Qaaf -Qaaf |
|
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful |
|
1 |
|
[ 50. 1 ] Qaaf. By the Glorious Koran! |
|
2 |
|
[ 50. 2 ] No, but they marvel that from among themselves a warner has come to them. The unbelievers say ( in mockery ): 'This is a marvelous thing! |
|
3 |
|
[ 50. 3 ] What, when we are dead and turned to dust? That indeed would be an unlikely return!' |
|
4 |
|
[ 50. 4 ] We know all that the earth takes away of them, and a Book of Records is with Us. |
|
5 |
|
[ 50. 5 ] Rather, they belied the truth when it came to them, and now they are in a state of confusion. |
|
6 |
|
[ 50. 6 ] What, have they never observed the heaven above them, ( and seen ) how We built and adorned it, leaving no crack? |
|
7 |
|
[ 50. 7 ] We spread out the earth and set upon it firm mountains, and We cause every delightful thing to grow in it |
|
8 |
|
[ 50. 8 ] as a lesson and a reminder to every penitent worshiper. |
|
9 |
|
[ 50. 9 ] We sent down blessed water from the sky with which We caused gardens and the grains of harvest to grow, |
|
10 |
|
[ 50. 10 ] and tall palmtrees with compact spathes |
|
11 |
|
[ 50. 11 ] as a provision for the worshipers; thereby We revived a land that was dead. Such shall be the emerging. |
|
12 |
|
[ 50. 12 ] Before them, the nation of Noah, the nation of ArRass belied and so did Thamood |
|
13 |
|
[ 50. 13 ] and Aad, Pharaoh and the brothers of Lot, |
|
14 |
|
[ 50. 14 ] the dwellers of the Thicket and the nation of Tubba', all belied their Messengers, therefore My threat was realized. |
|
15 |
|
[ 50. 15 ] What, were We wearied by the first creation? No, indeed; yet they are in doubt about a new creation. |
|
16 |
|
[ 50. 16 ] Indeed, We created the human. We know the whisperings of his soul, and are closer to him than the jugular vein. |
|
17 |
|
[ 50. 17 ] When both receivers ( the angels ) receive, one on his right, the other on his left, |
|
18 |
|
[ 50. 18 ] whatever phrase he utters, an observer is present. |
|
19 |
|
[ 50. 19 ] And when the agony of death comes in truth ( they will say ): 'This is what you have been trying to avoid!' |
|
20 |
|
[ 50. 20 ] And the Horn shall be blown; that is the Day of Threat! |
|
21 |
|
[ 50. 21 ] Each soul shall come with a driver, and a witness. |
|
22 |
|
[ 50. 22 ] ( It will be said ): 'Of this you have been heedless. Therefore, we have now removed your covering. Today your sight is sharp.' |
|
23 |
|
[ 50. 23 ] And his companion will say: 'This is that which I have present.' |
|
24 |
|
[ 50. 24 ] ( It will be said ): 'Indeed, cast into Gehenna ( Hell ) every deviating unbeliever, |
|
25 |
|
[ 50. 25 ] forbidder of good, transgressor and doubter, |
|
26 |
|
[ 50. 26 ] who has set up with Allah another god. Indeed, you two, cast him into the terrible punishment.' |
|
27 |
|
[ 50. 27 ] And his companion shall say: 'Our Lord, I did not make him insolent, he was far astray.' |
|
28 |
|
[ 50. 28 ] He ( Allah ) will say: 'Do not dispute before Me. I sent you a warning beforehand. |
|
29 |
|
[ 50. 29 ] The Word cannot be changed with Me; I do not wrong My worshipers.' |
|
30 |
|
[ 50. 30 ] On that Day We shall ask Gehenna: 'Are you full?' And it will answer: 'Are there any more?' |
|
31 |
|
[ 50. 31 ] And Paradise, which is not far away, shall be brought closer to those who were cautious. |
|
32 |
|
[ 50. 32 ] ( It shall be said to them ): 'This is that you were promised. It is for every heeding penitent. |
|
33 |
|
[ 50. 33 ] Whosoever fears the Merciful in the Unseen, and comes with a contrite heart. |
|
34 |
|
[ 50. 34 ] Enter it in peace. This is the Day of Eternity!' |
|
35 |
|
[ 50. 35 ] There they have all that they desire, and with Us is much more. |
|
36 |
|
[ 50. 36 ] How many generations, stronger in might than they have We destroyed before them! They searched the land, could they find any asylum? |
|
37 |
|
[ 50. 37 ] Surely, in this there is a Reminder for he who has a heart or listens attentively while witnessing. |
|
38 |
|
[ 50. 38 ] In six days We created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them and no weariness touched Us! |
|
39 |
|
[ 50. 39 ] Bear then with patience what they say. Exalt with the praise of your Lord before sunrise and before sunset. |
|
40 |
|
[ 50. 40 ] And exalt Him in the night, and at the ends of the prostrations. |
|
41 |
|
[ 50. 41 ] Listen for the Day when the Caller will call from a nearby place. |
|
42 |
|
[ 50. 42 ] On the Day when they will hear the Shout, in truth that Day they will emerge. |
|
43 |
|
[ 50. 43 ] It is We who give life and make to die. To Us is the arrival. |
|
44 |
|
[ 50. 44 ] Upon that Day the earth will be rent asunder from around them as they hurry forth that is an easy gathering for Us. |
|
45 |
|
[ 50. 45 ] Indeed, We know what they say. You ( Prophet Muhammad ) are not a tyrant over them. Therefore, remind by the Koran whosoever fears ( My ) threat. |
