Allah in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful. | |

The Hour came near and the moon was split. |
.1 |

And if they see any sign, they turn their faces and say this is magic perpetual. |
.2 |

And they belied and followed their desires, and every affair has already been resolved. |
.3 |

And undoubtedly, there has come to them those tidings wherein there was enough to check. |
.4 |

Perfect wisdom, but warners profit them not. |
.5 |

So, turn you away from them. The day when the caller will call towards a harsh unrecognized thing. |
.6 |

Casting down their eyes, they will come out of the Graves as they are locusts scattered. |
.7 |

Hastening towards the Caller. The infidels will say, 'this day is hard'. |
.8 |

The people of Nuh belied before them, they declared Our bondman to be liar and said, 'he is a madman andscolded him'. |
.9 |

He therefore prayed to his Lord, saying 'I am vanquished, do then take revenge for me. |
.10 |

Then We opened the doors of heaven with forceful flowing water. |
.11 |

And We made the earth flow with springs, so the two waters met to such a quantity, which was alreadydecreed. |
.12 |

And We bore Nuh on a thing of planks and nails. |
.13 |

Floating before Our eyes, a recompense for him who was rejected. |
.14 |

And We left it as a sign. Is there then any one who would pay attention? |
.15 |

Therefore, how were My torment and My warnings? |
.16 |

And verily, We have made Quran easy for remembering, is there then any one to remember? |
.17 |

Aad belied, then how was My torment and My warnings? |
.18 |

Surely, We sent against them a strong windstorm in a day whose ill-fortune remained lasting over them. |
.19 |

It used to beat down the men as though they are the roots of uprooted palm trees. |
.20 |

Then how were My torment and My warning? |
.21 |

And undoubtedly, We made the Quran easy for remembering is there then any one to remember, |
.22 |

Thamud belied the Messengers. |
.23 |

And they said, 'shall we follow a man from among our selves? Then we in deed are misled and mad. |
.24 |

Has the Reminder been sent down upon him from all among us? Nay, rather he is great liar, self-boaster. |
.25 |

Very soon, tomorrow they will know who was a big liar, self-boaster? |
.26 |

We are to send the she Camel for their trial, therefore O Saleh! Watch them and have patience. |
.27 |

And inform them that the water has been divided between them in shares. He who has his turn should bepresented at the share. |
.28 |

Then they called their companion and he after taking the sword hamstrung her. |
.29 |

Then how were My torment and My warnings? |
.30 |

We sent against them a single uproar, hence they became like the left over grass of enclosure builders, dry,trampled. |
.31 |

And verily, We made the Quran easy for remembering, is there then any one to remember? |
.32 |

The people of Lut belied the Messengers. |
.33 |

Verily, We sent over them a storm of stones except the family of Lut. We rescued them by early dawn. |
.34 |

As a favour from Us. Thus do We recompense him who is grateful. |
.35 |

And surely, he had warned them of Our grasp, but they doubted in the Commandments of warning. |
.36 |

They intended to solicit him from his guests, so We obliterated their every saying, 'taste My torment and Mywarning. |
.37 |

And undoubtedly, there came upon them early in the morning a lasting torment. |
.38 |

Taste then My torment and My warning. |
.39 |

And undoubtedly, We made Quran easy for remembering. Is there then any one to remember? |
.40 |

And verily the Messengers came to the people of Firawn (Pharoah). |
.41 |

They belied all Our signs Then We seized them with a grave befitting to the dignity of the Honourable and theAll Authoritative. |
.42 |

Are your infidels better than those? Or have you an exemption in the Scriptures' |
.43 |

Or is it that they say, 'We shall take revenge all-together'. |
.44 |

Now this multitude is being driven out and they will turn their backs. |
.45 |

Nay, rather the Hour is their promise and the Hour is the hardest and bitterest. |
.46 |

Surely, the culprits are misled and mad. |
.47 |

The day when they shall be dragged into the fire on their faces and it will be said to them, 'taste the flame ofthe Hell. |
.48 |

Undoubtedly, We created every thing according to an estimate. |
.49 |

And Our work is only a matter as the twinkling of an eye. |
.50 |

And undoubtedly, We have destroyed your likes, is there anyone to look into? |
.51 |

And whatever they have done is in the Books. |
.52 |

And everything, small or big has been written down. |
.53 |

Undoubtedly, the pious are in gardens and stream. |
.54 |

In the sitting of truth before the sovereign Most Authoritative. |
