Adh-Dhariyat
كَذَٰلِكَ مَا أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ52
Every previous people to whom a messenger was sent also said, ‘A sor-cerer, or maybe a madman!’
أَتَوَاصَوْا بِهِ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ53
Did they tell one another to do this? No! They are a people who exceed all bounds
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَا أَنْتَ بِمَلُومٍ54
so ignore them [Prophet]- you are not to blame
وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَىٰ تَنْفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ55
and go on reminding [people], it is good for those who believe to be reminded
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ56
I created jinn and mankind only to worship Me
مَا أُرِيدُ مِنْهُمْ مِنْ رِزْقٍ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ يُطْعِمُونِ57
I want no provision from them, nor do I want them to feed Me
إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ58
God is the Provider, the Lord of Power, the Ever Mighty
فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا ذَنُوبًا مِثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ59
The evildoers, like their predecessors, will have a share of punishment- they need not ask Me to hasten it
فَوَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ يَوْمِهِمُ الَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ60
and woe betide those who deny the truth on the Day they have been promised
At-Tur
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَالطُّورِ1
By the mountain
وَكِتَابٍ مَسْطُورٍ2
by a Scripture inscribed
فِي رَقٍّ مَنْشُورٍ3
in unrolled parch-ment
وَالْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ4
by the much-visited House
وَالسَّقْفِ الْمَرْفُوعِ5
by the raised canopy
وَالْبَحْرِ الْمَسْجُورِ6
by the ocean ever filled
إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَاقِعٌ7
[Prophet], your Lord’s punishment is coming––
مَا لَهُ مِنْ دَافِعٍ8
it cannot be put off––
يَوْمَ تَمُورُ السَّمَاءُ مَوْرًا9
on the Day when the sky sways back and forth
وَتَسِيرُ الْجِبَالُ سَيْرًا10
and the mountains float away
فَوَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ11
Woe on that Day to those who deny the Truth
الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي خَوْضٍ يَلْعَبُونَ12
who amuse themselves with idle chatter
يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا13
on that Day they will be thrust into the Fire of Hell
هَـٰذِهِ النَّارُ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ14
‘This is the Fire you used to deny
