54:1  The Hour has drawn near and the moon is split
54:2  If they see a sign, they turn away, and say, ‘An incessant magic!’
54:3  They denied, and followed their own desires, and every matter has a setting [appropriate to it]
54:4  There have already come to them reports containing admonishment
54:5  [and representing] far-reaching wisdom; but warnings are of no avail
54:6  So turn away from them! The day when the Caller calls to a dire thing
54:7  with a humbled look [in their eyes], they will emerge from the graves as if they were scattered locusts
54:8  scrambling toward the summoner. The faithless will say, ‘This is a hard day!’
54:9  The people of Noah impugned before them. So they impugned Our servant and said, ‘A crazy man,’ and he was reviled
54:10  Thereat he invoked his Lord, [saying,] ‘I have been overcome, so help [me].&rsquo
54:11  Then We opened the gates of the sky with pouring waters
54:12  and We made the earth burst forth with springs, and the waters met for a preordained purpose
54:13  We bore him on a vessel made of planks and nails
54:14  which sailed [over the flood waters] in Our sight, as a retribution for him who was repudiated
54:15  Certainly We have left it as a sign; so is there anyone who will be admonished
54:16  So how were My punishment and My warnings
54:17  Certainly We have made the Qur’an simple for the sake of admonishment. So is there anyone who will be admonished
54:18  [The people of] ‘a€d impugned [their apostle]. So how were My punishment and My warnings
54:19  Indeed We unleashed upon them an icy gale on an incessantly ill-fated day
54:20  knocking down people as if they were trunks of uprooted palm trees
54:21  So how were My punishment and My warnings?
54:22  Certainly We have made the Qur’an simple for the sake of admonishment. So is there anyone who will be admonished
54:23  [The people of] Thamud denied the warnings
54:24  and they said, ‘Are we to follow a lone human from ourselves?! Indeed then we would be in error and madness.’
54:25  ‘Has the Reminder been cast upon him from among us? Rather he is a self-conceited liar.’
54:26  ‘Tomorrow they will know who is a self-conceited liar
54:27  We are sending the She-camel as a trial for them; so watch them and be steadfast
54:28  Inform them that the water is to be dispensed between them; every drinking will be attended.’
54:29  But they called their companion, and he took [a knife] and hamstrung [her]
54:30  So how were My punishment and My warnings?
54:31  We sent against them a single Cry, and they became like the dry sticks of a corral builder
54:32  Certainly We have made the Qur’an simple for the sake of admonishment. So is there anyone who will be admonished
54:33  And the people of Lot denied the warnings
54:34  We unleashed a rain of stones upon them, excepting the family of Lot, whom We delivered at dawn
54:35  as a blessing from Us. Thus do We reward those who give thanks
54:36  He had certainly warned them of Our punishment, but they disputed the warnings
54:37  Certainly they even solicited of him his guests, whereat We blotted out their eyes, [saying,] ‘Taste My punishment and My warnings!’
54:38  Certainly early at dawn there visited them an abiding punishment
54:39  ‘Taste My punishment and My warnings!’
54:40  Certainly We have made the Qur’an simple for the sake of admonishment. So is there anyone who will be admonished
54:41  Certainly the warnings came to Pharaoh’s cla
54:42  who denied all of Our signs. So We seized them with the seizing of One [who is] all-mighty, Omnipotent
54:43  Are your faithless better than those, or have you [been granted] some immunity in the scriptures
54:44  Do they say, ‘We are a confederate league’
54:45  The league will be routed and turn its back [to flee]
54:46  Rather the Hour is their tryst; and the Hour will be most calamitous and bitter
54:47  Indeed the guilty are in error and madness
54:48  The day when they are dragged into the Fire on their faces, [it will be said to them,] ‘Taste the touch of hell!’
54:49  Indeed We have created everything in a measure
54:50  and Our command is but a single [word], like the twinkling of an eye
54:51  Certainly We have destroyed your likes. So is there anyone who will be admonished
54:52  Everything they have done is in the books
54:53  and everything big and small, is committed to writing
54:54  Indeed the Godwary will be amid gardens and streams
54:55  in the abode of truthfulness with an omnipotent King
