إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ۝١

1When the great event comes to pass,

لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ۝٢

2There is no belying its coming to pass--

خَافِضَةٌ رَّافِعَةٌ۝٣

3Abasing (one party), exalting (the other),

إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّا۝٤

4When the earth shall be shaken with a (severe) shaking,

وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّا۝٥

5And the mountains shall be made to crumble with (an awful) crumbling,

فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءً مُّنۢبَثًّا۝٦

6So that they shall be as scattered dust.

وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا ثَلَٰثَةً۝٧

7And you shall be three sorts.

فَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ۝٨

8Then (as to) the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand!

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ۝٩

9And (as to) the companions of the left hand; how wretched are the companions of the left hand!

وَٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ۝١٠

10And the foremost are the foremost,

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ۝١١

11These are they who are drawn nigh (to Allah),

فِى جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ۝١٢

12In the gardens of bliss.

ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ۝١٣

13A numerous company from among the first,

وَقَلِيلٌ مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ۝١٤

14And a few from among the latter.

عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّوْضُونَةٍ۝١٥

15On thrones decorated,

مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ۝١٦

16Reclining on them, facing one another.

يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ۝١٧

17Round about them shall go youths never altering in age,

بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ۝١٨

18With goblets and ewers and a cup of pure drink;

لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ۝١٩

19They shall not be affected with headache thereby, nor shall they get exhausted,

وَفَٰكِهَةٍ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ۝٢٠

20And fruits such as they choose,

وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ۝٢١

21And the flesh of fowl such as they desire.

وَحُورٌ عِينٌ۝٢٢

22And pure, beautiful ones,

كَأَمْثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ۝٢٣

23The like of the hidden pearls:

جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ۝٢٤

24A reward for what they used to do.

لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا۝٢٥

25They shall not hear therein vain or sinful discourse,

إِلَّا قِيلًا سَلَٰمًا سَلَٰمًا۝٢٦

26Except the word peace, peace.

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ۝٢٧

27And the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand!

فِى سِدْرٍ مَّخْضُودٍ۝٢٨

28Amid thornless lote-trees,

وَطَلْحٍ مَّنضُودٍ۝٢٩

29And banana-trees (with fruits), one above another.

وَظِلٍّ مَّمْدُودٍ۝٣٠

30And extended shade,

وَمَآءٍ مَّسْكُوبٍ۝٣١

31And water flowing constantly,

وَفَٰكِهَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ۝٣٢

32And abundant fruit,

لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍ۝٣٣

33Neither intercepted nor forbidden,

وَفُرُشٍ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ۝٣٤

34And exalted thrones.

إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءً۝٣٥

35Surely We have made them to grow into a (new) growth,

فَجَعَلْنَٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا۝٣٦

36Then We have made them virgins,

عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًا۝٣٧

37Loving, equals in age,

لِّأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ۝٣٨

38For the sake of the companions of the right hand.

ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ۝٣٩

39A numerous company from among the first,

وَثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ۝٤٠

40And a numerous company from among the last.

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ۝٤١

41And those of the left hand, how wretched are those of the left hand!

فِى سَمُومٍ وَحَمِيمٍ۝٤٢

42In hot wind and boiling water,

وَظِلٍّ مِّن يَحْمُومٍ۝٤٣

43And the shade of black smoke,

لَّا بَارِدٍ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ۝٤٤

44Neither cool nor honorable.

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ۝٤٥

45Surely they were before that made to live in ease and plenty.

وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ۝٤٦

46And they persisted in the great violation.

وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ۝٤٧

47And they used to say: What! when we die and have become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised?

أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ۝٤٨

48Or our fathers of yore?

قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ۝٤٩

49Say: The first and the last,

لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَٰتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ۝٥٠

50Shall most surely be gathered together for the appointed hour of a known day.

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبُونَ۝٥١

51Then shall you, O you who err and call it a lie!

لَـَٔاكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٍ مِّن زَقُّومٍ۝٥٢

52Most surely eat of a tree of Zaqqoom,

فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ۝٥٣

53And fill (your) bellies with it;

فَشَٰرِبُونَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْحَمِيمِ۝٥٤

54Then drink over it of boiling water;

فَشَٰرِبُونَ شُرْبَ ٱلْهِيمِ۝٥٥

55And drink as drinks the thirsty camel.

هَٰذَا نُزُلُهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ۝٥٦

56This is their entertainment on the day of requital.

نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ۝٥٧

57We have created you, why do you not then assent?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تُمْنُونَ۝٥٨

58Have you considered the seed?

ءَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُونَ۝٥٩

59Is it you that create it or are We the creators?

نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ۝٦٠

60We have ordained death among you and We are not to be overcome,

عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَٰلَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِى مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ۝٦١

61In order that We may bring in your place the likes of you and make you grow into what you know not.

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ۝٦٢

62And certainly you know the first growth, why do you not then mind?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ۝٦٣

63Have you considered what you sow?

ءَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلزَّٰرِعُونَ۝٦٤

64Is it you that cause it to grow, or are We the causers of growth?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَٰهُ حُطَٰمًا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ۝٦٥

65If We pleased, We should have certainly made it broken down into pieces, then would you begin to lament:

إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ۝٦٦

66Surely we are burdened with debt:

بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ۝٦٧

67Nay! we are deprived.

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلْمَآءَ ٱلَّذِى تَشْرَبُونَ۝٦٨

68Have you considered the water which you drink?

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنزِلُونَ۝٦٩

69Is it you that send it down from the clouds, or are We the senders?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنَٰهُ أُجَاجًا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ۝٧٠

70If We pleased, We would have made it salty; why do you not then give thanks?

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِى تُورُونَ۝٧١

71Have you considered the fire which you strike?

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنشِـُٔونَ۝٧٢

72Is it you that produce the trees for it, or are We the producers?

نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَٰهَا تَذْكِرَةً وَمَتَٰعًا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ۝٧٣

73We have made it a reminder and an advantage for the wayfarers of the desert.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ۝٧٤

74Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.

فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ۝٧٥

75But nay! I swear by the falling of stars;

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ۝٧٦

76And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew;

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرْءَانٌ كَرِيمٌ۝٧٧

77Most surely it is an honored Quran,

فِى كِتَٰبٍ مَّكْنُونٍ۝٧٨

78In a book that is protected

لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْمُطَهَّرُونَ۝٧٩

79None shall touch it save the purified ones.

تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ۝٨٠

80A revelation by the Lord of the worlds.

أَفَبِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ۝٨١

81Do you then hold this announcement in contempt?

وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ۝٨٢

82And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence.

فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ۝٨٣

83Why is it not then that when it (soul) comes up to the throat,

وَأَنتُمْ حِينَئِذٍ تَنظُرُونَ۝٨٤

84And you at that time look on--

وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ۝٨٥

85And We are nearer to it than you, but you do not see--

فَلَوْلَآ إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ۝٨٦

86Then why is it not-- if you are not held under authority--

تَرْجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ۝٨٧

87That you send it (not) back-- if you are truthful?

فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ۝٨٨

88Then if he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah),

فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ۝٨٩

89Then happiness and bounty and a garden of bliss.

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ۝٩٠

90And if he is one of those on the right hand,

فَسَلَٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ۝٩١

91Then peace to you from those on the right hand.

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ۝٩٢

92And if he is one of the rejecters, the erring ones,

فَنُزُلٌ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ۝٩٣

93He shall have an entertainment of boiling water,

وَتَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ۝٩٤

94And burning in hell.

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ۝٩٥

95Most surely this is a certain truth.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ۝٩٦

96Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
