بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَٰشِيَةِ
Hal ataaka hadeesul ghaashiyah
Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity?
وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ
Wujoohuny yawma 'izin khaashi'ah
(Some) faces on that day shall be downcast,
عَامِلَةٌۭ نَّاصِبَةٌۭ
'Aamilatun naasibah
Laboring, toiling,
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةًۭ
Taslaa naaran haamiyah
Entering into burning fire,
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍۢ
Tusqaa min 'aynin aaniyah
Made to drink from a boiling spring.
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍۢ
Laisa lahum ta'aamun illaa min daree'
They shall have no food but of thorns,
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍۢ
Laa yusminu wa laa yughnee min joo'
Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger.
وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاعِمَةٌۭ
Wujoohuny yawma 'izin naa'imah
(Other) faces on that day shall be happy,
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌۭ
Lisa'yihaa raadiyah
Well-pleased because of their striving,
فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍۢ
Fee jannatin 'aaliyah
In a lofty garden,
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةًۭ
Laa tasma'u feehaa laaghiyah
Wherein you shall not hear vain talk.
فِيهَا عَيْنٌۭ جَارِيَةٌۭ
Feehaa 'aynun jaariyah
Therein is a fountain flowing,
فِيهَا سُرُرٌۭ مَّرْفُوعَةٌۭ
Feehaa sururum marfoo'ah
Therein are thrones raised high,
وَأَكْوَابٌۭ مَّوْضُوعَةٌۭ
Wa akwaabum mawdoo 'ah
And drinking-cups ready placed,
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌۭ
Wa namaariqu masfoofah
And cushions set in a row,
وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ
Wa zaraabiyyu mabsoosah
And carpets spread out.
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ
Afalaa yanzuroona ilalibili kaifa khuliqat
Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created?
وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ
Wa ilas samaaa'i kaifa rufi'at
And the heaven, how it is reared aloft,
وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ
Wa ilal jibaali kaifa nusibat
And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed,
وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ
Wa ilal ardi kaifa sutihat
And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse?
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌۭ
Fazakkir innama anta Muzakkir
Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder.
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ
Lasta 'alaihim bimusaitir
You are not a watcher over them;
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ
Illaa man tawallaa wa kafar
But whoever turns back and disbelieves,
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ
Fa yu'azzibuhul laahul 'azaabal akbar
Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement.
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ
Innaa ilainaaa iyaabahum
Surely to Us is their turning back,
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم
Summa inna 'alainaa hisaabahum
Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account.
