حمٓ ﰀ ﴿١﴾

Ha, Meem.

وَٱلۡكِتَٰبِ ٱلۡمُبِينِ ﰁ ﴿٢﴾

By the clear Book,

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ فِي لَيۡلَةٖ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ ﰂ ﴿٣﴾

Indeed, We sent it down during a blessed night. Indeed, We were to warn [mankind].

فِيهَا يُفۡرَقُ كُلُّ أَمۡرٍ حَكِيمٍ ﰃ ﴿٤﴾

On that night is made distinct every precise matter -

أَمۡرٗا مِّنۡ عِندِنَآۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِينَ ﰄ ﴿٥﴾

[Every] matter [proceeding] from Us. Indeed, We were to send [a messenger]

رَحۡمَةٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ﰅ ﴿٦﴾

As mercy from your Lord. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ ﰆ ﴿٧﴾

Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them, if you would be certain.

لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُۖ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ﰇ ﴿٨﴾

There is no deity except Him; He gives life and causes death. [He is] your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers.

بَلۡ هُمۡ فِي شَكّٖ يَلۡعَبُونَ ﰈ ﴿٩﴾

But they are in doubt, amusing themselves.

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ يَوۡمَ تَأۡتِي ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٖ مُّبِينٖ ﰉ ﴿١٠﴾

Then watch for the Day when the sky will bring a visible smoke.

يَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ ﰊ ﴿١١﴾

Covering the people; this is a painful torment.

رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ﰋ ﴿١٢﴾

[They will say], "Our Lord, remove from us the torment; indeed, we are believers."

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ مُّبِينٞ ﰌ ﴿١٣﴾

How will there be for them a reminder [at that time]? And there had come to them a clear Messenger.

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ مُعَلَّمٞ مَّجۡنُونٌ ﰍ ﴿١٤﴾

Then they turned away from him and said, "[He was] taught [and is] a madman."

إِنَّا كَاشِفُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِيلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَآئِدُونَ ﰎ ﴿١٥﴾

Indeed, We will remove the torment for a little. Indeed, you [disbelievers] will return [to disbelief].

يَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ ﰏ ﴿١٦﴾

The Day We will strike with the greatest assault, indeed, We will take retribution.

۞ وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَجَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ كَرِيمٌ ﰐ ﴿١٧﴾

And We had already tried before them the people of Pharaoh, and there came to them a noble messenger,

أَنۡ أَدُّوٓاْ إِلَيَّ عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ ﰑ ﴿١٨﴾

[Saying], "Render to me the servants of Allah. Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger,"

وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّيٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ ﰒ ﴿١٩﴾

And [saying], "Be not haughty with Allah. Indeed, I have come to you with clear authority.

وَإِنِّي عُذۡتُ بِرَبِّي وَرَبِّكُمۡ أَن تَرۡجُمُونِ ﰓ ﴿٢٠﴾

And indeed, I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me.

وَإِن لَّمۡ تُؤۡمِنُواْ لِي فَٱعۡتَزِلُونِ ﰔ ﴿٢١﴾

But if you do not believe me, then leave me alone."

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوۡمٞ مُّجۡرِمُونَ ﰕ ﴿٢٢﴾

And [finally] he called to his Lord that these were a criminal people.

فَأَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِي لَيۡلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ﰖ ﴿٢٣﴾

[Allah said], "Then set out with My servants by night. Indeed, you are to be pursued.

وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ﰗ ﴿٢٤﴾

And leave the sea in stillness. Indeed, they are an army to be drowned."

كَمۡ تَرَكُواْ مِن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ ﰘ ﴿٢٥﴾

How much they left behind of gardens and springs

وَزُرُوعٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ ﰙ ﴿٢٦﴾

And crops and noble sites

وَنَعۡمَةٖ كَانُواْ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ ﰚ ﴿٢٧﴾

And comfort wherein they were amused.

كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِينَ ﰛ ﴿٢٨﴾

Thus. And We caused to inherit it another people.

فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنظَرِينَ ﰜ ﴿٢٩﴾

And the heaven and earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.

وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّيۡنَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِينِ ﰝ ﴿٣٠﴾

And We certainly saved the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment -

مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ ﰞ ﴿٣١﴾

From Pharaoh. Indeed, he was a haughty one among the transgressors.

وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ﰟ ﴿٣٢﴾

And We certainly chose them by knowledge over [all] the worlds.

وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَٰٓؤٞاْ مُّبِينٌ ﰠ ﴿٣٣﴾

And We gave them of signs that in which there was a clear trial.

إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَيَقُولُونَ ﰡ ﴿٣٤﴾

Indeed, these [disbelievers] are saying,

إِنۡ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ ﰢ ﴿٣٥﴾

"There is not but our first death, and we will not be resurrected.

فَأۡتُواْ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ ﰣ ﴿٣٦﴾

Then bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."

أَهُمۡ خَيۡرٌ أَمۡ قَوۡمُ تُبَّعٖ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَٰهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ مُجۡرِمِينَ ﰤ ﴿٣٧﴾

Are they better or the people of Tubba' and those before them? We destroyed them, [for] indeed, they were criminals.

وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا لَٰعِبِينَ ﰥ ﴿٣٨﴾

And We did not create the heavens and earth and that between them in play.

مَا خَلَقۡنَٰهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ﰦ ﴿٣٩﴾

We did not create them except in truth, but most of them do not know.

إِنَّ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ مِيقَٰتُهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ ﰧ ﴿٤٠﴾

Indeed, the Day of Judgement is the appointed time for them all -

يَوۡمَ لَا يُغۡنِي مَوۡلًى عَن مَّوۡلٗى شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ ﰨ ﴿٤١﴾

The Day when no relation will avail a relation at all, nor will they be helped -

إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ﰩ ﴿٤٢﴾

Except those [believers] on whom Allah has mercy. Indeed, He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ ٱلزَّقُّومِ ﰪ ﴿٤٣﴾

Indeed, the tree of zaqqum

طَعَامُ ٱلۡأَثِيمِ ﰫ ﴿٤٤﴾

Is food for the sinful.

كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ يَغۡلِي فِي ٱلۡبُطُونِ ﰬ ﴿٤٥﴾

Like murky oil, it boils within bellies

كَغَلۡيِ ٱلۡحَمِيمِ ﰭ ﴿٤٦﴾

Like the boiling of scalding water.

خُذُوهُ فَٱعۡتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ ﰮ ﴿٤٧﴾

[It will be commanded], "Seize him and drag him into the midst of the Hellfire,

ثُمَّ صُبُّواْ فَوۡقَ رَأۡسِهِۦ مِنۡ عَذَابِ ٱلۡحَمِيمِ ﰯ ﴿٤٨﴾

Then pour over his head from the torment of scalding water."

ذُقۡ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡكَرِيمُ ﰰ ﴿٤٩﴾

[It will be said], "Taste! Indeed, you are the honored, the noble!

إِنَّ هَٰذَا مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَمۡتَرُونَ ﰱ ﴿٥٠﴾

Indeed, this is what you used to dispute."

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي مَقَامٍ أَمِينٖ ﰲ ﴿٥١﴾

Indeed, the righteous will be in a secure place;

فِي جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ ﰳ ﴿٥٢﴾

Within gardens and springs,

يَلۡبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسٖ وَإِسۡتَبۡرَقٖ مُّتَقَٰبِلِينَ ﰴ ﴿٥٣﴾

Wearing [garments of] fine silk and brocade, facing each other.

كَذَٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٖ ﰵ ﴿٥٤﴾

Thus. And We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes.

يَدۡعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِينَ ﰶ ﴿٥٥﴾

They will call therein for every [kind of] fruit - safe and secure.

لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ إِلَّا ٱلۡمَوۡتَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ ﰷ ﴿٥٦﴾

They will not taste death therein except the first death, and He will have protected them from the punishment of Hellfire

فَضۡلٗا مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ ﰸ ﴿٥٧﴾

As bounty from your Lord. That is what is the great attainment.

فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرۡنَٰهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ ﰹ ﴿٥٨﴾

And indeed, We have eased the Qur'an in your tongue that they might be reminded.

فَٱرۡتَقِبۡ إِنَّهُم مُّرۡتَقِبُونَ ﰺ ﴿٥٩﴾

So watch, [O Muhammad]; indeed, they are watching [for your end].
