Ad-Dukhan


(44:1) Ha'. Mim.

(44:2) By the Clear Book.

(44:3) We revealed it on a Blessed Night, for We were intent on warning;1

(44:4) (We revealed it on the Night) wherein every matter is wisely determined2

(44:5) by Our command.3 Verily, We were set to send a Messenger

(44:6) as a Mercy from your Lord.4 Surely He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing,5

(44:7) the Lord of the heavens and the earth and of all that is between them:
if you would only have sure faith.6

(44:8) There is no god but He:7 He gives life and causes death.8
He is your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers of yore.9

(44:9) (But the fact is, they lack certainty) and frolic about in doubt.0

(44:10) So watch for the Day when the sky will come down with a pall of smoke,

(44:11) enveloping people. That will be a grievous scourge.

(44:12) (People will then say): “Our Lord, remove this scourge from us; we
shall believe.”

(44:13) But how will they take heed? Such are they that a Messenger1
came to them clearly expounding the Truth,

(44:14) yet they turned away from him and said: “This is a well-tutored madman.”2

(44:15) Yet We will hold the scourge back for a while, (but no sooner than
We will do so) you will revert to your old ways.

(44:16) The Day when We shall seize them with a mighty seizing, that will
be the Day on which We shall inflict upon you full retribution.3

(44:17) Indeed before that We subjected the Pharaonites to the same test.
A noble Messenger4 came to them

(44:18) (and said):5 “Deliver to me Allah's servants.6
I am a trustworthy Messenger to you,7

(44:19) and do not exalt yourselves in defiance of Allah. I have come to
you with a clear authority8 (as a Messenger).

(44:20) I have taken refuge with my Lord and your Lord lest you should attack
me with stones.

(44:21) But if you do not believe what I say, leave me alone9
(and desist from laying hands on me).”

(44:22) Then he called upon his Lord: “These are a criminal people.”0

(44:23) (He was told): “Set out with My servants by night1 for
you will certainly be pursued.2

(44:24) And leave the sea behind you as calm as ever. Surely they are an
army that is doomed to be drowned.”3

(44:25) How many gardens did they leave behind, and how many fountains

(44:26) and sown fields and splendid mansions,

(44:27) and the life of ease in which they took delight!

(44:28) Thus it was; and We made another people inherit all that.4

(44:29) Then neither the sky shed tears over them nor the earth.5
They were granted no respite.

(44:30) Thus did We deliver the Children of Israel from the humiliating chastisement,

(44:31) from Pharaoh6 who was most prominent among the prodigals.7

(44:32) We knowingly exalted them (i.e., the Children of Israel) above other
peoples of the world8

(44:33) and bestowed upon them the Signs wherein lay an evident test for
them.9

(44:34) Indeed these people say:

(44:35) “This is our first and only death, and we shall never be raised again.0

(44:36) Bring back to us our fathers if you are truthful.”1

(44:37) Are these better or the people of Tubba2 and those who
went before them? We destroyed them for they were a criminal people.3

(44:38) It was not in idle sport that We created the heavens and the earth
and all that is between them.

(44:39) We did not create them except in Truth. But most of them do not know.4

(44:40) The Day of Final Decision is the appointed time for all;5

(44:41) the Day when a friend shall be of no avail to his friend6
nor shall they be helped,

(44:42) except those to whom Allah shows mercy. He is the Most Mighty, the
Most Compassionate.7

(44:43) The tree of al-Zaqqum8

(44:44) shall be the food of the sinful.

(44:45) Like dregs of oil,9 it will boil in their bellies

(44:46) like boiling water.

(44:47) “Seize him and drag him to the middle of the Blazing Fire,

(44:48) then pour boiling water over his head as chastisement.

(44:49) Taste this, you are a person mighty and noble!

(44:50) This is what you used to doubt.”

(44:51) Verily the God-fearing shall be in a secure place0

(44:52) amidst gardens and springs.

(44:53) Attired in silk and brocade,1 they shall be arrayed face
to face.

(44:54) Thus shall it be: and We shall espouse them to fair, wide-eyed maidens.2

(44:55) While resting in security, they shall call for all kinds of fruit.3

(44:56) They shall not taste death except the death in this world. And Allah
will save them from the chastisement of Hell4

(44:57) as a favour from your Lord. That is the great triumph.

(44:58) (O Prophet), We have made this Book easy in your tongue so that they
may take heed.

(44:59) Wait, then; they too are waiting.5
