مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ ۝١

WHEN WHAT IS to happen comes to pass --

لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ۝٢

Which is bound to happen undoubtedly --

خَافِضَةٌۭ رَّافِعَةٌ ۝۳

Degrading (some) and exalting (others);

إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّۭا ۝٤

When the earth is shaken up convulsively,

وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّۭا ۝٥

The mountains bruised and crushed,

فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءًۭ مُّنۢبَثًّۭا ۝٦

Turned to dust, floating in the air,

وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٰجًۭا ثَلَٰثَةًۭ ۝۷

You will become three categories:

فَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ ۝۸

Those of the right hand -- how (happy) will be those of the right hand!

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ ۝۹

Then those of the left hand -- how (unhappy) will be those of the left hand!

وَٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ۝١۰

Then the foremost, how pre-excellent,

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ ۝١١

Who will be honoured

فِى جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ۝١٢

In gardens of tranquility;

ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝١۳

A number of the earlier peoples,

وَقَلِيلٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝١٤

And a few of later ages,

عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍۢ مَّوْضُونَةٍۢ ۝١٥

On couches wrought of gold,

مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ ۝١٦

Reclining face to face.

يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌۭ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ۝١۷

Youths of never-ending bloom will pass round to them

بِأَكْوَابٍۢ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍۢ مِّن مَّعِينٍۢ ۝١۸

Cups and decanters, beakers full of sparkling wine,

لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ۝١۹

Unheady, uninebriating;

وَفَٰكِهَةٍۢ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ۝٢۰

And such fruits as they fancy,

وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍۢ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ۝٢١

Bird meats that they relish,

وَحُورٌ عِينٌۭ ۝٢٢

And companions with big beautiful eyes

كَأَمْثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ ۝٢۳

Like pearls within their shells,

جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ۝٢٤

As recompense for all they had done.

لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًۭا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا ۝٢٥

They will hear no nonsense there or talk of sin,

إِلَّا قِيلًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا ۝٢٦

Other than "Peace, peace" the salutation.

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٢۷

As for those of the right hand -- how (happy) those of the right hand --

فِى سِدْرٍۢ مَّخْضُودٍۢ ۝٢۸

They will be in (the shade) of thornless lote

وَطَلْحٍۢ مَّنضُودٍۢ ۝٢۹

And acacia covered with heaps of bloom,

وَظِلٍّۢ مَّمْدُودٍۢ ۝۳۰

Lengthened shadows,

وَمَآءٍۢ مَّسْكُوبٍۢ ۝۳١

Gushing water,

وَفَٰكِهَةٍۢ كَثِيرَةٍۢ ۝۳٢

And fruits numberless,

لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍۢ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍۢ ۝۳۳

Unending, unforbidden,

وَفُرُشٍۢ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ ۝۳٤

And maidens incomparable.

إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءًۭ ۝۳٥

We have formed them in a distinctive fashion,

فَجَعَلْنَٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا ۝۳٦

And made them virginal,

عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًۭا ۝۳۷

Loving companions matched in age,

لِّأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۳۸

For those of the right hand.

ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝۳۹

A crowd of earlier generations

وَثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝٤۰

And a crowd of the later.

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ۝٤١

But those of the left hand -- how (unhappy) those of the left hand --

فِى سَمُومٍۢ وَحَمِيمٍۢ ۝٤٢

Will be in the scorching wind and boiling water,

وَظِلٍّۢ مِّن يَحْمُومٍۢ ۝٤۳

Under the shadow of thick black smoke

لَّا بَارِدٍۢ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ۝٤٤

Neither cool nor agreeable.

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ۝٤٥

They were endowed with good things

وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝٤٦

But persisted in that greater sin,

وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًۭا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ۝٤۷

And said: "What! When we are dead and turned to dust and bones, shall we then be raised again?

أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ۝٤۸

And so will our fathers?"

قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝٤۹

Say: "Indeed, the earlier and the later generations

لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَٰتِ يَوْمٍۢ مَّعْلُومٍۢ ۝٥۰

Will be gathered together on a certain day which is predetermined.

