نَحۡنُ خَلَقۡنَـٰكُمۡ فَلَوۡلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ۝٥٧

We, We created you, so if only you would verify.

naḥnu khalaqnākum falawlā tuṣaddiqūn

أَفَرَءَیۡتُم مَّا تُمۡنُونَ ۝٥٨

And have you seen what you emit?

afara-aytum mā tum'nūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَخۡلُقُونَهُۥۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡخَـٰلِقُونَ ۝٥٩

Do you create it or are We the creators?

a-antum takhluqūnahu am naḥnu l-khāliqūn

And have you seen what you sow?

afara-aytum mā taḥruthūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَزۡرَعُونَهُۥۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلزَّ ٰرِعُونَ ۝٦٤

Do you make it grow or are We the ones who make it grow?

a-antum tazraʿūnahu am naḥnu l-zāriʿūn

لَوۡ نَشَاۤءُ لَجَعَلۡنَـٰهُ حُطَـٰمࣰا فَظَلۡتُمۡ تَفَكَّهُونَ ۝٦٥

If We will, surely We would make it grit, then you would continue wondering,

law nashāu lajaʿalnāhu ḥuṭāman faẓaltum tafakkahūn

إِنَّا لَمُغۡرَمُونَ ۝٦٦

'Indeed, we are surely in debt,

innā lamugh'ramūn

بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ ۝٦٧

Nay, we are denied.'

afara-aytumu l-māa alladhī tashrabūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنزَلۡتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُزۡنِ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنزِلُونَ ۝٦٩

Did you send it down from the clouds or are We the senders?

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

لَوۡ نَشَاۤءُ جَعَلۡنَـٰهُ أُجَاجࣰا فَلَوۡلَا تَشۡكُرُونَ ۝٧٠

If We will, We would make it bitter; so if only you would be grateful.

law nashāu jaʿalnāhu ujājan falawlā tashkurūn

أَفَرَءَیۡتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِی تُورُونَ ۝٧١

And have you seen the fire which you strike?

afara-aytumu l-nāra allatī tūrūn

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنشَأۡتُمۡ شَجَرَتَهَاۤ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنشِءُونَ ۝٧٢

Did you produce its tree or are We the producers?

a-antum anshatum shajaratahā am naḥnu l-munshiūn

نَحۡنُ جَعَلۡنَـٰهَا تَذۡكِرَةࣰ وَمَتَـٰعࣰا لِّلۡمُقۡوِینَ ۝٧٣

We have made it a reminder and provision for the wayfarers of the desert.

naḥnu jaʿalnāhā tadhkiratan wamatāʿan lil'muq'wīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٧٤

So glorify with the name of your Lord, the Great.

3 Judgment is Inevitable

۞ فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَوَ ٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝٧٥

And I swear by the positions of the stars;

falā uq'simu bimawāqiʿi l-nujūm

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمࣱ لَّوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عَظِیمٌ ۝٧٦

And indeed, it is surely a great oath if you know,

wa-innahu laqasamun law taʿlamūna ʿaẓīmu

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرۡءَانࣱ كَرِیمࣱ ۝٧٧

Indeed, it is surely a noble Quran,

innahu laqur'ānun karīmu

فِی كِتَـٰبࣲ مَّكۡنُونࣲ ۝٧٨

In a protected book.

fī kitābin maknūni

لَّا یَمَسُّهُۥۤ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُطَهَّرُونَ ۝٧٩

None touch it except the purified.

lā yamassuhu illā l-muṭaharūn

تَنزِیلࣱ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٨٠

A revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

tanzīlun min rabbi l-ʿālamīn

أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِیثِ أَنتُم مُّدۡهِنُونَ ۝٨١

So is this the information you hold in light estimation?

afabihādhā l-ḥadīthi antum mud'hinūn

وَتَجۡعَلُونَ رِزۡقَكُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٨٢

And you make your provision that you say it is a lie.

watajʿalūna riz'qakum annakum tukadhibūn

فَلَوۡلَاۤ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلۡحُلۡقُومَ ۝٨٣

Then why not when it reaches the throat,

falawlā idhā balaghati l-ḥul'qūm

وَأَنتُمۡ حِینَىِٕذࣲ تَنظُرُونَ ۝٨٤

And you at that time are looking,

wa-antum ḥīna-idhin tanẓurūn

وَنَحۡنُ أَقۡرَبُ إِلَیۡهِ مِنكُمۡ وَلَـٰكِن لَّا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٨٥

And We are nearer to him than you, but you do not see,

wanaḥnu aqrabu ilayhi minkum walākin lā tub'ṣirūn

فَلَوۡلَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ غَیۡرَ مَدِینِینَ ۝٨٦

Then why not, if you are not to be requited,

falawlā in kuntum ghayra madīnīn

تَرۡجِعُونَهَاۤ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَـٰدِقِینَ ۝٨٧

Return it, if you are truthful.

tarjiʿūnahā in kuntum ṣādiqīn

فَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِینَ ۝٨٨

Then as for if he is of those who are brought near,

fa-ammā in kāna mina l-muqarabīn

فَرَوۡحࣱ وَرَیۡحَانࣱ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِیمࣲ ۝٨٩

Then rest and fragrant plants and a Garden of pleasure.

farawḥun warayḥānun wajannatu naʿīmi

وَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٩٠

And as for if he is of the fellows of the right,

wa-ammā in kāna min aṣḥābi l-yamīn

فَسَلَـٰمࣱ لَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَـٰبِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٩١

Then 'Peace for you,' from the fellows of the right.

fasalāmun laka min aṣḥābi l-yamīn

وَأَمَّاۤ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ ٱلضَّاۤلِّینَ ۝٩٢

And as for if he is of those who say it is a lie, the erring,

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

فَنُزُلࣱ مِّنۡ حَمِیمࣲ ۝٩٣

Then an entertainment of hot water,

fanuzulun min ḥamīmi

وَتَصۡلِیَةُ جَحِیمٍ ۝٩٤

And broiling in Hellfire.

wataṣliyatu jaḥīmi

إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلۡیَقِینِ ۝٩٥

Indeed, this, surely it is the truth of the certainty.

inna hādhā lahuwa ḥaqqu l-yaqīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٩٦

So glorify with the name of your Lord, the Great.
