☪️ Al-Qamar (سُورَةُ القَمَرِ)

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ ٱقۡتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلۡقَمَرُ

The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two].

وَإِن یَرَوۡا۟ ءَایَةࣰ یُعۡرِضُوا۟ وَیَقُولُوا۟ سِحۡرࣱ مُّسۡتَمِرࣱّ

And if they see a miracle, they turn away and say, "Passing magic."

وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوۤا۟ أَهۡوَاۤءَهُمۡۚ وَكُلُّ أَمۡرࣲ مُّسۡتَقِرࣱّ

And they denied and followed their inclinations. But for every matter is a [time of] settlement.

وَلَقَدۡ جَاۤءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَنۢبَاۤءِ مَا فِیهِ مُزۡدَجَرٌ

And there has already come to them of information that in which there is deterrence -

حِكۡمَةُۢ بَـٰلِغَةࣱۖ فَمَا تُغۡنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ

Extensive wisdom - but warning does not avail [them].

فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡۘ یَوۡمَ یَدۡعُ ٱلدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَیۡءࣲ نُّكُرٍ

So leave them, [O Muhammad]. The Day the Caller calls to something forbidding,

خُشَّعًا أَبۡصَـٰرُهُمۡ یَخۡرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡأَجۡدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمۡ جَرَادࣱ مُّنتَشِرࣱ

Their eyes humbled, they will emerge from the graves as if they were locusts spreading,

مُّهۡطِعِینَ إِلَى ٱلدَّاعِۖ یَقُولُ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرُونَ هَـٰذَا یَوۡمٌ عَسِرࣱ

Racing ahead toward the Caller. The disbelievers will say, "This is a difficult Day."

۞ كَذَّبَتۡ قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمُ نُوحࣲ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبۡدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجۡنُونࣱ وَٱزۡدُجِرَ

The people of Noah denied before them, and they denied Our servant and said, "A madman," and he was repelled.

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥۤ أَنِّی مَغۡلُوبࣱ فَٱنتَصِرۡ

So he invoked his Lord, "Indeed, I am overpowered, so help."

فَفَتَحۡنَاۤ أَبۡوَ ٰ⁠بَ ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ بِمَاۤءࣲ مُّنۡهَمِرࣲ

Then We opened the gates of the heaven with rain pouring down

وَفَجَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ عُیُونࣰا فَٱلۡتَقَى ٱلۡمَاۤءُ عَلَىٰۤ أَمۡرࣲ قَدۡ قُدِرَ

And caused the earth to burst with springs, and the waters met for a matter already predestined.

وَحَمَلۡنَـٰهُ عَلَىٰ ذَاتِ أَلۡوَ ٰ⁠حࣲ وَدُسُرࣲ

And We carried him on a [construction of] planks and nails,

تَجۡرِی بِأَعۡیُنِنَا جَزَاۤءࣰ لِّمَن كَانَ كُفِرَ

Sailing under Our observation as reward for he who had been denied.

وَلَقَد تَّرَكۡنَـٰهَاۤ ءَایَةࣰ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We left it as a sign, so is there any who will remember?

فَكَیۡفَ كَانَ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

وَلَقَدۡ یَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

كَذَّبَتۡ عَادࣱ فَكَیۡفَ كَانَ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

'Aad denied; and how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

إِنَّاۤ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَیۡهِمۡ رِیحࣰا صَرۡصَرࣰا فِی یَوۡمِ نَحۡسࣲ مُّسۡتَمِرࣲّ

Indeed, We sent upon them a screaming wind on a day of continuous misfortune,

تَنزِعُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمۡ أَعۡجَازُ نَخۡلࣲ مُّنقَعِرࣲ

Extracting the people as if they were trunks of palm trees uprooted.

فَكَیۡفَ كَانَ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

وَلَقَدۡ یَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

Thamud denied the warning

فَقَالُوۤا۟ أَبَشَرࣰا مِّنَّا وَ ٰ⁠حِدࣰا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥۤ إِنَّاۤ إِذࣰا لَّفِی ضَلَـٰلࣲ وَسُعُرٍ

And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness.

أَءُلۡقِیَ ٱلذِّكۡرُ عَلَیۡهِ مِنۢ بَیۡنِنَا بَلۡ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرࣱ

Has the message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar."

سَیَعۡلَمُونَ غَدࣰا مَّنِ ٱلۡكَذَّابُ ٱلۡأَشِرُ

They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.

إِنَّا مُرۡسِلُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتۡنَةࣰ لَّهُمۡ فَٱرۡتَقِبۡهُمۡ وَٱصۡطَبِرۡ

Indeed, We are sending the she-camel as trial for them, so watch them and be patient.

وَنَبِّئۡهُمۡ أَنَّ ٱلۡمَاۤءَ قِسۡمَةُۢ بَیۡنَهُمۡۖ كُلُّ شِرۡبࣲ مُّحۡتَضَرࣱ

And inform them that the water is shared between them, each [day of] drink attended [by turn].

فَنَادَوۡا۟ صَاحِبَهُمۡ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ

But they called their companion, and he dared and hamstrung [her].

فَكَیۡفَ كَانَ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

إِنَّاۤ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَیۡهِمۡ صَیۡحَةࣰ وَ ٰ⁠حِدَةࣰ فَكَانُوا۟ كَهَشِیمِ ٱلۡمُحۡتَظِرِ

Indeed, We sent upon them one blast from the sky, and they became like the dry twig fragments of an [animal] pen.

وَلَقَدۡ یَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ لُوطِۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

The people of Lot denied the warning.

إِنَّاۤ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَیۡهِمۡ حَاصِبًا إِلَّاۤ ءَالَ لُوطࣲۖ نَّجَّیۡنَـٰهُم بِسَحَرࣲ

Indeed, We sent upon them a storm of stones, except the family of Lot - We saved them before dawn

نِّعۡمَةࣰ مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۚ كَذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ نَجۡزِی مَن شَكَرَ

As favor from us. Thus do We reward he who is grateful.

وَلَقَدۡ أَنذَرَهُم بَطۡشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوۡا۟ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warning.

وَلَقَدۡ رَ ٰ⁠وَدُوهُ عَن ضَیۡفِهِۦ فَطَمَسۡنَاۤ أَعۡیُنَهُمۡ فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

And they had demanded from him his guests, but We obliterated their eyes, [saying], "Taste My punishment and warning."

وَلَقَدۡ صَبَّحَهُم بُكۡرَةً عَذَابࣱ مُّسۡتَقِرࣱّ

And there came upon them by morning an abiding punishment.

فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِی وَنُذُرِ

So taste My punishment and warning.

وَلَقَدۡ یَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

وَلَقَدۡ جَاۤءَ ءَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ ٱلنُّذُرُ

And there certainly came to the people of Pharaoh warning.

كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔایَـٰتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذۡنَـٰهُمۡ أَخۡذَ عَزِیزࣲ مُّقۡتَدِرٍ

They denied Our signs, all of them, so We seized them with a seizure of one Exalted in Might and Perfect in Ability.

أَكُفَّارُكُمۡ خَیۡرࣱ مِّنۡ أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكُمۡ أَمۡ لَكُم بَرَاۤءَةࣱ فِی ٱلزُّبُرِ

Are your disbelievers better than those [former ones], or have you immunity in the scripture?

أَمۡ یَقُولُونَ نَحۡنُ جَمِیعࣱ مُّنتَصِرࣱ

Or do they say, "We are an assembly supporting [each other]"?

سَیُهۡزَمُ ٱلۡجَمۡعُ وَیُوَلُّونَ ٱلدُّبُرَ

[Their] assembly will be defeated, and they will turn their backs [in retreat].

بَلِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ مَوۡعِدُهُمۡ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ أَدۡهَىٰ وَأَمَرُّ

But the Hour is their appointment [for due punishment], and the Hour is more disastrous and more bitter.

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِینَ فِی ضَلَـٰلࣲ وَسُعُرࣲ

Indeed, the criminals are in error and madness.

یَوۡمَ یُسۡحَبُونَ فِی ٱلنَّارِ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمۡ ذُوقُوا۟ مَسَّ سَقَرَ

The Day they are dragged into the Fire on their faces [it will be said], "Taste the touch of Saqar."

إِنَّا كُلَّ شَیۡءٍ خَلَقۡنَـٰهُ بِقَدَرࣲ

Indeed, all things We created with predestination.

وَمَاۤ أَمۡرُنَاۤ إِلَّا وَ ٰ⁠حِدَةࣱ كَلَمۡحِۭ بِٱلۡبَصَرِ

And Our command is but one, like a glance of the eye.

وَلَقَدۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَاۤ أَشۡیَاعَكُمۡ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرࣲ

And We have already destroyed your kinds, so is there any who will remember?

وَكُلُّ شَیۡءࣲ فَعَلُوهُ فِی ٱلزُّبُرِ

And everything they did is in written records.

وَكُلُّ صَغِیرࣲ وَكَبِیرࣲ مُّسۡتَطَرٌ

And every small and great [thing] is inscribed.

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ فِی جَنَّـٰتࣲ وَنَهَرࣲ

Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and rivers,

فِی مَقۡعَدِ صِدۡقٍ عِندَ مَلِیكࣲ مُّقۡتَدِرِۭ

In a seat of honor near a Sovereign, Perfect in Ability.
