Al-Ma'arij


سَأَلَ سَآئِلُۢ بِعَذَابٖ وَاقِعٖ

(70:1) A beseecher besought the visitation of chastisement,1


لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ لَيۡسَ لَهُۥ دَافِعٞ

(70:2) (a chastisement meant) for the unbelievers, one which none can avert;


مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ ذِي ٱلۡمَعَارِجِ

(70:3) a chastisement from Allah, the Lord of the ascending steps,2


تَعۡرُجُ ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ إِلَيۡهِ فِي يَوۡمٖ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهُۥ خَمۡسِينَ أَلۡفَ سَنَةٖ

(70:4) by which the angels and the Spirit3 ascend to Him4
in one Day the duration of which is fifty thousand years.5


فَٱصۡبِرۡ صَبۡرٗا جَمِيلًا

(70:5) So, (O Prophet), persevere with gracious perseverance.6


إِنَّهُمۡ يَرَوۡنَهُۥ بَعِيدٗا

(70:6) Verily they think that the chastisement is far off,


وَنَرَىٰهُ قَرِيبٗا

(70:7) while We think that it is near at hand.7
