عم يتساءلونJuz 30 (Para 30) — Amma Yatasa'aloon, page 6

وَهُوَ ٱلۡغَفُورُ ٱلۡوَدُودُ

And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate

ذُو ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡمَجِيدُ

Honorable Owner of the Throne

فَعَّالٞ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ

Effecter of what He intends

هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلۡجُنُودِ

Has there reached you the story of the soldiers

فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَثَمُودَ

[Those of] Pharaoh and Thamud

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فِي تَكۡذِيبٖ

But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial

وَٱللَّهُ مِن وَرَآئِهِم مُّحِيطُۢ

While Allah encompasses them from behind

بَلۡ هُوَ قُرۡءَانٞ مَّجِيدٞ

But this is an honored Qur'an

فِي لَوۡحٖ مَّحۡفُوظِۭ

[Inscribed] in a Preserved Slate

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ

By the sky and the night comer

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ

And what can make you know what is the night comer

ٱلنَّجۡمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ

It is the piercing star

إِن كُلُّ نَفۡسٖ لَّمَّا عَلَيۡهَا حَافِظٞ

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector

فَلۡيَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ

So let man observe from what he was created

خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٖ دَافِقٖ

He was created from a fluid, ejected

يَخۡرُجُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِ ٱلصُّلۡبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs

إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجۡعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٞ

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able

يَوۡمَ تُبۡلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ

The Day when secrets will be put on trial

فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٖ وَلَا نَاصِرٖ

Then man will have no power or any helper

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجۡعِ

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدۡعِ

And [by] the earth which cracks open

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلٞ فَصۡلٞ

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلۡهَزۡلِ

And it is not amusement

إِنَّهُمۡ يَكِيدُونَ كَيۡدٗا

Indeed, they are planning a plan

وَأَكِيدُ كَيۡدٗا

But I am planning a plan

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ أَمۡهِلۡهُمۡ رُوَيۡدَۢا

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile

سَبِّحِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡأَعۡلَى

Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Who created and proportioned

وَٱلَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ

And who destined and [then] guided

وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَخۡرَجَ ٱلۡمَرۡعَىٰ

And who brings out the pasture

فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحۡوَىٰ

And [then] makes it black stubble

سَنُقۡرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ

We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget

إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡجَهۡرَ وَمَا يَخۡفَىٰ

Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden

وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ

And We will ease you toward ease

فَذَكِّرۡ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ

So remind, if the reminder should benefit

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ

He who fears [Allah] will be reminded

وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

But the wretched one will avoid it

ٱلَّذِي يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ

[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire

ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ

Neither dying therein nor living

قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ

And mentions the name of his Lord and prays

بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا

But you prefer the worldly life

وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ وَأَبۡقَىٰٓ

While the Hereafter is better and more enduring

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

Indeed, this is in the former scriptures

صُحُفِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ

The scriptures of Abraham and Moses

هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلۡغَٰشِيَةِ

Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]

وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ

[Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled

عَامِلَةٞ نَّاصِبَةٞ

Working [hard] and exhausted

تَصۡلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةٗ

They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire

تُسۡقَىٰ مِنۡ عَيۡنٍ ءَانِيَةٖ

They will be given drink from a boiling spring
