50. Qaaf

قٓ ۚ وَٱلْقُرْءَانِ ٱلْمَجِيدِ ۝١

قٓ ۚ وَالۡقُرۡاٰنِ الۡمَجِيۡدِۚ‏ ۝١

50:1 Qāf . (I swear) by the glorious Qur’ān, (you are sent as a messenger.)

بَلْ عَجِبُوٓا۟ أَن جَآءَهُم مُّنذِرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَقَالَ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا شَىْءٌ عَجِيبٌ ۝٢

بَلۡ عَجِبُوۡۤا اَنۡ جَآءَهُمۡ مُّنۡذِرٌ مِّنۡهُمۡ فَقَالَ الۡكٰفِرُوۡنَ هٰذَا شَىۡءٌ عَجِيۡبٌ​ۚ‏ ۝٢

50:2 But they wonder that a warner has come to them from among themselves; so the disbelievers said, “This is something strange.

أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا ۖ ذَٰلِكَ رَجْعٌۢ بَعِيدٌ ۝٣

ءَاِذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا ​ۚ ذٰ لِكَ رَجۡعٌ ۢ بَعِيۡدٌ‏ ۝٣

50:3 Is it when we die and become dust (that we will be brought to life again?) That is a return, far (from understanding).”

قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا تَنقُصُ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِنْهُمْ ۖ وَعِندَنَا كِتَٰبٌ حَفِيظٌۢ ۝٤

قَدۡ عَلِمۡنَا مَا تَنۡقُصُ الۡاَرۡضُ مِنۡهُمۡ​ۚ وَعِنۡدَنَا كِتٰبٌ حَفِيۡظٌ‏  ۝٤

50:4 We know very well how much of them is diminished by the earth, and We have a Book that Preserves every thing.

بَلْ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ فَهُمْ فِىٓ أَمْرٍ مَّرِيجٍ ۝٥

بَلۡ كَذَّبُوۡا بِالۡحَقِّ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمۡ فَهُمۡ فِىۡۤ اَمۡرٍ مَّرِيۡجٍ‏  ۝٥

50:5 Rather, they rejected the truth when it came to them; so they are in a confused state.

أَفَلَمْ يَنظُرُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا وَزَيَّنَّٰهَا وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍ ۝٦

اَ فَلَمۡ يَنۡظُرُوۡۤا اِلَى السَّمَآءِ فَوۡقَهُمۡ كَيۡفَ بَنَيۡنٰهَا وَزَ يَّـنّٰهَا وَمَا لَهَا مِنۡ فُرُوۡجٍ‏ ۝٦

50:6 Did they not, then, look to the sky above them, how We have built it and beautified it, and it has no cracks?

وَٱلْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَٰهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ وَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍۭ بَهِيجٍ ۝٧

وَالۡاَرۡضَ مَدَدۡنٰهَا وَاَ لۡقَيۡنَا فِيۡهَا رَوَاسِىَ وَاَنۡۢبَتۡنَا فِيۡهَا مِنۡ كُلِّ زَوۡجٍۢ بَهِيۡجٍ ۙ‏ ۝٧

50:7 As for the earth, We have spread it out, and cast on it firm hills, and caused to grow therein every kind of delightful things,

تَبْصِرَةً وَذِكْرَىٰ لِكُلِّ عَبْدٍ مُّنِيبٍ ۝٨

تَبۡصِرَةً وَّذِكۡرٰى لِكُلِّ عَبۡدٍ مُّنِيۡبٍ‏ ۝٨

50:8 as a source of vision and as a lesson to every servant (of Allah) who turns (to Him for guidance).

وَنَزَّلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً مُّبَٰرَكًا فَأَنۢبَتْنَا بِهِۦ جَنَّٰتٍ وَحَبَّ ٱلْحَصِيدِ ۝٩

وَنَزَّلۡنَا مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً مُّبٰـرَكًا فَاَنۡۢبَـتۡـنَا بِهٖ جَنّٰتٍ وَّحَبَّ الۡحَصِيۡدِ ۙ‏ ۝٩

50:9 And We sent down blessed water from the sky, and caused to grow therewith gardens and grain of harvest,

وَٱلنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَٰتٍ لَّهَا طَلْعٌ نَّضِيدٌ ۝١٠

وَالنَّخۡلَ بٰسِقٰتٍ لَّهَا طَلۡـعٌ نَّضِيۡدٌ ۙ‏ ۝١٠

50:10 and towering date palms that have spadices, put one upon another,

رِّزْقًا لِّلْعِبَادِ ۖ وَأَحْيَيْنَا بِهِۦ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ ٱلْخُرُوجُ ۝١١

رِّزۡقًا لِّلۡعِبَادِ​ ۙ وَاَحۡيَيۡنَا بِهٖ بَلۡدَةً مَّيۡـتًا​ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ الۡخُـرُوۡجُ‏ ۝١١

50:11 as a provision to the servants (of Allah). And We gave life with it to a dead land. Similar will be the exit (of the dead from their graves).

كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلرَّسِّ وَثَمُودُ ۝١٢

كَذَّبَتۡ قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمُ نُوۡحٍ وَّاَصۡحٰبُ الرَّسِّ وَثَمُوۡدُۙ‏ ۝١٢

50:12 It (resurrection) was rejected before them by the people of NūH, and the people of Rass and Thamūd,

وَعَادٌ وَفِرْعَوْنُ وَإِخْوَٰنُ لُوطٍ ۝١٣

وَعَادٌ وَّفِرۡعَوۡنُ وَاِخۡوَانُ لُوۡطٍۙ‏ ۝١٣

50:13 and ‘Ād, and Fir’aun (Pharaoh), and the brothers of LūT,

وَأَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْأَيْكَةِ وَقَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ ۚ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ ٱلرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِيدِ ۝١٤

وَّاَصۡحٰبُ الۡاَيۡكَةِ وَقَوۡمُ تُبَّعٍ​ؕ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِيۡدِ‏ ۝١٤

50:14 and dwellers of Aaikah, and the people of Tubba’. Each one of them rejected the messengers; so My threat came true.

أَفَعَيِينَا بِٱلْخَلْقِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ فِى لَبْسٍ مِّنْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍ ۝١٥

اَفَعَيِيۡنَا بِالۡخَـلۡقِ الۡاَوَّلِ​ؕ بَلۡ هُمۡ فِىۡ لَبۡسٍ مِّنۡ خَلۡقٍ جَدِيۡدٍ‏ ۝١٥

50:15 Is it, then, that We were worn out by the first creation? No, but they are still in confusion about the new creation.

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِۦ نَفْسُهُۥ ۖ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ ٱلْوَرِيدِ ۝١٦

وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا الۡاِنۡسَانَ وَنَعۡلَمُ مَا تُوَسۡوِسُ بِهٖ نَفۡسُهٗ ۖۚ وَنَحۡنُ اَقۡرَبُ اِلَيۡهِ مِنۡ حَبۡلِ الۡوَرِيۡدِ‏ ۝١٦

50:16 Indeed We have created man, and We know whatever thoughts his inner self develops, and We are closer to him than (his) jugular vein,

إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى ٱلْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ ٱلشِّمَالِ قَعِيدٌ ۝١٧

اِذۡ يَتَلَقَّى الۡمُتَلَقِّيٰنِ عَنِ الۡيَمِيۡنِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِيۡدٌ‏  ۝١٧

50:17 when the two receiving angels receive (every human act to record it), seated (one) on the right and (one) on the left.

مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ ۝١٨

مَا يَلۡفِظُ مِنۡ قَوۡلٍ اِلَّا لَدَيۡهِ رَقِيۡبٌ عَتِيۡدٌ‏ ۝١٨

50:18 Not a single word is uttered by one but there is a watcher near him, ready (to record).

