| In the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful. |
|
| 1. | The hour drew nigh and the moon did rend asunder |
| 2. | And if they see a miracle they turn aside and say: Transient magic. |
| 3. | And they call (it) a lie, and follow their low desires; and every affair has its appointed term. |
| 4. | And certainly some narratives have come to them wherein is prevention-- |
| 5. | Consummate wisdom-- but warnings do not avail; |
| 6. | So turn (your) back on them (for) the day when the inviter shall invite them to a hard task, |
| 7. | Their eyes cast down, going forth from their graves as if they were scattered locusts, |
| 8. | Hastening to the inviter is a hard day. |
| 9. | Before them the people of Nuh rejected, so they rejected Our servant and called (him) mad, and he was driven away. |
| 10. | Therefore he called upon his Lord: I am overcome, come Thou then to help. |
| 11. | So We opened the gates of the cloud with water pouring |
| 12. | And We made water to flow forth in the land in springs, so the water gathered together according to a measure already ordained. |
| 13. | And We bore him on that which was made of planks and nails |
| 14. | Sailing, before Our eyes, a reward for him who was denied. |
| 15. | And certainly We left it as a sign, but is there anyone who |
| 16. | How (great) was then My punishment and My warning! |
| 17. | And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? |
| 18. | Ad treated (the truth) as a lie, so how (great) was My punishment and My warning! |
| 19. | Surely We sent on them a tornado in a day of bitter ill-luck |
| 20. | Tearing men away as if they were the trunks of palm-trees torn up. |
| 21. | How (great) was then My punishment and My warning! |
| 22. | And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? |
| 23. | Samood rejected the warning |
| 24. | 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: |
| 25. | Has the reminder been made to light upon him from among us? Nay! he is an insolent liar! |
| 26. | Tomorrow shall they know who is the liar, the insolent one. |
| 27. | Surely We are going to send the she-camel as a trial for them; therefore watch them and have patience. |
| 28. | And inform them that the water is shared between them; every share of the water shall be regulated. |
| 29. | But they called their companion, so he took (the sword) and slew (her). |
| 30. | How (great) was then My punishment and My warning! |
| 31. | Surely We sent upon them a single cry, so they were like the dry fragments of trees which the maker of an enclosure collects. |
| 32. | And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? |
| 33. | The people of Lut treated the warning |
| 34. | Surely We sent upon them a stonestorm, except Lut's followers; We saved them a little before daybreak, |
| 35. | A favor from Us; thus do We reward him who gives thanks |
| 36. | And certainly he warned them of Our violent seizure, but they obstinately disputed the warning. |
| 37. | And certainly they endeavored to turn him from his guests, but We blinded their eyes; so taste My chastisement and My warning. |
| 38. | And certainly a lasting chastisement overtook them in the morning. |
| 39. | So taste My chastisement and My warning |
| 40. | And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? |
| 41. | And certainly the warning came to Firon's people |
| 42. | They rejected all Our communications, so We overtook them after.the manner of a Mighty, Powerful One. |
| 43. | Are the unbelievers of yours better than these, or is there an exemption for you in the scriptures? |
| 44. | Or do they say: We are a host allied together to help each other? |
| 45. | Soon shall the hosts be routed, and they shall turn (their) backs. |
| 46. | Nay, the hour is their promised time, and the hour shall be most grievous and bitter. |
| 47. | Surely the guilty are in error and distress |
| 48. | On the day when they shall be dragged upon their faces into the fire; taste the touch of hell. |
| 49. | Surely We have created everything according to a measure. |
| 50. | And Our command is but one, as the twinkling of an eye |
| 51. | And certainly We have already destroyed the likes of you, but is there anyone who will mind? |
| 52. | And everything they have done is in the writings |
| 53. | And everything small and great is written down |
| 54. | Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and rivers, |
| 55. | In the seat of honor with a most Powerful King |
