What is the inevitable?

وَمَاۤ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡحَاۤقَّةُ ۝٣

And what will make you understand what the inevitable is?

كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ وَعَادُۢ بِٱلۡقَارِعَةِ ۝٤

Thamud and Ad people denied the calamity (the striking Hour of judgment)!

kadhabat thamūdu waʿādun bil-qāriʿat

فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهۡلِكُوا۟ بِٱلطَّاغِیَةِ ۝٥

As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the awful cry!

fa-ammā thamūdu fa-uh'likū bil-ṭāghiyat

وَأَمَّا عَادࣱ فَأُهۡلِكُوا۟ بِرِیحࣲ صَرۡصَرٍ عَاتِیَةࣲ ۝٦

As for Ad, they were destroyed by a furious violent wind,

which Allah imposed on them for 7 nights and 8 days in succession, so that you could see the people lying overthrown (destroyed) in it as if they were hollow trunks of date-palms!

sakharahā ʿalayhim sabʿa layālin wathamāniyata ayyāmin ḥusūman fatarā l-qawma fīhā ṣarʿā ka-annahum aʿjāzu nakhlin khāwiyati

فَهَلۡ تَرَىٰ لَهُم مِّنۢ بَاقِیَةࣲ ۝٨

Now, do you see any remnants of them?

fahal tarā lahum min bāqiyati

وَجَاۤءَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ وَمَن قَبۡلَهُۥ وَٱلۡمُؤۡتَفِكَـٰتُ بِٱلۡخَاطِئَةِ ۝٩

And Pharaoh and those before him, and the cities overthrown (the people of Lot) who committed sin

wajāa fir'ʿawnu waman qablahu wal-mu'tafikātu bil-khāṭi-at

فَعَصَوۡا۟ رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمۡ فَأَخَذَهُمۡ أَخۡذَةࣰ رَّابِیَةً ۝١٠

and they disobeyed their Lord’s Messenger, so He seized them with a strong seize.

faʿaṣaw rasūla rabbihim fa-akhadhahum akhdhatan rābiyata

إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا ٱلۡمَاۤءُ حَمَلۡنَـٰكُمۡ فِی ٱلۡجَارِیَةِ ۝١١

Surely! When the water rose beyond limits (Noah’s flood), We carried you people in the floating ship,

innā lammā ṭaghā l-māu ḥamalnākum fī l-jāriyat

لِنَجۡعَلَهَا لَكُمۡ تَذۡكِرَةࣰ وَتَعِیَهَاۤ أُذُنࣱ وَ ٰعِیَةࣱ ۝١٢

that We may make it an event of warning for you so that it may be understood by the retaining ears (in memory).

linajʿalahā lakum tadhkiratan wataʿiyahā udhunun wāʿiyatu

فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِی ٱلصُّورِ نَفۡخَةࣱ وَ ٰحِدَةࣱ ۝١٣

Then when the Trumpet will be blown with one blowing (first one)

fa-idhā nufikha fī l-ṣūri nafkhatun wāḥidatu

وَحُمِلَتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَٱلۡجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةࣰ وَ ٰحِدَةࣰ ۝١٤

and the earth with its mountains will be removed (from their places) and crushed with a single crushing,

فَیَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ وَقَعَتِ ٱلۡوَاقِعَةُ ۝١٥

then on that Day the great Event will befall,

fayawma-idhin waqaʿati l-wāqiʿat

وَٱنشَقَّتِ ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ فَهِیَ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ وَاهِیَةࣱ ۝١٦

and the heaven will split asunder, and for that Day it (heaven) will be frail and torn up.

wa-inshaqqati l-samāu fahiya yawma-idhin wāhiyatu

وَٱلۡمَلَكُ عَلَىٰۤ أَرۡجَاۤىِٕهَاۚ وَیَحۡمِلُ عَرۡشَ رَبِّكَ فَوۡقَهُمۡ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ ثَمَـٰنِیَةࣱ ۝١٧

And the angels will be on all sides and on that Day 8 angels will bear the Throne of your Lord above them.

یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ تُعۡرَضُونَ لَا تَخۡفَىٰ مِنكُمۡ خَافِیَةࣱ ۝١٨

That Day you will be brought to judgment (before your Lord), and not a secret of you will be hidden.

yawma-idhin tuʿ'raḍūna lā takhfā minkum khāfiyatu

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِیَمِینِهِۦ فَیَقُولُ هَاۤؤُمُ ٱقۡرَءُوا۟ كِتَـٰبِیَهۡ ۝١٩

Then, as for the one who will be given its record (of deeds) in its right hand, will say: “Here! read my record!

fa-ammā man ūtiya kitābahu biyamīnihi fayaqūlu hāumu iq'raū kitābiya

إِنِّی ظَنَنتُ أَنِّی مُلَـٰقٍ حِسَابِیَهۡ ۝٢٠

Surely, I did believe that I shall meet my account!”

innī ẓanantu annī mulāqin ḥisābiya

فَهُوَ فِی عِیشَةࣲ رَّاضِیَةࣲ ۝٢١

So he shall have a life of well-pleasing,

fahuwa fī ʿīshatin rāḍiyati

فِی جَنَّةٍ عَالِیَةࣲ ۝٢٢

in a lofty Paradise,

قُطُوفُهَا دَانِیَةࣱ ۝٢٣

quṭūfuhā dāniyatu

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشۡرَبُوا۟ هَنِیۤءَۢا بِمَاۤ أَسۡلَفۡتُمۡ فِی ٱلۡأَیَّامِ ٱلۡخَالِیَةِ ۝٢٤

