50:1  Qaf. By the Glorious Qur'an.

50:2  Nay, they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves. So the disbelievers say: "This is a strange thing!"

50:3  "When we are dead and have become dust. (Shall we be resurrected) That is a far return."

50:4  We know that which the earth takes of them, and with Us is a Book preserved.

50:5  Nay, but they have denied the truth when it has come to them, so they are in a Marij state.

50:6  Have they not looked at the heaven above them, how We have made it and adorned it, and there are no Furuj in it

50:7  And the earth! We have spread it out, and set thereon Rawasi standing firm, and We planted in it every lovely (Bahij) pair.

50:8  An insight and a Reminder for every servant who turns to Allah in repentance.

50:9  And We send down blessed water (rain) from the sky, then We produce therewith Jannat and grain that are reaped.

50:10  And date palms Basiqat, with arranged clusters.

50:11  A provision for the servants. And We give life therewith to a dead land. Thus will be the Resurrection.

50:12  Denied before them the people of Nuh, and the Dwellers of Rass, and Thamud,

50:13  And `Ad, and Fir`awn, and the brethren of Lut,

50:14  And the Dwellers of Al-Aykah, and the people of Tubba`. Everyone of them denied (their) Messengers, so My threat took effect.

50:15  Were We then tired with the first creation Nay, they are in confused doubt about a new creation.

50:16  And indeed We have created man, and We know what his self whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein.

50:17  (Remember) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being), one sitting on the right and one on the left.

50:18  Not a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it).

50:19  And the stupor of death will come in truth: "This is what you have been avoiding!"

50:20  And the Trumpet will be blown -- that will be the Day of the threat.

50:21  And every person will come forth along with a Sa'iq and a Shahid.

50:22  (It will be said to the sinners): "Indeed you were heedless of this. Now We have removed from you, your covering, and sharp is your sight this Day!"

50:23  And his companion (angel) will say: "Here is (his record) ready with me!"

50:24  (Allah will say to the angels:) "Both of you throw into Hell every stubborn disbeliever"

50:25  "Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter,"

50:26  "Who set up another god with Allah. Then both of you cast him in the severe torment."

50:27  His companion (devil) will say: "Our Lord! I did not push him to transgression, but he was himself in error far astray."

50:28  (Allah) will say: "Dispute not in front of Me, I had already in advance sent you the threat."

50:29  "The sentence that comes from Me cannot be changed, and I am not unjust to the servants."

50:30  On the Day when We will say to Hell: "Are you filled" It will say: "Are there any more"

50:31  And Paradise will be Uzlifat to those who had Taqwa, not far off.

50:32  (It will be said): "This is what you were promised -- (it is) for those returning in sincere repentance, and Hafiz."

50:33  "Who feared Ar-Rahman unseen and brought a heart turned in repentance."

50:34  "Enter you therein in peace and security -- this is a Day of eternal life!"

50:35  There they will have all that they desire -- and We have more.

50:36  And how many a generation We have destroyed before them who were stronger in power than they. And they went about the land! Could they find any place of refuge

50:37  Verily, therein is indeed a reminder for him who has a heart or gives ear while he is heedful.

50:38  And indeed We created the heavens and the earth and all between them in six Days and nothing of fatigue touched Us.

50:39  So bear with patience all that they say, and glorify the praises of your Lord, before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting.

50:40  And during a part of the night (also) glorify His praises and (so likewise) after the prostrations.

50:41  And listen on the Day when the caller will call from a near place.

50:42  The Day when they will hear As-Sayhah in truth, that will be the Day of coming out.

50:43  Verily, it is We Who give life and cause death; and to Us is the final return.

50:44  On the Day when the earth shall be cleft, from off them (they will come out) hastening forth. That will be a gathering, quite easy for Us.

50:45  We know best what they say. And you are not the one to force them. But warn by the Qur'an; him who fears My threat.
