هَٰذَا نَذِيرٞ مِّنَ ٱلنُّذُرِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰٓ
(53:56) This is a warning among the warnings of yore.9
أَزِفَتِ ٱلۡأٓزِفَةُ
(53:57) The imminent Hour has drawn near,0
لَيۡسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ كَاشِفَةٌ
(53:58) and none but Allah can avert it.1
أَفَمِنۡ هَٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِيثِ تَعۡجَبُونَ
(53:59) Will you, then, wonder at this?2
وَتَضۡحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبۡكُونَ
(53:60) Will you laugh at it rather than weep?3
وَأَنتُمۡ سَٰمِدُونَ
(53:61) Will you occupy yourselves simply in merriment?4
فَٱسۡجُدُواْۤ لِلَّهِۤ وَٱعۡبُدُواْ۩
(53:62) Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him.5
