إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَٰقِعٞ

The punishment of your Lord will surely come to pass;

آية: 8

مَّا لَهُۥ مِن دَافِعٖ

there is none who can avert it.

آية: 9

يَوۡمَ تَمُورُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ مَوۡرٗا

On the Day when the heaven will convulse violently^[6],

[6] The heavens will be shaken violently, indicating the occurrence of the Hour. The word "maur" originally means turning round, rotating, swinging, swaying, etc.

آية: 10

وَتَسِيرُ ٱلۡجِبَالُ سَيۡرٗا

and the mountains will move a horrible movement^[7].

[7] They will turn into dust, moving as clouds.

آية: 11

فَوَيۡلٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Then woe to the deniers on that Day,

آية: 12

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ فِي خَوۡضٖ يَلۡعَبُونَ

those who amuse themselves in falsehood.

آية: 13

يَوۡمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا

آية: 15

أَفَسِحۡرٌ هَٰذَآ أَمۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ

Is this [punishment] magic, or do you not see?

ٱصۡلَوۡهَا فَٱصۡبِرُوٓاْ أَوۡ لَا تَصۡبِرُواْ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡۖ إِنَّمَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

Burn in it, whether you bear it patiently or impatiently, it makes no difference to you^[8]; you are recompensed only for what you used to do.”

[8] He who is patient during afflictions in the life of this world will be rewarded. As for the Hereafter, suffering patiently in Hell will not bring any reward or benefit.

Indeed, the righteous will be in gardens and bliss,

آية: 18

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٖ مَّصۡفُوفَةٖۖ وَزَوَّجۡنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٖ

آية: 21

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَٱتَّبَعَتۡهُمۡ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَٰنٍ أَلۡحَقۡنَا بِهِمۡ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمۡ وَمَآ أَلَتۡنَٰهُم مِّنۡ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَيۡءٖۚ كُلُّ ٱمۡرِيِٕۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٞ

As for those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will cause their offspring to join them, and will not detract anything from [the reward of] their deeds. Everyone will be accountable for what he earned^[9].

[9] i.e., None will be held responsible for the burden of another.

آية: 22

وَأَمۡدَدۡنَٰهُم بِفَٰكِهَةٖ وَلَحۡمٖ مِّمَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ

And We will provide them with whatever fruit and meat they desire.

آية: 23

يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأۡسٗا لَّا لَغۡوٞ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأۡثِيمٞ

They will be served by their servant boys, as if they were well-protected pearls.

آية: 25

وَأَقۡبَلَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

They will turn to one another with questions^[10].

[10] They will probably ask one another about their worldly lives and what led them to Paradise.

آية: 26

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبۡلُ فِيٓ أَهۡلِنَا مُشۡفِقِينَ

They will say, “Before this, we used to be in awe [of Allah] when we were living among our people.

آية: 27

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ

Therefore Allah conferred favor upon us and protected us from the punishment of the Scorching Fire.

آية: 28

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبۡلُ نَدۡعُوهُۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

Indeed, we used to call upon Him before. He is indeed the Most Kind, the Most Merciful.”

فَذَكِّرۡ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٖ وَلَا مَجۡنُونٍ

So keep exhorting [O Prophet], for you are not, by the grace of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman.

آية: 30

أَمۡ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٞ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيۡبَ ٱلۡمَنُونِ

Or do they say: “He is a poet for whom we await a misfortune^[11]”?

[11] i.e., inevitable death or so.

آية: 31

قُلۡ تَرَبَّصُواْ فَإِنِّي مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُتَرَبِّصِينَ

Say, “Wait, I too am waiting with you.”

آية: 32

أَمۡ تَأۡمُرُهُمۡ أَحۡلَٰمُهُم بِهَٰذَآۚ أَمۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمٞ طَاغُونَ

Do their minds^[12] prompt them to say such things, or are they transgressing people?

