By the Mount

52:2

وَكِتَـٰبٍ مَّسْطُورٍ

And a Scripture inscribed

52:3

فِى رَقٍّ مَّنشُورٍ

On fine parchment unrolled

52:4

وَٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْمَعْمُورِ

وَٱلسَّقْفِ ٱلْمَرْفُوعِ

And the roof exalted

52:6

وَٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْمَسْجُورِ

And the sea kept filled

52:7

إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَٰقِعٌ

مَّا لَهُۥ مِن دَافِعٍ

There is none that can ward it off

52:9

يَوْمَ تَمُورُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ مَوْرًا

On the day when the heaven will heave with (awful) heaving

52:10

وَتَسِيرُ ٱلْجِبَالُ سَيْرًا

And the mountains move away with (awful) movement

52:11

فَوَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ

Then woe that day unto the deniers

52:12

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى خَوْضٍ يَلْعَبُونَ

Who play in talk of grave matters

52:13

يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا

The day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hell

52:14

هَـٰذِهِ ٱلنَّارُ ٱلَّتِى كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ

(And it is said unto them): This is the Fire which ye were wont to deny

52:15

أَفَسِحْرٌ هَـٰذَآ أَمْ أَنتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ

Is this magic, or do ye not see

52:16

ٱصْلَوْهَا فَٱصْبِرُوٓا۟ أَوْ لَا تَصْبِرُوا۟ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ إِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

Endure the heat thereof, and whether ye are patient of it or impatient of it is all one for you. Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do

فَـٰكِهِينَ بِمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ وَوَقَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

Happy because of what their Lord hath given them, and (because) their Lord hath warded off from them the torment of hell-fire

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

(And it is said unto them): Eat and drink in health (as a reward) for what ye used to do

52:20

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍ ۖ وَزَوَّجْنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ

Reclining on ranged couches. And we wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes

52:21

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَـٰنٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَآ أَلَتْنَـٰهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ ۚ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ

And they who believe and whose seed follow them in faith, We cause their seed to join them (there), and We deprive them of nought of their (life's) work. Every man is a pledge for that which he hath earned

52:22

وَأَمْدَدْنَـٰهُم بِفَـٰكِهَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ

52:23

يَتَنَـٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌ

There they pass from hand to hand a cup wherein is neither vanity nor cause of sin

52:24

۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌ لَّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌ مَّكْنُونٌ

And there go round, waiting on them menservants of their own, as they were hidden pearls

52:25

وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

And some of them draw near unto others, questioning

52:26

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِىٓ أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ

Saying: Lo! of old, when we were with our families, we were ever anxious

52:27

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ

But Allah hath been gracious unto us and hath preserved us from the torment of the breath of Fire

52:28

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

Lo! we used to pray unto Him of old. Lo! He is the Benign, the Merciful

52:29

فَذَكِّرْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ

Therefor warn (men, O Muhammad). By the grace of Allah thou art neither soothsayer nor madman

52:30

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيْبَ ٱلْمَنُونِ

Or say they: (he is) a poet, (one) for whom we may expect the accident of time

52:31

قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ

Say (unto them): Except (your fill)! Lo! I am with you among the expectant

52:32

أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَـٰمُهُم بِهَـٰذَآ ۚ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ

Do their minds command them to do this, or are they an outrageous folk

52:33

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥ ۚ بَل لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Or say they: He hath invented it? Nay, but they will not believe

52:34

فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِحَدِيثٍ مِّثْلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَـٰدِقِينَ

Then let them produce speech the like thereof, if they are truthful

52:35

أَمْ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَىْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْخَـٰلِقُونَ

Or were they created out of naught? Or are they the creators

52:36

أَمْ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ ۚ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ

Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they are sure of nothing

52:37

أَمْ عِندَهُمْ خَزَآئِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْمُصَۣيْطِرُونَ

Or do they own the treasures of thy Lord? Or have they been given charge (thereof)

52:38

أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ ۖ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ

Or have they any stairway (unto heaven) by means of which they overhear (decrees). Then let their listener produce some warrant manifest

52:39

أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَـٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ

Or hath He daughters whereas ye have sons

52:40

أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُونَ

Or askest thou (Muhammad) a fee from them so that they are plunged in debt

52:41

أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ

Or possess they the Unseen so that they can write (it) down

52:42

أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْمَكِيدُونَ

Or seek they to ensnare (the messenger)? But those who disbelieve, they are the ensnared

52:43

أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

Or have they any god beside Allah? Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)

52:44

وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كِسْفًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًا يَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابٌ مَّرْكُومٌ

And if they were to see a fragment of the heaven falling, they would say: A heap of clouds

52:45

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَـٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ

Then let them be (O Muhammad), till they meet their day, in which they will be thunder-stricken

52:46

يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ

A day in which their guile will naught avail them, nor will they be helped

52:47

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابًا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a punishment beyond that. But most of them know not

52:48

وَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

So wait patiently (O Muhammad) for thy Lord's decree, for surely thou art in Our sight; and hymn the praise of thy Lord when thou uprisest

52:49

وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَـٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ

And in the night-time also hymn His praise, and at the setting of the stars
