بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ وَٱلۡمُرۡسَلَـٰتِ عُرۡفࣰا

By the loosed ones successively

فَٱلۡعَـٰصِفَـٰتِ عَصۡفࣰا

storming tempestuously

وَٱلنَّـٰشِرَ ٰ⁠تِ نَشۡرࣰا

by the scatterers scattering

فَٱلۡفَـٰرِقَـٰتِ فَرۡقࣰا

and the severally severing

فَٱلۡمُلۡقِیَـٰتِ ذِكۡرًا

and those hurling a reminder

عُذۡرًا أَوۡ نُذۡرًا

excusing or warning,

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَ ٰ⁠قِعࣱ

surely that which you are promised is about to fall!

فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتۡ

When the stars shall be extinguished,

وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ فُرِجَتۡ

when heaven shall be split

وَإِذَا ٱلۡجِبَالُ نُسِفَتۡ

when the mountains shall be scattered

وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتۡ

and when the Messengers' time is set,

لِأَیِّ یَوۡمٍ أُجِّلَتۡ

to what day shall they be delayed?

لِیَوۡمِ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ

To the Day of Decision.

وَمَاۤ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا یَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ

And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Decision?

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

أَلَمۡ نُهۡلِكِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ

Did We not destroy the ancients,

ثُمَّ نُتۡبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡـَٔاخِرِینَ

and then follow them with the later folk?

كَذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ نَفۡعَلُ بِٱلۡمُجۡرِمِینَ

So We serve the sinners.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

أَلَمۡ نَخۡلُقكُّم مِّن مَّاۤءࣲ مَّهِینࣲ

Did We not create you of a mean water,

فَجَعَلۡنَـٰهُ فِی قَرَارࣲ مَّكِینٍ

that We laid within a sure lodging

إِلَىٰ قَدَرࣲ مَّعۡلُومࣲ

till a known term decreed?

فَقَدَرۡنَا فَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡقَـٰدِرُونَ

We determined; excellent determiners are We.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَلِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ كِفَاتًا

Made We not the earth to be a housing

أَحۡیَاۤءࣰ وَأَمۡوَ ٰ⁠تࣰا

for the living and for the dead?

وَجَعَلۡنَا فِیهَا رَوَ ٰ⁠سِیَ شَـٰمِخَـٰتࣲ وَأَسۡقَیۡنَـٰكُم مَّاۤءࣰ فُرَاتࣰا

Set We not therein soaring mountains? Sated you with sweetest water?

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

ٱنطَلِقُوۤا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ

Depart to that you cried was lies!

ٱنطَلِقُوۤا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلࣲّ ذِی ثَلَـٰثِ شُعَبࣲ

Depart to a triple-massing shadow

لَّا ظَلِیلࣲ وَلَا یُغۡنِی مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ

unshading against the blazing flame

إِنَّهَا تَرۡمِی بِشَرَرࣲ كَٱلۡقَصۡرِ

that shoots sparks like dry faggots,

كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَـٰلَتࣱ صُفۡرࣱ

sparks like to golden herds.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

هَـٰذَا یَوۡمُ لَا یَنطِقُونَ

This is the day they shall not speak

وَلَا یُؤۡذَنُ لَهُمۡ فَیَعۡتَذِرُونَ

neither be given leave, and excuse themselves.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

هَـٰذَا یَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِۖ جَمَعۡنَـٰكُمۡ وَٱلۡأَوَّلِینَ

'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients;

فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمۡ كَیۡدࣱ فَكِیدُونِ

if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me!'

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ فِی ظِلَـٰلࣲ وَعُیُونࣲ

Truly the godfearing shall dwell amid shades and fountains,

وَفَوَ ٰ⁠كِهَ مِمَّا یَشۡتَهُونَ

and such fruits as their hearts desire:

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشۡرَبُوا۟ هَنِیۤـَٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

'Eat and drink, with wholesome appetite, for that you were working.'

إِنَّا كَذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ نَجۡزِی ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِینَ

Even so do We recompense the good-doers.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

كُلُوا۟ وَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ قَلِیلًا إِنَّكُم مُّجۡرِمُونَ

'Eat and take your joy a little; you are sinners!'

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

وَإِذَا قِیلَ لَهُمُ ٱرۡكَعُوا۟ لَا یَرۡكَعُونَ

When it is said to them, 'Prostrate yourselves!' they prostrate not.

وَیۡلࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ

Woe that day unto those who cry it lies!

فَبِأَیِّ حَدِیثِۭ بَعۡدَهُۥ یُؤۡمِنُونَ

In what discourse after this will they believe?
