What are they asking
(one another)?
(1)
عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
٢
About the great news,
(i.e. Islamic Monotheism, the Quran, which Prophet Muhammad ﷺ brought and the Day of Resurrection, etc.),
(2)
ٱلَّذِي هُمۡ فِيهِ مُخۡتَلِفُونَ
٣
About which they are in disagreement.
(3)
Nay, they will come to know!
(4)
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعۡلَمُونَ
٥
Nay, again, they will come to know!
(5)
أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَلِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ مِهَٰدٗا
٦
Have We not made the earth as a bed,
(6)
And the mountains as pegs?
(7)
وَخَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ أَزۡوَٰجٗا
٨
And We have created you in pairs
(male and female, tall and short, good and bad, etc.).
(8)
وَجَعَلۡنَا نَوۡمَكُمۡ سُبَاتٗا
٩
And have made your sleep as a thing for rest.
(9)
وَجَعَلۡنَا ٱلَّيۡلَ لِبَاسٗا
١٠
And have made the night as a covering
(through its darkness),
(10)
وَجَعَلۡنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشٗا
١١
And have made the day for livelihood.
(11)
وَبَنَيۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمۡ سَبۡعٗا شِدَادٗا
١٢
And We have built above you seven strong
(heavens),
(12)
وَجَعَلۡنَا سِرَاجٗا وَهَّاجٗا
١٣
And have made
(therein) a shinning lamp
(sun).
(13)
وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُعۡصِرَٰتِ مَآءٗ ثَجَّاجٗا
١٤
And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water.
(14)
لِّنُخۡرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبّٗا وَنَبَاتٗا
١٥
That We may produce therewith corn and vegetations,
(15)
And gardens of thick growth.
(16)
إِنَّ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ كَانَ مِيقَٰتٗا
١٧
Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time,
(17)
يَوۡمَ يُنفَخُ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأۡتُونَ أَفۡوَاجٗا
١٨
The Day when the Trumpet will be blown, and you shall come forth in crowds
(groups);
(18)
وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتۡ أَبۡوَٰبٗا
١٩
And the heaven shall be opened, and it will become as gates,
(19)
وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ فَكَانَتۡ سَرَابًا
٢٠
And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage.
(20)
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتۡ مِرۡصَادٗا
٢١
Truly, Hell is a place of ambush,
(21)
لِّلطَّٰغِينَ مَـَٔابٗا
٢٢
A dwelling place for the Taghun
(those who transgress the boundry limits set by Allah like polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, hyprocrites, sinners, criminals, etc.),
(22)
لَّٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحۡقَابٗا
٢٣
They will abide therein for ages,
(23)
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرۡدٗا وَلَا شَرَابًا
٢٤
Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink.
(24)
إِلَّا حَمِيمٗا وَغَسَّاقٗا
٢٥
Except boiling water, and dirty wound discharges.
(25)
An exact recompense
(according to their evil crimes).
(26)
إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ لَا يَرۡجُونَ حِسَابٗا
٢٧
For verily, they used not to look for a reckoning.
(27)
وَكَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كِذَّابٗا
٢٨
But they belied Our Ayat
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, and that which Our Prophet (Peace be upon him) brought) completely.
(28)
وَكُلَّ شَيۡءٍ أَحۡصَيۡنَٰهُ كِتَٰبٗا
٢٩
And all things We have recorded in a Book.
(29)
فَذُوقُواْ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمۡ إِلَّا عَذَابًا
٣٠
So taste you
(the results of your evil actions); no increase shall We give you, except in torment.
(30)
