Surah 79 النازعات

أَبْصَارُهَا خَاشِعَةٌ Verse 9

While eyes are downcast

يَقُولُونَ أَإِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِي الْحَافِرَةِ Verse 10

(Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state

أَإِذَا كُنَّا عِظَامًا نَّخِرَةً Verse 11

Even after we are crumbled bones?

قَالُوا تِلْكَ إِذًا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ Verse 12

They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding.

فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ زَجْرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ Verse 13

Surely it will need but one shout,

فَإِذَا هُم بِالسَّاهِرَةِ Verse 14

And lo! they will be awakened.

هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰ Verse 15

Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses?

إِذْ نَادَاهُ رَبُّهُ بِالْوَادِ الْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى Verse 16

How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa,

اذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُ طَغَىٰ Verse 17

(Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled -

فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ Verse 18

And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace)?

وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ Verse 19

Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him).

فَأَرَاهُ الْآيَةَ الْكُبْرَىٰ Verse 20

And he showed him the tremendous token.

فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ Verse 21

But he denied and disobeyed,

ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَىٰ Verse 22

Then turned he away in haste,

فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ Verse 23

Then gathered he and summoned

فَقَالَ أَنَا رَبُّكُمُ الْأَعْلَىٰ Verse 24

And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest."

فَأَخَذَهُ اللَّهُ نَكَالَ الْآخِرَةِ وَالْأُولَىٰ Verse 25

So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former.

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰ Verse 26

Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth.

أَأَنتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمِ السَّمَاءُ ۚ بَنَاهَا Verse 27

Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built?

رَفَعَ سَمْكَهَا فَسَوَّاهَا Verse 28

He raised the height thereof and ordered it;

وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَاهَا Verse 29

And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof.

وَالْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَاهَا Verse 30

And after that He spread the earth,

أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَاءَهَا وَمَرْعَاهَا Verse 31

And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof,

وَالْجِبَالَ أَرْسَاهَا Verse 32

And He made fast the hills,

مَتَاعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ Verse 33

A provision for you and for your cattle.

فَإِذَا جَاءَتِ الطَّامَّةُ الْكُبْرَىٰ Verse 34

But when the great disaster cometh,

يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ الْإِنسَانُ مَا سَعَىٰ Verse 35

The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour,

وَبُرِّزَتِ الْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ Verse 36

And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth,

فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ Verse 37

Then, as for him who rebelled

وَآثَرَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا Verse 38

And chose the life of the world,

فَإِنَّ الْجَحِيمَ هِيَ الْمَأْوَىٰ Verse 39

Lo! hell will be his home.

وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِ وَنَهَى النَّفْسَ عَنِ الْهَوَىٰ Verse 40

But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust,

فَإِنَّ الْجَنَّةَ هِيَ الْمَأْوَىٰ Verse 41

Lo! the Garden will be his home.

يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَاهَا Verse 42

They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port?

فِيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكْرَاهَا Verse 43

Why (ask they)? What hast thou to tell thereof?

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهَاهَا Verse 44

Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof.

إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مُنذِرُ مَن يَخْشَاهَا Verse 45

Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it.

كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَهَا لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحَاهَا Verse 46

On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof.
