The Event, The Inevitable, That Which is Coming — Abdul Hye Translation – Parallel Quran

1 Three Classes of Men

۞ إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلۡوَاقِعَةُ ۝١

When the event (the Day of Resurrection) will befall,

idhā waqaʿati l-wāqiʿat

لَیۡسَ لِوَقۡعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ۝٢

there will be no denying of its befalling,

laysa liwaqʿatihā kādhibatu

خَافِضَةࣱ رَّافِعَةٌ ۝٣

it will bring low (to some), it will exalt (for others).

khāfiḍatun rāfiʿatu

إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ رَجࣰّا ۝٤

When the earth will be shaken with a terrible shake,

idhā rujjati l-arḍu rajja

وَبُسَّتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ بَسࣰّا ۝٥

and the mountains will be powdered to dust,

wabussati l-jibālu bassa

فَكَانَتۡ هَبَاۤءࣰ مُّنۢبَثࣰّا ۝٦

so that they will become floating dust particles.

fakānat habāan munbatha

وَكُنتُمۡ أَزۡوَ ٰجࣰا ثَلَـٰثَةࣰ ۝٧

And then you all will be in 3 kinds (separate groups):

wakuntum azwājan thalāthata

فَأَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡمَیۡمَنَةِ مَاۤ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡمَیۡمَنَةِ ۝٨

those on the right hand (receive their records in right hands) who will be those on the right hand (will go to Paradise);

fa-aṣḥābu l-maymanati mā aṣḥābu l-maymanat

وَأَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡءَمَةِ مَاۤ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡءَمَةِ ۝٩

and those on the left hand (receive their records in left hands) who will be those on the left hand (will go to hell);

wa-aṣḥābu l-mashamati mā aṣḥābu l-mashamat

وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ۝١٠

and those foremost (in Islamic faith) will be foremost (in Paradise).

wal-sābiqūna l-sābiqūn

أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبُونَ ۝١١

Those will be nearest (to Allah),

ulāika l-muqarabūn

فِی جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِیمِ ۝١٢

in the gardens of delight (Paradise).

fī jannāti l-naʿīm

ثُلَّةࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ ۝١٣

A most of them will be from the first generations (who embraced Islam)

thullatun mina l-awalīn

وَقَلِیلࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡءَاخِرِینَ ۝١٤

and a few will be from the later generations.

waqalīlun mina l-ākhirīn

عَلَىٰ سُرُرࣲ مَّوۡضُونَةࣲ ۝١٥

(They will be) on thrones of gold and precious stones,

muttakiīna ʿalayhā mutaqābilīn

مُّتَّكِءِینَ عَلَیۡهَا مُتَقَـٰبِلِینَ ۝١٦

reclining on them face to face,

Muttaki-eena AAalayha mutaqabileena

یَطُوفُ عَلَیۡهِمۡ وِلۡدَ ٰنࣱ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ۝١٧

immortal youths will go round serving them

yaṭūfu ʿalayhim wil'dānun mukhalladūn

بِأَكۡوَابࣲ وَأَبَارِیقَ وَكَأۡسࣲ مِّن مَّعِینࣲ ۝١٨

with cups, jugs, and glasses of flowing wine,

bi-akwābin wa-abārīqa wakasin min maʿīni

لَّا یُصَدَّعُونَ عَنۡهَا وَلَا یُنزِفُونَ ۝١٩

from where they will neither get any pain of the head, nor they will get any intoxication.

lā yuṣaddaʿūna ʿanhā walā yunzifūn

وَفَـٰكِهَةࣲ مِّمَّا یَتَخَیَّرُونَ ۝٢٠

(They will have) fruits of their own choice

wafākihatin mimmā yatakhayyarūn

وَلَحۡمِ طَیۡرࣲ مِّمَّا یَشۡتَهُونَ ۝٢١

and the flesh of fowls that they may desire,

walaḥmi ṭayrin mimmā yashtahūn

وَحُورٌ عِینࣱ ۝٢٢

and Huris (chaste virgins) with wide lovely eyes,

waḥūrun ʿīnu

كَأَمۡثَـٰلِ ٱللُّؤۡلُوِٕ ٱلۡمَكۡنُونِ ۝٢٣

like guarded pearls,

ka-amthāli l-lu'lu-i l-maknūn

جَزَاۤءَۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ ۝٢٤

as a reward for what they used to do (good deeds).

