۡبَ ٱلۡمَنُونِ ۝٣٠

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Do they rather say, .He is a poet for whom we are awaiting the accident of death?

am yaqūlūna shāʿirun natarabbaṣu bihi rayba l-manūn

قُلۡ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّی مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُتَرَبِّصِینَ ۝٣١

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Say, .Wait! I am waiting with you, too

qul tarabbaṣū fa-innī maʿakum mina l-mutarabiṣīn

أَمۡ تَأۡمُرُهُمۡ أَحۡلَـٰمُهُم بِهَـٰذَاۤۚ أَمۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ طَاغُونَ ۝٣٢

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Is it their intellects that direct them to (say) this, or are they a rebellious people

am tamuruhum aḥlāmuhum bihādhā am hum qawmun ṭāghūn

أَمۡ یَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥۚ بَل لَّا یُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝٣٣

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Do they rather say, .He has forged it (the Qur‘an.).? No, but they do not believe

am yaqūlūna taqawwalahu bal lā yu'minūn

فَلۡیَأۡتُوا۟ بِحَدِیثࣲ مِّثۡلِهِۦۤ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَـٰدِقِینَ ۝٣٤

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

So, let them bring a discourse like this, if they are truthful

falyatū biḥadīthin mith'lihi in kānū ṣādiqīn

أَمۡ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنۡ غَیۡرِ شَیۡءٍ أَمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡخَـٰلِقُونَ ۝٣٥

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Is it that they are created by none, or are they themselves the creators

am khuliqū min ghayri shayin am humu l-khāliqūn

أَمۡ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَۚ بَل لَّا یُوقِنُونَ ۝٣٦

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or have they created the heavens and the earth? No, but they are sure of nothing

am khalaqū l-samāwāti wal-arḍa bal lā yūqinūn

أَمۡ عِندَهُمۡ خَزَاۤىِٕنُ رَبِّكَ أَمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡمُصَۣیۡطِرُونَ ۝٣٧

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or do they have the treasures of your Lord, or have they acquired control (over them)

am ʿindahum khazāinu rabbika am humu l-muṣayṭirūn

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ سُلَّمࣱ یَسۡتَمِعُونَ فِیهِۖ فَلۡیَأۡتِ مُسۡتَمِعُهُم بِسُلۡطَـٰنࣲ مُّبِینٍ ۝٣٨

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or have they a stairway (to the heavens) by means of which they listen (to the divine decrees)? If so, their listener must bring a clear proof

am lahum sullamun yastamiʿūna fīhi falyati mus'tamiʿuhum bisul'ṭānin mubīni

أَمۡ لَهُ ٱلۡبَنَـٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ ۝٣٩

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Is it that He has daughters and you have sons

am lahu l-banātu walakumu l-banūn

أَمۡ تَسۡءَلُهُمۡ أَجۡرࣰا فَهُم مِّن مَّغۡرَمࣲ مُّثۡقَلُونَ ۝٤٠

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or is it that you (O prophet) ask them for a fee, and therefore they are burdened with a liability

am tasaluhum ajran fahum min maghramin muth'qalūn

أَمۡ عِندَهُمُ ٱلۡغَیۡبُ فَهُمۡ یَكۡتُبُونَ ۝٤١

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or have they the knowledge of the Unseen, and they are recording it

am ʿindahumu l-ghaybu fahum yaktubūn

أَمۡ یُرِیدُونَ كَیۡدࣰاۖ فَٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلۡمَكِیدُونَ ۝٤٢

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or do they intend to plan to do harm (to the prophet)? Then the disbelievers themselves shall be harmed by the plan

am yurīdūna kaydan fa-alladhīna kafarū humu l-makīdūn

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ إِلَـٰهٌ غَیۡرُ ٱللَّهِۚ سُبۡحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا یُشۡرِكُونَ ۝٤٣

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Or do they have a god other than Allah? Pure is Allah from what they associate with Him

am lahum ilāhun ghayru l-lahi sub'ḥāna l-lahi ʿammā yush'rikūn

وَإِن یَرَوۡا۟ كِسۡفࣰا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ سَاقِطࣰا یَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابࣱ مَّرۡكُومࣱ ۝٤٤

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Even if they see a piece falling down from the sky, they would say, .It is a cumulated cloud

wa-in yaraw kis'fan mina l-samāi sāqiṭan yaqūlū saḥābun markūmu

فَذَرۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ یُلَـٰقُوا۟ یَوۡمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِی فِیهِ یُصۡعَقُونَ ۝٤٥

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

So, leave them alone until they face their Day, in which they will be turned unconscious

fadharhum ḥattā yulāqū yawmahumu alladhī fīhi yuṣ'ʿaqūn

یَوۡمَ لَا یُغۡنِی عَنۡهُمۡ كَیۡدُهُمۡ شَیۡءࣰا وَلَا هُمۡ یُنصَرُونَ ۝٤٦

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

the Day their planning will not benefit them in the least, nor will they be helped

yawma lā yugh'nī ʿanhum kayduhum shayan walā hum yunṣarūn

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِینَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابࣰا دُونَ ذَ ٰلِكَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٤٧

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

And for those who did wrong there is another punishment before that, but most of them do not know

wa-inna lilladhīna ẓalamū ʿadhāban dūna dhālika walākinna aktharahum lā yaʿlamūn

وَٱصۡبِرۡ لِحُكۡمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعۡیُنِنَاۖ وَسَبِّحۡ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّكَ حِینَ تَقُومُ ۝٤٨

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

And (O Prophet) be patient about the decision of your Lord, because you are in front of Our Eyes. And proclaim the purity of your Lord along with His praise when you stand (in Prayer)

wa-iṣ'bir liḥuk'mi rabbika fa-innaka bi-aʿyuninā wasabbiḥ biḥamdi rabbika ḥīna taqūm

وَمِنَ ٱلَّیۡلِ فَسَبِّحۡهُ وَإِدۡبَـٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝٤٩

Muhammad Taqi Usmani

And, in parts of night too, proclaim His purity, and at the time of setting of the stars

wamina al-layli fasabbiḥ'hu wa-id'bāra l-nujūm
