Al-Haqqah


The Reality!
ﮱﯓ ﰁ​

What is the Reality?
ﯕﯖﯗﯘ ﰂ​

Ah, what will convey unto thee what the reality is!
ﯚﯛﯜﯝ ﰃ​

(The tribes of) Thamud and A'ad disbelieved in the judgment to come.
ﯟﯠﯡﯢ ﰄ​

As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the lightning.
ﯤﯥﯦﯧﯨﯩ ﰅ​

And as for A'ad, they were destroyed by a fierce roaring wind,
ﯫﯬﯭﯮﯯﯰﯱﯲﯳﯴﯵﯶﯷﯸﯹﯺ ﰆ​

Which He imposed on them for seven long nights and eight long days so that thou mightest have seen men lying overthrown, as they were hollow trunks of palm-trees.
ﯼﯽﯾﯿﰀ ﰇ​

Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them?
ﭑﭒﭓﭔﭕﭖ ﰈ​

And Pharaoh and those before him, and the communities that were destroyed, brought error,
ﭘﭙﭚﭛﭜﭝ ﰉ​

And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, therefor did He grip them with a tightening grip.
ﭟﭠﭡﭢﭣﭤﭥ ﰊ​

Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the ship
ﭧﭨﭩﭪﭫﭬ ﰋ​

That We might make it a memorial for you, and that remembering ears (that heard the story) might remember.
ﭮﭯﭰﭱﭲﭳ ﰌ​

And when the trumpet shall sound one blast
ﭵﭶﭷﭸﭹﭺ ﰍ​

And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
ﭼﭽﭾ ﰎ​

Then, on that day will the Event befall.
ﮀﮁﮂﮃﮄ ﰏ​

And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.
ﮆﮇﮈﮉﮊﮋﮌﮍﮎﮏ ﰐ​

And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne of thy Lord that day, above them.
ﮑﮒﮓﮔﮕﮖ ﰑ​

On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden.
ﮘﮙﮚﮛﮜﮝﮞﮟﮠ ﰒ​

Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book!
ﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ ﰓ​

Surely I knew that I should have to meet my reckoning.
ﮨﮩﮪﮫ ﰔ​

Then he will be in blissful state
ﮭﮮﮯ ﰕ​

In a high garden
ﮱﯓ ﰖ​

Whereof the clusters are in easy reach.
ﯕﯖﯗﯘﯙﯚﯛﯜ ﰗ​

(And it will be said unto those therein): Eat and drink at ease for that which ye sent on before you in past days.
ﯞﯟﯠﯡﯢﯣﯤﯥﯦﯧ ﰘ​

But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say: Oh, would that I had not been given my book
ﯩﯪﯫﯬ ﰙ​

And knew not what my reckoning!
ﯮﯯﯰ ﰚ​

Oh, would that it had been death!
ﯲﯳﯴﯵﯶ ﰛ​

My wealth hath not availed me,
ﯸﯹﯺ ﰜ​

My power hath gone from me.
ﯼﯽ ﰝ​

(It will be said): Take him and fetter him
ﯿﰀﰁ ﰞ​

And then expose him to hell-fire
ﰃﰄﰅﰆﰇﰈﰉ ﰟ​

And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits.
ﰋﰌﰍﰎﰏﰐ ﰠ​

Lo! He used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous,
ﰒﰓﰔﰕﰖ ﰡ​

And urged not on the feeding of the wretched.
ﰘﰙﰚﰛﰜ ﰢ​

Therefor hath he no lover here this day,
ﭑﭒﭓﭔﭕ ﰣ​

Nor any food save filth
ﭗﭘﭙﭚ ﰤ​

Which none but sinners eat.
ﭜﭝﭞﭟ ﰥ​

But nay! I swear by all that ye see
ﭡﭢﭣ ﰦ​

And all that ye see not
ﭥﭦﭧﭨ ﰧ​

That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
ﭪﭫﭬﭭﭮﭯﭰﭱ ﰨ​

It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe!
ﭳﭴﭵﭶﭷﭸﭹ ﰩ​

Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember!
ﭻﭼﭽﭾ ﰪ​

It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
ﮀﮁﮂﮃﮄ ﰫ​

And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
ﮆﮇﮈ ﰬ​

We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
ﮊﮋﮌﮍ ﰭ​

And then severed his life-artery,
ﮏﮐﮑﮒﮓﮔ ﰮ​

And not one of you could have held Us off from him.
ﮖﮗﮘ ﰯ​

And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).
ﮚﮛﮜﮝﮞ ﰰ​

And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).
ﮠﮡﮢﮣ ﰱ​

And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.
ﮥﮦﮧ ﰲ​

And lo! it is absolute truth.
ﮩﮪﮫﮬ ﰳ​

So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord.
