English - Chapter 52 - At-Tur

By the mount

And a recorded Scripture

In parchment unrolled

And the erected sanctuary

And the ceiling which is raised

And the sea that is set aflame

Your Lord's retribution is unavoidable

Nothing can stop it

The Day when the sky will violently thunder

And the mountains will be wiped out

Woe on that Day to the deniers

Who are in their recklessness, playing

The Day they will be called into Hell, forcibly

This is the Fire which you used to deny

Is this magic, or do you not see

Enter it, whether you are patient or impatient, it will be the same for you. You are only being requited for what you used to do

The righteous are in paradises and bliss

Delighted by what their Lord has granted them; and their Lord has spared them the retribution of Hell

Eat and drink happily because of what you used to do

They recline on arranged furnishings, and We coupled them with wonderful companions

And those who believed, and their progeny also followed them in belief; We will have their progeny join them. We never fail to reward them for any work. Every person is paid for what he did

We will supply them with fruit and meat such as they desire

They will enjoy drinks in which there is no harm, nor regret

And around them will be children like protected pearls

And they came to one another asking

They said: "We used to be compassionate among our people

God thus blessed us, and has spared us the agony of the fiery winds

We used to implore Him before; He is the Most Kind, the Most Merciful

Therefore, you shall remind. For by the grace of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer, nor mad

Or do they Say: "He is a poet; so let us just wait until a disaster befalls him

Say: "Continue waiting; for I will wait along with you

Or do their dreams dictate this to them, or are they a transgressing people

Or do they Say: "He made it all up" No, they simply do not believe

Let them produce a narration like this, if they are truthful

Or were they created from nothing Or was it them who created

Or did they create the heavens and the Earth No, they do not comprehend

Or do they possess the treasures of your Lord Are they in control

Or do they have a stairway that enables them to listen Then let their listeners show their proof

Or to Him belong the daughters, and to you belong the sons

Or do you ask them for a wage, thus they are burdened by the fine

Or do they know the future, thus they have it recorded

Or do they intend to scheme Indeed, it is the rejecters who are schemed against

Or do they have another god besides God God be glorified above what they set up

And if they see a spectacle from the sky, they will Say: "Piled clouds

So disregard them until they meet the Day in which they are struck

The Day when their schemes will not protect them, nor will they be helped

And for those who transgressed will be a retribution beyond this, but most of them do not know

You shall be patient for the judgement of your Lord, for you are in Our sights, and glorify the praise of your Lord when you get up

Also during the night glorify Him, and at the setting of the stars