jazāan bimā kānū yaʿmalūn

لَا یَسۡمَعُونَ فِیهَا لَغۡوࣰا وَلَا تَأۡثِیمًا ۝٢٥

They will neither hear any vain talk therein nor any sinful speech,

lā yasmaʿūna fīhā laghwan walā tathīma

إِلَّا قِیلࣰا سَلَـٰمࣰا سَلَـٰمࣰا ۝٢٦

but the saying of Salam! Salam! (greetings with peace)!

illā qīlan salāman salāma

وَأَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡیَمِینِ مَاۤ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٢٧

And those on the right hand who will be those on the right hand.

wa-aṣḥābu l-yamīni mā aṣḥābu l-yamīn

فِی سِدۡرࣲ مَّخۡضُودࣲ ۝٢٨

(They will be) among thornless lote-trees,

وَطَلۡحࣲ مَّنضُودࣲ ۝٢٩

وَمَاۤءࣲ مَّسۡكُوبࣲ ۝٣١

and by water flowing constantly,

wamāin maskūbi

وَفَـٰكِهَةࣲ كَثِیرَةࣲ ۝٣٢

and fruit in plenty

wafākihatin kathīrati

لَّا مَقۡطُوعَةࣲ وَلَا مَمۡنُوعَةࣲ ۝٣٣

whose season is not limited and their supply will not be cut off,

lā maqṭūʿatin walā mamnūʿati

وَفُرُشࣲ مَّرۡفُوعَةٍ ۝٣٤

and on high raised couches or thrones.

wafurushin marfūʿati

إِنَّاۤ أَنشَأۡنَـٰهُنَّ إِنشَاۤءࣰ ۝٣٥

Surely, We have created them (maidens) of special creation

innā anshanāhunna inshāa

فَجَعَلۡنَـٰهُنَّ أَبۡكَارًا ۝٣٦

and made them virgins

fajaʿalnāhunna abkāra

عُرُبًا أَتۡرَابࣰا ۝٣٧

loving (their husbands only), equal in age,

li-aṣḥābi l-yamīn

لِّأَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٣٨

for those on the right hand.

Li-as-habi alyameeni

2 The Guilty

ثُلَّةࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ ۝٣٩

A large number will be from the first generation (who embraced Islam)

thullatun mina l-awalīn

وَثُلَّةࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡءَاخِرِینَ ۝٤٠

and a large number will be from the later generations.

wathullatun mina l-ākhirīn

وَأَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَاۤ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ۝٤١

And those on the left hand - will be those on the left hand.

wa-aṣḥābu l-shimāli mā aṣḥābu l-shimāl

فِی سَمُومࣲ وَحَمِیمࣲ ۝٤٢

(They will be) in fierce hot wind and boiling water,

fī samūmin waḥamīmi

وَظِلࣲّ مِّن یَحۡمُومࣲ ۝٤٣

and in the shadow of black smoke,

waẓillin min yaḥmūmi

لَّا بَارِدࣲ وَلَا كَرِیمٍ ۝٤٤

(that shadow is) neither cool, nor good.

lā bāridin walā karīmi

إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوا۟ قَبۡلَ ذَ ٰلِكَ مُتۡرَفِینَ ۝٤٥

Surely, they were indulged in luxury before,

innahum kānū qabla dhālika mut'rafīn

وَكَانُوا۟ یُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلۡحِنثِ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٤٦

and were persisting in great sin

wakānū yuṣirrūna ʿalā l-ḥinthi l-ʿaẓīm

وَكَانُوا۟ یَقُولُونَ أَىِٕذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابࣰا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبۡعُوثُونَ ۝٤٧

and they used to say: “When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be resurrected?

wakānū yaqūlūna a-idhā mit'nā wakunnā turāban waʿiẓāman a-innā lamabʿūthūn

أَوَ ءَابَاۤؤُنَا ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ ۝٤٨

and also our forefathers?”

awaābāunā l-awalūn

قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ وَٱلۡءَاخِرِینَ ۝٤٩

Say (O Muhammad): “Surely, those of old, and those of later times,

qul inna l-awalīna wal-ākhirīn

لَمَجۡمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِیقَـٰتِ یَوۡمࣲ مَّعۡلُومࣲ ۝٥٠

all will surely be gathered together to an appointed meeting of well known Day.

lamajmūʿūna ilā mīqāti yawmin maʿlūmi

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ أَیُّهَا ٱلضَّاۤلُّونَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٥١

