الۡحَاقَّةُ ۙ ١
69:1
The Inevitable Reality -
مَا الۡحَآقَّةُ ۚ ٢
69:2
What is the Inevitable Reality?
وَمَاۤ اَدۡرٰٮكَ مَا الۡحَآقَّةُ ؕ ٣
69:3
And what can make you know what is the Inevitable Reality?
كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُوۡدُ وَعَادٌۢ بِالۡقَارِعَةِ ؕ ٤
69:4
Thamūd and 'Aad denied the Striking Calamity.
فَاَمَّا ثَمُوۡدُ فَاُهۡلِكُوۡا بِالطَّاغِيَةِ ؕ ٥
69:5
So as for Thamūd, they were destroyed by the overpowering [blast].
وَاَمَّا عَادٌ فَاُهۡلِكُوۡا بِرِيۡحٍ صَرۡصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٍ ۙ ٦
69:6
And as for 'Aad, they were destroyed by a fierce, bitter wind,
سَخَّرَهَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ سَبۡعَ لَيَالٍ وَّثَمٰنِيَةَ اَيَّامٍ حُسُوۡمًا ۙ فَتَرَى الۡقَوۡمَ فِيۡهَا صَرۡعٰى ۙ كَاَنَّهُمۡ اَعۡجَازُ نَخۡلٍ خَاوِيَةٍ ۚ ٧
69:7
Which [Allah] imposed upon them for seven nights and eight days in succession, so you would see the people therein fallen as if they were hollow trunks of palm trees.
فَهَلۡ تَرٰى لَهُمۡ مِّنۡ بَاقِيَةٍ ؕ ٨
69:8
Then do you see of them any remains?
وَجَآءَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ وَمَنۡ قَبۡلَهٗ وَالۡمُؤۡتَفِكٰتُ بِالۡخَاطِئَةِ ۚ ٩
69:9
And Pharaoh and those before him and the overturned cities [of Sodom and Gomorrah] brought [the consequence of] sin.
فَعَصَوۡا رَسُوۡلَ رَبِّهِمۡ فَاَخَذَهُمۡ اَخۡذَةً رَّابِيَةً ؕ ١٠
69:10
And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, so He seized them with a seizure exceeding [anything imagined].
اِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا الۡمَآءُ حَمَلۡنٰكُمۡ فِى الۡجَارِيَةِ ۙ ١١
69:11
Indeed, when the water overflowed, We carried your ancestors in the running ship
لِنَجۡعَلَهَا لَكُمۡ تَذۡكِرَةً وَّتَعِيَهَاۤ اُذُنٌ وَّاعِيَةٌ ؕ ١٢
69:12
That We might make it for you a reminder and [that] a conscious ear would be conscious of it.
فَاِذَا نُفِخَ فِىۡ الصُّوۡرِ نَفۡخَةٌ وَّاحِدَةٌ ۙ ١٣
69:13
Then when the Horn is blown with one [single] blast
وَّحُمِلَتِ الۡاَرۡضُ وَالۡجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَّاحِدَةً ۙ ١٤
69:14
And the earth and the mountains are lifted and leveled with one blow -
فَيَوۡمَئِذٍ وَّقَعَتِ الۡوَاقِعَةُ ۙ ١٥
69:15
Then, on that Day, the Occurrence will occur.
وَانۡشَقَّتِ السَّمَآءُ فَهِيَ يَوۡمَئِذٍ وَّاهِيَةٌ ۙ ١٦
69:16
And the heaven will split apart, for that Day it will be infirm.
وَّالۡمَلَكُ عَلٰىۤ اَرۡجَآئِهَا ؕ وَيَحۡمِلُ عَرۡشَ رَبِّكَ فَوۡقَهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٍ ثَمٰنِيَةٌ ؕ ١٧
69:17
And the angels will be on its borders; and there will bear the Throne of your Lord above them that day eight [of them].
يَوۡمَئِذٍ تُعۡرَضُوۡنَ لَا تَخۡفٰى مِنۡكُمۡ خَافِيَةٌ ؕ ١٨
69:18
That Day, you will be exhibited [for judgement]; no secret of yours will remain hidden.
فَاَمَّا مَنۡ اُوۡتِىَ كِتٰبَهٗ بِيَمِيۡنِهٖ فَيَقُوۡلُ هَآؤُمُ اقۡرَءُوۡا كِتٰبِيَهۡ ۚ ١٩
69:19
So as for he who is given his record in his right hand, he will say, "Here, read my record!
اِنِّىۡ ظَنَنۡتُ اَنِّىۡ مُلٰقٍ حِسَابِيَهۡ ۚ ٢٠
69:20
Indeed, I was certain that I would meet my account."
