81.The Overthrowing

1
إِذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ
When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]
2
وَإِذَا النُّجُومُ انكَدَرَتْ
And when the stars fall, dispersing,
3
وَإِذَا الْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ
And when the mountains are removed
4
وَإِذَا الْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ
And when full-term she-camels are neglected
5
وَإِذَا الْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ
And when the wild beasts are gathered
6
وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ
And when the seas are filled with flame
7
وَإِذَا النُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ
And when the souls are paired
8
وَإِذَا الْمَوْءُودَةُ سُئِلَتْ
And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked
9
بِأَيِّ ذَنبٍ قُتِلَتْ
For what sin she was killed
10
وَإِذَا الصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ
And when the pages are made public
11
وَإِذَا السَّمَاءُ كُشِطَتْ
And when the sky is stripped away
12
وَإِذَا الْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ
And when Hellfire is set ablaze
13
وَإِذَا الْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ
And when Paradise is brought near,
14
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا أَحْضَرَتْ
A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
15
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالْخُنَّسِ
So I swear by the retreating stars -
16
الْجَوَارِ الْكُنَّسِ
Those that run [their courses] and disappear -
17
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ
And by the night as it closes in
18
وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ
And by the dawn when it breathes
19
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
[That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger
20
ذِي قُوَّةٍ عِندَ ذِي الْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍ
[Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],
21
مُّطَاعٍ ثَمَّ أَمِينٍ
Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy.
22
وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجْنُونٍ
And your companion is not [at all] mad.
23
وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ بِالْأُفُقِ الْمُبِينِ
And he has already seen Gabriel in the clear horizon.
24
وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍ
And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.
25
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَانٍ رَّجِيمٍ
And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens].
26
فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ
So where are you going?
27
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
It is not except a reminder to the worlds
28
لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ
For whoever wills among you to take a right course.
29
وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ
And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds.
