مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلْوَاقِعَةُ ۝١

When the Terror descends

لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ۝٢

(and none denies its descending)

خَافِضَةٌۭ رَّافِعَةٌ ۝۳

abasing, exalting,

إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ رَجًّۭا ۝٤

when the earth shall be rocked

وَبُسَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ بَسًّۭا ۝٥

and the mountains crumbled

فَكَانَتْ هَبَآءًۭ مُّنۢبَثًّۭا ۝٦

and become a dust, scattered,

وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَٰجًۭا ثَلَٰثَةًۭ ۝۷

and you shall be three bands --

فَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ ۝۸

Companions of the Right (O Companions of the Right!)

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ ۝۹

Companions of the Left (O Companions of the Left!)

وَٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّٰبِقُونَ ۝١۰

and the Outstrippers: the Outstrippers

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ ۝١١

those are they brought nigh the Throne,

فِى جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ۝١٢

in the Gardens of Delight

ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝١۳

(a throng of the ancients

وَقَلِيلٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝١٤

and how few of the later folk)

عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍۢ مَّوْضُونَةٍۢ ۝١٥

upon close-wrought couches

مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيْهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ ۝١٦

reclining upon them, set face to face,

يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌۭ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ۝١۷

immortal youths going round about them

بِأَكْوَابٍۢ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍۢ مِّن مَّعِينٍۢ ۝١۸

with goblets, and ewers, and a cup from a spring

لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ۝١۹

(no brows throbbing, no intoxication)

وَفَٰكِهَةٍۢ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ۝٢۰

and such fruits as they shall choose,

وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍۢ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ۝٢١

and such flesh of fowl as they desire,

وَحُورٌ عِينٌۭ ۝٢٢

and wide-eyed houris

كَأَمْثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ ۝٢۳

as the likeness of hidden pearls,

جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ۝٢٤

a recompense for that they laboured.

لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًۭا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا ۝٢٥

Therein they shall hear no idle talk, no cause of sin,

إِلَّا قِيلًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا سَلَٰمًۭا ۝٢٦

only the saying 'Peace, Peace!'

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝٢۷

The Companions of the Right (O Companions of the Right!)

فِى سِدْرٍۢ مَّخْضُودٍۢ ۝٢۸

mid thornless lote-trees

وَطَلْحٍۢ مَّنضُودٍۢ ۝٢۹

and serried acacias,

وَظِلٍّۢ مَّمْدُودٍۢ ۝۳۰

and spreading shade

وَمَآءٍۢ مَّسْكُوبٍۢ ۝۳١

and outpoured waters,

وَفَٰكِهَةٍۢ كَثِيرَةٍۢ ۝۳٢

and fruits abounding

لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍۢ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍۢ ۝۳۳

unfailing, unforbidden,

وَفُرُشٍۢ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ ۝۳٤

and upraised couches.

إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءًۭ ۝۳٥

Perfectly We formed them, perfect,

فَجَعَلْنَٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا ۝۳٦

and We made them spotless virgins,

عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًۭا ۝۳۷

chastely amorous,

لِّأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۳۸

like of age for the Companions of the Right.

ثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝۳۹

A throng of the ancients

وَثُلَّةٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝٤۰

and a throng of the later folk.

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ۝٤١

The Companions of the Left (O Companions of the Left!)

فِى سَمُومٍۢ وَحَمِيمٍۢ ۝٤٢

mid burning winds and boiling waters

وَظِلٍّۢ مِّن يَحْمُومٍۢ ۝٤۳

and the shadow of a smoking blaze

لَّا بَارِدٍۢ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ۝٤٤

neither cool, neither goodly;

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ۝٤٥

and before that they lived at ease,

وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝٤٦

and persisted in the Great Sin,

وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًۭا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ۝٤۷

ever saying, 'What, when we are dead and become dust and bones, shall we indeed be raised up?

أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ۝٤۸

What, and our fathers, the ancients?'

قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ۝٤۹

Say: 'The ancients, and the later folk

لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَٰتِ يَوْمٍۢ مَّعْلُومٍۢ ۝٥۰

shall be gathered to the appointed time of a known day.

