Abdullah Yusuf Ali Translation
1. The Sure Reality!
2. What is the Sure Reality?
3. And what
will make thee realise what the Sure Reality is?
4. The Thamud and the
'Ad People (branded) as false the Stunning Calamity!
5. But the Thamud,-
they were destroyed by a terrible Storm of thunder and lightning!
6. And
the 'Ad, they were destroyed by a furious Wind, exceedingly violent;
7.
He made it rage against them seven nights and eight days in succession: so that
thou couldst see the (whole) people lying prostrate in its (path), as they had
been roots of hollow palm-trees tumbled down!
8. Then seest thou any of
them left surviving?
9. And Pharaoh, and those before him, and the Cities
Overthrown, committed habitual Sin.
10. And disobeyed (each) the apostle
of their Lord; so He punished them with an abundant Penalty.
11. We, when
the water (of Noah's Flood) overflowed beyond its limits, carried you (mankind),
in the floating (Ark),
12. That We might make it a Message unto you, and
that ears (that should hear the tale and) retain its memory should bear its
(lessons) in remembrance.
13. Then, when one blast is sounded on the
Trumpet,
14. And the earth is moved, and its mountains, and they are
crushed to powder at one stroke,-
15. On that Day shall the (Great) Event
come to pass.
16. And the sky will be rent asunder, for it will that Day
be flimsy,
17. And the angels will be on its sides, and eight will, that
Day, bear the Throne of thy Lord above them.
18. That Day shall ye be
brought to Judgment: not an act of yours that ye hide will be hidden.
19.
Then he that will be given his Record in his right hand will say: "Ah here! Read
ye my Record!
20. "I did really understand that my Account would (One
Day) reach me!"
21. And he will be in a life of Bliss,
22. In a
Garden on high,
23. The Fruits whereof (will hang in bunches) low and
near.
24. "Eat ye and drink ye, with full satisfaction; because of the
(good) that ye sent before you, in the days that are gone!"
25. And he
that will be given his Record in his left hand, will say: "Ah! Would that my
Record had not been given to me!
26. "And that I had never realised how
my account (stood)!
27. "Ah! Would that (Death) had made an end of me!
28. "Of no profit to me has been my wealth!
29. "My power has
perished from me!"...
30. (The stern command will say): "Seize ye him,
and bind ye him,
31. "And burn ye him in the Blazing Fire.
32.
"Further, make him march in a chain, whereof the length is seventy cubits!
33. "This was he that would not believe in Allah Most High.
34. "And
would not encourage the feeding of the indigent!
35. "So no friend hath
he here this Day.
36. "Nor hath he any food except the corruption from
the washing of wounds,
37. "Which none do eat but those in sin."
38. So I do call to witness what ye see,
39. And what ye see not,
40. That this is verily the word of an honoured apostle;
41. It is not
the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!
42. Nor is it the word of a
soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.
43. (This is) a Message
sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.
44. And if the apostle were to
invent any sayings in Our name,
45. We should certainly seize him by his
right hand,
46. And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his
heart:
47. Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).
48.
But verily this is a Message for the Allah.fearing.
49. And We certainly
know that there are amongst you those that reject (it).
50. But truly
(Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers.
51. But verily it
is Truth of assured certainty.
52. So glorify the name of thy Lord Most
High.

1. ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
2. مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
3. وَمَآ
أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ
4. كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ وَعَادٌۢ
بِٱلْقَارِعَةِ
5. فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِٱلطَّاغِيَةِ
6.
وَأَمَّا عَادٌ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِرِيحٍ صَرْصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٍ
7. سَخَّرَهَا
عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَ لَيَالٍ وَثَمَٰنِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ حُسُومًا فَتَرَى ٱلْقَوْمَ
فِيهَا صَرْعَىٰ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ خَاوِيَةٍ
8. فَهَلْ تَرَىٰ
لَهُم مِّنۢ بَاقِيَةٍ
9. وَجَآءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَن قَبْلَهُۥ
وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَٰتُ بِٱلْخَاطِئَةِ
10. فَعَصَوْا۟ رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمْ
فَأَخَذَهُمْ أَخْذَةً رَّابِيَةً
11. إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا ٱلْمَآءُ
حَمَلْنَٰكُمْ فِى ٱلْجَارِيَةِ
12. لِنَجْعَلَهَا لَكُمْ تَذْكِرَةً
وَتَعِيَهَآ أُذُنٌ وَٰعِيَةٌ
13. فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ نَفْخَةٌ
وَٰحِدَةٌ
14. وَحُمِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً
وَٰحِدَةً
15. فَيَوْمَئِذٍ وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ
16.
وَٱنشَقَّتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَهِىَ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاهِيَةٌ
17. وَٱلْمَلَكُ
عَلَىٰٓ أَرْجَآئِهَا ۚ وَيَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ
ثَمَٰنِيَةٌ
18. يَوْمَئِذٍ تُعْرَضُونَ لَا تَخْفَىٰ مِنكُمْ خَافِيَةٌ
19.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ هَآؤُمُ ٱقْرَءُوا۟
كِتَٰبِيَهْ
20. إِنِّى ظَنَنتُ أَنِّى مُلَٰقٍ حِسَابِيَهْ
21.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
22. فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ
23.
قُطُوفُهَا دَانِيَةٌ
24. كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَآ
أَسْلَفْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْخَالِيَةِ
25. وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ
كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِشِمَالِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى لَمْ أُوتَ كِتَٰبِيَهْ
26.
وَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهْ
27. يَٰلَيْتَهَا كَانَتِ ٱلْقَاضِيَةَ
28.
مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنِّى مَالِيَهْ ۜ
29. هَلَكَ عَنِّى سُلْطَٰنِيَهْ
30.
خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ
31. ثُمَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ
32. ثُمَّ فِى
سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعًا فَٱسْلُكُوهُ
33. إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ
لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
34. وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ
ٱلْمِسْكِينِ
35. فَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَٰهُنَا حَمِيمٌ
36.
وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِينٍ
37. لَّا يَأْكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا
ٱلْخَٰطِـُٔونَ
38. فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ
39. وَمَا
لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
40. إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
41.
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَّا تُؤْمِنُونَ
42. وَلَا
بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ
43. تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ
ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
44. وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ ٱلْأَقَاوِيلِ
45.
لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِٱلْيَمِينِ
46. ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ ٱلْوَتِينَ
47.
فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَٰجِزِينَ
48. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ
لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ
49. وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِينَ
50.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ
51. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ
ٱلْيَقِينِ
52. فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
