Surah Al-Qiyamah ( The Resurrection ) - Aya count 40
لَا أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
( 1 ) I swear by the Day of Resurrection
وَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالنَّفْسِ اللَّوَّامَةِ
( 2 ) And I swear by the reproaching soul [to the certainty of resurrection].
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ
( 3 ) Does man think that We will not assemble his bones?
بَلَىٰ قَادِرِينَ عَلَىٰ أَن نُّسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ
( 4 ) Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips.
بَلْ يُرِيدُ الْإِنسَانُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُ
( 5 ) But man desires to continue in sin.
يَسْأَلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ
( 6 ) He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection?"
فَإِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ
( 7 ) So when vision is dazzled
وَخَسَفَ الْقَمَرُ
( 8 ) And the moon darkens
وَجُمِعَ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ
( 9 ) And the sun and the moon are joined,
يَقُولُ الْإِنسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ
( 10 ) Man will say on that Day, "Where is the [place of] escape?"
كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ
( 11 ) No! There is no refuge.
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ
( 12 ) To your Lord, that Day, is the [place of] permanence.
يُنَبَّأُ الْإِنسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ
( 13 ) Man will be informed that Day of what he sent ahead and kept back.
بَلِ الْإِنسَانُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ بَصِيرَةٌ
( 14 ) Rather, man, against himself, will be a witness,
وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُ
( 15 ) Even if he presents his excuses.
لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ
( 16 ) Move not your tongue with it, [O Muhammad], to hasten with recitation of the Qur'an.
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ
( 17 ) Indeed, upon Us is its collection [in your heart] and [to make possible] its recitation.
فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ
( 18 ) So when We have recited it [through Gabriel], then follow its recitation.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ
( 19 ) Then upon Us is its clarification [to you].
كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ
( 20 ) No! But you love the immediate
وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
( 21 ) And leave the Hereafter.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاضِرَةٌ
( 22 ) [Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant,
إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ
( 23 ) Looking at their Lord.
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ
( 24 ) And [some] faces, that Day, will be contorted,
تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ
( 25 ) Expecting that there will be done to them [something] backbreaking.
كَلَّا إِذَا بَلَغَتِ التَّرَاقِيَ
( 26 ) No! When the soul has reached the collar bones
وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍ
( 27 ) And it is said, "Who will cure [him]?"
وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ
( 28 ) And the dying one is certain that it is the [time of] separation
وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ
( 29 ) And the leg is wound about the leg,
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ
( 30 ) To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession.
فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ
( 31 ) And the disbeliever had not believed, nor had he prayed.
وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
( 32 ) But [instead], he denied and turned away.
ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّىٰ
( 33 ) And then he went to his people, swaggering [in pride].
أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ
( 34 ) Woe to you, and woe!
ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ
( 35 ) Then woe to you, and woe!
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى
( 36 ) Does man think that he will be left neglected?
أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِّن مَّنِيٍّ يُمْنَىٰ
( 37 ) Had he not been a sperm from semen emitted?
ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
( 38 ) Then he was a clinging clot, and [Allah] created [his form] and proportioned [him]
فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
( 39 ) And made of him two mates, the male and the female.
أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَىٰ أَن يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَىٰ
( 40 ) Is not that [Creator] Able to give life to the dead?
