002Ayah 2 of 56
arise and warn,
003Ayah 3 of 56
and proclaim the greatness of your Lord,
004Ayah 4 of 56
and purify your garments,
005Ayah 5 of 56
and shun idol worshiping[2],
Translation notes: [2] And other sins and bad conducts and morals.
006Ayah 6 of 56
and do not do a favor for a greater return[3],
Translation notes: [3] Or: do not consider your good deeds as a favor to Allah, thinking of your little deeds as abundant.
007Ayah 7 of 56
and be patient for the sake of your Lord.
008Ayah 8 of 56
When the Trumpet is sounded[4],
Translation notes: [4] For the second time, causing all to rise from the dead for resurrection. See 39:68.
009Ayah 9 of 56
that Day will be a difficult day,
010Ayah 10 of 56
not easy for the disbelievers.
011Ayah 11 of 56
Leave me to deal with the one whom I created lonely[5],
Translation notes: [5] i.e., having no wealth or children. It refers to al-Walīd bin al-Mughīrah, who was impressed by the Qur’an, yet he publicly denied it to win the approval of the pagans of Makkah.
012Ayah 12 of 56
and gave him abundant wealth,
013Ayah 13 of 56
and sons by his side,
014Ayah 14 of 56
and gave him a life of comfort and power,
015Ayah 15 of 56
yet he aspires that I should give him more.
016Ayah 16 of 56
By no means! For he has been stubborn against Our verses.
017Ayah 17 of 56
I will subject him to an unbearable punishment.
018Ayah 18 of 56
For he reflected and plotted [against the Qur’an][6].
Translation notes: [6] In order to discredit it.
019Ayah 19 of 56
May he perish, how he plotted!
020Ayah 20 of 56
Again, may he perish, how he plotted!
021Ayah 21 of 56
Then he looked around,
022Ayah 22 of 56
then he frowned and scowled,
023Ayah 23 of 56
then turned away with arrogance,
024Ayah 24 of 56
then said, “This is nothing but magic from the past.
025Ayah 25 of 56
This is nothing but the words of a man.”
026Ayah 26 of 56
Soon I will make him burn in the Scorching Fire[7].
Translation notes: [7] "Saqar" is one of the names of Hell.
027Ayah 27 of 56
How do you know what Scorching Fire is?
028Ayah 28 of 56
It leaves nothing and spares no one,
029Ayah 29 of 56
scorching the skin.
030Ayah 30 of 56
It is overseen by nineteen [angels].
031Ayah 31 of 56
We have only appointed angels as keepers of the Fire, and We have only made their number as a test for the disbelievers[8], so that those who were given the Scripture may have certainty and the believers may increase in faith; and neither those who were given the Scripture nor the believers may have any doubts; and so that those [hypocrites] in whose hearts is sickness and the disbelievers may say, “What does Allah mean by this number?” Thus Allah causes to stray whom He wills and guides whom He wills, and none knows the soldiers of your Lord but He. This is but a reminder to mankind.
Translation notes: [8] To say what they want to say, so their punishment will be multiplied for them. Abu Jahl, one of the chief pagans in Makkah, made fun of the Prophet (ﷺ) when they came to know that the keepers of Hell are nineteen angels, so he ridiculed this number and said that it is an easy number to overcome.
032Ayah 32 of 56
No indeed! By the moon,
033Ayah 33 of 56
and by the night when it departs,
034Ayah 34 of 56
and by the dawn when it brightens,
035Ayah 35 of 56
Hellfire is indeed one of the greatest matters,
036Ayah 36 of 56
a warning to mankind,
037Ayah 37 of 56
to whoever among you chooses to advance or regress.
038Ayah 38 of 56
Every soul is held in pledge[9] for its deeds,
Translation notes: [9] i.e., held responsible.
039Ayah 39 of 56
except the People of the Right[10],
Translation notes: [10] i.e., the believers who receive their records of deeds in their right hands.
040Ayah 40 of 56
who will be in gardens, asking one another
041Ayah 41 of 56
about the wicked:
042Ayah 42 of 56
“What brought you to Hell?”
043Ayah 43 of 56
They will say, “We were not among those who prayed,
044Ayah 44 of 56
nor did we feed the poor,
045Ayah 45 of 56
and we indulged in falsehood along with those who indulged in it,
046Ayah 46 of 56
and we denied the Day of Judgment,
047Ayah 47 of 56
until the certainty [of death] came to us.”
048Ayah 48 of 56
So the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them.
049Ayah 49 of 56
Then what is the matter with them that they turn away from the Reminder,
050Ayah 50 of 56
as if they were terrified wild asses,
051Ayah 51 of 56
fleeing from a lion?
052Ayah 52 of 56
In fact, each one of them desires that open [divine] letters be sent to each of them[11].
Translation notes: [11] Instead of Muhammad (ﷺ), not due to the lack of proofs or signs presented to them but out of obstinacy and arrogance.
053Ayah 53 of 56
By no means! They rather do not fear the Hereafter.
054Ayah 54 of 56
No indeed! This [Qur’an] is a reminder.
055Ayah 55 of 56
So whoever wills may take heed.
056Ayah 56 of 56
But they will not take heed unless Allah so wills. He is most worthy to be feared and most worthy to forgive.
