مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝١

I swear by the Day of Resurrection

وَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلنَّفْسِ ٱللَّوَّامَةِ ۝٢

and by the self accusing soul (that you will certainly be resurrected).

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُۥ ۝۳

Do men think that We shall never be able to assemble their bones?

بَلَىٰ قَٰدِرِينَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّسَوِّىَ بَنَانَهُۥ ۝٤

We certainly have the power to restore them even the very tips of their finger.

بَلْ يُرِيدُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُۥ ۝٥

In fact, people want to have eternal life in this world.

يَسْـَٔلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝٦

He asks, "When will be the Day of Judgment?"

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلْبَصَرُ ۝۷

When the eye is bewildered,

وَخَسَفَ ٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۸

the moon eclipsed.

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۹

and the sun and the moon are brought together,

يَقُولُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ ٱلْمَفَرُّ ۝١۰

people will say, "Is there anywhere to run away?"

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ۝١١

Certainly not! There will be no place of refuge.

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمُسْتَقَرُّ ۝١٢

The only place of refuge will be with God.

يُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ ۝١۳

On that day, people will be informed of all that they had done and all that they were supposed to do.

بَلِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةٌۭ ۝١٤

In fact, people are well-aware of their own soul

وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ ۝١٥

even though they make excuses.

لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِۦ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِۦٓ ۝١٦

(Muhammad), do not move your tongue too quickly to recite the Quran.

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُۥ وَقُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۷

We shall be responsible for its collection and its recitation.

فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَٰهُ فَٱتَّبِعْ قُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۸

When We recite it, follow its recitation (by Us).

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُۥ ۝١۹

We shall be responsible for its explanation.

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ ٱلْعَاجِلَةَ ۝٢۰

Human beings certainly do not want to pay much attention to the Quran. In fact, they love the worldly life

وَتَذَرُونَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةَ ۝٢١

and neglect the life to come.

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاضِرَةٌ ۝٢٢

On the Day of Judgment some faces will be bright,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌۭ ۝٢۳

and look forward to receiving mercy from their Lord.

وَوُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بَاسِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٤

Others will be despondent,

تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٥

certain of facing a great calamity.

كَلَّآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلتَّرَاقِىَ ۝٢٦

Some people, certainly, do not believe in it, but when a person's soul reaches up to his throat

وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍۢ ۝٢۷

and the angels say, "Who will take away his soul,

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ ٱلْفِرَاقُ ۝٢۸

(the angels of mercy or the angels of wrath,)" then, he will realize that it is time to leave this world.

وَٱلْتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ ۝٢۹

When legs are twisted around each other,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمَسَاقُ ۝۳۰

that will be the time to be driven to one's Lord.

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ ۝۳١

The human being does not want to believe the Truth, nor does he want to pray.

وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ۝۳٢

He rejects the faith, turns away

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ يَتَمَطَّىٰٓ ۝۳۳

and haughtily goes to his people.

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ ۝۳٤

Woe to you!

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰٓ ۝۳٥

Woe to you!

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى ۝۳٦

For you, the human being of such behavior, will certainly deserve it.

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةًۭ مِّن مَّنِىٍّۢ يُمْنَىٰ ۝۳۷

Does the human being think that he will be left uncontrolled?

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةًۭ فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ۝۳۸

Was he not once just a drop of discharged sperm.

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ ٱلزَّوْجَيْنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ ۝۳۹

Was he not turned into a clot of blood? God then formed him and gave him proper shape. From the human being, God made males and females in pairs.

أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يُحْۦِىَ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ ۝٤۰

Does He then not have the power to bring the dead back to life?
