وَإِذَا ٱلۡجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتۡ
and when the Hellfire is fiercely flared up,
وَإِذَا ٱلۡجَنَّةُ أُزۡلِفَتۡ
and when Paradise is brought near—
عَلِمَتۡ نَفۡسٞ مَّآ أَحۡضَرَتۡ
˹on that Day˺ each soul will know what ˹deeds˺ it has brought along.
فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلۡخُنَّسِ
I do swear by the receding stars
ٱلۡجَوَارِ ٱلۡكُنَّسِ
which travel and hide,
وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا عَسۡعَسَ
and the night as it falls
وَٱلصُّبۡحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ
and the day as it breaks!
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولٖ كَرِيمٖ
Indeed, this ˹Quran˺ is the Word of ˹Allah delivered by Gabriel,˺ a noble messenger-angel,
ذِي قُوَّةٍ عِندَ ذِي ٱلۡعَرۡشِ مَكِينٖ
full of power, held in honour by the Lord of the Throne,
مُّطَاعٖ ثَمَّ أَمِينٖ
obeyed there ˹in heaven˺, and trustworthy.
وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجۡنُونٖ
And your fellow man is not insane.