وَجَآءَتْ سَكْرَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ ۝١٩

وَ جَآءَتۡ سَكۡرَةُ الۡمَوۡتِ بِالۡحَـقِّ​ؕ ذٰلِكَ مَا كُنۡتَ مِنۡهُ تَحِيۡدُ‏  ۝١٩

50:19 The daze of death has (to) come with truth. That is what you tried to escape.

وَنُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ ٱلْوَعِيدِ ۝٢٠

وَنُفِخَ فِى الصُّوۡرِ ​ؕ ذٰ لِكَ يَوۡمُ الۡوَعِيۡدِ‏ ۝٢٠

50:20 And the Horn will be blown. That will be the day of (which) threat (was given).

وَجَآءَتْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّعَهَا سَآئِقٌ وَشَهِيدٌ ۝٢١

وَجَآءَتۡ كُلُّ نَفۡسٍ مَّعَهَا سَآٮِٕقٌ وَّشَهِيۡدٌ‏ ۝٢١

50:21 And everybody will come, along with one (angel) to drive (him to the field of reckoning) and one (angel) to testify (about his deeds).

لَّقَدْ كُنتَ فِى غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هَٰذَا فَكَشَفْنَا عَنكَ غِطَآءَكَ فَبَصَرُكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ حَدِيدٌ ۝٢٢

لَقَدۡ كُنۡتَ فِىۡ غَفۡلَةٍ مِّنۡ هٰذَا فَكَشَفۡنَا عَنۡكَ غِطَآءَكَ فَبَصَرُكَ الۡيَوۡمَ حَدِيۡدٌ‏ ۝٢٢

50:22 “You were heedless of this. Now We have removed your veil from you; so your sight today is sharp.”

وَقَالَ قَرِينُهُۥ هَٰذَا مَا لَدَىَّ عَتِيدٌ ۝٢٣

وَقَالَ قَرِيۡـنُهٗ هٰذَا مَا لَدَىَّ عَتِيۡدٌ ؕ‏ ۝٢٣

50:23 And his companion (i.e. the angel who recorded his deeds) will say, “This is what I have with me, ready (to be presented as his record of deeds).”

أَلْقِيَا فِى جَهَنَّمَ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ ۝٢٤

اَلۡقِيَا فِىۡ جَهَنَّمَ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ عَنِيۡدٍۙ‏ ۝٢٤

50:24 (Then it will be said,) “Cast, (O two angels,) into Jahannam (Hell) every obstinate disbeliever

مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ مُّرِيبٍ ۝٢٥

مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلۡخَيۡرِ مُعۡتَدٍ مُّرِيۡبِ ۙ‏ ۝٢٥

50:25 who used to prevent (others) from good (behavior), who transgressed all bounds, who cast doubts (in true faith),

ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَأَلْقِيَاهُ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلشَّدِيدِ ۝٢٦

اۨلَّذِىۡ جَعَلَ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ فَاَ لۡقِيٰهُ فِى الۡعَذَابِ الشَّدِيۡدِ‏ ۝٢٦

50:26 who set up another god along with Allah. So cast him (O angels) in the painful punishment.”

قَالَ قَرِينُهُۥ رَبَّنَا مَآ أَطْغَيْتُهُۥ وَلَٰكِن كَانَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍۭ بَعِيدٍ ۝٢٧

قَالَ قَرِيۡنُهٗ رَبَّنَا مَاۤ اَطۡغَيۡتُهٗ وَلٰـكِنۡ كَانَ فِىۡ ضَلٰلٍۢ بَعِيۡدٍ‏  ۝٢٧

50:27 His (evil) companion (i.e. the Satan) will say, “O our Lord, I did not cause him to rebel, but he was himself (involved) in straying far from the track.”

قَالَ لَا تَخْتَصِمُوا۟ لَدَىَّ وَقَدْ قَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْكُم بِٱلْوَعِيدِ ۝٢٨

قَالَ لَا تَخۡتَصِمُوۡا لَدَىَّ وَقَدۡ قَدَّمۡتُ اِلَيۡكُمۡ بِالۡوَعِيۡدِ‏  ۝٢٨

50:28 He (Allah) will say, “Do not quarrel before Me, while I had sent to you My threat well in advance.

