يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O you ٱلْمُدَّثِّرُ who covers himself

قُمْ Stand up فَأَنذِرْ and warn

وَرَبَّكَ And your Lord فَكَبِّرْ magnify

وَثِيَابَكَ And your clothing فَطَهِّرْ purify

وَٱلرُّجْزَ And uncleanliness فَٱهْجُرْ avoid

وَلَا And (do) not تَمْنُن confer favor تَسْتَكْثِرُ (to) acquire more

وَلِرَبِّكَ And for your Lord فَٱصْبِرْ be patient

فَإِذَا Then when نُقِرَ is blown فِى in ٱلنَّاقُورِ the trumpet

فَذَٰلِكَ That يَوْمَئِذٍ Day يَوْمٌ (will be) a Day عَسِيرٌ difficult

عَلَى For ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ the disbelievers غَيْرُ not يَسِيرٍ easy

ذَرْنِى Leave Me وَمَنْ and whom خَلَقْتُ I created وَحِيدًا alone

وَجَعَلْتُ And I granted لَهُۥ to him مَالًا wealth مَّمْدُودًا extensive

وَبَنِينَ And children شُهُودًا present

وَمَهَّدتُّ And I spread لَهُۥ for him تَمْهِيدًا ease

ثُمَّ Then يَطْمَعُ he desires أَنْ that أَزِيدَ I (should) add more

كَلَّآ By no means ۖ   إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he كَانَ has been لِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا to Our Verses عَنِيدًا stubborn

سَأُرْهِقُهُۥ Soon I will cover Him صَعُودًا (with) a laborious punishment

إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he فَكَّرَ thought وَقَدَّرَ and plotted

فَقُتِلَ So may he be destroyed كَيْفَ how قَدَّرَ he plotted

ثُمَّ Then قُتِلَ may he be destroyed كَيْفَ how قَدَّرَ he plotted

ثُمَّ Then نَظَرَ he looked

ثُمَّ Then عَبَسَ he frowned وَبَسَرَ and scowled

ثُمَّ Then أَدْبَرَ he turned back وَٱسْتَكْبَرَ and was proud

فَقَالَ Then he said إِنْ Not هَـٰذَآ (is) this إِلَّا but سِحْرٌ magic يُؤْثَرُ imitated

إِنْ Not هَـٰذَآ (is) this إِلَّا but قَوْلُ (the) word ٱلْبَشَرِ (of) a human being

سَأُصْلِيهِ Soon I will drive him سَقَرَ (into) Hell

وَمَآ And what أَدْرَىٰكَ can make you know مَا what سَقَرُ (is) Hell

لَا Not تُبْقِى it lets remain وَلَا and not تَذَرُ it leaves

لَوَّاحَةٌ Scorching لِّلْبَشَرِ the human (skin)

عَلَيْهَا Over it تِسْعَةَ (are) nine عَشَرَ teen

وَمَا And not جَعَلْنَآ We have made أَصْحَـٰبَ keepers ٱلنَّارِ (of) the Fire إِلَّا except مَلَـٰٓئِكَةً Angels ۙ   وَمَا And not جَعَلْنَا We have made عِدَّتَهُمْ their number إِلَّا except فِتْنَةً (as) a trial لِّلَّذِينَ for those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieve لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ that may be certain ٱلَّذِينَ those who أُوتُوا۟ were given ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Scripture وَيَزْدَادَ and may increase ٱلَّذِينَ those who ءَامَنُوٓا۟ believe إِيمَـٰنًا (in) faith ۙ   وَلَا and not يَرْتَابَ may doubt ٱلَّذِينَ those who أُوتُوا۟ were given ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Scripture وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ and the believers ۙ   وَلِيَقُولَ and that may say ٱلَّذِينَ those فِى in قُلُوبِهِم their hearts مَّرَضٌ (is) a disease وَٱلْكَـٰفِرُونَ and the disbelievers مَاذَآ What أَرَادَ (does) intend ٱللَّهُ Allah بِهَـٰذَا by this مَثَلًا example ۚ   كَذَٰلِكَ Thus يُضِلُّ does let go astray ٱللَّهُ Allah مَن whom يَشَآءُ He wills وَيَهْدِى and guides مَن whom يَشَآءُ He wills ۚ   وَمَا And none يَعْلَمُ knows جُنُودَ (the) hosts رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord إِلَّا except هُوَ Him ۚ   وَمَا And not هِىَ it إِلَّا (is) but ذِكْرَىٰ a reminder لِلْبَشَرِ to (the) human beings

كَلَّا Nay وَٱلْقَمَرِ By the moon

وَٱلَّيْلِ And the night إِذْ when أَدْبَرَ it departs

وَٱلصُّبْحِ And the morning إِذَآ when أَسْفَرَ it brightens

إِنَّهَا Indeed, it لَإِحْدَى (is) surely one ٱلْكُبَرِ (of) the greatest

نَذِيرًا A warning لِّلْبَشَرِ to (the) human being

لِمَن To whoever شَآءَ wills مِنكُمْ among you أَن to يَتَقَدَّمَ proceed أَوْ or يَتَأَخَّرَ stay behind

كُلُّ Every نَفْسٍۭ soul بِمَا for what كَسَبَتْ it has earned رَهِينَةٌ (is) pledged

إِلَّآ Except أَصْحَـٰبَ (the) companions ٱلْيَمِينِ (of) the right

فِى In جَنَّـٰتٍ Gardens يَتَسَآءَلُونَ asking each other

عَنِ About ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ the criminals

مَا What سَلَكَكُمْ led you فِى into سَقَرَ Hell

قَالُوا۟ They will say لَمْ Not نَكُ we were مِنَ of ٱلْمُصَلِّينَ those who prayed

وَلَمْ And not نَكُ we used to نُطْعِمُ feed ٱلْمِسْكِينَ the poor

وَكُنَّا And we used to نَخُوضُ indulge in vain talk مَعَ with ٱلْخَآئِضِينَ the vain talkers

وَكُنَّا And we used to نُكَذِّبُ deny بِيَوْمِ (the) Day ٱلدِّينِ (of) the Judgment

حَتَّىٰٓ Until أَتَىٰنَا came to us ٱلْيَقِينُ the certainty

فَمَا Then not تَنفَعُهُمْ will benefit them شَفَـٰعَةُ intercession ٱلشَّـٰفِعِينَ (of) the intercessors

فَمَا Then what لَهُمْ (is) for them عَنِ (that) from ٱلتَّذْكِرَةِ the Reminder مُعْرِضِينَ they (are) turning away

كَأَنَّهُمْ As if they (were) حُمُرٌ donkeys مُّسْتَنفِرَةٌ frightened

فَرَّتْ Fleeing مِن from قَسْوَرَةٍۭ a lion

بَلْ Nay يُرِيدُ Desires كُلُّ every ٱمْرِئٍ person مِّنْهُمْ of them أَن that يُؤْتَىٰ he may be given صُحُفًا pages مُّنَشَّرَةً spread out

كَلَّا Nay ۖ   بَل But لَّا not يَخَافُونَ they fear ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ the Hereafter

كَلَّآ Nay إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, it تَذْكِرَةٌ (is) a Reminder

فَمَن So whoever شَآءَ wills ذَكَرَهُۥ (may) pay heed to it

وَمَا And not يَذْكُرُونَ will pay heed إِلَّآ except أَن that يَشَآءَ wills ٱللَّهُ Allah ۚ   هُوَ He أَهْلُ (is) worthy ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ to be feared وَأَهْلُ and worthy ٱلْمَغْفِرَةِ to forgive
