51. Adh-Dhaariyat

وَٱلذَّٰرِيَٰتِ ذَرْوًا ۝١

وَالذّٰرِيٰتِ ذَرۡوًا ۙ‏ ۝١

51:1 By those (winds) that scatter dust,

فَٱلْحَٰمِلَٰتِ وِقْرًا ۝٢

فَالۡحٰمِلٰتِ وِقۡرًا ۙ‏ ۝٢

51:2 then those that bear load (of clouds),

فَٱلْجَٰرِيَٰتِ يُسْرًا ۝٣

فَالۡجٰرِيٰتِ يُسۡرًا ۙ‏ ۝٣

51:3 then those that float with ease,

فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمْرًا ۝٤

فَالۡمُقَسِّمٰتِ اَمۡرًا ۙ‏ ۝٤

51:4 then those who distribute things,

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌ ۝٥

اِنَّمَا تُوۡعَدُوۡنَ لَصَادِقٌ ۙ‏ ۝٥

51:5 whatever you are being promised is surely true,

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌ ۝٦

وَّاِنَّ الدِّيۡنَ لوَاقِعٌ ؕ‏ ۝٦

51:6 and Recompense (of deeds) is sure to happen.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ ۝٧

وَالسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ الۡحُـبُكِ ۙ‏ ۝٧

51:7 By the sky, having paths,

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ ۝٨

اِنَّـكُمۡ لَفِىۡ قَوۡلٍ مُّخۡتَلِفٍ ۙ‏ ۝٨

51:8 you are (involved) in a contradictory discussion.

يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ ۝٩

يُّـؤۡفَكُ عَنۡهُ مَنۡ اُفِكَ ؕ‏ ۝٩

51:9 Turned away from this (Qur’ān) is the one who is turned away (totally from the truth.)

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ ۝١٠

قُتِلَ الۡخَـرّٰصُوۡنَۙ‏ ۝١٠

51:10 Death upon those who make conjectures (against the true faith),

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ سَاهُونَ ۝١١

الَّذِيۡنَ هُمۡ فِىۡ غَمۡرَةٍ سَاهُوۡنَۙ‏ ۝١١

51:11 - those who are drowned in ignorance, forgetful!

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٢

يَسۡـَٔــلُوۡنَ اَيَّانَ يَوۡمُ الدِّيۡنِؕ‏ ۝١٢

51:12 They ask, “When shall be the Day of Recompense?”

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ ۝١٣

يَوۡمَ هُمۡ عَلَى النَّارِ يُفۡتَنُوۡنَ‏ ۝١٣

51:13 (It will be) the Day when they will be heated on the Fire,

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ۝١٤

ذُوۡقُوۡا فِتۡنَتَكُمۡؕ هٰذَا الَّذِىۡ كُنۡتُمۡ بِهٖ تَسۡتَعۡجِلُوۡنَ‏ ۝١٤

51:14 (and it will be said to them,) “Taste (the punishment of) your mischief. This is what you have been asking to be brought sooner.”

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ ۝١٥

اِنَّ الۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ فِىۡ جَنّٰتٍ وَّعُيُوۡنٍۙ‏ ۝١٥

51:15 The God-fearing (on the other hand) will be in gardens and springs,

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ ۝١٦

اٰخِذِيۡنَ مَاۤ اٰتٰٮهُمۡ رَبُّهُمۡ​ؕ اِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا قَبۡلَ ذٰلِكَ مُحۡسِنِيۡنَؕ‏  ۝١٦

51:16 receiving what their Lord will have given to them. Indeed, prior to this, they were good in their deeds.

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ ۝١٧

كَانُوۡا قَلِيۡلًا مِّنَ الَّيۡلِ مَا يَهۡجَعُوۡنَ‏ ۝١٧

51:17 They used to sleep little in the night;

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ ۝١٨

وَبِالۡاَسۡحَارِ هُمۡ يَسۡتَغۡفِرُوۡنَ‏ ۝١٨

51:18 and in the hours before dawn they used to pray for forgiveness,

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ ۝١٩

وَفِىۡۤ اَمۡوَالِهِمۡ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّآٮِٕلِ وَالۡمَحۡرُوۡمِ‏ ۝١٩

51:19 and in their wealth, there was a right for one who asks and for one who is deprived.

