إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا﴿٣١﴾

Lo! for the duteous is achievement -

حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَـٰبًا﴿٣٢﴾

Gardens enclosed and vineyards,

وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا﴿٣٣﴾

And voluptuous women of equal age;

وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا﴿٣٤﴾

And a full cup.

لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّٰبًا﴿٣٥﴾

There hear they never vain discourse, nor lying -

جَزَآءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابًا﴿٣٦﴾

Requital from thy Lord - a gift in payment -

رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا﴿٣٧﴾

Lord of the heavens and the earth, and (all) that is between them, the Beneficent; with Whom none can converse.

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا﴿٣٨﴾

On the day when the angels and the Spirit stand arrayed, they speak not, saving him whom the Beneficent alloweth and who speaketh right.

ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا﴿٣٩﴾

That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.

إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَـٰكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا﴿٤٠﴾

Lo! We warn you of a doom at hand, a day whereon a man will look on that which his own hands have sent before, and the disbeliever will cry: "Would that I were dust!"

وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَـٰتِ غَرْقًا﴿١﴾

By those who drag forth to destruction,

وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَـٰتِ نَشْطًا﴿٢﴾

By the meteors rushing,

وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَـٰتِ سَبْحًا﴿٣﴾

By the lone stars floating,

فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَـٰتِ سَبْقًا﴿٤﴾

By the angels hastening,

فَٱلْمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمْرًا﴿٥﴾

And those who govern the event,

يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ﴿٦﴾

On the day when the first trump resoundeth.

تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ﴿٧﴾

And the second followeth it,

قُلُوبٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاجِفَةٌ﴿٨﴾

On that day hearts beat painfully

أَبْصَـٰرُهَا خَـٰشِعَةٌ﴿٩﴾

While eyes are downcast

يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى ٱلْحَافِرَةِ﴿١٠﴾

(Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَـٰمًا نَّخِرَةً﴿١١﴾

Even after we are crumbled bones?

قَالُوا۟ تِلْكَ إِذًا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ﴿١٢﴾

They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding.

فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ﴿١٣﴾

Surely it will need but one shout,

فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ﴿١٤﴾

And lo! they will be awakened.

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ﴿١٥﴾

Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses?
