44:1  Ha-Meem. (These letters are one of the miracles of the Quran and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings)

44:2  By the manifest Book (this Quran) that makes things clear

44:3  We sent it (this Quran) down on a blessed night ((i.e. night of Qadr, Soorah No: 97) in the month of Ramadan,, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar). Verily, We are ever warning (mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship)

44:4  Therein (that night) is decreed every matter of ordainments

44:5  Amran (i.e. a Command or this Quran or the Decree of every matter) from Us. Verily, We are ever sending (the Messengers)

44:6  (As) a Mercy from your Lord. Verily! He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower

44:7  The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if you (but) have a faith with certainty

44:8  La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). It is He Who gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your fore-fathers

44:9  Nay! They play in doubt

44:10  Then wait you for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke

44:11  Covering the people, this is a painful torment

44:12  (They will say): "Our Lord! Remove the torment from us, really we shall become believers!"

44:13  How can there be for them an admonition (at the time when the torment has reached them), when a Messenger explaining things clearly has already come to them

44:14  Then they had turned away from him (Messenger Muhammad SAW) and said: "One (Muhammad SAW) taught (by a human being), a madman!"

44:15  Verily, We shall remove the torment for a while. Verily! You will revert

44:16  On the Day when We shall seize you with the greatest grasp. Verily, We will exact retribution

44:17  And indeed We tried before them Firauns (Pharaoh) people, when there came to them a noble Messenger (i.e. Moosa (Moses) )

44:18  Saying: "Restore to me the slaves of Allah (i.e. the Children of Israel). Verily! I am to you a Messenger worthy of all trust

44:19  "And exalt not (yourselves) against Allah. Truly, I have come to you with a manifest authority

44:20  "And truly, I seek refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me (or call me a sorcerer or kill me)

44:21  "But if you believe me not, then keep away from me and leave me alone."

44:22  (But they were aggressive), so he (Moosa (Moses)) called upon his Lord (saying): "These are indeed the people who are Mujrimoon (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.)."

44:23  (Allah said): "Depart you with My slaves by night. Surely, you will be pursued

44:24  "And leave the sea as it is (quiet and divided). Verily, They are a host to be drowned."

44:25  How many of gardens and springs do they (Firauns (Pharaoh) people) left

44:26  And green crops (fields etc.) and goodly places

44:27  And comforts of life wherein they used to take delight

44:28  Thus (it was)! And We made other people inherit them (i.e. We made the Children of Israel to inherit the kingdom of Egypt)

44:29  And the heavens and the earth wept not for them , nor were they given a respite

44:30  And indeed We saved the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment

44:31  From Firaun (Pharaoh); Verily! He was arrogant and was of the Musrifoon (those who transgress beyond bound in spending and other things and commit great sins)

44:32  And We chose them (the Children of Israel) above the Alameen (mankind, and jinns) (during the time of Moosa (Moses)) with knowledge

44:33  And granted them signs in which there was a plain trial

44:34  Verily, these (Quraish) people are saying

44:35  "There is nothing but our first death, and we shall not be resurrected

44:36  "Then bring back our fore-fathers, if you speak the truth!"

44:37  Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them because they were indeed Mujrimoon (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.)

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

44:39  We created them not except with truth (i.e. to examine and test those who are obedient and those who are disobedient and then reward the obedient ones and punish the disobedient ones), but most of them know not

44:40  Verily, the Day of Judgement (when Allah will judge between the creatures) is the time appointed for all of them

44:41  The Day when Maulan (a near relative) cannot avail Maulan (a near relative) in aught, and no help can they receive

44:42  Except him on whom Allah has Mercy. Verily, He is the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful

44:43  Verily, the tree of Zaqqoom

44:44  Will be the food of the sinners

44:45  Like boiling oil, it will boil in the bellies

44:46  Like the boiling of scalding water

44:47  (It will be said) "Seize him and drag him into the midst of blazing Fire

44:48  "Then pour over his head the torment of boiling water

44:49  "Taste you (this)! Verily, you were (pretending to be) the mighty, the generous

44:50  "Verily! This is that whereof you used to doubt!"

44:51  Verily! The Muttaqoon (pious - see V.2:2), will be in place of Security (Paradise)

44:52  Among Gardens and Springs

44:53  Dressed in fine silk and (also) in thick silk, facing each other

44:54  So (it will be), and We shall marry them to Houris (female fair ones) with wide, lovely eyes

44:55  They will call therein for every kind of fruit in peace and security

44:56  They will never taste death therein except the first death (of this world), and He will save them from the torment of the blazing Fire

44:57  As a Bounty from your Lord! That will be the supreme success

44:58  Certainly, We have made this (Quran) easy in your tongue, in order that they may remember

44:59  Wait then (O Muhammad SAW); Verily, they (too) are waiting
