The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection — Faridul Haque Translation – Parallel Quran

1 Truth of the Resurrection

۞ لَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِیَوۡمِ ٱلۡقِیَـٰمَةِ ۝١

I swear by the Day of Resurrection

lā uq'simu biyawmi l-qiyāmat

وَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلنَّفۡسِ ٱللَّوَّامَةِ ۝٢

And by oath of the soul that reproaches itself

walā uq'simu bil-nafsi l-lawāmat

أَیَحۡسَبُ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ أَلَّن نَّجۡمَعَ عِظَامَهُۥ ۝٣

Does man assume that We will never assemble his bones

ayaḥsabu l-insānu allan najmaʿa ʿiẓāmah

بَلَىٰ قَـٰدِرِینَ عَلَىٰۤ أَن نُّسَوِّیَ بَنَانَهُۥ ۝٤

Surely yes, why not? We can properly make all his phalanxes

balā qādirīna ʿalā an nusawwiya banānah

بَلۡ یُرِیدُ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ لِیَفۡجُرَ أَمَامَهُۥ ۝٥

In fact man wishes to commit evil in front of Him

bal yurīdu l-insānu liyafjura amāmah

یَسۡءَلُ أَیَّانَ یَوۡمُ ٱلۡقِیَـٰمَةِ ۝٦

He asks, “When will be the Day of Resurrection?”

yasalu ayyāna yawmu l-qiyāmat

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ ۝٧

So when the eyes will be blinded by light

fa-idhā bariqa l-baṣar

وَخَسَفَ ٱلۡقَمَرُ ۝٨

And the moon will be eclipsed

wakhasafa l-qamar

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمۡسُ وَٱلۡقَمَرُ ۝٩

And the sun and the moon will be united

wajumiʿa l-shamsu wal-qamar

یَقُولُ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ أَیۡنَ ٱلۡمَفَرُّ ۝١٠

On that day man will cry out, “Where shall I flee?”

yaqūlu l-insānu yawma-idhin ayna l-mafar

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ۝١١

Never! There is no refuge

kallā lā wazar

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقَرُّ ۝١٢

On that day, the station is only towards your Lord

ilā rabbika yawma-idhin l-mus'taqar

یُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ یَوۡمَىِٕذِۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ ۝١٣

On that day, man will be informed of all what he sent ahead and left behind

yunabba-u l-insānu yawma-idhin bimā qaddama wa-akhar

بَلِ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفۡسِهِۦ بَصِیرَةࣱ ۝١٤

In fact, man himself is keeping an eye on his state of affairs

bali l-insānu ʿalā nafsihi baṣīratu

وَلَوۡ أَلۡقَىٰ مَعَاذِیرَهُۥ ۝١٥

And even if he presents all the excuses he has, none will be listened to

walaw alqā maʿādhīrah

لَا تُحَرِّكۡ بِهِۦ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعۡجَلَ بِهِۦۤ ۝١٦

O dear Prophet (Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), do not cause your tongue to move along with the Qur’an in order to learn it faster

lā tuḥarrik bihi lisānaka litaʿjala bih

إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا جَمۡعَهُۥ وَقُرۡءَانَهُۥ ۝١٧

Indeed assembling the Qur’an and reading it are upon Us

inna ʿalaynā jamʿahu waqur'ānah

فَإِذَا قَرَأۡنَـٰهُ فَٱتَّبِعۡ قُرۡءَانَهُۥ ۝١٨

So when We have read it, you should thereupon follow what is read

fa-idhā qaranāhu fa-ittabiʿ qur'ānah

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا بَیَانَهُۥ ۝١٩

Then indeed, to explain its details to you is upon Us

thumma inna ʿalaynā bayānah

كَلَّا بَلۡ تُحِبُّونَ ٱلۡعَاجِلَةَ ۝٢٠

None except you, O disbelievers – you love what you have, the fleeting one

kallā bal tuḥibbūna l-ʿājilat

وَتَذَرُونَ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةَ ۝٢١

And you have forsaken the Hereafter

watadharūna l-ākhirat

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ نَّاضِرَةٌ ۝٢٢

On that day, some faces will shine with freshness

wujūhun yawma-idhin nāḍiratu

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةࣱ ۝٢٣

Looking toward their Lord

ilā rabbihā nāẓiratu

وَوُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذِۭ بَاسِرَةࣱ ۝٢٤

And on that day some faces will be ghastly

wawujūhun yawma-idhin bāsiratu

تَظُنُّ أَن یُفۡعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةࣱ ۝٢٥

Knowing that they will be subjected to a torment that breaks the backs

taẓunnu an yuf'ʿala bihā fāqiratu

كَلَّاۤ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلتَّرَاقِیَ ۝٢٦

Yes indeed, when the soul will reach up to the throat

kallā idhā balaghati l-tarāqiy

وَقِیلَ مَنۡۜ رَاقࣲ ۝٢٧

And they will say, “Is there any one – any magician?”

waqīla man rāqi

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ ٱلۡفِرَاقُ ۝٢٨

And he will realise that this is the parting

waẓanna annahu l-firāq

وَٱلۡتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ ۝٢٩

And one shin will curl up with the other shin

wal-tafati l-sāqu bil-sāq

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ ٱلۡمَسَاقُ ۝٣٠

On that day, the herding will be only towards your Lord

ilā rabbika yawma-idhin l-masāq

2 The Dead Rise

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ ۝٣١

Neither did he believe it to be true, nor did he offer the prayer

falā ṣaddaqa walā ṣall

وَلَـٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ۝٣٢

But he denied and turned away

walākin kadhaba watawall

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰۤ أَهۡلِهِۦ یَتَمَطَّىٰۤ ۝٣٣

Then he went back to his home in pride

thumma dhahaba ilā ahlihi yatamaṭṭ

أَوۡلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوۡلَىٰ ۝٣٤

Your ruin has come close, still closer

awlā laka fa-awl

ثُمَّ أَوۡلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوۡلَىٰۤ ۝٣٥

Again your ruin has come close, still closer

thumma awlā laka fa-awl

أَیَحۡسَبُ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ أَن یُتۡرَكَ سُدًى ۝٣٦

Does man assume that he will be let loose

ayaḥsabu l-insānu an yut'raka suda

أَلَمۡ یَكُ نُطۡفَةࣰ مِّن مَّنِیࣲّ یُمۡنَىٰ ۝٣٧

Was he not just a drop of the semen that is discharged

alam yaku nuṭ'fatan min maniyyin yum'n

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةࣰ فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ۝٣٨

He then became a clot – so Allah created him, then made him proper

thumma kāna ʿalaqatan fakhalaqa fasaww

فَجَعَلَ مِنۡهُ ٱلزَّوۡجَیۡنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰۤ ۝٣٩

So created from him a pair, the male and female

fajaʿala min'hu l-zawjayni l-dhakara wal-unth

أَلَیۡسَ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِقَـٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰۤ أَن یُحۡـِۧیَ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ ۝٤٠

So will He, Who has done all this, not be able to revive the dead

alaysa dhālika biqādirin ʿalā an yuḥ'yiya l-mawt
