--- |
|---|
| 54:1 | | The Hour has drawn nigh, and the moon has been cleaved |
| 54:2 | | and if they see a sign, they turn away and say, “Incessant sorcery! |
| 54:3 | | They denied and followed their caprices—and every matter shall be made to endure |
| 54:4 | | Indeed reports have come to them wherein is a reproof |
| 54:5 | | conclusive wisdom, but the warnings availed not |
| 54:6 | | So turn away from them on the Day wherein the caller will call unto a terrible thing |
| 54:7 | | With their eyes humbled they emerge from the graves as if they were scattered locusts |
| 54:8 | | scrambling toward the caller. The disbelievers say, “This is a calamitous day. |
| 54:9 | | The people of Noah denied before them, for they denied Our servant and said, “Possessed!” And he was reproved |
| 54:10 | | Then he called upon his Lord, “Truly I am overcome. Help! |
| 54:11 | | So We opened the gates of the sky with pouring water |
| 54:12 | | and We caused the earth to burst forth with springs, such that the waters met for a matter determined |
| 54:13 | | Then We carried him upon a thing of planks and nails |
| 54:14 | | coursing under Our Eyes as a recompense for one who was rejected |
| 54:15 | | And indeed We left it as a sign; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:16 | | How, then, were My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:17 | | And indeed We have made the Quran easy to remember; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:18 | | ?Ad denied. How, then, were My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:19 | | Truly We sent upon them a howling wind on a day of incessant misfortune |
| 54:20 | | tearing out people as if they were uprooted palm trunks |
| 54:21 | | How, then, were My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:22 | | And indeed We have made the Quran easy to remember; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:23 | | Thamud denied the warnings |
| 54:24 | | They said, “Shall we follow a single human being from among us? Then we would surely be astray and mad |
| 54:25 | | Has the reminder been cast upon him from among us? Nay, he is an insolent liar. |
| 54:26 | | On the morrow they will know who is the insolent liar |
| 54:27 | | Behold! We are sending the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch them and be patient |
| 54:28 | | And inform them that the water is to be divided among them—each share of drink equitably proportioned |
| 54:29 | | Then they called their companion, and he took in hand and hamstrung [her] |
| 54:30 | | How, then, were My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:31 | | Truly We sent upon them a single cry, and they were like a fence maker’s dry sticks |
| 54:32 | | And indeed We have made the Quran easy to remember; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:33 | | The people of Lot denied the warnings |
| 54:34 | | Truly We sent upon them a torrent of stones, save the family of Lot, whom We delivered at daw |
| 54:35 | | as a blessing from Us. Thus do We requite whosoever gives thanks |
| 54:36 | | And indeed he had warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warnings |
| 54:37 | | They had sought to lure him from his guests; so We blotted out their eyes. So taste My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:38 | | And indeed an enduring punishment greeted them early in the morning |
| 54:39 | | So taste My Punishment and My warnings |
| 54:40 | | And indeed We have made the Quran easy to remember; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:41 | | And indeed the warnings came unto the House of Pharaoh |
| 54:42 | | They denied Our signs—all of them; so We seized them with the seizing of One Mighty, Omnipotent |
| 54:43 | | Are your disbelievers better than those? Or have you some exemption in the scriptures |
| 54:44 | | Or do they say, “We are a host victorious!” |
| 54:45 | | The whole shall be routed and they will turn [their] backs |
| 54:46 | | Nay! The Hour is their tryst, and the Hour is more calamitous and more bitter |
| 54:47 | | Truly the guilty are astray and mad |
| 54:48 | | On the Day they are dragged upon their faces into the Fire, “Taste the touch of Saqar. |
| 54:49 | | Truly We have created everything according to a measure |
| 54:50 | | And Our Command is naught but one, like the blinking of an eye |
| 54:51 | | We have indeed destroyed the likes of you; so is there any who remembers |
| 54:52 | | Everything that they have done is in the scriptures |
| 54:53 | | everything small and great is inscribed |
| 54:54 | | Truly the reverent are amidst Gardens and a stream |
| 54:55 | | upon a seat of truth before an Omnipotent King |