مَا يُبَدَّلُ ٱلْقَوْلُ لَدَىَّ وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِظَلَّٰمٍ لِّلْعَبِيدِ ۝٢٩

مَا يُبَدَّلُ الۡقَوۡلُ لَدَىَّ وَمَاۤ اَنَا بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلۡعَبِيۡدِ‏ ۝٢٩

50:29 The Word is not changed with Me, and I Am not so unjust to My servants.”

يَوْمَ نَقُولُ لِجَهَنَّمَ هَلِ ٱمْتَلَأْتِ وَتَقُولُ هَلْ مِن مَّزِيدٍ ۝٣٠

يَوۡمَ نَـقُوۡلُ لِجَهَـنَّمَ هَلِ امۡتَلَـئْتِ وَتَقُوۡلُ هَلۡ مِنۡ مَّزِيۡدٍ‏  ۝٣٠

50:30 (Remind them of) the Day when We will say to Jahannam (Hell), “Are you filled up?” and it will say, “Are there some more?”

وَأُزْلِفَتِ ٱلْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ ۝٣١

وَاُزۡلِفَتِ الۡجَـنَّةُ لِلۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ غَيۡرَ بَعِيۡدٍ‏ ۝٣١

50:31 And the Jannah (Paradise) will be brought close for the God-fearing, no longer distant.

هَٰذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِكُلِّ أَوَّابٍ حَفِيظٍ ۝٣٢

هٰذَا مَا تُوۡعَدُوۡنَ لِكُلِّ اَوَّابٍ حَفِيۡظٍ​ۚ‏ ۝٣٢

50:32 (And it will be said,) “This is what you were promised for everyone who was oft-returning to Allah, vigilant (against sins),

مَّنْ خَشِىَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ وَجَآءَ بِقَلْبٍ مُّنِيبٍ ۝٣٣

مَنۡ خَشِىَ الرَّحۡمٰنَ بِالۡغَيۡبِ وَجَآءَ بِقَلۡبٍ مُّنِيۡبِۙ‏ ۝٣٣

50:33 the one who feared the RaHmān (The All-Merciful Allah), without seeing Him, and came up with a heart oriented towards Him.

ٱدْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَٰمٍ ۖ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ ٱلْخُلُودِ ۝٣٤

اۨدۡخُلُوۡهَا بِسَلٰمٍ​ؕ ذٰلِكَ يَوۡمُ الۡخُلُوۡدِ‏ ۝٣٤

50:34 Enter it in peace. That is the Day of Eternity.”

لَهُم مَّا يَشَآءُونَ فِيهَا وَلَدَيْنَا مَزِيدٌ ۝٣٥

لَهُمۡ مَّا يَشَآءُوۡنَ فِيۡهَا وَلَدَيۡنَا مَزِيۡدٌ‏ ۝٣٥

50:35 They will have in it whatever they wish, and with Us there are things even more than that.

وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّن قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُم بَطْشًا فَنَقَّبُوا۟ فِى ٱلْبِلَٰدِ هَلْ مِن مَّحِيصٍ ۝٣٦

وَكَمۡ اَهۡلَـكۡنَا قَبۡلَهُمۡ مِّنۡ قَرۡنٍ هُمۡ اَشَدُّ مِنۡهُمۡ بَطۡشًا فَنَقَّبُوۡا فِى الۡبِلَادِ ؕ هَلۡ مِنۡ مَّحِيۡصٍ‏ ۝٣٦

50:36 And how many a generation We have destroyed before them who were stronger than these in their grip on power, and they searched out the cities. Was there any place (for them) to escape?

إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَذِكْرَىٰ لِمَن كَانَ لَهُۥ قَلْبٌ أَوْ أَلْقَى ٱلسَّمْعَ وَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ ۝٣٧

اِنَّ فِىۡ ذٰلِكَ لَذِكۡرٰى لِمَنۡ كَانَ لَهٗ قَلۡبٌ اَوۡ اَلۡقَى السَّمۡعَ وَهُوَ شَهِيۡدٌ‏ ۝٣٧

50:37 Indeed, there is a lesson in all this for him who has a heart and gives ear (to the truth) attentively.

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ وَمَا مَسَّنَا مِن لُّغُوبٍ ۝٣٨

وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا فِىۡ سِتَّةِ اَيَّامٍ​ۖ وَّمَا مَسَّنَا مِنۡ لُّغُوۡبٍ‏ ۝٣٨

50:38 We created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six days, and no weariness even touched Us.

فَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ ٱلْغُرُوبِ ۝٣٩

فَاصۡبِرۡ عَلٰى مَا يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ وَسَبِّحۡ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّكَ قَبۡلَ طُلُوۡعِ الشَّمۡسِ وَقَبۡلَ الۡغُرُوۡبِ​ۚ‏ ۝٣٩

50:39 So, (O Prophet,) endure with patience what they say, and proclaim His purity, along with your Lord’s praise, before sunrise and before sunset.

وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَأَدْبَٰرَ ٱلسُّجُودِ ۝٤٠

وَمِنَ الَّيۡلِ فَسَبِّحۡهُ وَاَدۡبَارَ السُّجُوۡدِ‏ ۝٤٠

50:40 And in hours of night, proclaim His purity, and at the ends of prostration.

وَٱسْتَمِعْ يَوْمَ يُنَادِ ٱلْمُنَادِ مِن مَّكَانٍ قَرِيبٍ ۝٤١

وَاسۡتَمِعۡ يَوۡمَ يُنَادِ الۡمُنَادِ مِنۡ مَّكَانٍ قَرِيۡبٍۙ‏ ۝٤١

50:41 And listen: The Day when the caller will call out from a near place,

يَوْمَ يَسْمَعُونَ ٱلصَّيْحَةَ بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ ٱلْخُرُوجِ ۝٤٢

يَوۡمَ يَسۡمَعُوۡنَ الصَّيۡحَةَ بِالۡحَـقِّ​ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ يَوۡمُ الۡخُـرُوۡجِ‏  ۝٤٢

50:42 the Day they will hear the Cry in reality- that will be the Day of Resurrection.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْىِۦ وَنُمِيتُ وَإِلَيْنَا ٱلْمَصِيرُ ۝٤٣

اِنَّا نَحۡنُ نُحۡىٖ وَنُمِيۡتُ وَاِلَيۡنَا الۡمَصِيۡرُۙ‏ ۝٤٣

50:43 Surely We alone give life and bring death, and to Us is the final return

يَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ ٱلْأَرْضُ عَنْهُمْ سِرَاعًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ حَشْرٌ عَلَيْنَا يَسِيرٌ ۝٤٤

يَوۡمَ تَشَقَّقُ الۡاَرۡضُ عَنۡهُمۡ سِرَاعًا​ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ حَشۡرٌ عَلَيۡنَا يَسِيۡرٌ‏  ۝٤٤

50:44 on the Day when the earth will burst apart exposing them, while they will be hurrying up (to come out). That is an assembly, so easy for Us (to muster).

نَّحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ ۖ وَمَآ أَنتَ عَلَيْهِم بِجَبَّارٍ ۖ فَذَكِّرْ بِٱلْقُرْءَانِ مَن يَخَافُ وَعِيدِ ۝٤٥

نَحۡنُ اَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ​ وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِجَـبَّارٍ​ فَذَكِّرۡ بِالۡقُرۡاٰنِ مَنۡ يَّخَافُ وَعِيۡدِ‏ ۝٤٥

50:45 We know well what they say, and you are not (sent) as one who compels them. So exhort, through the Qur’ān, the one who fears My warning.
