50 Qaaf -Qaaf
In the Name of Allah, the
Merciful, the Most Merciful
[50.1] Qaaf. By the Glorious Koran!
[50.2] No, but they marvel that from among themselves a
warner has come to them. The unbelievers say (in mockery): 'This is a marvelous
thing!
[50.3] What, when we are dead and turned to dust? That
indeed would be an unlikely return! '
[50.4] We know all that the earth takes away of them,
and a Book of Records is with Us.
[50.5] Rather, they belied the truth when it came to
them, and now they are in a state of confusion.
[50.6] What, have they never observed the heaven above
them, (and seen) how We built and adorned it, leaving no crack?
[50.7] We spread out the earth and set upon it firm
mountains, and We cause every delightful thing to grow in it
[50.8] as a lesson and a reminder to every penitent
worshiper.
[50.9] We sent down blessed water from the sky with
which We caused gardens and the grains of harvest to grow, 10 and tall palmtrees with compact spathes
[50.11] as a provision for the worshipers; thereby We
revived a land that was dead. Such shall be the emerging.
[50.12] Before them, the nation of Noah, the nation of
ArRass belied and so did Thamood
[50.13] and Aad, Pharaoh and the brothers of
[50.14] the dwellers of the Thicket and the nation of
Tubba', all belied their Messengers, therefore My threat was realized.
[50.15] What, were We wearied by the first creation? No,
indeed; yet they are in doubt about a new creation.
[50.16] Indeed, We created the human. We know the
whisperings of his soul, and are closer to him than the jugular vein.
[50.17] When both receivers (the angels) receive, one on
his right, the other on his left,
[50.18] whatever phrase he utters, an observer is
present.
[50.19] And when the agony of death comes in truth (they
will say): 'This is what you have been trying to avoid! '
[50.20] And the Horn shall be blown; that is the Day of
Threat!
[50.21] Each soul shall come with a driver, and a
witness.
[50.22] (It will be said): 'Of this you have been
heedless. Therefore, we have now removed your covering. Today your sight is
sharp. '
[50.23] And his companion will say: 'This is that which
I have present. '
[50.24] (It will be said): 'Indeed, cast into Gehenna
(Hell) every deviating unbeliever,
[50.25] forbidder of good, transgressor and doubter,
[50.26] who has set up with Allah another god. Indeed,
you two, cast him into the terrible punishment. '
[50.27] And his companion shall say: 'Our Lord, I did
not make him insolent, he was far astray. '
[50.28] He (Allah) will say: 'Do not dispute before Me.
I sent you a warning beforehand.
[50.29] The Word cannot be changed with Me; I do not
wrong My worshipers. '
[50.30] On that Day We shall ask Gehenna: 'Are you full?
' And it will answer: 'Are there any more? '
[50.31] And
[50.32] (It shall be said to them): 'This is that you
were promised. It is for every heeding penitent.
[50.33] Whosoever fears the Merciful in the Unseen, and
comes with a contrite heart.
[50.34] Enter it in peace. This is the Day of Eternity!
'
[50.35] There they have all that they desire, and with
Us is much more.
[50.36] How many generations, stronger in might than
they have We destroyed before them! They searched the land, could they find any
asylum?
[50.37] Surely, in this there is a Reminder for he who
has a heart or listens attentively while witnessing.
[50.38] In six days We created the heavens and the earth
and all that is between them and no weariness touched Us!
[50.39] Bear then with patience what they say. Exalt
with the praise of your Lord before sunrise and before sunset.
[50.40] And exalt Him in the night, and at the ends of
the prostrations.
[50.41] Listen for the Day when the Caller will call
from a nearby place.
[50.42] On the Day when they will hear the Shout, in
truth that Day they will emerge.
[50.
43] It is We who give life and make to die. To
Us is the arrival.
[50.44] Upon that Day the earth will be rent asunder
from around them as they hurry forth that is an easy gathering for Us.
[50.45] Indeed, We know what they say. You (Prophet
Muhammad) are not a tyrant over them. Therefore, remind by the Koran whosoever
fears (My) threat.
