51:3by [the ships] which move gently [on the sea];

51:4by [the angels] who dispense [livelihood] by [His] command:

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌۭ ﴿5﴾

51:5indeed what you are promised is true,

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ ﴿6﴾

51:6and indeed the retribution will surely come to pass!

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ ﴿7﴾

Wassamaaa'i zaatil hubuk

51:7By the sky full of adornment [with stars],

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍۢ مُّخْتَلِفٍۢ ﴿8﴾

51:8indeed you are of different opinions!

51:10Perish the liars,

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍۢ سَاهُونَ ﴿11﴾

51:11who are heedless in a stupor!

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿12﴾

Yas'aloona ayyaana yawmud Deen

51:12They ask, ‘When will be the Day of Retribution?’

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ ﴿13﴾

Yawma hum 'alan naari yuftanoon

51:13It is the day when they will be tormented in the Fire,

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ﴿14﴾

Zooqoo fitnatakum haa zal lazee kuntum bihee tas ta'jiloon

51:14[and will be told]: ‘Taste your torment. This is what you used to hasten.’

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍ ﴿15﴾

Innal muttaqeena fee jannaatinw wa 'uyoon

51:15Indeed the Godwary will be amid gardens and springs,

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ ﴿16﴾

Aakhizeena maaa aataahum Rabbuhum; innahum kaanoo qabla zaalika muhsineen

51:16receiving what their Lord has given them, for they had been virtuous aforetime.

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ ﴿17﴾

kaanoo qaleelam minal laili maa yahja'oon

51:17They used to sleep a little during the night,

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ ﴿18﴾

Wa bilashaari hum yastaghfiroon

51:18and at dawns they would plead for forgiveness,

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ ﴿19﴾

Wa feee amwaalihim haqqul lissaaa'ili walmahroom

51:19and there was a share in their wealth for the beggar and the deprived.

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌۭ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ ﴿20﴾

Wa fil ardi aayaatul lilmooqineen

51:20In the earth are signs for those who have conviction,

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ ﴿21﴾

Wa feee anfusikum; afalaa tubsiroon

51:21and in your souls [as well]. Will you not then perceive?

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ ﴿22﴾

Wa fissamaaa'i rizqukum wa maa too'adoon

51:22And in the sky is your provision and what you are promised.

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ ﴿23﴾

Fawa Rabbis samaaa'i wal ardi innahoo lahaqqum misla maa annakum tantiqoon

51:23By the Lord of the sky and the earth, it is indeed the truth, just as [it is a fact that] you speak.

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ ﴿24﴾

Hal ataaka hadeesu daifi Ibraaheemal mukrameen

51:24Did you receive the story of Abraham’s honoured guests?

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًۭا ۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمٌۭ قَوْمٌۭ مُّنكَرُونَ ﴿25﴾

Iz dakhaloo 'alaihi faqaaloo salaaman qaala salaamun qawmum munkaroon

51:25When they entered into his presence, they said, ‘Peace!’ ‘Peace!’ He answered, ‘[You are] an unfamiliar folk.’

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍۢ سَمِينٍۢ ﴿26﴾

Faraagha ilaaa ahlihee fajaaa'a bi'ijlin sameen

51:26Then he retired to his family and brought a fat [roasted] calf,

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ ﴿27﴾

Faqarrabahooo ilaihim qaala alaa taakuloon

51:27and put it near them. He said, ‘Will you not eat?’

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٍۢ ﴿28﴾

Fa awjasa minhm khee fatan qaaloo laa takhaf wa bashsharoohu bighulaamin 'aleem

51:28Then he felt a fear of them. They said, ‘Do not be afraid!’ and they gave him the good news of a wise son.

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍۢ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌۭ ﴿29﴾

Fa aqbalatim ra-atuhoo fee sarratin fasakkat wajhahaa wa qaalat 'ajoozun 'aqeem

51:29Then his wife came forward crying [with joy]. She beat her face, and said, ‘A barren old woman!’

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ﴿30﴾

Qaaloo kazaaliki qaala Rabbuki innahoo huwal hakeemul 'aleem

51:30They said, ‘So has your Lord said. Indeed He is the All-wise, the All-knowing.’

۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿31﴾

Qaala famaa khatbukum ayyuhal mursaloon

51:31He said, ‘O messengers, what is now your errand?’

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍۢ مُّجْرِمِينَ ﴿32﴾

Qaalooo innaaa ursilnaaa ilaa qawmim mujrimeen

51:32They said, ‘We have been sent toward a guilty people,

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن طِينٍۢ ﴿33﴾

Linursila 'alaihim hijaa ratam min teen

51:33that We may rain upon them stones of clay,

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ ﴿34﴾

Musawwamatan 'inda rabbika lilmusrifeen

51:34sent for the transgressors from your Lord.

