The Immense Information
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent.
About what?
عَمَّ
They are asking one another about the immense Information, over which they differ.
يَتَسَآءَلُونَ عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلَّذِى هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ
By no means! They will know. Then, by no means! They will know.
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ
Have We not made the earth a resting place, and the mountains as stakes? Have We not created you in pairs, and made your sleep a rest? Have We not made the night a covering, and the day for livelihood? Have We not built above you seven strong, and placed an incandescent torch? And sent down from those that press out abundant water, that We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation, and intertwined gardens?
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَٰدًۭا وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًۭا وَخَلَقْنَٰكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًۭا وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًۭا وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلَّيْلَ لِبَاسًۭا وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشًۭا وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًۭا شِدَادًۭا وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًۭا وَهَّاجًۭا وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُعْصِرَٰتِ مَآءًۭ ثَجَّاجًۭا لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبًّۭا وَنَبَاتًۭا وَجَنَّٰتٍ أَلْفَافًا
Indeed, the Day of Separation is an appointed time — the Day the Horn is blown, and you come in crowds, and the sky is opened and becomes gates, and the mountains are set moving and become a mirage.
إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَٰتًۭا يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًۭا وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَٰبًۭا وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا
Indeed, Jahannam is a lookout post — a place of return for those who exceed all measure, wherein they will remain for prolonged periods.
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًۭا لِّلطَّٰغِينَ مَـَٔابًۭا لَّٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحْقَابًۭا
They will taste therein neither coolness nor drink, except boiling water and a foul, dark fluid — a fitting recompense.
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًۭا وَلَا شَرَابًا إِلَّا حَمِيمًۭا وَغَسَّاقًۭا جَزَآءًۭ وِفَاقًا
They did not hope for any reckoning, and they denied Our signs with emphatic denial.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًۭا وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كِذَّابًۭا
But everything We have enumerated in a record.
وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَٰهُ كِتَٰبًۭا
So taste! We will only increase you in punishment.
فَذُوقُوا۟ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا
Indeed, for those who guarded themselves is a triumph: enclosed gardens and vineyards, and companions full of vitality, fertile and of shared stock, and a brimming cup. They will hear therein neither idle talk nor lies —
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَٰبًۭا وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًۭا وَكَأْسًۭا دِهَاقًۭا لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًۭا وَلَا كِذَّٰبًۭا
a recompense from your Guardian, an endowment, well accounted,
جَزَآءًۭ مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابًۭا
Guardian of the heavens and the earth and what is between them,
رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا
the All-Benevolent; they possess no right to address Him,
ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًۭا
the Day the Influx and the Agents will stand in ranks, none speaking except one to whom the All-Benevolent has given permission, and who will say what is right.
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّۭا لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًۭا
That is the True Day.
ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْحَقُّ
So whoever wants may take, toward his Guardian, a place of return.
فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا
Indeed, We have warned you of an imminent punishment — the Day when man will observe what his hands have prepared, and the one who disowns will say, "Oh, that I were earth!"
إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَٰكُمْ عَذَابًۭا قَرِيبًۭا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا
