Quran 44, Ad-Dukhan (Smoke) ⓘ

44:1Ha. Mim.

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ حم

44:2By the Scripture that maketh plain

وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ

44:3Lo! We revealed it on a blessed night - Lo! We are ever warning -

إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُبَارَكَةٍ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنْذِرِينَ

44:4Whereon every wise command is made clear

فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ

44:5As a command from Our presence - Lo! We are ever sending -

أَمْرًا مِنْ عِنْدِنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ

44:6A mercy from thy Lord. Lo! He, even He is the Hearer, the Knower,

رَحْمَةً مِنْ رَبِّكَ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

44:7Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if ye would be sure.

رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُوقِنِينَ

44:8There is no Allah save Him. He quickeneth and giveth death; your Lord and Lord of your forefathers.

لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ

44:9Nay, but they play in doubt.

بَلْ هُمْ فِي شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ

44:10But watch thou (O Muhammad) for the day when the sky will produce visible smoke

فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ

44:11That will envelop the people. This will be a painful torment.

يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

44:12(Then they will say): Our Lord relieve us of the torment. Lo! we are believers.

رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ

44:13How can there be remembrance for them, when a messenger making plain (the Truth) had already come unto them,

أَنَّى لَهُمُ الذِّكْرَى وَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُبِينٌ

44:14And they had turned away from him and said: One taught (by others), a madman?

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَجْنُونٌ

44:15Lo! We withdraw the torment a little. Lo! ye return (to disbelief).

إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ

44:16On the day when We shall seize them with the greater seizure, (then) in truth We shall punish.

يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَى إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ

44:17And verily We tried before them Pharaoh's folk, when there came unto them a noble messenger,

وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ كَرِيمٌ

44:18Saying: Give up to me the slaves of Allah. Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you.

أَنْ أَدُّوا إِلَيَّ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ

44:19And saying: Be not proud against Allah. Lo! I bring you a clear warrant.

وَأَنْ لَا تَعْلُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ إِنِّي آتِيكُمْ بِسُلْطَانٍ مُبِينٍ

44:20And lo! I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord lest ye stone me to death.

وَإِنِّي عُذْتُ بِرَبِّي وَرَبِّكُمْ أَنْ تَرْجُمُونِ

44:21And if ye put no faith in me, then let me go.

وَإِنْ لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا لِي فَاعْتَزِلُونِ

44:22And he cried unto his Lord, (saying): These are guilty folk.

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمٌ مُجْرِمُونَ

44:23Then (his Lord commanded): Take away My slaves by night. Lo! ye will be followed,

فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي لَيْلًا إِنَّكُمْ مُتَّبَعُونَ

44:24And leave the sea behind at rest, for lo! they are a drowned host.

وَاتْرُكِ الْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا إِنَّهُمْ جُنْدٌ مُغْرَقُونَ

44:25How many were the gardens and the watersprings that they left behind,

كَمْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ

44:26And the cornlands and the goodly sites

وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ

44:27And pleasant things wherein they took delight!

وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا فِيهَا فَاكِهِينَ

44:28Even so (it was), and We made it an inheritance for other folk;

كَذَلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا قَوْمًا آخَرِينَ

44:29And the heaven and the earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.

فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّمَاءُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنْظَرِينَ

44:30And We delivered the Children of Israel from the shameful doom;

وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ

44:31(We delivered them) from Pharaoh. Lo! he was a tyrant of the wanton ones.

مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِنَ الْمُسْرِفِينَ

44:32And We chose them, purposely, above (all) creatures.

وَلَقَدِ اخْتَرْنَاهُمْ عَلَى عِلْمٍ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ

44:33And We gave them portents wherein was a clear trial.

وَآتَيْنَاهُمْ مِنَ الْآيَاتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَاءٌ مُبِينٌ

44:34Lo! these, forsooth, are saying:

إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ لَيَقُولُونَ

44:35There is naught but our first death, and we shall not be raised again.

إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا الْأُولَى وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنْشَرِينَ

44:36Bring back our fathers, if ye speak the truth!

فَأْتُوا بِآبَائِنَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ

44:37Are they better, or the folk of Tubb'a and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.

أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ أَهْلَكْنَاهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُجْرِمِينَ

44:38And We created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, in play.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِبِينَ

44:39We created them not save with truth; but most of them know not.

مَا خَلَقْنَاهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

44:40Assuredly the Day of Decision is the term for all of them,

إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ مِيقَاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

44:41A day when friend can in naught avail friend, nor can they be helped,

يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي مَوْلًى عَنْ مَوْلًى شَيْئًا وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ

44:42Save him on whom Allah hath mercy. Lo! He is the Mighty, the Merciful.

إِلَّا مَنْ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ

44:43Lo! the tree of Zaqqum,

إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ الزَّقُّومِ

44:44The food of the sinner!

طَعَامُ الْأَثِيمِ

44:45Like molten brass, it seetheth in their bellies

كَالْمُهْلِ يَغْلِي فِي الْبُطُونِ

44:46As the seething of boiling water.

كَغَلْيِ الْحَمِيمِ

44:47(And it will be said): Take him and drag him to the midst of hell,

خُذُوهُ فَاعْتِلُوهُ إِلَى سَوَاءِ الْجَحِيمِ

44:48Then pour upon his head the torment of boiling water.

ثُمَّ صُبُّوا فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْحَمِيمِ

44:49(Saying): Taste! Lo! thou wast forsooth the mighty, the noble!

ذُقْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْكَرِيمُ

44:50Lo! this is that whereof ye used to doubt.

إِنَّ هَذَا مَا كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تَمْتَرُونَ

44:51Lo! those who kept their duty will be in a place secured.

إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي مَقَامٍ أَمِينٍ

44:52Amid gardens and watersprings,

فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ

44:53Attired in silk and silk embroidery, facing one another.

يَلْبَسُونَ مِنْ سُنْدُسٍ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍ مُتَقَابِلِينَ

44:54Even so (it will be). And We shall wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes.

كَذَلِكَ وَزَوَّجْنَاهُمْ بِحُورٍ عِينٍ

44:55They call therein for every fruit in safety.

يَدْعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَاكِهَةٍ آمِنِينَ

44:56They taste not death therein, save the first death. And He hath saved them from the doom of hell,

لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا الْمَوْتَ إِلَّا الْمَوْتَةَ الْأُولَى وَوَقَاهُمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِيمِ

44:57A bounty from thy Lord. That is the supreme triumph.

فَضْلًا مِنْ رَبِّكَ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ

44:58And We have made (this Scripture) easy in thy language only that they may heed.

فَإِنَّمَا يَسَّرْنَاهُ بِلِسَانِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ

44:59Wait then (O Muhammad). Lo! they (too) are waiting.

فَارْتَقِبْ إِنَّهُمْ مُرْتَقِبُونَ
