عَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ

What are they asking one another about?

AAamma yatasaaloona

عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ

About the Great Tiding,

AAani alnnaba-i alAAatheemi

الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ

over which they differ.

Allathee hum feehi mukhtalifoona

كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ

But no, surely they will find out!

Kalla sayaAAlamoona

ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ

Once again, no, surely they will find out!

Thumma kalla sayaAAlamoona

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْأَرْضَ مِهَادًا

Did We not make the earth a resting place,

Alam najAAali al-arda mihadan

وَالْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا

and the mountains as pegs?

Waaljibala awtadan

وَخَلَقْنَاكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا

And created youpl in pairs?

Wakhalaqnakum azwajan

وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا

And made your sleep for rest,

WajaAAalna nawmakum subatan

وَجَعَلْنَا اللَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا

and made the night a garment,

WajaAAalna allayla libasan

وَجَعَلْنَا النَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا

and made the day for livelihood?

WajaAAalna alnnahara maAAashan

وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا

And built above you seven strong ones,

Wabanayna fawqakum sabAAan shidadan

وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا

and made a glowing lamp?

WajaAAalna sirajan wahhajan

وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ الْمُعْصِرَاتِ مَاءً ثَجَّاجًا

And brought down from the clouds pouring water,

Waanzalna mina almuAAsirati maan thajjajan

لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا

to bring out with it grains and plants

Linukhrija bihi habban wanabatan

وَجَنَّاتٍ أَلْفَافًا

and luxuriant gardens?

Wajannatin alfafan

إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَاتًا

Indeed, the Day of Decision has been appointed:

Inna yawma alfasli kana meeqatan

يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا

the day when the Trumpet is blown, and you come in crowds,

Yawma yunfakhu fee alssoori fata/toona afwajan

وَفُتِحَتِ السَّمَاءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَابًا

and the sky was opened up and became gateways,

Wafutihati alssamao fakanat abwaban

وَسُيِّرَتِ الْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا

and the mountains were set in motion and became a mirage.

Wasuyyirati aljibalu fakanat saraban

إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا

Indeed, Hell has been lying in ambush—

Inna jahannama kanat mirsadan

لِّلطَّاغِينَ مَآبًا

a destination for those who exceed all limits,

Lilttagheena maaban

لَّابِثِينَ فِيهَا أَحْقَابًا

where they remain for eons,

Labitheena feeha ahqaban

لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا

tasting therein neither coolness nor drink,

La yathooqoona feeha bardan wala sharaban

إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا

except scalding water and purulence—

Illa hameeman waghassaqan

جَزَاءً وِفَاقًا

a fitting repayment,

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا

for they were not expecting any reckoning,

Innahum kanoo la yarjoona hisaban

وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كِذَّابًا

and they disbelieved Our signs with utter disbelief.

Wakaththaboo bi-ayatina kiththaban

وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ كِتَابًا

But We have enumerated everything in writing.

Wakulla shay-in ahsaynahu kitaban

2 The Day of Decision

فَذُوقُوا فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا

So taste, for We will not increase youpl except in punishment!

Fathooqoo falan nazeedakum illa AAathaban

إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا

Indeed, for the mindfulpl (of God) there is triumph:

Inna lilmuttaqeena mafazan

حَدَائِقَ وَأَعْنَابًا

Gardens (of Paradise) and vineyards;

Hada-iqa waaAAnaban

وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا

and high-class spouses, well-matched;

WakawaAAiba atraban

وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا

and overflowing cups.

Waka/san dihaqan

لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّابًا

They hear therein neither idle talk nor lies—

La yasmaAAoona feeha laghwan wala kiththaban

جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا

a repayment from yoursg Lord, a measured gift,

Jazaan min rabbika AAataan hisaban

رَّبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الرَّحْمَٰنِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا

(from) the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything between them, (from) the All-Merciful. They have no authority from Him to speak

Rabbi alssamawati waal-ardi wama baynahuma alrrahmani la yamlikoona minhu khitaban

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ صَفًّا لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا

on the day when the Spirit and the angels line up in ranks, not speaking—except whomever the All-Merciful has permitted and who has said what is right.

Yawma yaqoomu alrroohu waalmala-ikatu saffan la yatakallamoona illa man athina lahu alrrahmanu waqala sawaban

ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الْحَقُّ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ مَآبًا

That is the True Day. So whoever wills, let him take a route to return to his Lord.

Thalika alyawmu alhaqqu faman shaa ittakhatha ila rabbihi maaban

إِنَّا أَنذَرْنَاكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ الْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ الْكَافِرُ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَابًا

Indeed, We have warned youpl of a near punishment—the day when a person looks at what his hands have put forth, and the denier says, “If only I were dust!”

Inna antharnakum AAathaban qareeban yawma yanthuru almaro ma qaddamat yadahu wayaqoolu alkafiru ya laytanee kuntu turaban
