52:1
By the Mount
52:2
And a Scripture inscribe
52:3
On fine parchment unrolled
52:4
And the House frequented
52:5
And the roof exalted
52:6
And the sea kept filled
52:7
Lo! the doom of thy Lord will surely come to pass
52:8
There is none that can ward it off
52:9
On the day when the heaven will heave with (awful) heaving
52:10
And the mountains move away with (awful) movement
52:11
Then woe that day unto the denier
52:12
Who play in talk of grave matters
52:13
The day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hel
52:14
(And it is said unto them): This is the Fire which ye were wont to deny
52:15
Is this magic, or do ye not see
52:16
Endure the heat thereof, and whether ye are patient of it or impatient of it is all one for you. Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do
52:17
Lo! those who kept their duty dwell in gardens and delight
52:18
Happy because of what their Lord hath given them, and (because) their Lord hath warded off from them the torment of hell-fire
52:19
(And it is said unto them): Eat and drink in health (as a reward) for what ye used to do
52:20
Reclining on ranged couches. And we wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes
52:21
And they who believe and whose seed follow them in faith, We cause their seed to join them (there), and We deprive them of nought of their (life's) work. Every man is a pledge for that which he hath earned
52:22
And We provide them with fruit and meat such as they desire
52:23
There they pass from hand to hand a cup wherein is neither vanity nor cause of sin
52:24
And there go round, waiting on them menservants of their own, as they were hidden pearls
52:25
And some of them draw near unto others, questioning
52:26
Saying: Lo! of old, when we were with our families, we were ever anxious
52:27
But Allah hath been gracious unto us and hath preserved us from the torment of the breath of Fire
52:28
Lo! we used to pray unto Him of old. Lo! He is the Benign, the Merciful
52:29
Therefor warn (men, O Muhammad). By the grace of Allah thou art neither soothsayer nor madman
52:30
Or say they: (he is) a poet, (one) for whom we may expect the accident of time
52:31
Say (unto them): Except (your fill)! Lo! I am with you among the expectant
52:32
Do their minds command them to do this, or are they an outrageous folk
52:33
Or say they: He hath invented it? Nay, but they will not believe
52:34
Then let them produce speech the like thereof, if they are truthful
52:35
Or were they created out of naught? Or are they the creators
52:36
Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they are sure of nothing
52:37
Or do they own the treasures of thy Lord? Or have they been given charge (thereof)
52:38
Or have they any stairway (unto heaven) by means of which they overhear (decrees). Then let their listener produce some warrant manifest
52:39
Or hath He daughters whereas ye have sons
52:40
Or askest thou (Muhammad) a fee from them so that they are plunged in debt
52:41
Or possess they the Unseen so that they can write (it) down
52:42
Or seek they to ensnare (the messenger)? But those who disbelieve, they are the ensnared
52:43
Or have they any god beside Allah? Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)
52:44
And if they were to see a fragment of the heaven falling, they would say: A heap of clouds
52:45
Then let them be (O Muhammad), till they meet their day, in which they will be thunder-stricken
52:46
A day in which their guile will naught avail them, nor will they be helped
52:47
And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a punishment beyond that. But most of them know not
52:48
So wait patiently (O Muhammad) for thy Lord's decree, for surely thou art in Our sight; and hymn the praise of thy Lord when thou uprisest
52:49
And in the night-time also hymn His praise, and at the setting of the stars