[12] The leaders of pagans in Makkah claimed to be of great minds. Here it questions their intelligence, arguing that a man cannot be a madman and a poet at the same time.

آية: 33

أَمۡ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥۚ بَل لَّا يُؤۡمِنُونَ

Or do they say, “He has made this [Qur’an] up”? Rather, they are not willing to believe.

آية: 34

فَلۡيَأۡتُواْ بِحَدِيثٖ مِّثۡلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُواْ صَٰدِقِينَ

Then let them produce a discourse like this, if they are truthful^[13].

[13] Arab pagans were challenged to produce the like of this Quran, ten surahs, or one surah, but the challenge has never been met until the present day. See 2:23, 11:13, 52:34.

آية: 35

أَمۡ خُلِقُواْ مِنۡ غَيۡرِ شَيۡءٍ أَمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقُونَ

Were they created by none, or were they the creators [of themselves]?

آية: 36

أَمۡ خَلَقُواْ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَۚ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ

Or did they create the heavens and earth? Rather, they are not certain in faith.

آية: 37

أَمۡ عِندَهُمۡ خَزَآئِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡمُصَۜيۡطِرُونَ

Or do they possess the treasures of your Lord, or do they have full control [of everything]?

آية: 38

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ سُلَّمٞ يَسۡتَمِعُونَ فِيهِۖ فَلۡيَأۡتِ مُسۡتَمِعُهُم بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٍ

Or do they have a stairway [to the heaven] by which they eavesdrop? Then let those who eavesdrop produce a compelling proof.

آية: 39

أَمۡ لَهُ ٱلۡبَنَٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ

Or does He have daughters while you have sons^[14]?

[14] See footnote 37:149.

آية: 40

أَمۡ تَسۡـَٔلُهُمۡ أَجۡرٗا فَهُم مِّن مَّغۡرَمٖ مُّثۡقَلُونَ

Or are you asking them [O Prophet] for a reward so they are overburdened by debt?

آية: 41

أَمۡ عِندَهُمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبُ فَهُمۡ يَكۡتُبُونَ

Or do they have [the knowledge of] the unseen so they are writing it down?

آية: 42

أَمۡ يُرِيدُونَ كَيۡدٗاۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡمَكِيدُونَ

Or do they intend a plot [against the Prophet]? But the plot of the disbelievers will rebound against themselves.

آية: 43

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ إِلَٰهٌ غَيۡرُ ٱللَّهِۚ سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُونَ

Or do they have a god other than Allah? Glory be to Allah far above what they associate with Him.

آية: 44

وَإِن يَرَوۡاْ كِسۡفٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطٗا يَقُولُواْ سَحَابٞ مَّرۡكُومٞ

If they were to see pieces of the sky falling down^[15], they would still say, “[This is only] a mass of clouds.”

[15] As a sign of the punishment that they requested.

آية: 45

فَذَرۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُواْ يَوۡمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ يُصۡعَقُونَ

So leave them alone until they encounter their Day in which they will be struck down^[16],

[16] i.e., they will be punished on the Day of Judgment.

آية: 46

يَوۡمَ لَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُمۡ كَيۡدُهُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ

the Day their plots will not avail them in the least, nor will they be helped.

آية: 47

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ عَذَابٗا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

And for the wrongdoers, there will be another punishment before that^[17], but most of them do not know.

[17] In this world such as famine, droughts, or defeat at the battle, or punishment in the grave.

آية: 48

وَٱصۡبِرۡ لِحُكۡمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعۡيُنِنَاۖ وَسَبِّحۡ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

Be patient [O Prophet] with your Lord’s decree, for indeed you are under Our [Watchful] Eyes. And glorify the praises of your Lord when you rise.

آية: 49

وَمِنَ ٱلَّيۡلِ فَسَبِّحۡهُ وَإِدۡبَٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ

And glorify Him at night and when the stars fade away^[18].

[18] i.e., the early hours of the morning when the stars set; the time of the Fajr Prayer.
