سورةالدخان {٤٤} 44. AD-DUKHAAN
حم {١} 1. Ha-Mim.
وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ {٢} 2. By the Book that makes things clear;-
إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُبَارَكَةٍ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنْذِرِينَ {٣} 3. We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ {٤} 4. In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom,
أَمْرًا مِنْ عِنْدِنَا ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ {٥} 5. By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
رَحْمَةً مِنْ رَبِّكَ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ {٦} 6. As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۖ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُوقِنِينَ {٧} 7. The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all between them, if ye (but) have an assured faith.
لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ {٨} 8. There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death,- The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.
بَلْ هُمْ فِي شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ {٩} 9. Yet they play about in doubt.
فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ {١٠} 10. Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
يَغْشَى النَّاسَ ۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ {١١} 11. Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ {١٢} 12. (They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ الذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُبِينٌ {١٣} 13. How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَجْنُونٌ {١٤} 14. Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"
إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا ۚ إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ {١٥} 15. We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).
يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَىٰ إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ {١٦} 16. One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!
وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ كَرِيمٌ {١٧} 17. We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,
أَنْ أَدُّوا إِلَيَّ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّي لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ {١٨} 18. Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;
وَأَنْ لَا تَعْلُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّي آتِيكُمْ بِسُلْطَانٍ مُبِينٍ {١٩} 19. "And be not arrogant as against Allah: for I come to you with authority manifest.
وَإِنِّي عُذْتُ بِرَبِّي وَرَبِّكُمْ أَنْ تَرْجُمُونِ {٢٠} 20. "For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.
وَإِنْ لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا لِي فَاعْتَزِلُونِ {٢١} 21. "If ye believe me not, at least keep yourselves away from me."
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ قَوْمٌ مُجْرِمُونَ {٢٢} 22. (But they were aggressive:) then he cried to his Lord: "These are indeed a people given to sin."
فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي لَيْلًا إِنَّكُمْ مُتَّبَعُونَ {٢٣} 23. (The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.
وَاتْرُكِ الْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا ۖ إِنَّهُمْ جُنْدٌ مُغْرَقُونَ {٢٤} 24. "And leave the sea as a furrow (divided): for they are a host (destined) to be drowned."
كَمْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ {٢٥} 25. How many were the gardens and springs they left behind,
وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ {٢٦} 26. And corn-fields and noble buildings,
وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا فِيهَا فَاكِهِينَ {٢٧} 27. And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!
كَذَٰلِكَ ۖ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا قَوْمًا آخَرِينَ {٢٨} 28. Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!
فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّمَاءُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنْظَرِينَ {٢٩} 29. And neither heaven nor earth shed a tear over them: nor were they given a respite (again).
وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ {٣٠} 30. We did deliver aforetime the Children of Israel from humiliating Punishment,
مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِنَ الْمُسْرِفِينَ {٣١} 31. Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he was arrogant (even) among inordinate transgressors.
وَلَقَدِ اخْتَرْنَاهُمْ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ {٣٢} 32. And We chose them aforetime above the nations, knowingly,
وَآتَيْنَاهُمْ مِنَ الْآيَاتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَاءٌ مُبِينٌ {٣٣} 33. And granted them Signs in which there was a manifest trial
إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَيَقُولُونَ {٣٤} 34. As to these (Quraish), they say forsooth:
إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا الْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنْشَرِينَ {٣٥} 35. "There is nothing beyond our first death, and we shall not be raised again.
فَأْتُوا بِآبَائِنَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ {٣٦} 36. "Then bring (back) our forefathers, if what ye say is true!"
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَاهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُجْرِمِينَ {٣٧} 37. What! Are they better than the people of Tubba and those who were before them? We destroyed them because they were guilty of sin.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِبِينَ {٣٨} 38. We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, merely in (idle) sport:
مَا خَلَقْنَاهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ {٣٩} 39. We created them not except for just ends: but most of them do not understand.
إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ مِيقَاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ {٤٠} 40. Verily the Day of sorting out is the time appointed for all of them,-
يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي مَوْلًى عَنْ مَوْلًى شَيْئًا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ {٤١} 41. The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,
إِلَّا مَنْ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ {٤٢} 42. Except such as receive Allah´s Mercy: for He is Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.
إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ الزَّقُّومِ {٤٣} 43. Verily the tree of Zaqqum
طَعَامُ الْأَثِيمِ {٤٤} 44. Will be the food of the Sinful,-
كَالْمُهْلِ يَغْلِي فِي الْبُطُونِ {٤٥} 45. Like molten brass; it will boil in their insides.
كَغَلْيِ الْحَمِيمِ {٤٦} 46. Like the boiling of scalding water.
خُذُوهُ فَاعْتِلُوهُ إِلَىٰ سَوَاءِ الْجَحِيمِ {٤٧} 47. (A voice will cry: "Seize ye him and drag him into the midst of the Blazing Fire!
ثُمَّ صُبُّوا فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْحَمِيمِ {٤٨} 48. "Then pour over his head the Penalty of Boiling Water,
ذُقْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْكَرِيمُ {٤٩} 49. "Taste thou (this)! Truly wast thou mighty, full of honour!
إِنَّ هَٰذَا مَا كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تَمْتَرُونَ {٥٠} 50. "Truly this is what ye used to doubt!"
إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي مَقَامٍ أَمِينٍ {٥١} 51. As to the Righteous (they will be) in a position of Security,
فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ {٥٢} 52. Among Gardens and Springs;
يَلْبَسُونَ مِنْ سُنْدُسٍ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍ مُتَقَابِلِينَ {٥٣} 53. Dressed in fine silk and in rich brocade, they will face each other;
كَذَٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجْنَاهُمْ بِحُورٍ عِينٍ {٥٤} 54. So; and We shall join them to fair women with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes.
يَدْعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَاكِهَةٍ آمِنِينَ {٥٥} 55. There can they call for every kind of fruit in peace and security;
لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا الْمَوْتَ إِلَّا الْمَوْتَةَ الْأُولَىٰ ۖ وَوَقَاهُمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِيمِ {٥٦} 56. Nor will they there taste Death, except the first death; and He will preserve them from the Penalty of the Blazing Fire,-
فَضْلًا مِنْ رَبِّكَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ {٥٧} 57. As a Bounty from thy Lord! that will be the supreme achievement!
فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرْنَاهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ {٥٨} 58. Verily, We have made this (Qur´an) easy, in thy tongue, in order that they may give heed.
فَارْتَقِبْ إِنَّهُمْ مُرْتَقِبُونَ {٥٩} 59. So wait thou and watch; for they (too) are waiting.
