| | Ali Quli Qara'i rendition of Surah The Cloaked One, The Man Wearing a Cloak, The Clothed One(al-Mudathir)
--- |
|---|
| 74:1 | | O you wrapped up in your mantle |
| 74:2 | | Rise up and warn |
| 74:3 | | Magnify your Lord |
| 74:4 | | and purify your cloak |
| 74:5 | | and keep away from all impurity |
| 74:6 | | Do not grant a favour seeking a greater gain |
| 74:7 | | and be patient for the sake of your Lord |
| 74:8 | | When the Trumpet will be sounded |
| 74:9 | | that day will be a day of hardship |
| 74:10 | | not at all easy for the faithless |
| 74:11 | | Leave Me [to deal] with him whom I created alone |
| 74:12 | | and then furnished him with extensive means |
| 74:13 | | and [gave him] sons to be at his side |
| 74:14 | | and facilitated [all matters] for him |
| 74:15 | | Still he is eager that I should give him more |
| 74:16 | | No indeed! He is an obstinate opponent of Our signs |
| 74:17 | | Soon I will overwhelm him with hardship |
| 74:18 | | Indeed he reflected and decided |
| 74:19 | | Perish he, how he decided |
| 74:20 | | Again, perish he, how he decided |
| 74:21 | | Then he looked |
| 74:22 | | then he frowned and scowled |
| 74:23 | | Then he went away disdainfully |
| 74:24 | | saying, ‘It is nothing but magic handed down |
| 74:25 | | It is nothing but the speech of a human being.&rsquo |
| 74:26 | | Soon I shall cast him into Saqar |
| 74:27 | | And what will show you what is Saqar |
| 74:28 | | It neither spares nor leaves [anything] |
| 74:29 | | It burns the skin |
| 74:30 | | There are nineteen [keepers] over it |
| 74:31 | | We have assigned only angels as keepers of the Fire, and We have made their number merely a stumbling block for the faithless, and that those given the Book may be reassured, and the faithful may increase in [their] faith, and that those given the Book may not doubt and the faithful [as well], and that those in whose hearts is a sickness may say, and the faithless [along with them], ‘What did Allah mean by this description?’ Thus does Allah lead astray whomever He wishes, and guides whomever He wishes. No one knows the hosts of your Lord except Him, and it is just an admonition for all humans |
| 74:32 | | No indeed! By the Moon |
| 74:33 | | By the night when it recedes |
| 74:34 | | By the dawn when it brightens |
| 74:35 | | Indeed it is one of the greatest [signs] |
| 74:36 | | —a warner to all humans |
| 74:37 | | [alike] for those of you who like to advance ahead and those who would linger behind |
| 74:38 | | Every soul is hostage to what it has earned |
| 74:39 | | except the People of the Right Hand |
| 74:40 | | [They will be] in gardens, questionin |
| 74:41 | | concerning the guilty |
| 74:42 | | ‘What drew you into Hell?&rsquo |
| 74:43 | | They will answer, ‘We were not among those who prayed |
| 74:44 | | Nor did we feed the poor |
| 74:45 | | We used to gossip along with the gossipers |
| 74:46 | | and we used to deny the Day of Retribution |
| 74:47 | | until death came to us.&rsquo |
| 74:48 | | So the intercession of the intercessors will not avail them |
| 74:49 | | What is the matter with them that they evade the Reminde |
| 74:50 | | as if they were terrified asse |
| 74:51 | | fleeing from a lion |
| 74:52 | | Rather everyone of them desires to be given unrolled scriptures [from Allah] |
| 74:53 | | No indeed! Rather they do not fear the Hereafter |
| 74:54 | | No indeed! It is indeed a reminder |
| 74:55 | | So let anyone who wishes remember it |
| 74:56 | | And they will not remember unless Allah wishes. He is worthy of [your] being wary [of Him] and He is worthy to forgive |
