at-Tur (The Mount, The Mountain) at IslamAwakened.com

52:1 By oath of (mount) Tur

52:2 And by oath of a passage, written

52:3 On an open record

52:4 And by oath of the Inhabited House

52:5 And the lofty roof

52:6 And the sea set aflame

52:7 Indeed your Lord’s punishment will surely take place

52:8 No one can avert it

52:9 A day on which the heavens will shake with a visible shaking

52:10 And the mountains will move with a visible movement

52:11 So on that day, ruin is for those who deny

52:12 Those who are playing in pursuits

52:13 A day when they will be pushed, forcibly shoved towards the fire of hell

52:14 “This is the fire, which you used to deny!”

52:15 “So is this magic, or are you unable to see?”

52:16 “Enter it – now whether you patiently bear it or are impatient - it is the same for you; for you is a recompense only for what you used to do.”

52:17 Indeed the pious are in Gardens and peace

52:18 Delighted at the bestowal of their Lord; and their Lord has saved them from the fire

52:19 “Eat and drink with pleasure, a reward for what you used to do.”

52:20 Reclining on thrones, in rows; and We have wedded them to maidens with gorgeous eyes

52:21 And those who accepted faith, and whose descendants followed them with faith - We have joined their descendants with them, and have not reduced anything for them from their deeds; every soul is trapped in its own deeds

52:22 And We aided them with fruit and meat, whatever they desire

52:23 In it, they accept cups from each other, in which is neither any lewdness nor any sin

52:24 And their boy servants shall go around them, as if they were pearls, safely hidden

52:25 And one of them turned towards the other, questioning

52:26 Saying, “Indeed before this, we were in our houses, worried.”

52:27 “So Allah did us a great favour, and saved us from the punishment of the flame.”

52:28 “Indeed we used to worship Him in our previous life; indeed He only is the Benign, the Most Merciful.”

52:29 Therefore (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), enlighten, for by the munificence of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer nor a madman

52:30 Or they allege, “He is a poet – we await a calamity of the times to befall him.”

52:31 Proclaim, “Go on waiting – I too am waiting along with you.”

52:32 Is this what their senses tell them, or are they a rebellious people

52:33 What! They say, “He has invented the Qur'an”? Rather they do not have faith

52:34 So let them bring a single discourse like it, if they are truthful

52:35 Have they not been created from some source, or are they themselves the creators

52:36 Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather they are not certain

52:37 Or do they have the treasures of your Lord, or are they the authority

52:38 Or do they have any stairs, climbing upon which they eavesdrop? So their eavesdropper should bring some clear proof

52:39 What! The daughters for Him, and the sons for you

52:40 Or do you (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him) ask any fee from them, so they are burdened with the penalty

52:41 Or is the hidden with them, by which they pass judgements

52:42 Or are they planning a conspiracy? So the conspiracy will befall only upon the disbelievers

52:43 Or do they have a God besides Allah? Purity is to Allah from their ascribing of partners to Him

52:44 And were they to see a portion of the sky falling, they will say, “It is a heap of clouds.”

52:45 Therefore leave them, until they confront their day, in which they will be stunned

52:46 A day on which their scheming will not benefit them at all, nor will they be helped

52:47 And indeed for the unjust is another punishment before this, but most of them do not know. (Punishment in the grave is proven by this verse.

52:48 And be patient upon your Lord’s command, (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), for you are indeed in Our sight; and proclaim the Purity of your Lord while praising Him, whenever you stand

52:49 And proclaim His Purity during the night, and when the stars turn back
