An-Nazi'at

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَـٰتِ غَرْقًا

By those who drag forth to destruction

وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَـٰتِ نَشْطًا

By the meteors rushing

وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَـٰتِ سَبْحًا

By the lone stars floating

فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَـٰتِ سَبْقًا

By the angels hastening

فَٱلْمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمْرًا

And those who govern the event

يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ

On the day when the first trump resoundeth

تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ

And the second followeth it

قُلُوبٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاجِفَةٌ

On that day hearts beat painfully

أَبْصَـٰرُهَا خَـٰشِعَةٌ

While eyes are downcast

يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى ٱلْحَافِرَةِ

(Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَـٰمًا نَّخِرَةً

Even after we are crumbled bones

قَالُوا۟ تِلْكَ إِذًا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ

They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding

فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ

Surely it will need but one shout

فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ

And lo! they will be awakened

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ

Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses

إِذْ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى

How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa

ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ

(Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled

فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ

And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace)

وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ

Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him)

فَأَرَىٰهُ ٱلْـَٔايَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ

And he showed him the tremendous token

فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ

But he denied and disobeyed

ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَىٰ

Then turned he away in haste

فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ

Then gathered he and summoned

فَقَالَ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ

And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest

فَأَخَذَهُ ٱللَّهُ نَكَالَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ وَٱلْأُولَىٰٓ

So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former

إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ

Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth

ءَأَنتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ ۚ بَنَىٰهَا

Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built

رَفَعَ سَمْكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا

He raised the height thereof and ordered it

وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا

And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof

وَٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ

And after that He spread the earth

أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَآءَهَا وَمَرْعَىٰهَا

And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof

وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَرْسَىٰهَا

And He made fast the hills

مَتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ

A provision for you and for your cattle

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلطَّآمَّةُ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ

But when the great disaster cometh

يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ

The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour

وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ

And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth

فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ

Then, as for him who rebelled

وَءَاثَرَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا

And chose the life of the world

فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ

Lo! hell will be his home

وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفْسَ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ

But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust

فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ

Lo! the Garden will be his home

يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا

They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port

فِيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكْرَىٰهَآ

Why (ask they)? What hast thou to tell thereof

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهَىٰهَآ

Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof

إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُنذِرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰهَا

Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it

كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَهَا لَمْ يَلْبَثُوٓا۟ إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحَىٰهَا

On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof
