بِسْمِ ٱللَّـهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ |  | In the name of God, the Almighty,1 the Merciful.
إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ |  | 562 1 When the Event befalls,1
لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ |  | 2 — There is no denying its befalling —
خَافِضَةٌ رَّافِعَةٌ |  | 3 Abasing, exalting;
إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّا |  | 4 When the earth is shaken with convulsion,1
وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّا |  | 5 And the mountains crumble away1
فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءً مُّنۢبَثًّا |  | 6 And are dust dispersing,
وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا ثَلَـٰثَةً |  | 7 And you will be three kinds:1
فَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ |  | 8 The companions of the right! — what of the companions of the right? —
وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ |  | 9 And the companions of the left! — what of the companions of the left? —
وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ |  | 10 And the foremost! The foremost:
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ |  | 11 Those are they brought near,1
فِى جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ |  | 12 In the Gardens of Bliss,
ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ |  | 13 (A multitude of the former peoples,
وَقَلِيلٌ مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ |  | 14 And a few of the latter)
عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّوْضُونَةٍ |  | 15 On jewel-woven1 couches,2
مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَـٰبِلِينَ |  | 16 Reclining upon them, facing one another.
يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ |  | 17 Circulating1 among them are youths2 made eternal
بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ |  | 18 With cups, and jugs, and a glass from a running spring,
لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ |  | 19 Wherefrom they have no headache, nor are they intoxicated;
وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ |  | 20 And such fruit as they choose,
وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ |  | 21 And such flesh of fowl as they desire,
وَحُورٌ عِينٌ |  | 22 And pure, lustrous-eyed maidens,1
كَأَمْثَـٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ |  | 23 As the likeness of hidden1 pearls
جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ |  | 24 As reward for what they did.
لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا |  | 25 They hear therein neither vain speech, nor cause of sin,
إِلَّا قِيلًا سَلَـٰمًا سَلَـٰمًا |  | 26 Only the saying: “Peace! Peace!”
وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ |  | 27 And the companions of the right! — what of the companions of the right? —
فِى سِدْرٍ مَّخْضُودٍ |  | 28 Among thornless lote trees,
وَطَلْحٍ مَّنضُودٍ |  | 29 And acacias layered,
وَظِلٍّۢ مَّمْدُودٍ |  | 30 And shade extended,
وَمَآءٍ مَّسْكُوبٍ |  | 31 And water poured forth,
وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ |  | 32 And fruit abounding,
لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍ |  | 33 Unfailing, unforbidden,
وَفُرُشٍ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ |  | 34 And couches raised high.
إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَـٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءً |  | 35 We have produced them1 in a new creation2
فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا |  | 36 And made them virgins,
عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًا |  | 37 Devoted,1 well-matched,2
لِّأَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ |  | 38 For the companions of the right:
ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ |  | 39 A multitude of the former peoples,
وَثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ |  | 40 And a multitude of the latter.
وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ |  | 41 And the companions of the left! What of the companions of the left?
فِى سَمُومٍ وَحَمِيمٍ |  | 42 In scorching wind and scalding water,
وَظِلٍّۢ مِّن يَحْمُومٍ |  | 43 And a shadow of black smoke,
لَّا بَارِدٍ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ |  | 44 Neither cool nor noble.1
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ |  | 45 They were, before that, opulent,
وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ |  | 46 And persisted in the Great Perjury,1
وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ |  | 47 And said: “When we are dead and are dust and bones, will we be raised,
أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ |  | 48 “Or our fathers of former times?”
قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ |  | 49 Say thou: “The former peoples and the latter