(It will be said him): “Eat and drink at ease, (this is the reward) for what you did sent on before in past days!”

kulū wa-ish'rabū hanīan bimā aslaftum fī l-ayāmi l-khāliyat

وَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِشِمَالِهِۦ فَیَقُولُ یَـٰلَیۡتَنِی لَمۡ أُوتَ كِتَـٰبِیَهۡ ۝٢٥

But as for the one who will be given its record (of deeds) in its left hand, will say: “I wish that I had not been given my record (of deeds)

wa-ammā man ūtiya kitābahu bishimālihi fayaqūlu yālaytanī lam ūta kitābiya

وَلَمۡ أَدۡرِ مَا حِسَابِیَهۡ ۝٢٦

and that I had never known what my account was?

walam adri mā ḥisābiya

یَـٰلَیۡتَهَا كَانَتِ ٱلۡقَاضِیَةَ ۝٢٧

I wish if only it had been my end (death)!

yālaytahā kānati l-qāḍiyat

My wealth has availed me nothing,

mā aghnā ʿannī māliya

halaka ʿannī sul'ṭāniya

خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ ۝٣٠

(It will be said): “Seize him and fetter (with a chain around its neck),

khudhūhu faghullūh

ثُمَّ ٱلۡجَحِیمَ صَلُّوهُ ۝٣١

then throw him in the blazing fire,

thumma l-jaḥīma ṣallūh

ثُمَّ فِی سِلۡسِلَةࣲ ذَرۡعُهَا سَبۡعُونَ ذِرَاعࣰا فَٱسۡلُكُوهُ ۝٣٢

then fasten him with a chain of 70 cubits long!

thumma fī sil'silatin dharʿuhā sabʿūna dhirāʿan fa-us'lukūh

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لَا یُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٣٣

Surely, he did not believe in Allah, the Great,

innahu kāna lā yu'minu bil-lahi l-ʿaẓīm

وَلَا یَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِینِ ۝٣٤

and did not urge on the feeding of the poor.

walā yaḥuḍḍu ʿalā ṭaʿāmi l-mis'kīn

فَلَیۡسَ لَهُ ٱلۡیَوۡمَ هَـٰهُنَا حَمِیمࣱ ۝٣٥

This Day he has neither a friend here,

falaysa lahu l-yawma hāhunā ḥamīmu

وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِینࣲ ۝٣٦

nor any food except the filth from the washing of wounds,

walā ṭaʿāmun illā min ghis'līni

لَّا یَأۡكُلُهُۥۤ إِلَّا ٱلۡخَـٰطِءُونَ ۝٣٧

which none will eat except the sinners.”

lā yakuluhu illā l-khāṭiūn

2 False Allegations refuted

فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٣٨

So, surely I swear by whatever you see,

falā uq'simu bimā tub'ṣirūn

وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝٣٩

and by whatever you don’t see,

wamā lā tub'ṣirūn

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولࣲ كَرِیمࣲ ۝٤٠

that surely this is the word of an honored Messenger.

innahu laqawlu rasūlin karīmi

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرࣲۚ قَلِیلࣰا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝٤١

It is not the word of a poet, little is that you believe,

wamā huwa biqawli shāʿirin qalīlan mā tu'minūn

وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنࣲۚ قَلِیلࣰا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٤٢

nor it is the word of a soothsayer, little is that you remember.

walā biqawli kāhinin qalīlan mā tadhakkarūn

تَنزِیلࣱ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ ۝٤٣

This is the revelation sent down from the Lord of the worlds.

tanzīlun min rabbi l-ʿālamīn

وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَیۡنَا بَعۡضَ ٱلۡأَقَاوِیلِ ۝٤٤

Had he (Muhammad) forged false sayings concerning Us,

walaw taqawwala ʿalaynā baʿḍa l-aqāwīl

لَأَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِٱلۡیَمِینِ ۝٤٥

We certainly would have seized him by his right hand

la-akhadhnā min'hu bil-yamīn

ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ ٱلۡوَتِینَ ۝٤٦

then certainly would have cut off his life arter

thumma laqaṭaʿnā min'hu l-watīn

فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَـٰجِزِینَ ۝٤٧

and none of you could prevent (Us) from punishing him.

famā minkum min aḥadin ʿanhu ḥājizīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذۡكِرَةࣱ لِّلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝٤٨

Surely this (Qur’an) is a reminder for the pious.

wa-innahu latadhkiratun lil'muttaqīn

وَإِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِینَ ۝٤٩

Surely We know that there are some among you who deny (the Qur’an)

wa-innā lanaʿlamu anna minkum mukadhibīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ۝٥٠

and indeed it (this Qur’an) will be an anguish for the disbelievers.

wa-innahu laḥasratun ʿalā l-kāfirīn

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلۡیَقِینِ ۝٥١

Yet, it (this Qur’an) is an absolute truth with certainty.

wa-innahu laḥaqqu l-yaqīn

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝٥٢

So glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
