بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ
Iqtarabatis Saa'atu wsan shaqqal qamar
The hour drew nigh and the moon did rend asunder.
وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ ءَايَةًۭ يُعْرِضُوا۟ وَيَقُولُوا۟ سِحْرٌۭ مُّسْتَمِرٌّۭ
Wa iny yaraw aayatany yu'ridoo wa yaqooloo sihrum mustamirr
And if they see a miracle they turn aside and say: Transient magic.
وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍۢ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ
Wa kazzaboo wattaba'ooo ahwaaa'ahum; wa kullu amrim mustaqirr
And they call (it) a lie, and follow their low desires; and every affair has its appointed term.
وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَنۢبَآءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ
Wa laqad jaaa'ahum minal ambaaa'i maa feehi muzdajar
And certainly some narratives have come to them wherein is prevention--
حِكْمَةٌۢ بَٰلِغَةٌۭ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ
Hikmatum baalighatun famaa tughnin nuzur
Consummate wisdom-- but warnings do not avail;
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ ٱلدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَىْءٍۢ نُّكُرٍ
Fatawalla 'anhum; yawma yad'ud daa'i ilaa shai 'in nukur
So turn (your) back on them (for) the day when the inviter shall invite them to a hard task,
خُشَّعًا أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌۭ مُّنتَشِرٌۭ
khushsha'an absaaruhum yakrujoona minal ajdaasi ka annahum jaraadum muntashir
Their eyes cast down, going forth from their graves as if they were scattered locusts,
مُّهْطِعِينَ إِلَى ٱلدَّاعِ ۖ يَقُولُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌۭ
Muhti'eena ilad daa'i yaqoolul kafiroona haazaa yawmun 'asir
Hastening to the inviter. The unbelievers shall say: This is a hard day.
۞ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍۢ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجْنُونٌۭ وَٱزْدُجِرَ
Kazzabat qablahum qawmu Noohin fakazzaboo 'abdanaa wa qaaloo majnoo nunw wazdujir
Before them the people of Nuh rejected, so they rejected Our servant and called (him) mad, and he was driven away.
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّى مَغْلُوبٌۭ فَٱنتَصِرْ
Fada'aa Rabbahooo annee maghloobun fantasir
Therefore he called upon his Lord: I am overcome, come Thou then to help.
فَفَتَحْنَآ أَبْوَٰبَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَآءٍۢ مُّنْهَمِرٍۢ
Fafatahnaaa abwaabas sa maaa'i bimaa'im munhamir
So We opened the gates of the cloud with water pouring
وَفَجَّرْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ عُيُونًۭا فَٱلْتَقَى ٱلْمَآءُ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْرٍۢ قَدْ قُدِرَ
Wa fajjamal arda 'uyoonan faltaqal maaa'u 'alaaa amrin qad qudir
And We made water to flow forth in the land in springs, so the water gathered together according to a measure already ordained.
وَحَمَلْنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ ذَاتِ أَلْوَٰحٍۢ وَدُسُرٍۢ
Wa hamalnaahu 'alaa zaati alwaahinw wa dusur
And We bore him on that which was made of planks and nails
تَجْرِى بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَآءًۭ لِّمَن كَانَ كُفِرَ
Tajree bi a'yuninaa jazaaa 'al liman kaana kufir
Sailing, before Our eyes, a reward for him who was denied.
وَلَقَد تَّرَكْنَٰهَآ ءَايَةًۭ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ
Wa laqat taraknaahaad aayatan fahal mim muddakir
And certainly We left it as a sign, but is there anyone who
فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ
Fakaifa kaana 'azaabee wa nuzur
How (great) was then My punishment and My warning!
وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ
Wa laqad yassamal Quraana liz zikri fahal mimmuddakir
And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind?
كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌۭ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ
Kazzabat 'Aadun fakaifa kaana 'azaabee wa nuzur
Ad treated (the truth) as a lie, so how (great) was My punishment and My warning!
إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًۭا صَرْصَرًۭا فِى يَوْمِ نَحْسٍۢ مُّسْتَمِرٍّۢ
Innaa arsalnaa 'alaihim reehan sarsaran fee Yawmi nahsim mustamirr
Surely We sent on them a tornado in a day of bitter ill-luck
تَنزِعُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍۢ مُّنقَعِرٍۢ
Tanzi;un naasa ka anna huma'jaazu nakhlim munqa'ir
Tearing men away as if they were the trunks of palm-trees torn up.
فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ
'Fakaifa kaana 'azaabee wa nuzur
How (great) was then My punishment and My warning!
وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ
Wa laqad yassamal Quraana liz zikri fahal mim muddakir
And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind?
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ
Kazzabat Samoodu binnuzur
Samood rejected the warning.
فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَبَشَرًۭا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدًۭا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذًۭا لَّفِى ضَلَٰلٍۢ وَسُعُرٍ
Faqaalooo a-basharam minnaa waahidan nattabi'uhooo innaa izal lafee dalaalinw wa su'ur
So they said: What! a single mortal from among us! Shall we follow him? Most surely we shall in that case be in sure error and distress:
أَءُلْقِىَ ٱلذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنۢ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌۭ
'A-ulqiyaz zikru 'alaihi mim baininaa bal huwa kazzaabun ashir
Has the reminder been made to light upon him from among us? Nay! he is an insolent liar!
سَيَعْلَمُونَ غَدًۭا مَّنِ ٱلْكَذَّابُ ٱلْأَشِرُ
Sa-ya'lamoona ghadam manil kazzaabul ashir
Tomorrow shall they know who is the liar, the insolent one.
إِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةًۭ لَّهُمْ فَٱرْتَقِبْهُمْ وَٱصْطَبِرْ
Innaa mursilun naaqati fitnatal lahum fartaqibhum wastabir
Surely We are going to send the she-camel as a trial for them; therefore watch them and have patience.
وَنَبِّئْهُمْ أَنَّ ٱلْمَآءَ قِسْمَةٌۢ بَيْنَهُمْ ۖ كُلُّ شِرْبٍۢ مُّحْتَضَرٌۭ
Wa nabbi'hum annal maaa'a qismatum bainahum kullu shirbim muhtadar
And inform them that the water is shared between them; every share of the water shall be regulated.
فَنَادَوْا۟ صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ
Fanaadaw saahibahum fata'aataa fa'aqar
But they called their companion, so he took (the sword) and slew (her).
فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ
Fakaifa kaana 'azaabee wa nuzur
How (great) was then My punishment and My warning!
