بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلذَّٰرِيَٰتِ ذَرۡوࣰ ا﴿1﴾
51:1By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing
فَٱلۡحَٰمِلَٰتِ وِقۡرࣰ ا﴿2﴾
51:2And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water]
فَٱلۡجَٰرِيَٰتِ يُسۡرࣰ ا﴿3﴾
51:3And those [ships] sailing with ease
فَٱلۡمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمۡرًا﴿4﴾
51:4And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقࣱ﴿5﴾
51:5Indeed, what you are promised is true
وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعࣱ﴿6﴾
51:6And indeed, the recompense is to occur
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلۡحُبُكِ﴿7﴾
51:7By the heaven containing pathways
إِنَّكُمۡ لَفِي قَوۡلࣲ مُّخۡتَلِفࣲ﴿8﴾
51:8Indeed, you are in differing speech
يُؤۡفَكُ عَنۡهُ مَنۡ أُفِكَ﴿9﴾
51:9Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded
قُتِلَ ٱلۡخَرَّٰصُونَ﴿10﴾
51:10Destroyed are the falsifiers
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ فِي غَمۡرَةࣲ سَاهُونَ﴿11﴾
51:11Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless
يَسۡـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ﴿12﴾
51:12They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense
يَوۡمَ هُمۡ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفۡتَنُونَ﴿13﴾
51:13[It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire
ذُوقُواْ فِتۡنَتَكُمۡ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ﴿14﴾
51:14[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient
إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّٰتࣲ وَعُيُونٍ﴿15﴾
51:15Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs
ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمۡ رَبُّهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَبۡلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحۡسِنِينَ﴿16﴾
51:16Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good
كَانُواْ قَلِيلࣰ ا مِّنَ ٱلَّيۡلِ مَا يَهۡجَعُونَ﴿17﴾
51:17They used to sleep but little of the night
وَبِٱلۡأَسۡحَارِ هُمۡ يَسۡتَغۡفِرُونَ﴿18﴾
51:18And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness
وَفِيٓ أَمۡوَٰلِهِمۡ حَقࣱّ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلۡمَحۡرُومِ﴿19﴾
51:19And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived
وَفِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ءَايَٰتࣱ لِّلۡمُوقِنِينَ﴿20﴾
51:20And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]
وَفِيٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡۚ أَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُونَ﴿21﴾
51:21And in yourselves. Then will you not see
وَفِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزۡقُكُمۡ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ﴿22﴾
51:22And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised
فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقࣱّ مِّثۡلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمۡ تَنطِقُونَ﴿23﴾
51:23Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking
هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيۡفِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ ٱلۡمُكۡرَمِينَ﴿24﴾
51:24Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham
إِذۡ دَخَلُواْ عَلَيۡهِ فَقَالُواْ سَلَٰمࣰ اۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمࣱ قَوۡمࣱ مُّنكَرُونَ﴿25﴾
51:25When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace, [you are] a people unknown
فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجۡلࣲ سَمِينࣲ﴿26﴾
51:26Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf
فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيۡهِمۡ قَالَ أَلَا تَأۡكُلُونَ﴿27﴾
51:27And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat
فَأَوۡجَسَ مِنۡهُمۡ خِيفَةࣰۖ قَالُواْ لَا تَخَفۡۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمࣲ﴿28﴾
51:28And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy
فَأَقۡبَلَتِ ٱمۡرَأَتُهُۥ فِي صَرَّةࣲ فَصَكَّتۡ وَجۡهَهَا وَقَالَتۡ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمࣱ﴿29﴾
51:29And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman
قَالُواْ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ﴿30﴾
51:30They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing
۞قَالَ فَمَا خَطۡبُكُمۡ أَيُّهَا ٱلۡمُرۡسَلُونَ﴿31﴾
51:31[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers
قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ أُرۡسِلۡنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوۡمࣲ مُّجۡرِمِينَ﴿32﴾
51:32They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals
لِنُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حِجَارَةࣰ مِّن طِينࣲ﴿33﴾
51:33To send down upon them stones of clay
مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ﴿34﴾
51:34Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors
فَأَخۡرَجۡنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ﴿35﴾
51:35So We brought out whoever was in the cities of the believers
فَمَا وَجَدۡنَا فِيهَا غَيۡرَ بَيۡتࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ﴿36﴾
51:36And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims
وَتَرَكۡنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةࣰ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَلِيمَ﴿37﴾
51:37And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment
وَفِي مُوسَىٰٓ إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ بِسُلۡطَٰنࣲ مُّبِينࣲ﴿38﴾
51:38And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority
فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكۡنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوۡ مَجۡنُونࣱ﴿39﴾
51:39But he turned away with his supporters and said," A magician or a madman
فَأَخَذۡنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمࣱ﴿40﴾
51:40So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy
وَفِي عَادٍ إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلۡعَقِيمَ﴿41﴾
51:41And in 'Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind
مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَيۡءٍ أَتَتۡ عَلَيۡهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتۡهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ﴿42﴾
51:42It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins
وَفِي ثَمُودَ إِذۡ قِيلَ لَهُمۡ تَمَتَّعُواْ حَتَّىٰ حِينࣲ﴿43﴾
51:43And in Thamud, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time
فَعَتَوۡاْ عَنۡ أَمۡرِ رَبِّهِمۡ فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمۡ يَنظُرُونَ﴿44﴾
51:44But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on
فَمَا ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ مِن قِيَامࣲ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنتَصِرِينَ﴿45﴾
51:45And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves
وَقَوۡمَ نُوحࣲ مِّن قَبۡلُۖ إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَوۡمࣰ ا فَٰسِقِينَ﴿46﴾
51:46And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient
وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيۡنَٰهَا بِأَيۡيْدࣲ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ﴿47﴾
51:47And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander
وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ فَرَشۡنَٰهَا فَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡمَٰهِدُونَ﴿48﴾
51:48And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer
وَمِن كُلِّ شَيۡءٍ خَلَقۡنَا زَوۡجَيۡنِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَذَكَّرُونَ﴿49﴾
51:49And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember
فَفِرُّوٓاْ إِلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنۡهُ نَذِيرࣱ مُّبِينࣱ﴿50﴾
51:50So flee to Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner
وَلَا تَجۡعَلُواْ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَۖ إِنِّي لَكُم مِّنۡهُ نَذِيرࣱ مُّبِينࣱ﴿51﴾
51:51And do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner
كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُواْ سَاحِرٌ أَوۡ مَجۡنُونٌ﴿52﴾
51:52Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman
أَتَوَاصَوۡاْ بِهِۦۚ بَلۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ طَاغُونَ﴿53﴾
51:53Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people
فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومࣲ﴿54﴾
51:54So leave them, [O Muhammad], for you are not to be blamed
وَذَكِّرۡ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ﴿55﴾
51:55And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers
وَمَا خَلَقۡتُ ٱلۡجِنَّ وَٱلۡإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعۡبُدُونِ﴿56﴾
51:56And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me
مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنۡهُم مِّن رِّزۡقࣲ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطۡعِمُونِ﴿57﴾
51:57I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلۡقُوَّةِ ٱلۡمَتِينُ﴿58﴾
51:58Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength
فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ ذَنُوبࣰ ا مِّثۡلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصۡحَٰبِهِمۡ فَلَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُونِ﴿59﴾
51:59And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their predecessors, so let them not impatiently urge Me
فَوَيۡلࣱ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن يَوۡمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ﴿60﴾
51:60And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised
