مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ ۝١

THE HOUR HAS come and split is the moon.

وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ ءَايَةًۭ يُعْرِضُوا۟ وَيَقُولُوا۟ سِحْرٌۭ مُّسْتَمِرٌّۭ ۝٢

But if they see a sign they turn away, and say: "This is the same old lie continuing,"

وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍۢ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ ۝۳

And deny, and follow their own vain desires; but every matter is determined at its time.

وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَنۢبَآءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ ۝٤

Messages deterring them from evil had come to them,

حِكْمَةٌۢ بَٰلِغَةٌۭ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ ۝٥

Containing consummate wisdom; yet warnings were of no avail.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ ٱلدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَىْءٍۢ نُّكُرٍ ۝٦

So turn away from them. When on the Day the crier calls to the painful business,

خُشَّعًا أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌۭ مُّنتَشِرٌۭ ۝۷

They will come out of the graves with downcast eyes like an expanding swarm of locusts.

مُّهْطِعِينَ إِلَى ٱلدَّاعِ ۖ يَقُولُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌۭ ۝۸

They will hasten forward to the caller, gazes fixed. And the unbelievers will say: "This is the day of untold woe."

۞ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍۢ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجْنُونٌۭ وَٱزْدُجِرَ ۝۹

The people of Noah had denied before them, and had called Our votary a liar, and said: "He is possessed," and repulsed him.

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّى مَغْلُوبٌۭ فَٱنتَصِرْ ۝١۰

So he prayed to his Lord: "I am helpless, deliver me."

فَفَتَحْنَآ أَبْوَٰبَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَآءٍۢ مُّنْهَمِرٍۢ ۝١١

And We opened up the flood gates of the sky with water pouring down in torrents,

وَفَجَّرْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ عُيُونًۭا فَٱلْتَقَى ٱلْمَآءُ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْرٍۢ قَدْ قُدِرَ ۝١٢

And We opened up the springs of the earth; and the waters met for a decreed end.

وَحَمَلْنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ ذَاتِ أَلْوَٰحٍۢ وَدُسُرٍۢ ۝١۳

But We bore him on a (vessel made) of planks and oakum,

تَجْرِى بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَآءًۭ لِّمَن كَانَ كُفِرَ ۝١٤

Which sailed right under Our eyes: A recompense for him who had been denied.

وَلَقَد تَّرَكْنَٰهَآ ءَايَةًۭ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝١٥

And We left it as a sign. Is there anyone who will be warned?

فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝١٦

How was then My punishment and My commination!

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝١۷

Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned?

كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌۭ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝١۸

The 'Ad had also disavowed. How was then My punishment and My commination!

إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًۭا صَرْصَرًۭا فِى يَوْمِ نَحْسٍۢ مُّسْتَمِرٍّۢ ۝١۹

We let loose against them a violent roaring wind on a day of ill omen, continuous,

تَنزِعُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍۢ مُّنقَعِرٍۢ ۝٢۰

Which snatched away men as though they were palm trees pulled out by the roots.

فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝٢١

How was then My punishment and My commination!

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝٢٢

Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will pay heed?

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ ۝٢۳

The Thamud rejected the warnings,

فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَبَشَرًۭا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدًۭا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذًۭا لَّفِى ضَلَٰلٍۢ وَسُعُرٍ ۝٢٤

And said: "Should we follow only one man among us? In that case we shall he in error and insane.

أَءُلْقِىَ ٱلذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنۢ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌۭ ۝٢٥

Was he the one of all of us to have been given the exposition? He is surely an impudent liar."

سَيَعْلَمُونَ غَدًۭا مَّنِ ٱلْكَذَّابُ ٱلْأَشِرُ ۝٢٦

"Tomorrow they will know who is the impudent liar!

إِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةًۭ لَّهُمْ فَٱرْتَقِبْهُمْ وَٱصْطَبِرْ ۝٢۷

We shall send the she-camel to try them. So watch them, and be constant.

وَنَبِّئْهُمْ أَنَّ ٱلْمَآءَ قِسْمَةٌۢ بَيْنَهُمْ ۖ كُلُّ شِرْبٍۢ مُّحْتَضَرٌۭ ۝٢۸

Tell them that the water is to be apportioned between them (and her); and every turn of drinking will be fixed (for each)."

فَنَادَوْا۟ صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ ۝٢۹

But they called their commander, who seized and hamstrung her.

فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝۳۰

How was then My punishment of which they had been warned?

إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ صَيْحَةًۭ وَٰحِدَةًۭ فَكَانُوا۟ كَهَشِيمِ ٱلْمُحْتَظِرِ ۝۳١

We sent a single blast against them, and they were reduced to husks of a decayed fence.

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝۳٢

Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned?

كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ ۝۳۳

The people of Lot rejected the warnings.

إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَاصِبًا إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍۢ ۖ نَّجَّيْنَٰهُم بِسَحَرٍۢ ۝۳٤

We sent a stone-hurtling storm against them, except the family of Lot whom We saved in the early hours of the morning

نِّعْمَةًۭ مِّنْ عِندِنَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى مَن شَكَرَ ۝۳٥

As a favour from Us. That is how We reward the grateful.

وَلَقَدْ أَنذَرَهُم بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْا۟ بِٱلنُّذُرِ ۝۳٦

He had warned them of Our might, but they passed over the warnings.

وَلَقَدْ رَٰوَدُوهُ عَن ضَيْفِهِۦ فَطَمَسْنَآ أَعْيُنَهُمْ فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝۳۷

They lusted after his guests, so We put out their eyes (and said): "Taste My punishment and My commination."

وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُم بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌۭ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ ۝۳۸

And early in the morning the decreed punishment came upon them.

فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ ۝۳۹

So now taste My punishment and My commination!

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝٤۰

Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned?

وَلَقَدْ جَآءَ ءَالَ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلنُّذُرُ ۝٤١

The warnings came to the people of Pharaoh.

كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذْنَٰهُمْ أَخْذَ عَزِيزٍۢ مُّقْتَدِرٍ ۝٤٢

They rejected each one of Our signs. So We seized them with the grip of one mighty and powerful.

أَكُفَّارُكُمْ خَيْرٌۭ مِّنْ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكُمْ أَمْ لَكُم بَرَآءَةٌۭ فِى ٱلزُّبُرِ ۝٤۳

Are the unbelievers among you any better than they? Or is there immunity for you in the Scriptures?

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ نَحْنُ جَمِيعٌۭ مُّنتَصِرٌۭ ۝٤٤

Or do they say: "We are a well-accoutred army?"

سَيُهْزَمُ ٱلْجَمْعُ وَيُوَلُّونَ ٱلدُّبُرَ ۝٤٥

The army will be routed and put to flight.

بَلِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ مَوْعِدُهُمْ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَىٰ وَأَمَرُّ ۝٤٦

Surely the Hour will be the moment of their promise, and that moment will be calamitous and distressing.

إِنَّ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍۢ وَسُعُرٍۢ ۝٤۷

Surely the sinners are misguided and insane.

يَوْمَ يُسْحَبُونَ فِى ٱلنَّارِ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمْ ذُوقُوا۟ مَسَّ سَقَرَ ۝٤۸

On that Day they will be dragged into the fire faces foremost, (and told:) "Taste the feel of Hell."

إِنَّا كُلَّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَٰهُ بِقَدَرٍۢ ۝٤۹

We have indeed created all things by measure;

وَمَآ أَمْرُنَآ إِلَّا وَٰحِدَةٌۭ كَلَمْحٍۭ بِٱلْبَصَرِ ۝٥۰

And Our command is but one (word) swift as the winking of an eye.

وَلَقَدْ أَهْلَكْنَآ أَشْيَاعَكُمْ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ ۝٥١

We have destroyed the likes of you in the past: So is there any one who will be warned?

وَكُلُّ شَىْءٍۢ فَعَلُوهُ فِى ٱلزُّبُرِ ۝٥٢

All things they do are (recorded) in the books;

وَكُلُّ صَغِيرٍۢ وَكَبِيرٍۢ مُّسْتَطَرٌ ۝٥۳

All things small or great have been written down.

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَنَهَرٍۢ ۝٥٤

Surely those who fear God and follow the straight path will be amidst gardens and light,

فِى مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِندَ مَلِيكٍۢ مُّقْتَدِرٍۭ ۝٥٥

At the still centre in the proximity of the King all-powerful.
