بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

  1. إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ ۝١

    When the Occurrence occurs,

  2. لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ۝٢

    There is, at its occurrence, no denial.

  3. خَافِضَةٌ رَّافِعَةٌ ۝٣

    It will bring down [some] and raise up [others].

  4. إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّا ۝٤

    When the earth is shaken with convulsion

  5. وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّا ۝٥

    And the mountains are broken down, crumbling

  6. فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءً مُّنۢبَثًّا ۝٦

    And become dust dispersing.

  7. وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٲجًا ثَلَـٰثَةً ۝٧

    And you become [of] three kinds:

  8. فَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ ۝٨

    Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

  9. وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَشْــَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَشْــَٔمَةِ ۝٩

    And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

  10. وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ۝١٠

    And the forerunners, the forerunners -

  11. أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ ۝١١

    Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]

  12. فِى جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ۝١٢

    In the Gardens of Pleasure,

  13. ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝١٣

    A [large] company of the former peoples

  14. وَقَلِيلٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَخِرِينَ ۝١٤

    And a few of the later peoples,

  15. عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّوْضُونَةٍ ۝١٥

    On thrones woven [with ornament],

  16. مُّتَّكِــِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَـٰبِلِينَ ۝١٦

    Reclining on them, facing each other.

  17. يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٲنٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ۝١٧

    There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

  18. بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ ۝١٨

    With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -

  19. لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ۝١٩

    No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated -

  20. وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ۝٢٠

    And fruit of what they select

  21. وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ۝٢١

    And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire.

  22. وَحُورٌ عِينٌ ۝٢٢

    And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,

  23. كَأَمْثَـٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُوِٕ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ ۝٢٣

    The likenesses of pearls well-protected,

  24. جَزَآءَۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُونَ ۝٢٤

    As reward for what they used to do.

  25. لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا ۝٢٥

    They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin -

  26. إِلَّا قِيلاً سَلَـٰمًا سَلَـٰمًا ۝٢٦

    Only a saying: ""Peace, peace.""

  27. وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٢٧

    The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

  28. فِى سِدْرٍ مَّخْضُودٍ ۝٢٨

    [They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed

  29. وَطَلْحٍ مَّنضُودٍ ۝٢٩

    And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]

  30. وَظِلٍّ مَّمْدُودٍ ۝٣٠

    And shade extended

  31. وَمَآءٍ مَّسْكُوبٍ ۝٣١

    And water poured out

  32. وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ ۝٣٢

    And fruit, abundant [and varied],

  33. لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍ ۝٣٣

    Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden,

  34. وَفُرُشٍ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ ۝٣٤

    And [upon] beds raised high.

  35. إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَـٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءً ۝٣٥

    Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation

  36. فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا ۝٣٦

    And made them virgins,

  37. عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًا ۝٣٧

    Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age,

  38. لِّأَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٣٨

    For the companions of the right [who are]

  39. ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝٣٩

    A company of the former peoples

  40. وَثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَخِرِينَ ۝٤٠

    And a company of the later peoples.

  41. وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ۝٤١

    And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

  42. فِى سَمُومٍ وَحَمِيمٍ ۝٤٢

    [They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water

  43. وَظِلٍّ مِّن يَحْمُومٍ ۝٤٣

    And a shade of black smoke,

  44. لَّا بَارِدٍ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ۝٤٤

    Neither cool nor beneficial.

  45. إِنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ قَبْلَ ذَٲلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ۝٤٥

    Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence,

  46. وَكَانُواْ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝٤٦

    And they used to persist in the great violation,

  47. وَكَانُواْ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ۝٤٧

    And they used to say, ""When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

  48. أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ۝٤٨

    And our forefathers [as well]?""

  49. قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْأَخِرِينَ ۝٤٩

    Say, [O Muhammad], ""Indeed, the former and the later peoples

  50. لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَـٰتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ ۝٥٠

    Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day.""

  51. ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٥١

    Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers,

  52. لَأَكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٍ مِّن زَقُّومٍ ۝٥٢

    Will be eating from trees of zaqqum

  53. فَمَالِــُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ ۝٥٣

    And filling with it your bellies

  54. فَشَـٰرِبُونَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْحَمِيمِ ۝٥٤

    And drinking on top of it from scalding water

  55. فَشَـٰرِبُونَ شُرْبَ ٱلْهِيمِ ۝٥٥

    And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels.

  56. هَـٰذَا نُزُلُهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ ۝٥٦

    That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense.

  57. نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ۝٥٧

    We have created you, so why do you not believe?

  58. أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تُمْنُونَ ۝٥٨

    Have you seen that which you emit?

  59. ءَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْخَـٰلِقُونَ ۝٥٩

    Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator?

  60. نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ ۝٦٠

    We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone

  61. عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَـٰلَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِى مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ۝٦١

    In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know.

  62. وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٦٢

    And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember?

  63. أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ ۝٦٣

    And have you seen that [seed] which you sow?

  64. ءَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلزَّٲرِعُونَ ۝٦٤

    Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower?

  65. لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَـٰهُ حُطَـٰمًا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ ۝٦٥

    If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder,

  66. إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ ۝٦٦

    [Saying], ""Indeed, we are [now] in debt;

  67. بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ ۝٦٧

    Rather, we have been deprived.""

  68. أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلْمَآءَ ٱلَّذِى تَشْرَبُونَ ۝٦٨

    And have you seen the water that you drink?

  69. ءَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنزِلُونَ ۝٦٩

    Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down?

  70. لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنَـٰهُ أُجَاجًا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ ۝٧٠

    If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful?

  71. أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِى تُورُونَ ۝٧١

    And have you seen the fire that you ignite?

  72. ءَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنشِــُٔونَ ۝٧٢

    Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer?

  73. نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَـٰهَا تَذْكِرَةً وَمَتَـٰعًا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ ۝٧٣

    We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers,

  74. فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝٧٤

    So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

  75. ۞ فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَٲقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝٧٥

    Then I swear by the setting of the stars,

  76. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ۝٧٦

    And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great.

  77. إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرْءَانٌ كَرِيمٌ ۝٧٧

    Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an

  78. فِى كِتَـٰبٍ مَّكْنُونٍ ۝٧٨

    In a Register well-protected;

  79. لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْمُطَهَّرُونَ ۝٧٩

    None touch it except the purified.

  80. تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ۝٨٠

    [It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

  81. أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ ۝٨١

    Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent

  82. وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٨٢

    And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]?

  83. فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ ۝٨٣

    Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat

  84. وَأَنتُمْ حِينَئِذٍ تَنظُرُونَ ۝٨٤

    And you are at that time looking on -

  85. وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَـٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝٨٥

    And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see -

  86. فَلَوْلَآ إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ ۝٨٦

    Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed,

  87. تَرْجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ ۝٨٧

    Bring it back, if you should be truthful?

  88. فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ ۝٨٨

    And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah,

  89. فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ ۝٨٩

    Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.

  90. وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٩٠

    And if he was of the companions of the right,

  91. فَسَلَـٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٩١

    Then [the angels will say], ""Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right.""

  92. وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ۝٩٢

    But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray,

  93. فَنُزُلٌ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ ۝٩٣

    Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water

  94. وَتَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ۝٩٤

    And burning in Hellfire

  95. إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ ۝٩٥

    Indeed, this is the true certainty,

  96. فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝٩٦

    So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
