By the [winds] scattering [dust], dispersing [it]
- فَٱلْحَـٰمِلَـٰتِ وِقْرًا2
And the [clouds] carrying a load [of water]
- فَٱلْجَـٰرِيَـٰتِ يُسْرًا3
And the ships sailing with ease
- فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَـٰتِ أَمْرًا4
And the [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

Indeed, what you are promised is true.
- وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌ6
And indeed, the recompense is to occur.
- وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ7

[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."
- إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّـٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ15
Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,
- ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ16
Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.
- كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ17
They used to sleep but little of the night,[1538]
- وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ18
And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,
- وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ19
And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.
- وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَـٰتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ20
And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]
- وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ21
And in yourselves. Then will you not see?
- وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ22
And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.
- فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ23
Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.
- هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ24
Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham?[1539] -
- إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَـٰمًاۖ قَالَ سَلَـٰمٌ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ25
When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace; [you are] a people unknown."
- فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍ سَمِينٍ26
Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf.
- فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ27
And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"
- فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَـٰمٍ عَلِيمٍ28
And he felt from them apprehension.[1540] They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.
- فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌ29
And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"
- قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ30
They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."
- قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ31
[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
- قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ32
They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals[1541]
- لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ33
To send down upon them stones of clay,
- مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ34
Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."
- فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ35
So We brought out whoever was in them [i.e., the cities] of the believers.
- فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ36
And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.[1542]
- وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةً لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ37
And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.
- وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ38
And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.[1543]
- فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَـٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ39
But he turned away with his supporters and said, "A magician or a madman."
- فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ40
So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.
- وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ41
And in ʿAad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.[1544]
- مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ42
It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.
- وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ43
And in Thamūd, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time."
- فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّـٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ44
But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.
- فَمَا ٱسْتَطَـٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ45
And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.
- وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَـٰسِقِينَ46
And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.
- وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ47
And the heaven We constructed with strength,[1545] and indeed, We are [its] expander.
- وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَـٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَـٰهِدُونَ48
And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.
- وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ49
And of all things We created two mates [i.e., counterparts]; perhaps you will remember.
- فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ50
So flee to Allāh.[1546] Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.
- وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ51
And do not make [as equal] with Allāh another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.
- كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ52
Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman."
- أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ53
Did they suggest it to them?[1547] Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.
- فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ54
So leave them, [O Muḥammad], for you are not to be blamed.
- وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ55
And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.
- وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ56
And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.
- مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ57
I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.
- إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ58
Indeed, it is Allāh who is the [continual] Provider,[1548] the firm possessor of strength.
- فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَـٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ59
And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their companions [i.e., predecessors], so let them not impatiently urge Me.
- فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ60
And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.
