وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَـٰتِ غَرْقًا
By the forceful chargers
Juz 30 · Page 583
وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَـٰتِ نَشْطًا
raring to go,
Juz 30 · Page 583
وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَـٰتِ سَبْحًا
sweeping ahead at full stretch,
Juz 30 · Page 583
فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَـٰتِ سَبْقًا
overtaking swiftly
Juz 30 · Page 583
فَٱلْمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمْرًا
to bring the matter to an end,
Juz 30 · Page 583
يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ
on the Day when the blast reverberates
Juz 30 · Page 583
تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ
and the second blast follows,
Juz 30 · Page 583
قُلُوبٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاجِفَةٌ
hearts will tremble
Juz 30 · Page 583
أَبْصَـٰرُهَا خَـٰشِعَةٌ
and eyes will be downcast.
Juz 30 · Page 583
يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى ٱلْحَافِرَةِ
They say, ‘What? shall we be brought back to life,
Juz 30 · Page 583
أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَـٰمًا نَّخِرَةً
after we have turned into decayed bones?’ and they say,
Juz 30 · Page 583
قَالُوا۟ تِلْكَ إِذًا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ
‘Such a return is impossible!’
Juz 30 · Page 583
فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ
But all it will take is a single blast,
Juz 30 · Page 583
فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ
and they will be back above ground.
Juz 30 · Page 583
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ
Have you [Prophet] heard the story of Moses?
Juz 30 · Page 583
إِذْ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى
His Lord called out to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa:
Juz 30 · Page 584
ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ
‘Go to Pharaoh, for he has exceeded all bounds,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ
and ask him, “Do you want to purify yourself [of sin]?
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ
Do you want me to guide you to your Lord, so that you may hold Him in awe?” ’
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَأَرَىٰهُ ٱلْـَٔايَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
Moses showed him the great sign,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ
but he denied it and refused [the faith].
Juz 30 · Page 584
ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَىٰ
He turned away and hastily
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ
gathered his people, proclaiming,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَقَالَ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
‘I am your supreme lord,’
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَأَخَذَهُ ٱللَّهُ نَكَالَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ وَٱلْأُولَىٰٓ
so God condemned him to punishment in the life to come as well as in this life:
Juz 30 · Page 584
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ
there truly is a lesson in this for anyone who stands in awe of God.
Juz 30 · Page 584
ءَأَنتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ ۚ بَنَىٰهَا
Which is harder to create: you people or the sky that He built,
Juz 30 · Page 584
رَفَعَ سَمْكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا
raising it high and perfecting it,
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا
giving darkness to its night and bringing out its morning brightness,
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ
and the earth, too, He spread out,
Juz 30 · Page 584
أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَآءَهَا وَمَرْعَىٰهَا
bringing waters and pastures out of it,
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَرْسَىٰهَا
and setting firm mountains [in it]
Juz 30 · Page 584
مَتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ
for you and your animals to enjoy?
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلطَّآمَّةُ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
When the great overwhelming event arrives
Juz 30 · Page 584
يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ
on the Day that man remembers what he has done
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ
and Hell is there for all to see,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ
for anyone who has transgressed
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَءَاثَرَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا
and preferred the present life
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ
Hell will be home;
Juz 30 · Page 584
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفْسَ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ
for anyone who feared the meeting with his Lord and restrained himself from base desires,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ
Paradise will be home.
Juz 30 · Page 584
يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا
They ask you [Prophet] about the Hour,
Juz 30 · Page 584
فِيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكْرَىٰهَآ
saying, ‘When will it arrive?’, but how can you tell [them that]?
Juz 30 · Page 584
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهَىٰهَآ
Its time is known only to your Lord;
Juz 30 · Page 584
إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُنذِرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰهَا
you are only sent to warn those who fear it.
Juz 30 · Page 584
كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَهَا لَمْ يَلْبَثُوٓا۟ إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحَىٰهَا
On the Day they see it, it will seem they lingered [in this life] an evening [at most,] or its morning.
Juz 30 · Page 584
