وَٱلۡمُؤۡتَفِكَةَ أَهۡوَىٰ

And ˹it was˺ He ˹Who˺ turned the cities ˹of Sodom and Gomorrah˺ upside down.


فَغَشَّىٰهَا مَا غَشَّىٰ

How overwhelming was what covered ˹them˺!1


فَبِأَيِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَىٰ

Now, which of your Lord’s favours will you dispute?


هَٰذَا نَذِيرٞ مِّنَ ٱلنُّذُرِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰٓ

This ˹Prophet˺ is a warner like earlier ones.


أَزِفَتِ ٱلۡأٓزِفَةُ

The approaching ˹Hour˺ has drawn near.


لَيۡسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ كَاشِفَةٌ

None but Allah can disclose it.


أَفَمِنۡ هَٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِيثِ تَعۡجَبُونَ

Do you find this revelation astonishing,


وَتَضۡحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبۡكُونَ

laughing ˹at it˺ and not weeping ˹in awe˺,


وَأَنتُمۡ سَٰمِدُونَ

while persisting in heedlessness?


فَٱسۡجُدُواْۤ لِلَّهِۤ وَٱعۡبُدُواْ۩

Instead, prostrate to Allah and worship ˹Him alone˺!
