ﮃﮄﮅ ﰀ​

Al-Waqi'ah


When the Imminent Event (of Doom) will occur,
ﮇﮈﮉ ﰁ​

there will be no one to deny its occurrence.
ﮋﮌ ﰂ​

It will be abasing (some), exalting (others)
ﮎﮏﮐﮑ ﰃ​

when the earth will be jolted with a terrible jolt,
ﮓﮔﮕ ﰄ​

and the mountains will be crumbled a thorough crumbling,
ﮗﮘﮙ ﰅ​

until they will become dust, scattered in the air,
ﮛﮜﮝ ﰆ​

and you will be (divided into) three categories.
ﮟﮠﮡﮢﮣ ﰇ​

As for the People of the Right, how (lucky) are the People of the Right!
ﮥﮦﮧﮨﮩ ﰈ​

And the People of the Left ? How (wretched) are the People of the Left!
ﮫﮬ ﰉ​

And the Foremost are the foremost.
ﮮﮯ ﰊ​

Those are the ones blessed with nearness (to Allah)
ﮱﯓﯔ ﰋ​

in gardens of bliss,
ﯖﯗﯘ ﰌ​

many from the first generations,
ﯚﯛﯜ ﰍ​

and a few from the later ones.
ﯞﯟﯠ ﰎ​

(They will be sitting) on thrones woven with gold,
ﯢﯣﯤ ﰏ​

reclining on them, facing each other.
ﭑﭒﭓﭔ ﰐ​

Immortal boys will rotate around them
ﭖﭗﭘﭙﭚ ﰑ​

with bowls and jugs and a goblet of pure wine,
ﭜﭝﭞﭟﭠ ﰒ​

from which they will neither suffer headache, nor will they be intoxicated,
ﭢﭣﭤ ﰓ​

-and with fruits that they choose,
ﭦﭧﭨﭩ ﰔ​

and the flesh of birds that they desire.
ﭫﭬ ﰕ​

And (for them there will be) houris, having lovely big eyes,
ﭮﭯﭰ ﰖ​

all (neat and clean) like a hidden pearl,
ﭲﭳﭴﭵ ﰗ​

as a reward for what they used to do.
ﭷﭸﭹﭺﭻﭼ ﰘ​

They will hear neither an absurd talk in it, nor something leading to sin,
ﭾﭿﮀﮁ ﰙ​

but (they will hear) the words of Salām , Salām (as greetings).
ﮃﮄﮅﮆﮇ ﰚ​

And the People of the right? How (lucky) are the People of the Right!
ﮉﮊﮋ ﰛ​

(They will be) amid lote-trees with no thorns,
ﮍﮎ ﰜ​

and the trees of TalH , (banana, or a fragrant tree) having layers one upon the other,
ﮐﮑ ﰝ​

and a shade, spread all over,
ﮓﮔ ﰞ​

and water, poured forth,
ﮖﮗ ﰟ​

and a lot of fruits,
ﮙﮚﮛﮜ ﰠ​

neither interrupted (in any season), nor prohibited,
ﮞﮟ ﰡ​

and mattresses of high quality.
ﮡﮢﮣ ﰢ​

Surely We have made up those females in a special creation,
ﮥﮦ ﰣ​

and have made them virgins,
ﮨﮩ ﰤ​

amorous to their husbands, matching them in age,
ﮫﮬ ﰥ​

for the People of the Right,
ﮮﮯﮰ ﰦ​

(comprising) many from the first generations,
ﯓﯔﯕ ﰧ​

and many from the later ones.
ﯗﯘﯙﯚﯛ ﰨ​

And the People of the Left? How (wretched) are the People of the Left!
ﯝﯞﯟ ﰩ​

(They will be) in scorching wind and boiling water,
ﯡﯢﯣ ﰪ​

and in a shade of black smoke,
ﯥﯦﯧﯨ ﰫ​

neither cool nor graceful.
ﯪﯫﯬﯭﯮ ﰬ​

They were earlier in luxuries,
ﯰﯱﯲﯳﯴ ﰭ​

and used to persist in major sins,
ﯶﯷﯸﯹﯺﯻﯼﯽﯾ ﰮ​

and used to say, “Is it that when we die and become dust-is it that we will be raised again,
ﰀﰁ ﰯ​

