An-Naba

عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ ١

What are they asking one another about

عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٢

About the momentous news

ٱلَّذِى هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ ٣

over which they disagree

كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ٤

But no! They will come to know

ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ٥

Again, no! They will come to know

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَـٰدًا ٦

Have We not smoothed out the earth ˹like a bed˺

وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا ٧

and ˹made˺ the mountains as ˹its˺ pegs

وَخَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ أَزْوَٲجًا ٨

and created you in pairs

وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا ٩

and made your sleep for rest

وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا ١٠

and made the night as a cover

وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا ١١

and made the day for livelihood

وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا ١٢

and built above you seven mighty ˹heavens˺

وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا ١٣

and placed ˹in them˺ a shining lamp

وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُعْصِرَٲتِ مَآءً ثَجَّاجًا ١٤

and sent down from rainclouds pouring water

لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا ١٥

producing by it grain and ˹various˺ plants

وَجَنَّـٰتٍ أَلْفَافًا ١٦

and dense orchards

إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَـٰتًا ١٧

Indeed, the Day of ˹Final˺ Decision is an appointed time—

يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا ١٨

˹it is˺ the Day the Trumpet will be blown, and you will ˹all˺ come forth in crowds

وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَٲبًا ١٩

The sky will be ˹split˺ open, becoming ˹many˺ gates

وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا ٢٠

and the mountains will be blown away, becoming ˹like˺ a mirage

إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا ٢١

Indeed, Hell is lying in ambush

لِّلطَّـٰغِينَ مَـَٔـابًا ٢٢

as a home for the transgressors

لَّـٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحْقَابًا ٢٣

where they will remain for ˹endless˺ ages

لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا ٢٤

There they will not taste any coolness or drink

إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا ٢٥

except boiling water and ˹oozing˺ pus—

جَزَآءً وِفَاقًا ٢٦

a fitting reward

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا ٢٧

For they never expected any reckoning

وَكَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔـايَـٰتِنَا كِذَّابًا ٢٨

and totally rejected Our signs

وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَـٰهُ كِتَـٰبًا ٢٩

And We have everything recorded precisely

فَذُوقُواْ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ٣٠

˹So the deniers will be told,˺ “Taste ˹the punishment˺, for all you will get from Us is more torment.”

إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا ٣١

Indeed, the righteous will have salvation—

حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَـٰبًا ٣٢

Gardens, vineyards

وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا ٣٣

and full-bosomed maidens of equal age

وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا ٣٤

and full cups ˹of pure wine˺

لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّٲبًا ٣٥

never to hear any idle talk or lying therein—

جَزَآءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابًا ٣٦

a ˹fitting˺ reward as a generous gift from your Lord

رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ‌ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا ٣٧

the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between, the Most Compassionate. No one will dare speak to Him

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّا‌ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا ٣٨

on the Day the ˹holy˺ spirit and the angels will stand in ranks. None will talk, except those granted permission by the Most Compassionate and whose words are true

ذَٲلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْحَقُّ‌ۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔـابًا ٣٩

That Day is the ˹ultimate˺ truth. So let whoever wills take the path leading back to their Lord

إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَـٰكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٲبَۢا ٤٠

Indeed, We have warned you of an imminent punishment—the Day every person will see ˹the consequences of˺ what their hands have done, and the disbelievers will cry, “I wish I were dust.”
