Al-Insan
( 1 )
Has there [not] come upon man a period of time when he was not a thing [even]
mentioned?
( 2 )
Indeed, We created man from a sperm-drop mixture that We may try him; and We
made him hearing and seeing.
( 3 )
Indeed, We guided him to the way, be he grateful or be he ungrateful.
( 4 )
Indeed, We have prepared for the disbelievers chains and shackles and a blaze.
( 5 )
Indeed, the righteous will drink from a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of
Kafur,
( 6 )
A spring of which the [righteous] servants of Allah will drink; they will make
it gush forth in force [and abundance].
( 7 )
They [are those who] fulfill [their] vows and fear a Day whose evil will be
widespread.
( 8 )
And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the
captive,
( 9 )
[Saying], "We feed you only for the countenance of Allah. We wish not from
you reward or gratitude.
( 10 )
Indeed, We fear from our Lord a Day austere and distressful."
( 11 )
So Allah will protect them from the evil of that Day and give them
radiance and happiness
( 12 )
And will reward them for what they patiently endured [with] a garden [in
Paradise] and silk [garments].
( 13 )
[They will be] reclining therein on adorned couches. They will not see
therein any [burning] sun or [freezing] cold.
( 14 )
And near above them are its shades, and its [fruit] to be picked will be
lowered in compliance.
( 15 )
And there will be circulated among them vessels of silver and cups having been
[created] clear [as glass],
( 16 )
Clear glasses [made] from silver of which they have determined the
measure.
( 17 )
And they will be given to drink a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of
ginger
( 18 )
[From] a fountain within Paradise named Salsabeel.
( 19 )
There will circulate among them young boys made eternal. When you see
them, you would think them [as beautiful as] scattered pearls.
( 20 )
And when you look there [in Paradise], you will see pleasure and great
dominion.
( 21 )
Upon the inhabitants will be green garments of fine silk and brocade.
And they will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give
them a purifying drink.
( 22 )
[And it will be said], "Indeed, this is for you a reward, and your
effort has been appreciated."
( 23 )
Indeed, it is We who have sent down to you, [O Muhammad], the Qur'an
progressively.
( 24 )
So be patient for the decision of your Lord and do not obey from among
them a sinner or ungrateful [disbeliever].
( 25 )
And mention the name of your Lord [in prayer] morning and evening
( 26 )
And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the]
night.
( 27 )
Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate and leave behind them a
grave Day.
( 28 )
We have created them and strengthened their forms, and when We will, We
can change their likenesses with [complete] alteration.
( 29 )
Indeed, this is a reminder, so he who wills may take to his Lord a way.
( 30 )
And you do not will except that Allah wills. Indeed, Allah is ever
Knowing and Wise.
( 31 )
He admits whom He wills into His mercy; but the wrongdoers - He has
prepared for them a painful punishment.
Al-Mursalat
( 1 )
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts
( 2 )
And the winds that blow violently
( 3 )
And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]
( 4 )
And those [angels] who bring criterion
( 5 )
And those [angels] who deliver a message
( 6 )
As justification or warning,
( 7 )
Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.
( 8 )
So when the stars are obliterated
( 9 )
And when the heaven is opened
( 10 )
And when the mountains are blown away
( 11 )
And when the messengers' time has come...
( 12 )
For what Day was it postponed?
( 13 )
For the Day of Judgement.
( 14 )
And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement?
( 15 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 16 )
Did We not destroy the former peoples?
( 17 )
Then We will follow them with the later ones.
( 18 )
Thus do We deal with the criminals.
( 19 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 20 )
Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?
( 21 )
And We placed it in a firm lodging
( 22 )
For a known extent.
( 23 )
And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine.
( 24 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 25 )
Have We not made the earth a container
( 26 )
Of the living and the dead?
( 27 )
And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to
drink sweet water.
( 28 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 29 )
[They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny.
( 30 )
Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns
( 31 )
[But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame."
( 32 )
Indeed, it throws sparks [as huge] as a fortress,
( 33 )
As if they were yellowish [black] camels.
( 34 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 35 )
This is a Day they will not speak,
( 36 )
Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse.
( 37 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 38 )
This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former
peoples.
( 39 )
So if you have a plan, then plan against Me.
( 40 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 41 )
Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs
( 42 )
And fruits from whatever they desire,
( 43 )
[Being told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to
do."
( 44 )
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
( 45 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 46 )
[O disbelievers], eat and enjoy yourselves a little; indeed, you are
criminals.
( 47 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 48 )
And when it is said to them, "Bow [in prayer]," they do not
bow.
( 49 )
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
( 50 )
Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe?
An-Nabaa
( 1 )
About what are they asking one another?
( 2 )
About the great news -
( 3 )
That over which they are in disagreement.
( 4 )
No! They are going to know.
( 5 )
Then, no! They are going to know.
( 6 )
Have We not made the earth a resting place?
( 7 )
And the mountains as stakes?
( 8 )
And We created you in pairs
( 9 )
And made your sleep [a means for] rest
( 10 )
And made the night as clothing
( 11 )
And made the day for livelihood
( 12 )
And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]
( 13 )
And made [therein] a burning lamp
( 14 )
And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water
( 15 )
That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation
( 16 )
And gardens of entwined growth.
( 17 )
Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time -
( 18 )
The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes
( 19 )
And the heaven is opened and will become gateways
( 20 )
And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage.
( 21 )
Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait
( 22 )
For the transgressors, a place of return,
( 23 )
In which they will remain for ages [unending].
( 24 )
They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink
( 25 )
Except scalding water and [foul] purulence -
( 26 )
An appropriate recompense.
( 27 )
Indeed, they were not expecting an account
( 28 )
And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial.
( 29 )
But all things We have enumerated in writing.
( 30 )
"So taste [the penalty], and never will We increase you except in
torment."
( 31 )
Indeed, for the righteous is attainment -
( 32 )
Gardens and grapevines
( 33 )
And full-breasted [companions] of equal age
( 34 )
And a full cup.
( 35 )
No ill speech will they hear therein or any falsehood -
( 36 )
[As] reward from your Lord, [a generous] gift [made due by] account,
( 37 )
[From] the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between
them, the Most Merciful. They possess not from Him [authority for] speech.
( 38 )
The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows, they will not
speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is
correct.
( 39 )
That is the True Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord a [way of]
return.
( 40 )
Indeed, We have warned you of a near punishment on the Day when a man
will observe what his hands have put forth and the disbeliever will say,
"Oh, I wish that I were dust!"