Then surely, you the erring-ones, the deniers (of Resurrection),

thumma innakum ayyuhā l-ḍālūna l-mukadhibūn

لَءَاكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرࣲ مِّن زَقُّومࣲ ۝٥٢

surely you will eat of trees of Zaqqum,

laākilūna min shajarin min zaqqūmi

فَمَالِءُونَ مِنۡهَا ٱلۡبُطُونَ ۝٥٣

then you will fill your bellies with it,

famāliūna min'hā l-buṭūn

فَشَـٰرِبُونَ عَلَیۡهِ مِنَ ٱلۡحَمِیمِ ۝٥٤

and drink from the boiling water on it,

fashāribūna ʿalayhi mina l-ḥamīm

فَشَـٰرِبُونَ شُرۡبَ ٱلۡهِیمِ ۝٥٥

yet, you will drink like thirsty camels!”

fashāribūna shur'ba l-hīm

هَـٰذَا نُزُلُهُمۡ یَوۡمَ ٱلدِّینِ ۝٥٦

That will be their entertainment on the Day of Resurrection.

hādhā nuzuluhum yawma l-dīn

نَحۡنُ خَلَقۡنَـٰكُمۡ فَلَوۡلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ۝٥٧

We created you, then why do you not believe?

naḥnu khalaqnākum falawlā tuṣaddiqūn

أَفَرَءَیۡتُم مَّا تُمۡنُونَ ۝٥٨

You see what you emit (semen).

afara-aytum mā tum'nūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَخۡلُقُونَهُۥۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡخَـٰلِقُونَ ۝٥٩

Is it you who create it (make this semen into a human), or are We the creator?

a-antum takhluqūnahu am naḥnu l-khāliqūn

نَحۡنُ قَدَّرۡنَا بَیۡنَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَسۡبُوقِینَ ۝٦٠

We have decreed the death among you and We are not unable

naḥnu qaddarnā baynakumu l-mawta wamā naḥnu bimasbūqīn

عَلَىٰۤ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمۡثَـٰلَكُمۡ وَنُنشِئَكُمۡ فِی مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٦١

to transfigure you by others like yourselves and creates you in forms that you don’t know.

walaqad ʿalim'tumu l-nashata l-ūlā falawlā tadhakkarūn

وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلنَّشۡأَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ فَلَوۡلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٦٢

And indeed, you know the first form of creation (of Adam), why then do you not remember or take heed?

Walaqad AAalimtumu alnnash-ata al-oola falawla tathakkaroona

أَفَرَءَیۡتُم مَّا تَحۡرُثُونَ ۝٦٣

Do you see (the seed) that you sow (in the ground)?

afara-aytum mā taḥruthūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَزۡرَعُونَهُۥۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلزَّ ٰرِعُونَ ۝٦٤

Is it you who make it grow, or are We the grower?

a-antum tazraʿūnahu am naḥnu l-zāriʿūn

لَوۡ نَشَاۤءُ لَجَعَلۡنَـٰهُ حُطَـٰمࣰا فَظَلۡتُمۡ تَفَكَّهُونَ ۝٦٥

If We willed, We could surely make it into dry pieces and you would be regretful:

law nashāu lajaʿalnāhu ḥuṭāman faẓaltum tafakkahūn

إِنَّا لَمُغۡرَمُونَ ۝٦٦

(saying): “We are indeed ruined,

innā lamugh'ramūn

بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ ۝٦٧

nay, but we are deprived (from the results of our work)!”

bal naḥnu maḥrūmūn

أَفَرَءَیۡتُمُ ٱلۡمَاۤءَ ٱلَّذِی تَشۡرَبُونَ ۝٦٨

Do you see the water that you drink?

afara-aytumu l-māa alladhī tashrabūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنزَلۡتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُزۡنِ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنزِلُونَ ۝٦٩

Is it you who cause it to come down from the rain clouds or are We Who cause it to come down?

a-antum anzaltumūhu mina l-muz'ni am naḥnu l-munzilūn

لَوۡ نَشَاۤءُ جَعَلۡنَـٰهُ أُجَاجࣰا فَلَوۡلَا تَشۡكُرُونَ ۝٧٠

If We willed, We could make it salty (undrinkable). Why then do you not give thanks (to Allah)?

law nashāu jaʿalnāhu ujājan falawlā tashkurūn

أَفَرَءَیۡتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِی تُورُونَ ۝٧١

Do you see the fire which you kindle?

afara-aytumu l-nāra allatī tūrūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنشَأۡتُمۡ شَجَرَتَهَاۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنشِءُونَ ۝٧٢

Is it you who made the tree to grow, or are We the grower?