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٥١

Then you erring ones, you that cried lies,

لَءَاكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٍۢ مِّن زَقُّومٍۢ ۝٥٢

you shall eat of a tree called Zakkoum,

فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنْهَا ٱلْبُطُونَ ۝٥۳

and you shall fill therewith your bellies

فَشَٰرِبُونَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْحَمِيمِ ۝٥٤

and drink on top of that boiling water

فَشَٰرِبُونَ شُرْبَ ٱلْهِيمِ ۝٥٥

lapping it down like thirsty camels.'

هَٰذَا نُزُلُهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ ۝٥٦

This shall be their hospitality on the Day of Doom.

نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ۝٥۷

We created you; therefore why will you not believe?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تُمْنُونَ ۝٥۸

Have you considered the seed you spill?

ءَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُونَ ۝٥۹

Do you yourselves create it, or are We the Creators?

نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ ۝٦۰

We have decreed among you Death; We shall not be outstripped;

عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَٰلَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِى مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ۝٦١

that We may exchange the likes of you, and make you to grow again in a fashion you know not.

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٦٢

You have known the first growth; so why will you not remember?

أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ ۝٦۳

Have you considered the soil you till?

ءَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلزَّٰرِعُونَ ۝٦٤

Do you yourselves sow it, or are We the Sowers?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَٰهُ حُطَٰمًۭا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ ۝٦٥

Did We will, We would make it broken orts, and you would remain bitterly jesting --

إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ ۝٦٦

'We are debt-loaded;

بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ ۝٦۷

nay, we have been robbed!'

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلْمَآءَ ٱلَّذِى تَشْرَبُونَ ۝٦۸

Have you considered the water you drink?

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنزِلُونَ ۝٦۹

Did you send it down from the clouds, or did We send it?

لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنَٰهُ أُجَاجًۭا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ ۝۷۰

Did We will, We would make it bitter; so why are you not thankful?

أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِى تُورُونَ ۝۷١

Have you considered the fire you kindle?

ءَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنشِـُٔونَ ۝۷٢

Did you make its timber to grow, or did We make it?

نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَٰهَا تَذْكِرَةًۭ وَمَتَٰعًۭا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ ۝۷۳

We Ourselves made it for a reminder, and a boon to the desert-dwellers.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝۷٤

Then magnify the Name of thy Lord, the All-mighty.

۞ فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ۝۷٥

No! I swear by the fallings of the stars

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٌۭ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ۝۷٦

(and that is indeed a mighty oath, did you but know it)

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرْءَانٌۭ كَرِيمٌۭ ۝۷۷

it is surely a noble Koran

فِى كِتَٰبٍۢ مَّكْنُونٍۢ ۝۷۸

in a hidden Book

لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْمُطَهَّرُونَ ۝۷۹

none but the purified shall touch,

تَنزِيلٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ۝۸۰

a sending down from the Lord of all Being.

أَفَبِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ ۝۸١

What, do you hold this discourse in disdain,

وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝۸٢

and do you make it your living to cry lies?

فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ ۝۸۳

Why, but when the soul leaps to the throat of the dying

وَأَنتُمْ حِينَئِذٍۢ تَنظُرُونَ ۝۸٤

and that hour you are watching

وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝۸٥

(And We are nigher him than you, but you do not see Us)

فَلَوْلَآ إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ ۝۸٦

why, if you are not at Our disposal,

تَرْجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ ۝۸۷

do you not bring back his soul, if you speak truly?

فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ ۝۸۸

Then, if he be of those brought nigh the Throne,

فَرَوْحٌۭ وَرَيْحَانٌۭ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍۢ ۝۸۹

there shall be repose and ease, and a Garden of Delight;

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۹۰

and if he be a Companion of the Right:

فَسَلَٰمٌۭ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ۝۹١

'Peace be upon thee, Companion of the Right!'

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ۝۹٢

But if he be of them that cried lies, and went astray,

فَنُزُلٌۭ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍۢ ۝۹۳

there shall be a hospitality of boiling water

وَتَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ۝۹٤

and the roasting in Hell.

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ ۝۹٥

Surely this is the truth of certainty.

فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝۹٦

Then magnify the Name of thy Lord, the All-mighty.