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ ۝٢٠

وَفِى الۡاَرۡضِ اٰيٰتٌ لِّلۡمُوۡقِنِيۡنَۙ‏ ۝٢٠

51:20 In the earth, there are signs for those who (seek truth to) believe,

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝٢١

وَفِىۡۤ اَنۡفُسِكُمۡ​ؕ اَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَ‏ ۝٢١

51:21 and in your own selves! So, do you not perceive?

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ ۝٢٢

وَفِى السَّمَآءِ رِزۡقُكُمۡ وَمَا تُوۡعَدُوۡنَ‏ ۝٢٢

51:22 And in the heavens, there is your sustenance and all that you have been promised.

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ ۝٢٣

فَوَرَبِّ السَّمَآءِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ اِنَّهٗ لَحَـقٌّ مِّثۡلَ مَاۤ اَنَّكُمۡ تَنۡطِقُوۡنَ‏ ۝٢٣

51:23 So, by the Lord of the heavens and the earth, it (the Day of Recompense) is a reality, as sure as the fact that you (can) speak.

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ ۝٢٤

هَلۡ اَتٰٮكَ حَدِيۡثُ ضَيۡفِ اِبۡرٰهِيۡمَ الۡمُكۡرَمِيۡنَ​ۘ‏ ۝٢٤

51:24 Has there come to you the story of the honoured guests of Ibrāhīm?

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًا ۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمٌ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ ۝٢٥

اِذۡ دَخَلُوۡا عَلَيۡهِ فَقَالُوۡا سَلٰمًا​ؕ قَالَ سَلٰمٌ ۚ قَوۡمٌ مُّنۡكَرُوۡنَ​‏  ۝٢٥

51:25 When they (the angels in human form) entered unto him and said, “We greet you with Salām .” He said, “Salām on you.” (And he said to himself,) “(They are) unknown people.”

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍ سَمِينٍ ۝٢٦

فَرَاغَ اِلٰٓى اَهۡلِهٖ فَجَآءَ بِعِجۡلٍ سَمِيۡنٍۙ‏ ۝٢٦

51:26 Then he slipped off to his home and fetched a fattened calf.

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ ۝٢٧

فَقَرَّبَهٗۤ اِلَيۡهِمۡ قَالَ اَلَا تَاۡكُلُوۡنَ‏ ۝٢٧

51:27 So he presented it before them (to eat, but being angels, they refrained.) He said, “Would you not eat?”

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةً ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٍ ۝٢٨

فَاَوۡجَسَ مِنۡهُمۡ خِيۡفَةً ​ؕ قَالُوۡا لَا تَخَفۡ​ ؕ وَبَشَّرُوۡهُ بِغُلٰمٍ عَلِيۡمٍ‏ ۝٢٨

51:28 So he felt some fear in his heart. They said, “Be not scared.” And they gave him the good news of (the birth of) a knowledgeable boy.

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌ ۝٢٩

فَاَقۡبَلَتِ امۡرَاَتُهٗ فِىۡ صَرَّةٍ فَصَكَّتۡ وَجۡهَهَا وَقَالَتۡ عَجُوۡزٌ عَقِيۡمٌ‏ ۝٢٩

51:29 So his wife came forward with a clamor, and slapped her own face and said, “(How can I have a child when I am) a barren old woman?”

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ۝٣٠

قَالُوۡا كَذٰلِكِ ۙ قَالَ رَبُّكِ​ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ الۡحَكِيۡمُ الۡعَلِيۡمُ‏  ۝٣٠

51:30 They said, “This is how your Lord has said. Surely, He is All-Wise, All-Knowing.”

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ۝٣١

قَالَ فَمَا خَطۡبُكُمۡ اَيُّهَا الۡمُرۡسَلُوۡنَ‏ ۝٣١

51:31 He (Ibrāhīm) said (to the angels), “Then, what is your mission O messengers?”

