بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
hal atāka ḥadīthu l-ghāshiyati
Has the news of the Overwhelming Event reached you ˹O Prophet˺?
wujūhun yawma-idhin khāshiʿatun
On that Day ˹some˺ faces will be downcast,
ʿāmilatun nāṣibatun
˹totally˺ overburdened, exhausted,
taṣlā nāran ḥāmiyatan
burning in a scorching Fire,
tus'qā min ʿaynin āniyatin
left to drink from a scalding spring.
laysa lahum ṭaʿāmun illā min ḍarīʿin
They will have no food except a foul, thorny shrub,
lā yus'minu walā yugh'nī min jūʿin
neither nourishing nor satisfying hunger.
wujūhun yawma-idhin nāʿimatun
On that Day ˹other˺ faces will be glowing with bliss,
lisaʿyihā rāḍiyatun
˹fully˺ pleased with their striving,
fī jannatin ʿāliyatin
in an elevated Garden,
lā tasmaʿu fīhā lāghiyatan
where no idle talk will be heard.
fīhā ʿaynun jāriyatun
In it will be a running spring,
fīhā sururun marfūʿatun
along with thrones raised high,
wa-akwābun mawḍūʿatun
and cups set at hand,
wanamāriqu maṣfūfatun
and ˹fine˺ cushions lined up,
wazarābiyyu mabthūthatun
and ˹splendid˺ carpets spread out.
afalā yanẓurūna ilā l-ibili kayfa khuliqat
Do they not ever reflect on camels—how they were ˹masterfully˺ created;
wa-ilā l-samāi kayfa rufiʿat
and the sky—how it was raised ˹high˺;
wa-ilā l-jibāli kayfa nuṣibat
and the mountains—how they were firmly set up;
wa-ilā l-arḍi kayfa suṭiḥat
and the earth—how it was levelled out?
fadhakkir innamā anta mudhakkirun
So, ˹continue to˺ remind ˹all, O Prophet˺, for your duty is only to remind.
lasta ʿalayhim bimuṣayṭirin
You are not ˹there˺ to compel them ˹to believe˺.
illā man tawallā wakafara
But whoever turns away, persisting in disbelief,
fayuʿadhibuhu l-lahu l-ʿadhāba l-akbara
then Allah will inflict upon them the major punishment.
inna ilaynā iyābahum
Surely to Us is their return,
thumma inna ʿalaynā ḥisābahum
then surely with Us is their reckoning.
