An-Naazi'aat

WaalnnaziAAati gharqan

Wa An-Nāzi`āti Gharqāan

I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked

Waalnnashitati nashtan

Wa An-Nāshiţāti Nashţāan

And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed

Waalssabihati sabhan

Wa As-Sābiĥāti Sabĥāan

And by those who float in space

Faalssabiqati sabqan

Fālssābiqāti Sabqāan

Then those who are foremost going ahead

Faalmudabbirati amran

Fālmudabbirāti 'Amrāan

Then those who regulate the affair

Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu

Yawma Tarjufu Ar-Rājifahu

The day on which the quaking one shall quake

TatbaAAuha alrradifatu

Tatba`uhā Ar-Rādifahu

What must happen afterwards shall follow it

Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun

Qulūbun Yawma'idhin Wājifahun

Hearts on that day shall palpitate

Absaruha khashiAAatun

Abşāruhā Khāshi`ahun

Their eyes cast down

Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

Yaqūlūna 'A'innā Lamardūdūna Fī Al-Ĥāfirahi

They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state

Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan

A'idhā Kunnā `Ižāmāan Nakhirahan

What! when we are rotten bones

Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

Qālū Tilka 'Idhāan Karratun Khāsirahun

They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss

Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun

Fa'innamā Hiya Zajratun Wāĥidahun

But it shall be only a single cry

Faitha hum bialssahirati

Fa'idhā Hum Bis-Sāhirahi

When lo! they shall be wakeful

Hal ataka hadeethu moosa

Hal 'Tāka Ĥadīthu Mūsá

Has not there come to you the story of Musa

Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

Idh Nādāhu Rabbuhu Bil-Wādi Al-Muqaddasi Ţūáan

When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice

Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

Adh/hab 'Ilá Fir`awna 'Innahu Ţaghá

Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate

Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

Faqul Hal Laka 'Ilá 'An Tazakká

Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself

Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

Wa 'Ahdiyaka 'Ilá Rabbika Fatakhshá

And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear

Faarahu alayata alkubra

Fa'arāhu Al-'Āyata Al-Kubrá

So he showed him the mighty sign

Fakaththaba waAAasa

Fakadhaba Wa `Aşá

But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed

Thumma adbara yasAAa

Thumma 'Adbara Yas`á

Then he went back hastily

Fahashara fanada

Faĥashara Fanādá

Then he gathered (men) and called out

Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla

Faqāla 'Anā Rabbukumu Al-'A`lá

Then he said: I am your lord, the most high

Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola

Fa'akhadhahu Allāhu Nakāla Al-'Ākhirati Wa Al-'Ūlá

So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life

Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha

Inna Fī Dhālika La`ibratan Liman Yakhshá

Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears

Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha

A'antum 'Ashaddu Khalqāan 'Ami As-Samā'u Banāhā

Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it

RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha

Rafa`a Samkahā Fasawwāhā

He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state

Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha

Wa 'Aghţasha Laylahā Wa 'Akhraja Đuĥāhā

And He made dark its night and brought out its light

Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha

Wa Al-'Arđa Ba`da Dhālika Daĥāhā

And the earth, He expanded it after that

Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha

Akhraja Minhā Mā'ahā Wa Mar`āhā

He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage

Waaljibala arsaha

Wa Al-Jibāla 'Arsāhā

And the mountains, He made them firm

MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

Matā`āan Lakum Wa Li'an`āmikum

A provision for you and for your cattle

Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra

Fa'idhā Jā'ati Aţ-Ţāmmatu Al-Kubrá

But when the great predominating calamity comes

Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

Yawma Yatadhakkaru Al-'Insānu Mā Sa`á

The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after

Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

Wa Burrizati Al-Jaĥīmu Liman Yará

And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees

Faamma man tagha

Fa'ammā Man Ţaghá

Then as for him who is inordinate

Waathara alhayata alddunya

Wa 'Āthara Al-Ĥayāata Ad-Dunyā

And prefers the life of this world

Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

Fa'inna Al-Jaĥīma Hiya Al-Ma'wá

Then surely the hell, that is the abode

Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa

Wa 'Ammā Man Khāfa Maqāma Rabbihi Wa Nahá An-Nafsa `Ani Al-Hawá

And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires

Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

Fa'inna Al-Jannata Hiya Al-Ma'wá

Then surely the garden-- that is the abode

Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

Yas'alūnaka `Ani As-Sā`ati 'Ayyāna Mursāhā

They ask you about the hour, when it will come

Feema anta min thikraha

Fīma 'Anta Min Dhikrāhā

About what! You are one to remind of it

Ila rabbika muntahaha

Ilá Rabbika Muntahāhā

To your Lord is the goal of it

Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

Innamā 'Anta Mundhiru Man Yakhshāhā

You are only a warner to him who would fear it

Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

Ka'annahum Yawma Yarawnahā Lam Yalbathū 'Illā `Ashīyatan 'Aw Đuĥāhā

On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it
