هَلْ أَتَىٰ عَلَى الْإِنسَانِ حِينٌ مِّنَ الدَّهْرِ لَمْ يَكُن شَيْئًا مَّذْكُورًا (1)
Has there not been over man a period of time, when he was not a thing worth mentioning |
إِنَّا خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ أَمْشَاجٍ نَّبْتَلِيهِ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا (2)
Verily, We have created man from Nutfah Amshaj, in order to try him, so, We made him hearer and seer |
إِنَّا هَدَيْنَاهُ السَّبِيلَ إِمَّا شَاكِرًا وَإِمَّا كَفُورًا (3)
Verily, We guided him to the way, whether he be grateful or ungrateful |
إِنَّا أَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَافِرِينَ سَلَاسِلَ وَأَغْلَالًا وَسَعِيرًا (4)
Verily, We have prepared for the disbelievers iron chains, iron collars, and Sa`ir |
إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ يَشْرَبُونَ مِن كَأْسٍ كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا كَافُورًا (5)
Verily, the Abrar (righteous believers) shall drink of a cup mixed with Kafur |
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا عِبَادُ اللَّهِ يُفَجِّرُونَهَا تَفْجِيرًا (6)
A spring wherefrom the servants of Allah will drink, causing it to gush forth abundantly |
يُوفُونَ بِالنَّذْرِ وَيَخَافُونَ يَوْمًا كَانَ شَرُّهُ مُسْتَطِيرًا (7)
They fulfill (their) vows, and they fear a Day whose evil will be wide-spreading |
وَيُطْعِمُونَ الطَّعَامَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِ مِسْكِينًا وَيَتِيمًا وَأَسِيرًا (8)
And they give food, inspite of their love for it, to the poor, the orphan and the captive |
إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ لَا نُرِيدُ مِنكُمْ جَزَاءً وَلَا شُكُورًا (9)
(Saying): "We feed you seeking Allah's Face only. We wish for no reward, nor thanks from you |
إِنَّا نَخَافُ مِن رَّبِّنَا يَوْمًا عَبُوسًا قَمْطَرِيرًا (10)
Verily, We fear from our Lord a Day that is `Abus and Qamtarir |
فَوَقَاهُمُ اللَّهُ شَرَّ ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمِ وَلَقَّاهُمْ نَضْرَةً وَسُرُورًا (11)
So, Allah saved them from the evil of that Day, and gave them Nadrah (a light of beauty) and joy |
وَجَزَاهُم بِمَا صَبَرُوا جَنَّةً وَحَرِيرًا (12)
And their recompense shall be Paradise, and silken garments, because they were patient |
مُّتَّكِئِينَ فِيهَا عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ ۖ لَا يَرَوْنَ فِيهَا شَمْسًا وَلَا زَمْهَرِيرًا (13)
Reclining therein on raised couches, they will see there neither the excessive heat, nor the excessive cold |
وَدَانِيَةً عَلَيْهِمْ ظِلَالُهَا وَذُلِّلَتْ قُطُوفُهَا تَذْلِيلًا (14)
And the shade thereof is close upon them, and the bunches of fruit thereof will hang low within their reach |
وَيُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِآنِيَةٍ مِّن فِضَّةٍ وَأَكْوَابٍ كَانَتْ قَوَارِيرَا (15)
And among them will be passed round vessels of silver and cups of crystal |
قَوَارِيرَ مِن فِضَّةٍ قَدَّرُوهَا تَقْدِيرًا (16)
(Qawarir) Crystal-clear, made of silver. They will determine the measure thereof |
وَيُسْقَوْنَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا زَنجَبِيلًا (17)
And they will be given to drink there of a cup (of wine) mixed with Zanjabil (ginger) |
عَيْنًا فِيهَا تُسَمَّىٰ سَلْسَبِيلًا (18)
A spring there, called Salsabil |
۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَانٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ حَسِبْتَهُمْ لُؤْلُؤًا مَّنثُورًا (19)
And round about them will (serve) boys of everlasting youth. If you see them, you would think them scattered pearls |
وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ثَمَّ رَأَيْتَ نَعِيمًا وَمُلْكًا كَبِيرًا (20)
And when you look there (in Paradise), you will see a delight (that cannot be imagined), and a great dominion |
عَالِيَهُمْ ثِيَابُ سُندُسٍ خُضْرٌ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٌ ۖ وَحُلُّوا أَسَاوِرَ مِن فِضَّةٍ وَسَقَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ شَرَابًا طَهُورًا (21)
Their garments will be of fine green silk, and Istabraq. They will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give them a purifying drink |

Verily, it is We Who have sent down the Qur'an to you by stages |
فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تُطِعْ مِنْهُمْ آثِمًا أَوْ كَفُورًا (24)
Therefore be patient with constancy to the command of your Lord, and obey neither a sinner nor a disbeliever among them |
وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا (25)
And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon |
وَمِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَاسْجُدْ لَهُ وَسَبِّحْهُ لَيْلًا طَوِيلًا (26)
And during the night, prostrate yourself to Him, and glorify Him a long night through |
إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ يُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ وَيَذَرُونَ وَرَاءَهُمْ يَوْمًا ثَقِيلًا (27)
Verily, these love the present life of this world, and put behind them a heavy Day |
نَّحْنُ خَلَقْنَاهُمْ وَشَدَدْنَا أَسْرَهُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا شِئْنَا بَدَّلْنَا أَمْثَالَهُمْ تَبْدِيلًا (28)
It is We Who created them, and We have made them of strong build. And when We will, We can replace them with others like them with a complete replacement |
إِنَّ هَٰذِهِ تَذْكِرَةٌ ۖ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ سَبِيلًا (29)
Verily, this is an admonition, so whosoever wills, let him take a path to his Lord |
وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا (30)
But you cannot will, unless Allah wills. Verily, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise |
يُدْخِلُ مَن يَشَاءُ فِي رَحْمَتِهِ ۚ وَالظَّالِمِينَ أَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا (31)
He will admit to His mercy whom He wills and as for the wrongdoers -- He has prepared a painful torment |