فَهُوَ فِىۡ عِيۡشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ ۙ ٢١
69:21
So he will be in an approving life -
فِىۡ جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ ۙ ٢٢
69:22
In an elevated garden,
قُطُوۡفُهَا دَانِيَةٌ ؕ ٢٣
69:23
Whose [fruit] clusters are near.
كُلُوۡا وَاشۡرَبُوۡا هَنِيۡٓـًٔۢا بِمَاۤ اَسۡلَفۡتُمۡ فِىۡ الۡاَيَّامِ الۡخَالِيَةِ ؕ ٢٤
69:24
[They will be told], "Eat and drink happily for what you put forth in the past days."
وَاَمَّا مَنۡ اُوۡتِىَ كِتٰبَهٗ بِشِمَالِهٖ فَيَقُوۡلُ يٰلَيۡتَنِىۡ لَمۡ اُوۡتَ كِتٰبِيَهۡ ۚ ٢٥
69:25
But as for he who is given his record in his left hand, he will say, "Oh, I wish I had not been given my record
وَلَمۡ اَدۡرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهۡ ۚ ٢٦
69:26
And had not known what is my account.
يٰلَيۡتَهَا كَانَتِ الۡقَاضِيَةَ ۚ ٢٧
69:27
Oh, would that the first [death] had been the decisive one.
مَاۤ اَغۡنٰى عَنِّىۡ مَالِيَهۡ ۚ ٢٨
69:28
My wealth has not availed me.
هَلَكَ عَنِّىۡ سُلۡطٰنِيَهۡ ۚ ٢٩
69:29
Gone from me is my authority."
خُذُوۡهُ فَغُلُّوۡهُ ۙ ٣٠
69:30
[Allah will say], "Seize him and shackle him.
ثُمَّ الۡجَحِيۡمَ صَلُّوۡهُ ۙ ٣١
69:31
Then into the Hellfire put him to burn.
ثُمَّ فِىۡ سِلۡسِلَةٍ ذَرۡعُهَا سَبۡعُوۡنَ ذِرَاعًا فَاسۡلُكُوۡهُ ؕ ٣٢
69:32
Then into a chain whose length is seventy cubits insert him."
اِنَّهٗ كَانَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ الۡعَظِيۡمِ ۙ ٣٣
69:33
Indeed, he used not to believe in Allah, the Most Great,
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلٰى طَعَامِ الۡمِسۡكِيۡنِ ؕ ٣٤
69:34
Nor did he encourage the feeding of the poor.
فَلَيۡسَ لَهٗ الۡيَوۡمَ هٰهُنَا حَمِيۡمٌ ۙ ٣٥
69:35
So there is not for him here this Day any devoted friend
وَّلَا طَعَامٌ اِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِيۡنٍ ۙ ٣٦
69:36
Nor any food except from the discharge of wounds;
لَّا يَاۡكُلُهٗۤ اِلَّا الۡخٰطِـُٔوۡنَ ٪ ٣٧
69:37
None will eat it except the sinners.
فَلَاۤ اُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَ ۙ ٣٨
69:38
So I swear by what you see
وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَ ۙ ٣٩
69:39
And what you do not see
اِنَّهٗ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُوۡلٍ كَرِيۡمٍ ۙ ٤٠
69:40
Indeed, the Qur'an is the saying of a noble Messenger.
وَّمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٍ ؕ قَلِيۡلًا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ ۙ ٤١
69:41
And it is not the word of a poet; little do you believe.
وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٍ ؕ قَلِيۡلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُوۡنَ ؕ ٤٢
69:42
Nor the word of a soothsayer; little do you remember.
تَنۡزِيۡلٌ مِّنۡ رَّبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَ ؕ ٤٣
69:43
[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ الۡاَقَاوِيۡلِ ۙ ٤٤
69:44
And if Muhammad had made up about Us some [false] sayings,
لَاَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِالۡيَمِيۡنِ ۙ ٤٥
69:45
We would have seized him by the right hand;
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ الۡوَتِيۡنَ ۙ ٤٦
69:46
Then We would have cut from him the aorta.
فَمَا مِنۡكُمۡ مِّنۡ اَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حٰجِزِيۡنَ ؕ ٤٧
69:47
And there is no one of you who could prevent [Us] from him.
وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَذۡكِرَةٌ لِّلۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ ؕ ٤٨
69:48
And indeed, the Qur'an is a reminder for the righteous.
وَاِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ اَنَّ مِنۡكُمۡ مُّكَذِّبِيۡنَ ؕ ٤٩
69:49
And indeed, We know that among you are deniers.
وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ ؕ ٥٠
69:50
And indeed, it is to the disbelievers a source of regret.
وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَقُّ الۡيَقِيۡنِ ؕ ٥١
69:51
And indeed, it is the truth of certainty.
فَسَبِّحۡ بِاسۡمِ رَبِّكَ الۡعَظِيۡمِ ٪ ٥٢
69:52
So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
