وَٱلطُّورِ ١

By the mount

وَكِتَٰبٖ مَّسۡطُورٖ ٢

And [by] a Book inscribed¹

فِي رَقّٖ مَّنشُورٖ ٣

In parchment spread open

وَٱلۡبَيۡتِ ٱلۡمَعۡمُورِ ٤

And [by] the frequented House¹

وَٱلسَّقۡفِ ٱلۡمَرۡفُوعِ ٥

And [by] the ceiling [i.e., heaven] raised high

وَٱلۡبَحۡرِ ٱلۡمَسۡجُورِ ٦

And [by] the sea set on fire,¹

52:7–10Page 523

إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَٰقِعٞ ٧

Indeed, the punishment of your Lord will occur.

مَّا لَهُۥ مِن دَافِعٖ ٨

Of it there is no preventer.

يَوۡمَ تَمُورُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ مَوۡرٗا ٩

On the Day the heaven will sway with circular motion

وَتَسِيرُ ٱلۡجِبَالُ سَيۡرٗا ١٠

And the mountains will pass on, departing¹ -

52:11–12Page 523

فَوَيۡلٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ ١١

Then woe, that Day, to the deniers,

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ فِي خَوۡضٖ يَلۡعَبُونَ ١٢

Who are in [empty] discourse amusing themselves.

52:13–14Page 523

يَوۡمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا ١٣

The Day they are thrust toward the fire of Hell with a [violent] thrust, [its angels will say],

هَٰذِهِ ٱلنَّارُ ٱلَّتِي كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ ١٤

"This is the Fire which you used to deny.

52:15–16Page 524

أَفَسِحۡرٌ هَٰذَآ أَمۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ١٥

Then is this magic, or do you not see?

ٱصۡلَوۡهَا فَٱصۡبِرُوٓاْ أَوۡ لَا تَصۡبِرُواْ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡۖ إِنَّمَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ١٦

[Enter to] burn therein; then be patient or impatient - it is all the same for you. You are only being recompensed [for] what you used to do."

52:17–18Page 524

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّٰتٖ وَنَعِيمٖ ١٧

Indeed, the righteous will be in gardens and pleasure,

فَٰكِهِينَ بِمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمۡ رَبُّهُمۡ وَوَقَىٰهُمۡ رَبُّهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ ١٨

Enjoying what their Lord has given them, and their Lord protected them from the punishment of Hellfire.

52:19–20Page 524

كُلُواْ وَٱشۡرَبُواْ هَنِيٓـَٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ١٩

[They will be told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٖ مَّصۡفُوفَةٖۖ وَزَوَّجۡنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٖ ٢٠

They will be reclining on thrones lined up, and We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes.

52:21Page 524

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَٱتَّبَعَتۡهُمۡ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَٰنٍ أَلۡحَقۡنَا بِهِمۡ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمۡ وَمَآ أَلَتۡنَٰهُم مِّنۡ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَيۡءٖۚ كُلُّ ٱمۡرِيِٕۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٞ ٢١

And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith - We will join with them their descendants, and We will not deprive them of anything of their deeds.¹ Every person, for what he earned, is retained.²

52:22–23Page 524

وَأَمۡدَدۡنَٰهُم بِفَٰكِهَةٖ وَلَحۡمٖ مِّمَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ ٢٢

And We will provide them with fruit and meat from whatever they desire.

يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأۡسٗا لَّا لَغۡوٞ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأۡثِيمٞ ٢٣

They will exchange with one another a cup [of wine] wherein [results] no ill speech or commission of sin.

52:24Page 524

۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ غِلۡمَانٞ لَّهُمۡ كَأَنَّهُمۡ لُؤۡلُؤٞ مَّكۡنُونٞ ٢٤

There will circulate among them [servant] boys [especially] for them, as if they were pearls well-protected.

52:25Page 524

وَأَقۡبَلَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ ٢٥

And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other.

52:26–28Page 524

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبۡلُ فِيٓ أَهۡلِنَا مُشۡفِقِينَ ٢٦

They will say, "Indeed, we were previously among our people fearful [of displeasing Allāh].

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ ٢٧

So Allāh conferred favor upon us and protected us from the punishment of the Scorching Fire.

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبۡلُ نَدۡعُوهُۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ٢٨

Indeed, we used to supplicate¹ Him before. Indeed, it is He who is the Beneficent, the Merciful."

52:29Page 524

فَذَكِّرۡ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٖ وَلَا مَجۡنُونٍ ٢٩

So remind, [O Muḥammad], for you are not, by the favor of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman.

52:30–31Page 524

أَمۡ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٞ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيۡبَ ٱلۡمَنُونِ ٣٠

Or do they say [of you], "A poet for whom we await a misfortune of time"?¹

قُلۡ تَرَبَّصُواْ فَإِنِّي مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُتَرَبِّصِينَ ٣١

Say, "Wait, for indeed I am, with you, among the waiters."
