English - Chapter 74 - Al-Muddaththir

O you enveloped in garments

Arise and warn

And magnify your Lord

And purify your garments

And keep away from Ar-Rujz

And give not a thing in order to have more

And be patient for the sake of your Lord

Then, when the Naqur is sounded

Truly, that Day will be a Hard Day

Far from easy for the disbelievers

Leave Me alone (to deal) with whom I created lonely

And then granted him resources in abundance

And children attending

And made life smooth and comfortable for him

After all that he desires that I should give more

Nay! Verily, he has been opposing Our Ayat

I shall force him to Sa`ud

Verily, he thought and plotted

So let him be cursed, how he plotted

And once more let him be cursed, how he plotted

Then he thought

Then he frowned and he looked in a bad tempered way

Then he turned back, and was proud

Then he said: "This is nothing but magic from that of old

This is nothing but the word of a human being

I will cast him into Saqar

And what will make you know (exactly) what Saqar is

It spares not, nor does it leave (anything)

Scorching for the humans

Over it are nineteen

And We have set none but angels as guardians of the Fire. And We have fixed their number only as a trial for the disbelievers, in order that the People of the Scripture may arrive at a certainty and that the believers may increase in faith, and that no doubt may be left for the People of the Scripture and the believers, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the disbelievers may say: "What does Allah intend by this example" Thus Allah leads astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none can know the hosts of your Lord but He. And this is nothing but a reminder to mankind

Nay! And by the moon

And by the night when it withdraws

And by the dawn when it brightens

Verily, it is but one of the greatest (signs)

A warning to mankind

To any of you that chooses to go forward, or to remain behind

Every person is a pledge for what he has earned

Except those on the Right

In Gardens they will ask one another

About criminals (and they will say to them)

What has caused you to enter Hell

They will say: "We were not of those who used to offer the Salah

Nor did we feed the poor

And we used to speak falsehood with vain speakers

And we used to deny the Day of Recompense

Until Al-Yaqin came to us

So no intercession of intercessors will be of any use to them

Then what is wrong with them that they turn away from admonition

As if they were wild donkeys

Fleeing from a Qaswarah

Nay, everyone of them desires that he should be given pages spread out

Nay! But they fear not the Hereafter

Nay, verily, this is an admonition

So, whosoever wills receives admonition from it

And they will not receive admonition unless Allah wills; He is the One, deserving of the Taqwa and He is the One Who forgives