and our ancient fathers as well?”
ﰃﰄﰅﰆ ﰰ​

Say, “All the earlier and the later ones
ﰈﰉﰊﰋﰌ ﰱ​

will be gathered together for a fixed time of a specified Day.
ﭑﭒﭓﭔﭕ ﰲ​

Then O you, the erring, the denying people,
ﭗﭘﭙﭚﭛ ﰳ​

you will have to eat from the tree of zaqqūm,
ﭝﭞﭟ ﰴ​

and to fill with it the bellies,
ﭡﭢﭣﭤ ﰵ​

then on top of it you will have to drink boiling water,
ﭦﭧﭨ ﰶ​

and to drink like camels suffering from the disease of over-thirst.
ﭪﭫﭬﭭ ﰷ​

This will be their welcome entertainment on the Day of Requital.
ﭯﭰﭱﭲ ﰸ​

We have created you; then why do you not believe in it?
ﭴﭵﭶ ﰹ​

So, tell Me about the semen you drop (in the wombs):
ﭸﭹﭺﭻﭼ ﰺ​

Is it you who create it, or are We the Creator?
ﭾﭿﮀﮁﮂﮃﮄ ﰻ​

We have appointed (the times of) death among you, and We cannot be frustrated
ﮆﮇﮈﮉﮊﮋﮌﮍﮎ ﰼ​

from replacing you with others like you, and creating you (afresh) in that (form) which you do not know.
ﮐﮑﮒﮓﮔﮕ ﰽ​

And you certainly know the first creation; then why do you not take lesson?
ﮗﮘﮙ ﰾ​

Well, tell Me about that (seed) which you sow:
ﮛﮜﮝﮞﮟ ﰿ​

Is it you who grow it, or are We the One who grows?
ﮡﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ ﱀ​

If We so will, We can certainly make it crumbled, and you will remain wondering,
ﮨﮩ ﱁ​

(and saying,) “We are laden with debt,
ﮫﮬﮭ ﱂ​

rather we are totally deprived.”
ﮯﮰﮱﯓ ﱃ​

Again, tell Me about the water you drink:
ﯕﯖﯗﯘﯙﯚﯛ ﱄ​

Is it you who have brought it down from the clouds, or are We the One who sends (it) down?
ﯝﯞﯟﯠﯡﯢ ﱅ​

If We so will, We can make it bitter in taste. So why do you not offer gratitude?
ﯤﯥﯦﯧ ﱆ​

Now tell Me about the fire you kindle:
ﯩﯪﯫﯬﯭﯮ ﱇ​

Is it you who have originated its tree, 5 or are We the Originator?
ﯰﯱﯲﯳﯴ ﱈ​

We have made it a reminder (of Our infinite power, and of the fire of Hell) and a benefit for travelers in deserts.
ﯶﯷﯸﯹ ﱉ​

So, proclaim purity of the name of your Lord, the Magnificent.
ﯻﯼﯽﯾﯿ ﱊ​

So, I swear by the setting places of the stars,
ﰁﰂﰃﰄﰅ ﱋ​

-and indeed it is a great oath, if you are to appreciate-
ﭑﭒﭓ ﱌ​

it is surely the Noble Qur’ān,
ﭕﭖﭗ ﱍ​

(recorded already) in a protected book (i.e. the Preserved Tablet)
ﭙﭚﭛﭜ ﱎ​

that is not touched except by the purified ones (the angels).
ﭞﭟﭠﭡ ﱏ​

- a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
ﭣﭤﭥﭦ ﱐ​

Is it this discourse that you take lightly,
ﭨﭩﭪﭫ ﱑ​

and take your denial as your livelihood?
ﭭﭮﭯﭰ ﱒ​

So why (do you) not (intervene) when the soul (of a dying person) reaches the throat,
ﭲﭳﭴ ﱓ​

and you are watching?
ﭶﭷﭸﭹﭺﭻﭼ ﱔ​

And We are closer to him than you, but you do not perceive.
ﭾﭿﮀﮁﮂ ﱕ​

So, if you are not going to be recompensed (in the Hereafter for your deeds), then why do you not
ﮄﮅﮆﮇ ﱖ​

bring the soul back, if you are truthful?
ﮉﮊﮋﮌﮍ ﱗ​

So, in case he (the dying person) is from among those blessed with nearness,
ﮏﮐﮑﮒ ﱘ​

then (for him) there is comfort and fragrance and garden of bliss.
ﮔﮕﮖﮗﮘﮙ ﱙ​

And in case he is from among the People of the Right,
ﮛﮜﮝﮞﮟ ﱚ​

then, (it will be said to him,) “Peace is for you, as you are one of the People of the Right.”
ﮡﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ ﱛ​

But if he is one of the deniers, the astray,
ﮨﮩﮪ ﱜ​

then (for him) there is entertainment from boiling water,
ﮬﮭ ﱝ​

and burning in the Hell.
ﮯﮰﮱﯓﯔ ﱞ​

Indeed this is certainty in its true sense.
ﯖﯗﯘﯙ ﱟ​

So, proclaim purity of the name of your Lord, the Magnificent.
