وَبَنَيۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمۡ سَبۡعٗا شِدَادٗا
And We have built above you seven strong (heavens),
وَجَعَلۡنَا سِرَاجٗا وَهَّاجٗا
And have appointed a dazzling lamp,
وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُعۡصِرَٰتِ مَآءٗ ثَجَّاجٗا
And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water,
لِّنُخۡرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبّٗا وَنَبَاتٗا
Thereby to produce grain and plant,
وَجَنَّـٰتٍ أَلۡفَافًا
And gardens of thick foliage.
إِنَّ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ كَانَ مِيقَٰتٗا
Lo! the Day of Decision is a fixed time,
يَوۡمَ يُنفَخُ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأۡتُونَ أَفۡوَاجٗا
A day when the trumpet is blown and ye come in multitudes,
وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتۡ أَبۡوَٰبٗا
And the heaven is opened and becometh as gates,
وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ فَكَانَتۡ سَرَابًا
And the hills are set in motion and become as a mirage.
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتۡ مِرۡصَادٗا
Lo! hell lurketh in ambush,