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍ مُّجْرِمِينَ ۝٣٢

قَالُـوۡۤا اِنَّاۤ اُرۡسِلۡنَاۤ اِلٰى قَوۡمٍ مُّجۡرِمِيۡنَۙ‏ ۝٣٢

51:32 They said, “We are sent to a guilty people, (i.e. the people of Sodom)

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةً مِّن طِينٍ ۝٣٣

لِنُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حِجَارَةً مِّنۡ طِيۡنٍۙ‏ ۝٣٣

51:33 so that we may send down upon them stones of clay,

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ ۝٣٤

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِنۡدَ رَبِّكَ لِلۡمُسۡرِفِيۡنَ‏ ۝٣٤

51:34 marked by your Lord for the transgressors.”

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝٣٥

فَاَخۡرَجۡنَا مَنۡ كَانَ فِيۡهَا مِنَ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ​ۚ‏ ۝٣٥

51:35 So, We let the believers who were there to come out (from danger),

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ ۝٣٦

فَمَا وَجَدۡنَا فِيۡهَا غَيۡرَ بَيۡتٍ مِّنَ الۡمُسۡلِمِيۡنَ​ۚ‏ ۝٣٦

51:36 but We did not find in it any Muslims, except one house.

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةً لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ ۝٣٧

وَتَرَكۡنَا فِيۡهَاۤ اٰيَةً لِّـلَّذِيۡنَ يَخَافُوۡنَ الۡعَذَابَ الۡاَلِيۡمَؕ‏  ۝٣٧

51:37 And We left in this (event) a sign (of deterrence) for those who fear the painful punishment.

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ ۝٣٨

وَفِىۡ مُوۡسٰۤی اِذۡ اَرۡسَلۡنٰهُ اِلٰى فِرۡعَوۡنَ بِسُلۡطٰنٍ مُّبِيۡنٍ‏ ۝٣٨

51:38 And (We left a similar sign) in (the story of) Mūsā, when We sent him to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh) with a clear proof.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ۝٣٩

فَتَوَلّٰى بِرُكۡنِهٖ وَقَالَ سٰحِرٌ اَوۡ مَجۡنُوۡنٌ‏ ۝٣٩

51:39 So he turned away along with his chiefs and said, “ (Mūsā is) a magician or a madman!”

فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ ۝٤٠

فَاَخَذۡنٰهُ وَجُنُوۡدَهٗ فَنَبَذۡنٰهُمۡ فِى الۡيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيۡمٌؕ‏ ۝٤٠

51:40 So We seized him and his army, and cast them into the sea, as he was of culpable behaviour.

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ ۝٤١

وَفِىۡ عَادٍ اِذۡ اَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمُ الرِّيۡحَ الۡعَقِيۡمَ​ۚ‏ ۝٤١

51:41 And (a similar sign was left) in (the story of) ‘Ād, when We sent upon them the wind that was barren (from any benefit);

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ ۝٤٢

مَا تَذَرُ مِنۡ شَىۡءٍ اَتَتۡ عَلَيۡهِ اِلَّا جَعَلَتۡهُ كَالرَّمِيۡمِؕ‏ ۝٤٢

51:42 it spared nothing it came upon, but rendered it like a stuff smashed by decay.

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ ۝٤٣

وَفِىۡ ثَمُوۡدَ اِذۡ قِيۡلَ لَهُمۡ تَمَتَّعُوۡا حَتّٰى حِيۡنٍ‏ ۝٤٣

51:43 And (a similar sign was left) in (the story of) Thamūd, when it was said to them, “Enjoy yourselves for a while.”

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ۝٤٤

فَعَتَوۡا عَنۡ اَمۡرِ رَبِّهِمۡ فَاَخَذَتۡهُمُ الصّٰعِقَةُ وَ هُمۡ يَنۡظُرُوۡنَ‏  ۝٤٤

51:44 Then they rebelled against the command of your Lord; so the thunderbolt (of divine punishment) seized them, while they were looking on.

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ ۝٤٥

فَمَا اسۡتَطَاعُوۡا مِنۡ قِيَامٍ وَّمَا كَانُوۡا مُنۡتَصِرِيۡنَۙ‏ ۝٤٥

51:45 Then they were neither able to stand (before the punishment), nor could they defend themselves.

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ ۝٤٦

وَقَوۡمَ نُوۡحٍ مِّنۡ قَبۡلُ​ؕ اِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا قَوۡمًا فٰسِقِيۡنَ‏ ۝٤٦

51:46 And (We have destroyed) the people of NūH even before; indeed they were a sinful people.

