بِسْمِ ٱللَّـهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ |  | In the name of God, the Almighty,1 the Merciful.
ٱلْحَآقَّةُ |  | 692 1 The Inevitable Reality.1
مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ |  | 2 What is the Inevitable Reality?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحَآقَّةُ |  | 3 And what will convey to thee what the Inevitable Reality is?
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ وَعَادٌۢ بِٱلْقَارِعَةِ |  | 4 Thamūd and ʿĀd denied the Calamity.1
فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِٱلطَّاغِيَةِ |  | 5 Then as for Thamūd: they were destroyed by the overpowering blast.1
وَأَمَّا عَادٌ فَأُهْلِكُوا۟ بِرِيحٍ صَرْصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٍ |  | 6 And as for ʿĀd: they were destroyed by a howling, raging wind
سَخَّرَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَ لَيَالٍ وَثَمَـٰنِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ حُسُومًا فَتَرَى ٱلْقَوْمَ فِيهَا صَرْعَىٰ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ خَاوِيَةٍ |  | 7 Which He compelled against them seven nights and eight days without let; and thou mightest see the people therein lying prostrate like stumps of hollow1 date-palms.
فَهَلْ تَرَىٰ لَهُم مِّنۢ بَاقِيَةٍ |  | 8 Then seest thou of them1 any remnant?
وَجَآءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَن قَبْلَهُۥ وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَـٰتُ بِٱلْخَاطِئَةِ |  | 9 And there came Pharaoh1 — and those before him, and the cities thrown down — with offence,2
فَعَصَوْا۟ رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَهُمْ أَخْذَةً رَّابِيَةً |  | 10 And they opposed the messenger of their Lord, but He seized them with a surpassing1 grip.
إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا ٱلْمَآءُ حَمَلْنَـٰكُمْ فِى ٱلْجَارِيَةِ |  | 11 When the water had burst all bounds, We bore1 you2 in the ship
لِنَجْعَلَهَا لَكُمْ تَذْكِرَةً وَتَعِيَهَآ أُذُنٌ وَٰعِيَةٌ |  | 12 That We might make it1 a reminder for you, and that a conscious ear might be conscious of it.2
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ نَفْخَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ |  | 13 Then when the Trumpet is blown with a single blast,
وَحُمِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَٰحِدَةً |  | 14 And the earth and the mountains are lifted up and levelled with a single blow,1
فَيَوْمَئِذٍ وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ |  | 15 Then, that day, the Event will befall,1
وَٱنشَقَّتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَهِىَ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاهِيَةٌ |  | 16 And the sky be split asunder for it, that day, is frail,
وَٱلْمَلَكُ عَلَىٰٓ أَرْجَآئِهَا وَيَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَمَـٰنِيَةٌ |  | 17 And the angels on its sides; and there will bear the Throne of thy Lord above them, that day, eight.
يَوْمَئِذٍ تُعْرَضُونَ لَا تَخْفَىٰ مِنكُمْ خَافِيَةٌ |  | 18 That day, you will be presented; no secret among you will be concealed.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ هَآؤُمُ ٱقْرَءُوا۟ كِتَـٰبِيَهْ |  | 19 And as for him who is given his writ1 in his right hand, he will say: “Here, read my writ!2
إِنِّى ظَنَنتُ أَنِّى مُلَـٰقٍ حِسَابِيَهْ |  | 20 “I knew that I should meet my reckoning.”
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ |  | 21 Then is he in a pleasing life,
فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ |  | 22 In a high garden
قُطُوفُهَا دَانِيَةٌ |  | 23 The fruits whereof are near.
كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَآ أَسْلَفْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْخَالِيَةِ |  | 24 “Eat and drink with satisfaction for what you sent ahead in days past.”
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِشِمَالِهِۦ فَيَقُولُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى لَمْ أُوتَ كِتَـٰبِيَهْ |  | 25 And as for him who is given his writ1 in his left hand, he will say: “Would that I had not been given my writ2
وَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهْ |  | 26 “And had not known what is my reckoning!
يَـٰلَيْتَهَا كَانَتِ ٱلْقَاضِيَةَ |  | 27 “Would that it had been the end!
مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنِّى مَالِيَهْ |  | 28 “My wealth has not availed me.
هَلَكَ عَنِّى سُلْطَـٰنِيَهْ |  | 29 “Gone1 from me is my authority.”
خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ |  | 30 “Take him, and fetter him;
ثُمَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ |  | 31 “Then burn him in Hell;
ثُمَّ فِى سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعًا فَٱسْلُكُوهُ |  | 32 “Then into a chain the length whereof is seventy cubits insert him!”
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّـهِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ |  | 33 He believed not in1 God, the Great,
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ |  | 34 And encouraged not the feeding of the needy
فَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَـٰهُنَا حَمِيمٌ |  | 35 So there is for him here, this day, no loyal friend,
وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِينٍ |  | 36 Nor food save of foul pus,1
لَّا يَأْكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْخَـٰطِـُٔونَ |  | 37 That none eat save the offenders.1
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ |  | 38 Then do I swear by what you see
وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ |  | 39 And what you see not:
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ |  | 40 It is the word1 of a noble messenger,
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ قَلِيلًا مَّا تُؤْمِنُونَ |  | 41 And it is not the word1 of a poet2 — little do you believe —
وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ |  | 42 Nor the word of a soothsayer — little do you take heed —
تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 43 A revelation1 from the Lord of All Creation!
وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ ٱلْأَقَاوِيلِ |  | 44 (And had he ascribed to Us any sayings,1
لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِٱلْيَمِينِ |  | 45 We would have seized him by the right hand.
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ ٱلْوَتِينَ |  | 46 Then would We have cut from him the aorta,
فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَـٰجِزِينَ |  | 47 And not one of you could have protected him.1)
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ |  | 48 And it is a reminder to those of prudent fear;1
وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِينَ |  | 49 (And We know that among you are deniers)