a-antum anshatum shajaratahā am naḥnu l-munshiūn

نَحۡنُ جَعَلۡنَـٰهَا تَذۡكِرَةࣰ وَمَتَـٰعࣰا لِّلۡمُقۡوِینَ ۝٧٣

We have made it a reminder (of the hellfire in the Hereafter); and an article of use for the travelers.

naḥnu jaʿalnāhā tadhkiratan wamatāʿan lil'muq'wīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٧٤

Then glorify the name of your Lord, the great.

fasabbiḥ bi-is'mi rabbika l-ʿaẓīm

3 Judgment is Inevitable

۞ فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَوَ ٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝٧٥

Surely I swear by the setting of the stars,

falā uq'simu bimawāqiʿi l-nujūm

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمࣱ لَّوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عَظِیمٌ ۝٧٦

and surely, that is a great oath, if you know,

wa-innahu laqasamun law taʿlamūna ʿaẓīmu

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرۡءَانࣱ كَرِیمࣱ ۝٧٧

surely, this is indeed a honorable recital (the Qur’an)

innahu laqur'ānun karīmu

فِی كِتَـٰبࣲ مَّكۡنُونࣲ ۝٧٨

in a book well-guarded (with Allah),

fī kitābin maknūni

لَّا یَمَسُّهُۥۤ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُطَهَّرُونَ ۝٧٩

which none can touch it (the Qur’an with Allah) except the purified (angels),

lā yamassuhu illā l-muṭaharūn

تَنزِیلࣱ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٨٠

a revelation (this Qur’an) from the Lord of the worlds.

tanzīlun min rabbi l-ʿālamīn

أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِیثِ أَنتُم مُّدۡهِنُونَ ۝٨١

Is it such a talk (this Qur’an) that you (disbelievers) deny

afabihādhā l-ḥadīthi antum mud'hinūn

وَتَجۡعَلُونَ رِزۡقَكُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٨٢

and (instead of thanking Allah for) your provision He gives you, you deny (Him)?

watajʿalūna riz'qakum annakum tukadhibūn

فَلَوۡلَاۤ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلۡحُلۡقُومَ ۝٨٣

Then why do you not (intervene) when (the soul of a dying person) reaches the throat

falawlā idhā balaghati l-ḥul'qūm

وَأَنتُمۡ حِینَىِٕذࣲ تَنظُرُونَ ۝٨٤

while you are looking at that moment,

wa-antum ḥīna-idhin tanẓurūn

وَنَحۡنُ أَقۡرَبُ إِلَیۡهِ مِنكُمۡ وَلَـٰكِن لَّا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٨٥

but We are nearer to him than you, but you don’t see (Allah).

wanaḥnu aqrabu ilayhi minkum walākin lā tub'ṣirūn

فَلَوۡلَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ غَیۡرَ مَدِینِینَ ۝٨٦

Why do you not, if you are exempt from the reckoning and recompense,

falawlā in kuntum ghayra madīnīn

تَرۡجِعُونَهَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ ۝٨٧

bring back the soul (to its body) if you are truthful?

tarjiʿūnahā in kuntum ṣādiqīn

فَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِینَ ۝٨٨

Then, if the dying person be of those brought near (to Allah),

fa-ammā in kāna mina l-muqarabīn

فَرَوۡحࣱ وَرَیۡحَانࣱ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِیمࣲ ۝٨٩

for him there is rest and provision, and a garden of delights (Paradise).

farawḥun warayḥānun wajannatu naʿīmi

وَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٩٠

Yet if the dying person be of those on the right hand,

wa-ammā in kāna min aṣḥābi l-yamīn

فَسَلَـٰمࣱ لَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٩١

then (there is greeting) ‘Peace be upon you’ for those from those on the right hand.

fasalāmun laka min aṣḥābi l-yamīn

وَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ ٱلضَّاۤلِّینَ ۝٩٢

Yet if the dying person is one of the denying (of the Resurrection), the erring

wa-ammā in kāna mina l-mukadhibīna l-ḍālīn

فَنُزُلࣱ مِّنۡ حَمِیمࣲ ۝٩٣

then (for him there) is entertainment from boiling water,

fanuzulun min ḥamīmi

وَتَصۡلِیَةُ جَحِیمٍ ۝٩٤

and burning in hellfire.

wataṣliyatu jaḥīmi

إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلۡیَقِینِ ۝٩٥

Surely, this is an absolute truth with certainty.

inna hādhā lahuwa ḥaqqu l-yaqīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٩٦

So glorify with praises the name of your Lord, the greatest.
