Sad 38:50–88

38:50Page 456

جَنَّٰتِ عَدۡنٖ مُّفَتَّحَةٗ لَّهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡوَٰبُ ٥٠

Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.

38:51Page 456

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ فِيهَا يَدۡعُونَ فِيهَا بِفَٰكِهَةٖ كَثِيرَةٖ وَشَرَابٖ ٥١

Reclining within them, they will call therein for abundant fruit and drink.

38:52Page 456

۞ وَعِندَهُمۡ قَٰصِرَٰتُ ٱلطَّرۡفِ أَتۡرَابٌ ٥٢

And with them will be women limiting [their] glances¹ and of equal age.

38:53Page 456

هَٰذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِيَوۡمِ ٱلۡحِسَابِ ٥٣

This is what you, [the righteous], are promised for the Day of Account.

38:54Page 456

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَرِزۡقُنَا مَا لَهُۥ مِن نَّفَادٍ ٥٤

Indeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion.

38:55Page 456

هَٰذَاۚ وَإِنَّ لِلطَّٰغِينَ لَشَرَّ مَـَٔابٖ ٥٥

This [is so]. But indeed, for the transgressors is an evil place of return -

38:56Page 456

جَهَنَّمَ يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمِهَادُ ٥٦

Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the resting place.

38:57Page 456

هَٰذَا فَلۡيَذُوقُوهُ حَمِيمٞ وَغَسَّاقٞ ٥٧

This - so let them taste it - is scalding water and [foul] purulence.

38:58Page 456

وَءَاخَرُ مِن شَكۡلِهِۦٓ أَزۡوَٰجٌ ٥٨

And other [punishments] of its type [in various] kinds.

38:59Page 456

هَٰذَا فَوۡجٞ مُّقۡتَحِمٞ مَّعَكُمۡ لَا مَرۡحَبَۢا بِهِمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ صَالُواْ ٱلنَّارِ ٥٩

[Its inhabitants will say], "This is a company bursting in with you. No welcome for them. Indeed, they will burn in the Fire."

38:60Page 456

قَالُواْ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا مَرۡحَبَۢا بِكُمۡۖ أَنتُمۡ قَدَّمۡتُمُوهُ لَنَاۖ فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡقَرَارُ ٦٠

They will say, "Nor you! No welcome for you. You, [our leaders], brought this upon us, and wretched is the settlement."

38:61Page 456

قَالُواْ رَبَّنَا مَن قَدَّمَ لَنَا هَٰذَا فَزِدۡهُ عَذَابٗا ضِعۡفٗا فِي ٱلنَّارِ ٦١

They will say, "Our Lord, whoever brought this upon us - increase for him double punishment in the Fire."

38:62Page 457

وَقَالُواْ مَا لَنَا لَا نَرَىٰ رِجَالٗا كُنَّا نَعُدُّهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَشۡرَارِ ٦٢

And they will say, "Why do we not see men whom we used to count among the worst?¹

38:63Page 457

أَتَّخَذۡنَٰهُمۡ سِخۡرِيًّا أَمۡ زَاغَتۡ عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرُ ٦٣

Is it [because] we took them in ridicule, or has [our] vision turned away from them?"

38:64Page 457

إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَحَقّٞ تَخَاصُمُ أَهۡلِ ٱلنَّارِ ٦٤

Indeed, that is truth [i.e., reality] - the quarreling of the people of the Fire.

38:65Page 457

قُلۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ مُنذِرٞۖ وَمَا مِنۡ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ ٱلۡقَهَّارُ ٦٥

Say, [O Muḥammad], "I am only a warner, and there is not any deity except Allāh, the One, the Prevailing,¹

38:66Page 457

رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡغَفَّٰرُ ٦٦

Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Exalted in Might,¹ the Perpetual Forgiver."²

38:67Page 457

قُلۡ هُوَ نَبَؤٌاْ عَظِيمٌ ٦٧

Say, "It is great news

38:68Page 457

أَنتُمۡ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضُونَ ٦٨

From which you turn away.

38:69Page 457

مَا كَانَ لِيَ مِنۡ عِلۡمِۭ بِٱلۡمَلَإِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَخۡتَصِمُونَ ٦٩

I had no knowledge of the exalted assembly [of angels] when they were disputing [the creation of Adam].

38:70Page 457

إِن يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَيَّ إِلَّآ أَنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٌ ٧٠

It has not been revealed to me except that I am a clear warner."

38:71Page 457

إِذۡ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّي خَٰلِقُۢ بَشَرٗا مِّن طِينٖ ٧١

[So mention] when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay.

38:72Page 457

فَإِذَا سَوَّيۡتُهُۥ وَنَفَخۡتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُواْ لَهُۥ سَٰجِدِينَ ٧٢

So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul,¹ then fall down to him in prostration."

38:73Page 457

فَسَجَدَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعُونَ ٧٣

So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely,

38:74Page 457

إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٧٤

Except Iblees;¹ he was arrogant and became among the disbelievers.

38:75Page 457

قَالَ يَٰٓإِبۡلِيسُ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَن تَسۡجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقۡتُ بِيَدَيَّۖ أَسۡتَكۡبَرۡتَ أَمۡ كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَالِينَ ٧٥

[Allāh] said, "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands?¹ Were you arrogant [then], or were you [already] among the haughty?"

38:76Page 457

قَالَ أَنَا۠ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡهُ خَلَقۡتَنِي مِن نَّارٖ وَخَلَقۡتَهُۥ مِن طِينٖ ٧٦

He said, "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay."

38:77Page 457

قَالَ فَٱخۡرُجۡ مِنۡهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٞ ٧٧

[Allāh] said, "Then get out of it [i.e., Paradise], for indeed, you are expelled.

38:78Page 457

وَإِنَّ عَلَيۡكَ لَعۡنَتِيٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ ٧٨

And indeed, upon you is My curse until the Day of Recompense."

38:79Page 457

قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرۡنِيٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ ٧٩

He said, "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."

38:80Page 457

قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُنظَرِينَ ٨٠

[Allāh] said, "So indeed, you are of those reprieved

38:81Page 457

إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡوَقۡتِ ٱلۡمَعۡلُومِ ٨١

Until the Day of the time well-known."

38:82Page 457

قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَأُغۡوِيَنَّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ ٨٢

[Iblees] said, "By Your might, I will surely mislead them all

38:83Page 457

إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنۡهُمُ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ ٨٣

Except, among them, Your chosen servants."

38:84Page 458

قَالَ فَٱلۡحَقُّ وَٱلۡحَقَّ أَقُولُ ٨٤

[Allāh] said, "The truth [is My oath], and the truth I say -

38:85Page 458

لَأَمۡلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنكَ وَمِمَّن تَبِعَكَ مِنۡهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ ٨٥

[That] I will surely fill Hell with you and those of them that follow you all together."

38:86Page 458

قُلۡ مَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٖ وَمَآ أَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلۡمُتَكَلِّفِينَ ٨٦

Say, [O Muḥammad], "I do not ask you for it [i.e., the Qur’ān] any payment, and I am not of the pretentious.

38:87Page 458

إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ لِّلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٨٧

It is but a reminder to the worlds.

38:88Page 458

وَلَتَعۡلَمُنَّ نَبَأَهُۥ بَعۡدَ حِينِۭ ٨٨

And you will surely know [the truth of] its information after a time."