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿35﴾

Fa akhrajnaa man kaana feehaa minal mu'mineen

51:35So We picked out those who were in it of the faithful,

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ ﴿36﴾

Famaa wajadnaa feehaa ghaira baitim minal muslimeen

51:36but We did not find there other than one house of Muslims,

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ ﴿37﴾

Wa taraknaa feehaaa aayatal lillazeena yakhaafoonal 'azaabal aleem

51:37and We have left therein a sign for those who fear a painful punishment.’

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ ﴿38﴾

Wa fee Moosaaa iz arsalnaahu ilaa Fir'wna bisultaa nim mubeen

51:38And in Moses [too there is a sign] when We sent him to Pharaoh with a manifest authority.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌۭ ﴿39﴾

Fatawalla biruknihee wa qaala saahirun aw majnoon

51:39But he turned away assured of his might, and said, ‘A magician or a crazy man!’

فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ ﴿40﴾

Fa akhaznaahu wa junoo dahoo fanabaznaahum fil yammi wa huwa muleem

51:40So We seized him and his hosts, and cast them into the sea, while he was blameworthy.

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ ﴿41﴾

Wa fee 'Aadin iz arsalnaa 'alaihimur reehal'aqeem

51:41And in ‘Ad when We unleashed upon them a barren wind.

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ ﴿42﴾

Maa tazaru min shai'in atat 'alaihi illaa ja'alat hu karrameem

51:42It left nothing that it came upon without making it like decayed bones.

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ ﴿43﴾

Wa fee Samooda iz qeela lahum tamatta''oo hattaa heen

51:43And in Thamud, when they were told, ‘Enjoy for a while.’

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ﴿44﴾

Fa'ataw 'an amri Rabbihim fa akhazal humus saa'iqatu wa hum yanzuroon

51:44Then they defied the command of their Lord; so the thunderbolt seized them as they looked on.

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍۢ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ ﴿45﴾

Famas tataa'oo min qiyaaminw wa maa kaanoo muntasireen

51:45So they were neither able to rise up, nor to come to one another’s aid.

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًۭا فَٰسِقِينَ ﴿46﴾

Wa qawma Noohim min qablu innahum kaano qawman faasiqeen

51:46And the people of Noah aforetime. Indeed, they were a transgressing lot.

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ﴿47﴾

Wassamaaa'a banainaa haa bi aydinw wa innaa lamoosi'oon

51:47We have built the heaven with might, and indeed it is We who are its expanders.

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ ﴿48﴾

Wal arda farashnaahaa fani'mal maahidoon

51:48And We have spread out the earth, so how excellent spreaders We have been!

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿49﴾

Wa min kulli shai'in khalaqnaa zawjaini la'allakum tazakkaroon

51:49In all things We have created pairs so that you may take admonition.

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ ﴿50﴾

Fafirrooo ilal laahi innee lakum minhu nazeerum mubeen

51:50‘So flee toward Allah. Indeed, I am from Him a manifest warner to you.

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ ﴿51﴾

Wa laa taj'aloo ma'al laahi ilaahan aakhara innee lakum minhu nazeerum mubeen

51:51Do not set up another god besides Allah. Indeed I am from Him a manifest warner to you.’

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ﴿52﴾

Kazaalika maaa atal lazeena min qablihim mir Rasoolin illaa qaaloo saahirun aw majnoon

51:52So it was that there did not come any apostle to those who were before them but they said, ‘A magician,’ or ‘A crazy man!’

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ ﴿53﴾

Atawaasaw bih; bal hum qawmun taaghoon

51:53Did they enjoin this upon one another?! Rather, they were a rebellious lot.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍۢ ﴿54﴾

Fatawalla 'anhum famaaa anta bimaloom

51:54So turn away from them, as you will not be blameworthy.

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿55﴾

Wa zakkir fa innaz zikraa tanfa'ul mu'mineen

51:55And admonish, for admonition indeed benefits the faithful.

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ ﴿56﴾

Wa maa khalaqtul jinna wal insa illaa liya'budoon

51:56I did not create the jinn and the humans except that they may worship Me.

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍۢ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ ﴿57﴾

Maaa ureedu minhum mir rizqinw wa maaa ureedu anyyut'imoon

51:57I desire no provision from them, nor do I desire that they should feed Me.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ ﴿58﴾

Innal laaha Huwar Razzaaqu Zul Quwwatil Mateen

51:58Indeed it is Allah who is the All-provider, Powerful and All-strong.

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًۭا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ﴿59﴾

Fa inna lillazeena zalamoo zanoobam misla zanoobi ashaabihim falaa yasta'jiloon

51:59Indeed the lot of those who do wrong [now] will be like the lot of their [earlier] counterparts. So let them not ask Me to hasten on [that fate].

فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ ﴿60﴾

Fawailul lillazeena kafaroo miny yawmihimul lazee yoo'adoon

51:60Woe to the faithless for the day they are promised!
