الذاريات

وَٱلذَّٰرِيَـٰتِ ذَرْوًۭا

wal-dhāriyāti dharwan

By the [winds] scattering [dust], dispersing [it]

فَٱلْحَـٰمِلَـٰتِ وِقْرًۭا

fal-ḥāmilāti wiq'ran

And the [clouds] carrying a load [of water]

فَٱلْجَـٰرِيَـٰتِ يُسْرًۭا

fal-jāriyāti yus'ran

And the ships sailing with ease

فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَـٰتِ أَمْرًا

fal-muqasimāti amran

And the [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌۭ

innamā tūʿadūna laṣādiqun

Indeed, what you are promised is true.

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ

wa-inna l-dīna lawāqiʿun

And indeed, the recompense is to occur.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ

wal-samāi dhāti l-ḥubuki

By the heaven containing pathways,

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍۢ مُّخْتَلِفٍۢ

innakum lafī qawlin mukh'talifin

Indeed, you are in differing speech.

يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ

yu'faku ʿanhu man ufika

Deluded away from it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is he who is deluded.

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ

qutila l-kharāṣūna

Destroyed are the misinformers

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍۢ سَاهُونَ

alladhīna hum fī ghamratin sāhūna

Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ

yasalūna ayyāna yawmu l-dīni

They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ

yawma hum ʿalā l-nāri yuf'tanūna

[It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire.

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

dhūqū fit'natakum hādhā alladhī kuntum bihi tastaʿjilūna

[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّـٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍ

inna l-mutaqīna fī jannātin waʿuyūnin

Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ

ākhidhīna mā ātāhum rabbuhum innahum kānū qabla dhālika muḥ'sinīna

Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ

kānū qalīlan mina al-layli mā yahjaʿūna

They used to sleep but little of the night,

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ

wabil-asḥāri hum yastaghfirūna

And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ

wafī amwālihim ḥaqqun lilssāili wal-maḥrūmi

And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَـٰتٌۭ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ

wafī l-arḍi āyātun lil'mūqinīna

And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ

wafī anfusikum afalā tub'ṣirūna

And in yourselves. Then will you not see?

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ

wafī l-samāi riz'qukum wamā tūʿadūna

And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ

fawarabbi l-samāi wal-arḍi innahu laḥaqqun mith'la mā annakum tanṭiqūna

Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ

hal atāka ḥadīthu ḍayfi ib'rāhīma l-muk'ramīna

Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? -

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَـٰمًۭا ۖ قَالَ سَلَـٰمٌۭ قَوْمٌۭ مُّنكَرُونَ

idh dakhalū ʿalayhi faqālū salāman qāla salāmun qawmun munkarūna

When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace; [you are] a people unknown."

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍۢ سَمِينٍۢ

farāgha ilā ahlihi fajāa biʿij'lin samīnin

Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf.

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ

faqarrabahu ilayhim qāla alā takulūna

And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَـٰمٍ عَلِيمٍۢ

fa-awjasa min'hum khīfatan qālū lā takhaf wabasharūhu bighulāmin ʿalīmin

And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍۢ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌۭ

fa-aqbalati im'ra-atuhu fī ṣarratin faṣakkat wajhahā waqālat ʿajūzun ʿaqīmun

And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

qālū kadhāliki qāla rabbuki innahu huwa l-ḥakīmu l-ʿalīmu

They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."

۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ

qāla famā khaṭbukum ayyuhā l-mur'salūna

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍۢ مُّجْرِمِينَ

qālū innā ur'sil'nā ilā qawmin muj'rimīna

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن طِينٍۢ

linur'sila ʿalayhim ḥijāratan min ṭīnin

To send down upon them stones of clay,

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ

musawwamatan ʿinda rabbika lil'mus'rifīna

Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

fa-akhrajnā man kāna fīhā mina l-mu'minīna

So We brought out whoever was in them [i.e., the cities] of the believers.

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ

famā wajadnā fīhā ghayra baytin mina l-mus'limīna

And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ

wataraknā fīhā āyatan lilladhīna yakhāfūna l-ʿadhāba l-alīma

And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَـٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ

wafī mūsā idh arsalnāhu ilā fir'ʿawna bisul'ṭānin mubīnin

And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَـٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌۭ

fatawallā biruk'nihi waqāla sāḥirun aw majnūnun

But he turned away with his supporters and said, "A magician or a madman."

فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ

fa-akhadhnāhu wajunūdahu fanabadhnāhum fī l-yami wahuwa mulīmun

So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ

wafī ʿādin idh arsalnā ʿalayhimu l-rīḥa l-ʿaqīma

And in ʿAad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ

mā tadharu min shayin atat ʿalayhi illā jaʿalathu kal-ramīmi

It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ

wafī thamūda idh qīla lahum tamattaʿū ḥattā ḥīnin

And in Thamūd, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time."

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّـٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ

faʿataw ʿan amri rabbihim fa-akhadhathumu l-ṣāʿiqatu wahum yanẓurūna

But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَـٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍۢ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ

famā is'taṭāʿū min qiyāmin wamā kānū muntaṣirīna

And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًۭا فَـٰسِقِينَ

waqawma nūḥin min qablu innahum kānū qawman fāsiqīna

And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ

wal-samāa banaynāhā bi-aydin wa-innā lamūsiʿūna

And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَـٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَـٰهِدُونَ

wal-arḍa farashnāhā faniʿ'ma l-māhidūna

And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ

wamin kulli shayin khalaqnā zawjayni laʿallakum tadhakkarūna

And of all things We created two mates [i.e., counterparts]; perhaps you will remember.

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ

fafirrū ilā l-lahi innī lakum min'hu nadhīrun mubīnun

So flee to Allāh. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ

walā tajʿalū maʿa l-lahi ilāhan ākhara innī lakum min'hu nadhīrun mubīnun

And do not make [as equal] with Allāh another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ

kadhālika mā atā alladhīna min qablihim min rasūlin illā qālū sāḥirun aw majnūnun

Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman."

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ

atawāṣaw bihi bal hum qawmun ṭāghūna

Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍۢ

fatawalla ʿanhum famā anta bimalūmin

So leave them, [O Muḥammad], for you are not to be blamed.

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

wadhakkir fa-inna l-dhik'rā tanfaʿu l-mu'minīna

And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ

wamā khalaqtu l-jina wal-insa illā liyaʿbudūni

And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍۢ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ

mā urīdu min'hum min riz'qin wamā urīdu an yuṭ'ʿimūni

I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ

inna l-laha huwa l-razāqu dhū l-quwati l-matīnu

Indeed, it is Allāh who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًۭا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَـٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ

fa-inna lilladhīna ẓalamū dhanūban mith'la dhanūbi aṣḥābihim falā yastaʿjilūni

And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their companions [i.e., predecessors], so let them not impatiently urge Me.

فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ

fawaylun lilladhīna kafarū min yawmihimu alladhī yūʿadūna

And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.
