By the Mount,
2

وَكِتَٰبٍ مَّسْطُورٍ

Pickthall

And a Scripture inscribed
3

فِى رَقٍّ مَّنشُورٍ

Pickthall

On fine parchment unrolled,
4

وَٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْمَعْمُورِ

Pickthall

And the House frequented,
5

وَٱلسَّقْفِ ٱلْمَرْفُوعِ

Pickthall

And the roof exalted,
6

وَٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْمَسْجُورِ

Pickthall

And the sea kept filled,
7

إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَٰقِعٌ

Pickthall

Lo! the doom of thy Lord will surely come to pass;
8

مَّا لَهُۥ مِن دَافِعٍ

Pickthall

There is none that can ward it off.
9

يَوْمَ تَمُورُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ مَوْرًا

Pickthall

On the day when the heaven will heave with (awful) heaving,
10

وَتَسِيرُ ٱلْجِبَالُ سَيْرًا

Pickthall

And the mountains move away with (awful) movement,
11

فَوَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ

Pickthall

Then woe that day unto the deniers
12

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى خَوْضٍ يَلْعَبُونَ

Pickthall

Who play in talk of grave matters;
13

يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا

Pickthall

The day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hell
14

هَٰذِهِ ٱلنَّارُ ٱلَّتِى كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ

Pickthall

(And it is said unto them): This is the Fire which ye were wont to deny.
15

أَفَسِحْرٌ هَٰذَآ أَمْ أَنتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ

Pickthall

Is this magic, or do ye not see?
16

ٱصْلَوْهَا فَٱصْبِرُوٓا۟ أَوْ لَا تَصْبِرُوا۟ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

Endure the heat thereof, and whether ye are patient of it or impatient of it is all one for you. Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do.

Lo! those who kept their duty dwell in gardens and delight,
18

فَٰكِهِينَ بِمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ وَوَقَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

Pickthall

Happy because of what their Lord hath given them, and (because) their Lord hath warded off from them the torment of hell-fire.
19

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

Pickthall

(And it is said unto them): Eat and drink in health (as a reward) for what ye used to do,
20

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍ وَزَوَّجْنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ

Pickthall

Reclining on ranged couches. And we wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes.
21

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَٰنٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَآ أَلَتْنَٰهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ

Pickthall

And they who believe and whose seed follow them in faith, We cause their seed to join them (there), and We deprive them of nought of their (life's) work. Every man is a pledge for that which he hath earned.
22

وَأَمْدَدْنَٰهُم بِفَٰكِهَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ

Pickthall

And We provide them with fruit and meat such as they desire.
23

يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌ

Pickthall

There they pass from hand to hand a cup wherein is neither vanity nor cause of sin.
24

وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌ لَّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌ مَّكْنُونٌ

Pickthall

And there go round, waiting on them menservants of their own, as they were hidden pearls.
25

وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

Pickthall

And some of them draw near unto others, questioning,
26

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِىٓ أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ

Pickthall

Saying: Lo! of old, when we were with our families, we were ever anxious;
27

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ

Pickthall

But Allah hath been gracious unto us and hath preserved us from the torment of the breath of Fire.
28

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

Pickthall

Lo! we used to pray unto Him of old. Lo! He is the Benign, the Merciful.
29

فَذَكِّرْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ

Pickthall

Therefor warn (men, O Muhammad). By the grace of Allah thou art neither soothsayer nor madman.
30

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيْبَ ٱلْمَنُونِ

Pickthall

Or say they: (he is) a poet, (one) for whom we may expect the accident of time?
31

قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ

Pickthall

Say (unto them): Except (your fill)! Lo! I am with you among the expectant.
32

أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَٰمُهُم بِهَٰذَآ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ

Pickthall

Do their minds command them to do this, or are they an outrageous folk?
33

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥ بَل لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Pickthall

Or say they: He hath invented it? Nay, but they will not believe!
34

فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِحَدِيثٍ مِّثْلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَٰدِقِينَ

Pickthall

Then let them produce speech the like thereof, if they are truthful.
35

أَمْ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَىْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُونَ

Pickthall

Or were they created out of naught? Or are they the creators?
36

أَمْ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ

Pickthall

Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they are sure of nothing!
37

أَمْ عِندَهُمْ خَزَآئِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْمُصَۣيْطِرُونَ

Pickthall

Or do they own the treasures of thy Lord? Or have they been given charge (thereof)?
38

أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ

Pickthall

Or have they any stairway (unto heaven) by means of which they overhear (decrees). Then let their listener produce some warrant manifest!
39

أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ

Pickthall

Or hath He daughters whereas ye have sons?
40

أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُونَ

Pickthall

Or askest thou (Muhammad) a fee from them so that they are plunged in debt?
41

أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ

Pickthall

Or possess they the Unseen so that they can write (it) down?
42

أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًا فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْمَكِيدُونَ

Pickthall

Or seek they to ensnare (the messenger)? But those who disbelieve, they are the ensnared!
43

أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَٰهٌ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

Pickthall

Or have they any god beside Allah? Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)!
44

وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كِسْفًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًا يَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابٌ مَّرْكُومٌ

Pickthall

And if they were to see a fragment of the heaven falling, they would say: A heap of clouds.
45

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ

Pickthall

Then let them be (O Muhammad), till they meet their day, in which they will be thunder-stricken,
46

يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ

Pickthall

A day in which their guile will naught avail them, nor will they be helped.
47

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابًا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

Pickthall

And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a punishment beyond that. But most of them know not.
48

وَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

Pickthall

So wait patiently (O Muhammad) for thy Lord's decree, for surely thou art in Our sight; and hymn the praise of thy Lord when thou uprisest,
49

وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ

Pickthall

And in the night-time also hymn His praise, and at the setting of the stars.