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ۝٤٧

وَ السَّمَآءَ بَنَيۡنٰهَا بِاَيۡٮدٍ وَّاِنَّا لَمُوۡسِعُوۡنَ‏ ۝٤٧

51:47 And the sky was built by Us with might; and indeed We are the expanders.

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ ۝٤٨

وَالۡاَرۡضَ فَرَشۡنٰهَا فَنِعۡمَ الۡمٰهِدُوۡنَ‏ ۝٤٨

51:48 And the earth was spread out by Us as a floor; so how well have We spread it out!

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٤٩

وَمِنۡ كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ خَلَقۡنَا زَوۡجَيۡنِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَذَكَّرُوۡنَ‏ ۝٤٩

51:49 And from every thing We have created pairs of twos, so that you may heed.

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ۝٥٠

فَفِرُّوۡۤا اِلَى اللّٰهِ​ؕ اِنِّىۡ لَـكُمۡ مِّنۡهُ نَذِيۡرٌ مُّبِيۡنٌ​ۚ‏  ۝٥٠

51:50 So, flee to Allah. Indeed I am a plain warner sent by Him for you.

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ ۝٥١

وَلَا تَجۡعَلُوۡا مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ​ؕ اِنِّىۡ لَـكُمۡ مِّنۡهُ نَذِيۡرٌ مُّبِيۡنٌ​ۚ‏ ۝٥١

51:51 And do not make up any other god along with Allah. Indeed I am a plain warner sent by Him for you.

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ۝٥٢

كَذٰلِكَ مَاۤ اَتَى الَّذِيۡنَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهِمۡ مِّنۡ رَّسُوۡلٍ اِلَّا قَالُوۡا سَاحِرٌ اَوۡ مَجۡنُوۡنٌ​ۚ‏ ۝٥٢

51:52 In similar way, no messenger came to those before them, but they said, “(He is) a magician or a madman.”

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ ۝٥٣

اَتَوَاصَوۡا بِهٖ​ۚ بَلۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمٌ طَاغُوۡنَ​ۚ‏ ۝٥٣

51:53 Have they handed down (this saying) to each other as a legacy? Rather they are a rebellious people.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ ۝٥٤

فَتَوَلَّ عَنۡهُمۡ فَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ بِمَلُوۡمٍ‏ ۝٥٤

51:54 So, turn away from them, for you are not blamed.

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝٥٥

وَّذَكِّرۡ فَاِنَّ الذِّكۡرٰى تَنۡفَعُ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ‏ ۝٥٥

51:55 And keep reminding, because reminding benefits the believers.

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ ۝٥٦

وَمَا خَلَقۡتُ الۡجِنَّ وَالۡاِنۡسَ اِلَّا لِيَعۡبُدُوۡنِ‏ ۝٥٦

51:56 I did not create the Jinns and the human beings except for the purpose that they should worship Me.

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ ۝٥٧

مَاۤ اُرِيۡدُ مِنۡهُمۡ مِّنۡ رِّزۡقٍ وَّمَاۤ اُرِيۡدُ اَنۡ يُّطۡعِمُوۡنِ‏  ۝٥٧

51:57 I do not want any sustenance from them, nor do I want them to feed Me.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ ۝٥٨

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الۡقُوَّةِ الۡمَتِيۡنُ‏ ۝٥٨

51:58 In fact, Allah is the All-Sustainer, Possessor of power, the Strong.

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ۝٥٩

فَاِنَّ لِلَّذِيۡنَ ظَلَمُوۡا ذَنُوۡبًا مِّثۡلَ ذَنُوۡبِ اَصۡحٰبِهِمۡ فَلَا يَسۡتَعۡجِلُوۡنِ‏ ۝٥٩

51:59 So, those who did wrong will have their turn like the turn of their counterparts. So, they should not ask Me to hasten on.

فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ ۝٦٠

فَوَيۡلٌ لِّـلَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا مِنۡ يَّوۡمِهِمُ الَّذِىۡ يُوۡعَدُوۡنَ‏  ۝٦٠

51:60 Woe, then, to those who disbelieve because of the Day of theirs that they are promised (for punishment).
