بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[1]إِذَا ٱلشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ .

[1]When the sun is overthrown,

[2]وَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ ٱنكَدَرَتْ .

[2]And when the stars fall,

[3]وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ .

[3]And when the hills are moved,

[4]وَإِذَا ٱلْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ .

[4]And when the camels big with young are abandoned,

[5]وَإِذَا ٱلْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ .

[5]And when the wild beasts are herded together,

[6]وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ .

[6]And when the seas rise,

[7]وَإِذَا ٱلنُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ .

[7]And when souls are reunited,

[8]وَإِذَا ٱلْمَوْءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتْ .

[8]And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked

[9]بِأَىِّ ذَنۢبٍۢ قُتِلَتْ .

[9]For what sin she was slain,

[10]وَإِذَا ٱلصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ .

[10]And when the pages are laid open,

[11]وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ كُشِطَتْ .

[11]And when the sky is torn away,

[12]وَإِذَا ٱلْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ .

[12]And when hell is lighted,

[13]وَإِذَا ٱلْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ .

[13]And when the Garden is brought nigh,

[14]عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌۭ مَّآ أَحْضَرَتْ .

[14](Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready.

[15]فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلْخُنَّسِ .

[15]Oh, but I call to witness the planets,

[16]ٱلْجَوَارِ ٱلْكُنَّسِ .

[16]The stars which rise and set,

[17]وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ .

[17]And the close of night,

[18]وَٱلصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ .

[18]And the breath of morning

[19]إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍۢ كَرِيمٍۢ .

[19]That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger,

[20]ذِى قُوَّةٍ عِندَ ذِى ٱلْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍۢ .

[20]Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne,

[21]مُّطَاعٍۢ ثَمَّ أَمِينٍۢ .

[21](One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy;

[22]وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجْنُونٍۢ .

[22]And your comrade is not mad.

[23]وَلَقَدْ رَءَاهُ بِٱلْأُفُقِ ٱلْمُبِينِ .

[23]Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon.

[24]وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى ٱلْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍۢ .

[24]And he is not avid of the Unseen.

[25]وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَٰنٍۢ رَّجِيمٍۢ .

[25]Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned.

[26]فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ .

[26]Whither then go ye?

[27]إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌۭ لِّلْعَٰلَمِينَ .

[27]This is naught else than a reminder unto creation,

[28]لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ .

[28]Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.

[29]وَمَا تَشَآءُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ .

[29]And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation.
