Sourate At-Tur (52) original (rasm)

In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Benevolent. By the Mount! By a written record, on an unrolled parchment! By the Frequented House! By the raised canopy! By the sea set aboil! The punishment of your Guardian will, indeed, fall —i 7

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والطور وكتب مسطور في رق منشور والبيت المعمور والسقف المرفوع والبحر المسجور ان عذاب ربك لوقع

nothing can repel it. 8

ما له من دافع

The day the sky will be shaken with violent turbulence, and the mountains will set forth in motion — 10

يوم تمور السما مورا وتسير الجبال سيرا

woe, that day, to those who deny, those who frolic in vain discourse. 12

فويل يوميذ للمكذبين الذين هم في خوض يلعبون

The day they will be pushed violently toward the fire of Jahannam, 13

يوم يدعون الي نار جهنم دعا

'This is the fire you used to deny.' 14

هذه النار التي كنتم بها تكذبون

Is this, then, an illusion, or do you not see? 15

افسحر هذا ام انتم لا تبصرون

'Burn in it: whether you are patient or not, it is the same for you.' 16

اصلوها فاصبروا او لا تصبروا سوا عليكم

You are only recompensed for what you used to do. 16

انما تجزون ما كنتم تعملون

The mindful are, indeed, in gardens and delight, rejoicing in what their Guardian has given them, 18

ان المتقين في جنت ونعيم فكهين بما اتيهم ربهم

and their Guardian has protected them from the punishment of the Blaze. 18

ووقيهم ربهم عذاب الجحيم

'Eat and drink in ease, for what you used to do,' reclining on aligned couches; and We paired them with wide-eyed houris. 20

كلوا واشربوا هنيا بما كنتم تعملون متكين علي سرر مصفوفه وزوجنهم بحور عين

And those who believed, and whose descendants followed them in faith, We joined to them their descendants, without diminishing anything from their deeds.i 21

والذين امنوا واتبعتهم ذريتهم بايمن الحقنا بهم ذريتهم وما التنهم من عملهم من شي

Every person is bound by what they have earned. 21

كل امري بما كسب رهين

We will provide them with fruit and meat, of what they desire; they will pass among themselves a cup wherein there is neither idle talk nor incitement to transgression. 23

وامددنهم بفكهه ولحم مما يشتهون يتنزعون فيها كاسا لا لغو فيها ولا تاثيم

And there will circulate among them young servants who belong to them, like hidden pearls. 24

ويطوف عليهم غلمان لهم كانهم لولو مكنون

And they will turn to one another, questioning, 25

واقبل بعضهم علي بعض يتسالون

saying: 'We were before, among our own, filled with apprehension; God has favored us and protected us from the punishment of the scorching wind.' 27

قالوا انا كنا قبل في اهلنا مشفقين فمن الله علينا ووقينا عذاب السموم

'We used to call upon Him before: He is the Benevolent, the Benevolent.' 28

انا كنا من قبل ندعوه انه هو البر الرحيم

So remind: by the favor of your Guardian, you are neither a soothsayer nor deranged. 29

فذكر فما انت بنعمت ربك بكاهن ولا مجنون

Or do they say: 'A beguiling rhetorician, we await for him the blows of fate'?i 30

ام يقولون شاعر نتربص به ريب المنون

Say: 'Wait, then, 31

قل تربصوا

'I too, with you, am among those who wait.' 31

فاني معكم من المتربصين

Is it their reason that commands them to this, or are they a people of transgressors? 32

ام تامرهم احلمهم بهذا ام هم قوم طاغون

Or do they say: 'He invented it'? 33

ام يقولون تقوله

They rather do not believe. 33

بل لا يومنون

Let them then produce a discourse like it, if they are truthful! 34

فلياتوا بحديث مثله ان كانوا صدقين

Were they created out of nothing, or are they themselves the creators? 35

ام خلقوا من غير شي ام هم الخلقون

Did they create the heavens and the earth? 36

ام خلقوا السموت والارض

They rather have no certainty. 36

بل لا يوقنون

Do they possess the treasuries of your Guardian, or are they the absolute masters? 37

ام عندهم خزاين ربك ام هم المصيطرون

Do they have a ladder by which they listen [to the secrets of heaven]? 38

ام لهم سلم يستمعون فيه

Then let their listener bring a clear proof! 38

فليات مستمعهم بسلطن مبين

Would He have daughters, while you would have sons? 39

ام له البنت ولكم البنون

Do you ask them for a wage, such that they are burdened with debt? 40

ام تسلهم اجرا فهم من مغرم مثقلون

Do they possess what escapes the senses, so as to write it down?i 41

ام عندهم الغيب فهم يكتبون

Do they wish to devise a scheme? 42

ام يريدون كيدا

It is rather those who deny who will be caught in their own trap. 42

فالذين كفروا هم المكيدون

Do they have another deity besides God? 43

ام لهم اله غير الله

Glory be to God, far above what they associate with Him! 43

سبحن الله عما يشركون

And if they saw a piece of the sky falling, they would say: 'A heap of clouds.' 44

وان يروا كسفا من السما ساقطا يقولوا سحاب مركوم

So leave them until they meet their day in which they will be thunderstruck — the day their scheme will not benefit them at all, and they will not be helped. 46

فذرهم حتي يلقوا يومهم الذي فيه يصعقون يوم لا يغني عنهم كيدهم شيا ولا هم ينصرون

And there is, for those who did injustice, a punishment short of that, 47

وان للذين ظلموا عذابا دون ذلك

but most of them do not know. 47

ولكن اكثرهم لا يعلمون

Be patient with the judgment of your Guardian: you are, indeed, under Our eyes. 48

واصبر لحكم ربك فانك باعيننا

And glorify, with praise, your Guardian, when you arise, 48

وسبح بحمد ربك حين تقوم

and glorify Him during part of the night, and at the fading of the stars. 49

ومن اليل فسبحه وادبر النجوم
