أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ﴿٢٠﴾

Did We not create you from a base fluid

فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُ فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ﴿٢١﴾

Which We laid up in a safe abode

إِلَىٰ قَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ﴿٢٢﴾

For a known term?

فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْقَـٰدِرُونَ﴿٢٣﴾

Thus We arranged. How excellent is Our arranging!

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٢٤﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا﴿٢٥﴾

Have We not made the earth a receptacle

أَحْيَآءً وَأَمْوَٰتًا﴿٢٦﴾

Both for the living and the dead,

وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَـٰمِخَـٰتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَـٰكُم مَّآءً فُرَاتًا﴿٢٧﴾

And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein?

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٢٨﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ﴿٢٩﴾

(It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny;

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِى ثَلَـٰثِ شُعَبٍ﴿٣٠﴾

Depart unto the shadow falling threefold,

لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ﴿٣١﴾

(Which yet is) no relief nor shelter from the flame.

إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍ كَٱلْقَصْرِ﴿٣٢﴾

Lo! it throweth up sparks like the castles,

كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَـٰلَتٌ صُفْرٌ﴿٣٣﴾

(Or) as it might be camels of bright yellow hue.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٣٤﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ﴿٣٥﴾

This is a day wherein they speak not,

وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ﴿٣٦﴾

Nor are they suffered to put forth excuses.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٣٧﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

هَـٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ۖ جَمَعْنَـٰكُمْ وَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ﴿٣٨﴾

This is the Day of Decision, We have brought you and the men of old together.

فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ﴿٣٩﴾

If now ye have any wit, outwit Me.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٤٠﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى ظِلَـٰلٍ وَعُيُونٍ﴿٤١﴾

Lo! those who kept their duty are amid shade and fountains,

وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ﴿٤٢﴾

And fruits such as they desire.

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ﴿٤٣﴾

(Unto them it is said:) Eat, drink and welcome, O ye blessed, in return for what ye did.

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ﴿٤٤﴾

Thus do We reward the good.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٤٥﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

كُلُوا۟ وَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُم مُّجْرِمُونَ﴿٤٦﴾

Eat and take your ease (on earth) a little. Lo! ye are guilty.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٤٧﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱرْكَعُوا۟ لَا يَرْكَعُونَ﴿٤٨﴾

When it is said unto them: Bow down, they bow not down!

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ﴿٤٩﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ﴿٥٠﴾

In what statement, after this, will they believe?
