In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Benevolent. Qaf.i 1
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ق -
By the glorious Recitation! They marveled instead that a warner, one of their own, had come to them. Those who deny said: "This is a strange thing. When we are dead and become earth...? That return is far-fetched."i 3
والقران المجيد بل عجبوا ان جاهم منذر منهم فقال الكفرون هذا شي عجيب اذا متنا وكنا ترابا ذلك رجع بعيد -
We know what the earth diminishes of them, and We have a record that keeps everything.i 4
قد علمنا ما تنقص الارض منهم وعندنا كتب حفيظ -
They rather denied the truth when it came to them; so they are in a confused state. 5
بل كذبوا بالحق لما جاهم فهم في امر مريج -
Have they not looked at the sky above them: how We built it and adorned it, without a single crack in it? 6
افلم ينظروا الي السما فوقهم كيف بنينها وزينها وما لها من فروج -
And the earth, We spread it out, placed firm anchors in it, and caused every kind of splendid pair to grow in it — a means of insight and a reminder for every repentant the obedient one. 8
والارض مددنها والقينا فيها روسي وانبتنا فيها من كل زوج بهيج تبصره وذكري لكل عبد منيب -
And We sent down from the sky a blessed water, by which We caused gardens to grow, and the grain of harvest, and the tall palm trees with layered clusters, as sustenance for the obedient ones. 11
ونزلنا من السما ما مبركا فانبتنا به جنت وحب الحصيد والنخل باسقت لها طلع نضيد رزقا للعباد -
And by it We gave life to a dead land. 11
واحيينا به بلده ميتا -
Such will be the coming forth [from the earth]. 11
كذلك الخروج -
Before them, the people of Nuh denied, as did the people of the Well, Thamud, the Recidivists [Aad], Fir'awn, the brothers of Lut, the people of the Thicket, and the people of Tubba'.i 14
كذبت قبلهم قوم نوح واصحب الرس وثمود وعاد وفرعون واخون لوط واصحب الايكه وقوم تبع -
All of them denied the messengers, and My threat proved true. 14
كل كذب الرسل فحق وعيد -
Were We then exhausted by the first creation? 15
افعيينا بالخلق الاول -
They are rather in confusion about a new creation. 15
بل هم في لبس من خلق جديد -
We have indeed created the human being, and We know what his [own] Self whispers to him; and We are closer to him than the jugular vein. 16
ولقد خلقنا الانسن ونعلم ما توسوس به نفسه ونحن اقرب اليه من حبل الوريد -
When the two receivers receive, one on the right, one on the left, seated.i 17
اذ يتلقي المتلقيان عن اليمين وعن الشمال قعيد -
He does not utter a word without an observer, ready [to record], being at his side. 18
ما يلفظ من قول الا لديه رقيب عتيد -
And the agony of death has come with the truth: 19
وجات سكره الموت بالحق -
This is what you used to turn away from. 19
ذلك ما كنت منه تحيد -
And the Trumpet will be blown: 20
ونفخ في الصور -
this is the Day of the Threat. 20
ذلك يوم الوعيد -
And every Self will come, accompanied by a driver and a witness. 21
وجات كل نفس معها سايق وشهيد -
You were indeed heedless of this; so We removed your veil, and your sight today is piercing. 22
لقد كنت في غفله من هذا فكشفنا عنك غطاك فبصرك اليوم حديد -
And his companion will say: 'Here is what I have, ready [to present].' 23
وقال قرينه هذا ما لدي عتيد -
Cast into Jahannam, both of you, every [being] who persistently denies, obstructive of good, an aggressor, a sower of doubt, who set up, alongside God, another deity — cast him then into the severe punishment.i 26
القيا في جهنم كل كفار عنيد مناع للخير معتد مريب الذي جعل مع الله الها اخر فالقياه في العذاب الشديد -
His companion will say: 'Our Guardian, I did not make him transgress, but he was in deep error.' 27
قال قرينه ربنا ما اطغيته ولكن كان في ضلل بعيد -
He will say: 'Do not dispute before Me, for I had already warned you with the threat.' 28
قال لا تختصموا لدي وقد قدمت اليكم بالوعيد -
The word does not change with Me, and I am not unjust to the constrained at all. 29
ما يبدل القول لدي وما انا بظلم للعبيد -
The day We will say to Jahannam: 'Are you full?' and it will say: 'Is there more?'i 30
يوم نقول لجهنم هل امتلات وتقول هل من مزيد -
And the Garden will be brought near to the [people who are] mindful, not far off. 31
وازلفت الجنه للمتقين غير بعيد -
This is what you are promised, for every repentant, watchful [being].i 32
هذا ما توعدون لكل اواب حفيظ -
Whoever feared the Most Gracious without seeing Him and came with a repentant core: "Enter it in peace."i 34
من خشي الرحمن بالغيب وجا بقلب منيب ادخلوها بسلم -
This is the Day of eternity. 34
ذلك يوم الخلود -
They will have therein what they wish, 35
لهم ما يشاون فيها -
and with Us there is even more. 35
ولدينا مزيد -
How many generations have We destroyed before them, mightier than them in strike, who had scoured the land [in every direction]! 36
وكم اهلكنا قبلهم من قرن هم اشد منهم بطشا فنقبوا في البلد -
Was there any escape? 36
هل من محيص -
There is indeed a reminder in that for whoever has a core, or lends an ear while being present [of mind]. 37
ان في ذلك لذكري لمن كان له قلب او القي السمع وهو شهيد -
We have indeed created the heavens and the earth, and what is between them, in six days, without any fatigue touching Us. 38
ولقد خلقنا السموت والارض وما بينهما في سته ايام وما مسنا من لغوب -
So be patient over what they say, 39
فاصبر علي ما يقولون -
and glorify, with praise, your Guardian, before the rising of the sun and before its setting, 39
وسبح بحمد ربك قبل طلوع الشمس وقبل الغروب -
and glorify Him during part of the night, and after the prostrations. 40
ومن اليل فسبحه وادبر السجود -
And listen, the day the Caller will call from a near place, the day they will hear the Cry in all truth — 42
واستمع يوم يناد المناد من مكان قريب يوم يسمعون الصيحه بالحق -
this is the Day of the emergence. 42
ذلك يوم الخروج -
It is We, indeed, who give life and cause death, and to Us is the final destination. 43
انا نحن نحي ونميت والينا المصير -
The day the earth will split open from them, in haste — 44
يوم تشقق الارض عنهم سراعا -
that is a gathering easy for Us. 44
ذلك حشر علينا يسير -
We know best what they say, 45
نحن اعلم بما يقولون -
and you have no compulsion to impose upon them. 45
وما انت عليهم بجبار -
So remind, by the Recitation, whoever fears My threat. 45
فذكر بالقران من يخاف وعيد