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٥١

Then you, the erring and the deniers,

لَءَاكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٍۢ مِّن زَقُّومٍۢ ۝٥٢

Will eat of the tree of Zaqqum,

فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ ۝٥۳

Fill your bellies with it,

فَشَٰرِبُونَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْحَمِيمِ ۝٥٤

And drink over it scalding water,

فَشَٰرِبُونَ شُرْبَ ٱلْهِيمِ ۝٥٥

Lapping it up like female camels raging of thirst with disease."

هَٰذَا نُزُلُهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ ۝٥٦

Such will be their welcome on the Day of Judgement.

نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ۝٥۷

It is He who created you, then why do you not affirm the truth?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تُمْنُونَ ۝٥۸

Just consider (the semen) that you emit,

ءَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُونَ ۝٥۹

Do you create it, or We are its creator?

نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ ۝٦۰

We have incorporated death in your constitution, and We shall not be hindered

عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَٰلَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِى مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ۝٦١

From replacing you with others or raising you in a way you do not know.

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٦٢

You have known the first creation, then why do you not reflect?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ ۝٦۳

Just ponder over what you sow:

ءَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلزَّٰرِعُونَ ۝٦٤

Do you give it its increase, or are We the giver?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَٰهُ حُطَٰمًۭا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ ۝٦٥

We could turn it, if We pleased, into straw; then you would rue the day,

إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ ۝٦٦

(And say:) "We have fallen into debt;

بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ ۝٦۷

Indeed, we have been deprived of the fruits of our labour."

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلْمَآءَ ٱلَّذِى تَشْرَبُونَ ۝٦۸

Consider the water that you drink.

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنزِلُونَ ۝٦۹

Do you send it down from the clouds, or We send it down?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنَٰهُ أُجَاجًۭا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ ۝۷۰

We could make it brackish, if We pleased; so why do you not acknowledge thanks?

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِى تُورُونَ ۝۷١

Consider the fire that you strike (and get by friction).

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنشِـُٔونَ ۝۷٢

Have you raised its tree, or We have raised it?

نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَٰهَا تَذْكِرَةًۭ وَمَتَٰعًۭا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ ۝۷۳

We have made it as a reminder and convenience for the needy.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝۷٤

So glorify your Lord, the most supreme.

۞ فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝۷٥

So I call the placement of the stars to witness --

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٌۭ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ۝۷٦

And this surely is great evidence if you can understand --

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرْءَانٌۭ كَرِيمٌۭ ۝۷۷

That this is indeed the glorious Qur'an

فِى كِتَٰبٍۢ مَّكْنُونٍۢ ۝۷۸

(Inscribed) in the well-kept Book.

لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْمُطَهَّرُونَ ۝۷۹

Only they can reach it who are clean (of mind).

تَنزِيلٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ۝۸۰

It has been revealed by the Lord of all the worlds.

أَفَبِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ ۝۸١

Then why do you dissimulate this Revelation?

وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝۸٢

You live by calling it a lie.

فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ ۝۸۳

Then how is it that when the (dying) breath is withdrawn into the throat (and rattles),

وَأَنتُمْ حِينَئِذٍۢ تَنظُرُونَ ۝۸٤

And you wait for the moment (of death),

وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝۸٥

We are closer to him than you, even though you cannot see?

فَلَوْلَآ إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ ۝۸٦

Then why, if you are not indebted (to Us for life),

تَرْجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ ۝۸۷

Can you not bring him back? (Answer) if you are truthful

فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ ۝۸۸

Then, if he is one of the honoured,

فَرَوْحٌۭ وَرَيْحَانٌۭ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍۢ ۝۸۹

There will be peace and plenty, and gardens of tranquility for him.

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۹۰

If he is of those of the right hand,

فَسَلَٰمٌۭ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۹١

There will be the salutation by those of the right hand: "Peace on you.

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ۝۹٢

But if he is of the deniers and the errants,

فَنُزُلٌۭ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍۢ ۝۹۳

The welcome will be boiling water

وَتَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ۝۹٤

And the roasting in Hell.

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ ۝۹٥

This is indeed the ultimate truth.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝۹٦

Then praise your Lord, the most supreme.
