Al-Haqqah (The Reality)

﴿١﴾  ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
1.  The Reality!
﴿٢﴾  مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
2.  What is the Reality?
﴿٣﴾  وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
3.  Ah, what will convey unto thee what the reality is!
﴿٤﴾  كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ وَعَادٌۢ بِٱلْقَارِعَةِ
4.  (The tribes of) Thamud and Aad disbelieved in the judgment to come.
﴿٥﴾  فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِٱلطَّاغِيَةِ
5.  As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the lightning.
﴿٦﴾  وَأَمَّا عَادٌ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِرِيحٍ صَرْصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٍ
6.  And as for Aad, they were destroyed by a fierce roaring wind,
﴿٧﴾  سَخَّرَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَ لَيَالٍ وَثَمَـٰنِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ حُسُومًا فَتَرَى ٱلْقَوْمَ فِيهَا صَرْعَىٰ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ خَاوِيَةٍ
7.  Which He imposed on them for seven long nights and eight long days so that thou mightest have seen men lying overthrown, as they were hollow trunks of palm trees.
﴿٨﴾  فَهَلْ تَرَىٰ لَهُم مِّنۢ بَاقِيَةٍ
8.  Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them?
﴿٩﴾  وَجَآءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَن قَبْلَهُۥ وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَـٰتُ بِٱلْخَاطِئَةِ
9.  And Pharaoh and those before him, and the communities that were destroyed, brought error,
﴿١٠﴾  فَعَصَوْا۟ رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَهُمْ أَخْذَةً رَّابِيَةً
10.  And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, therefor did He grip them with a tightening grip.
﴿١١﴾  إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا ٱلْمَآءُ حَمَلْنَـٰكُمْ فِى ٱلْجَارِيَةِ
11.  Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the ship
﴿١٢﴾  لِنَجْعَلَهَا لَكُمْ تَذْكِرَةً وَتَعِيَهَآ أُذُنٌ وَٰعِيَةٌ
12.  That We might make it a memorial for you, and that remembering ears (that heard the story) might remember.
﴿١٣﴾  فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ نَفْخَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ
13.  And when the trumpet shall sound one blast
﴿١٤﴾  وَحُمِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَٰحِدَةً
14.  And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
﴿١٥﴾  فَيَوْمَئِذٍ وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ
15.  Then, on that day will the Event befall.
﴿١٦﴾  وَٱنشَقَّتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَهِىَ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاهِيَةٌ
16.  And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.
﴿١٧﴾  وَٱلْمَلَكُ عَلَىٰٓ أَرْجَآئِهَا وَيَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَمَـٰنِيَةٌ
17.  And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne of their Lord that day, above them.
﴿١٨﴾  يَوْمَئِذٍ تُعْرَضُونَ لَا تَخْفَىٰ مِنكُمْ خَافِيَةٌ
18.  On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden.
﴿١٩﴾  فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ هَآؤُمُ ٱقْرَءُوا۟ كِتَـٰبِيَهْ
19.  Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book!
﴿٢٠﴾  إِنِّى ظَنَنتُ أَنِّى مُلَـٰقٍ حِسَابِيَهْ
20.  Surely I knew that I should have to meet my reckoning.
﴿٢١﴾  فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
21.  Then he will be in blissful state
﴿٢٢﴾  فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ
22.  In a high Garden
﴿٢٣﴾  قُطُوفُهَا دَانِيَةٌ
23.  Whereof the clusters are in easy reach.
﴿٢٤﴾  كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَآ أَسْلَفْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْخَالِيَةِ
24.  (And it will be said unto those therein): Eat and drink at ease for that which ye sent on before you in past days.
﴿٢٥﴾  وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِشِمَالِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى لَمْ أُوتَ كِتَـٰبِيَهْ
25.  But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say: Oh, would that I had not been given my book
﴿٢٦﴾  وَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهْ
26.  And knew not what my reckoning!
﴿٢٧﴾  يَـٰلَيْتَهَا كَانَتِ ٱلْقَاضِيَةَ
27.  Oh, would that it had been death!
﴿٢٨﴾  مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنِّى مَالِيَهْ
28.  My wealth hath not availed me,
﴿٢٩﴾  هَلَكَ عَنِّى سُلْطَـٰنِيَهْ
29.  My power hath gone from me.
﴿٣٠﴾  خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ
30.  (It will be said): Take him and fetter him
﴿٣١﴾  ثُمَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ
31.  And then expose him to hell fire
﴿٣٢﴾  ثُمَّ فِى سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعًا فَٱسْلُكُوهُ
32.  And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits.
﴿٣٣﴾  إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
33.  Lo! he used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous,
﴿٣٤﴾  وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ
34.  And urged not on the feeding of the wretched,
﴿٣٥﴾  فَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَـٰهُنَا حَمِيمٌ
35.  Therefor hath he no lover here this day,
﴿٣٦﴾  وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِينٍ
36.  Nor any food save filth
﴿٣٧﴾  لَّا يَأْكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْخَـٰطِـُٔونَ
37.  Which none but sinners eat.
﴿٣٨﴾  فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ
38.  But nay! I swear by all that ye see
﴿٣٩﴾  وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
39.  And all that ye see not
﴿٤٠﴾  إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
40.  That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
﴿٤١﴾  وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ قَلِيلًا مَّا تُؤْمِنُونَ
41.  It is not poet's speech--little is it that ye believe!
﴿٤٢﴾  وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ
42.  Nor diviner's speech--little is it that ye remember!
﴿٤٣﴾  تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
43.  It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
﴿٤٤﴾  وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ ٱلْأَقَاوِيلِ
44.  And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
﴿٤٥﴾  لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِٱلْيَمِينِ
45.  We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
﴿٤٦﴾  ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ ٱلْوَتِينَ
46.  And then severed his life artery,
﴿٤٧﴾  فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَـٰجِزِينَ
47.  And not one of you could have held Us off from him.
﴿٤٨﴾  وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ
48.  And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).
﴿٤٩﴾  وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِينَ
49.  And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).
﴿٥٠﴾  وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ
50.  And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.
﴿٥١﴾  وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ
51.  And lo! it is absolute truth.
﴿٥٢﴾  فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
52.  So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord.
