verse 1

O thou enveloped in thy cloak,

thoughts

verse 2

Arise and warn!

thoughts

verse 3

Thy Lord magnify,

thoughts

verse 4

Thy raiment purify,

thoughts

verse 5

Pollution shun!

thoughts

verse 6

And show not favour, seeking wordly gain!

thoughts

verse 7

For the sake of thy Lord, be patient!

thoughts

verse 8

For when the trumpet shall sound,

thoughts

verse 9

Surely that day will be a day of anguish,

thoughts

verse 10

Not of ease, for disbelievers.

thoughts

verse 11

Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created lonely,

thoughts

verse 12

And then bestowed upon him ample means,

thoughts

verse 13

And sons abiding in his presence

thoughts

verse 14

And made (life) smooth for him.

thoughts

verse 15

Yet he desireth that I should give more.

thoughts

verse 16

Nay! For lo! he hath been stubborn to Our revelations.

thoughts

verse 17

On him I shall impose a fearful doom.

thoughts

verse 18

For lo! he did consider; then he planned -

thoughts

verse 19

(Self-)destroyed is he, how he planned!

thoughts

verse 20

Again (self-)destroyed is he, how he planned! -

thoughts

verse 21

Then looked he,

thoughts

verse 22

Then frowned he and showed displeasure.

thoughts

verse 23

Then turned he away in pride

thoughts

verse 24

And said: This is naught else than magic from of old;

thoughts

verse 25

This is naught else than speech of mortal man.

thoughts

verse 26

Him shall I fling unto the burning.

thoughts

verse 27

  • Ah, what will convey unto thee what that burning is! -

thoughts

verse 28

It leaveth naught; it spareth naught

thoughts

verse 29

It shrivelleth the man.

thoughts

verse 30

Above it are nineteen.

thoughts

verse 31

We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling-block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals.

thoughts

verse 32

Nay, by the Moon

thoughts

verse 33

And the night when it withdraweth

thoughts

verse 34

And the dawn when it shineth forth,

thoughts

verse 35

Lo! this is one of the greatest (portents)

thoughts

verse 36

As a warning unto men,

thoughts

verse 37

Unto him of you who will advance or hang back.

thoughts

verse 38

Every soul is a pledge for its own deeds;

thoughts

verse 39

Save those who will stand on the right hand.

thoughts

verse 40

In gardens they will ask one another

thoughts

verse 41

Concerning the guilty:

thoughts

verse 42

What hath brought you to this burning?

thoughts

verse 43

They will answer: We were not of those who prayed

thoughts

verse 44

Nor did we feed the wretched.

thoughts

verse 45

We used to wade (in vain dispute) with (all) waders,

thoughts

verse 46

And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,

thoughts

verse 47

Till the Inevitable came unto us.

thoughts

verse 48

The mediation of no mediators will avail them then.

thoughts

verse 49

Why now turn they away from the Admonishment,

thoughts

verse 50

As they were frightened asses

thoughts

verse 51

Fleeing from a lion?

thoughts

verse 52

Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).

thoughts

verse 53

Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter.

thoughts

verse 54

Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment.

thoughts

verse 55

So whosoever will may heed.

thoughts

verse 56

And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.
