--- |
|---|
| 44:1 | | Ha Mim |
| 44:2 | | I swear by the Book that makes manifest (the truth) |
| 44:3 | | Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning- |
| 44:4 | | Therein every wise affair is made distinct |
| 44:5 | | A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of messengers) |
| 44:6 | | A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing |
| 44:7 | | The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure |
| 44:8 | | There is no god but He; He gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore |
| 44:9 | | Nay, they are in doubt, they sport |
| 44:10 | | Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke |
| 44:11 | | That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment |
| 44:12 | | Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers |
| 44:13 | | How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Messenger making clear (the truth) |
| 44:14 | | Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman |
| 44:15 | | Surely We will remove the punishment a little, (but) you will surely return (to evil) |
| 44:16 | | On the day when We will seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely We will inflict retribution |
| 44:17 | | And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble messenger |
| 44:18 | | Saying: Deliver to me the servants of Allah, surely I am a faithful messenger to you |
| 44:19 | | And that do not exalt yourselves against Allah, surely I will bring to you a clear authority |
| 44:20 | | And surely I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord that you should stone me to death |
| 44:21 | | And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone |
| 44:22 | | Then he called upon his Lord: These are a guilty people |
| 44:23 | | So go forth with My servants by night; surely you will be pursued |
| 44:24 | | And leave the sea intervening; surely they are a host that shall be drowned |
| 44:25 | | How many of the gardens and fountains have they left |
| 44:26 | | And cornfields and noble places |
| 44:27 | | And goodly things wherein they rejoiced |
| 44:28 | | Thus (it was), and We gave them as a heritage to another people |
| 44:29 | | So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they respited |
| 44:30 | | And certainly We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing chastisement |
| 44:31 | | From Firon; surely he was haughty, (and) one of the extravagant |
| 44:32 | | And certainly We chose them, having knowledge, above the nations |
| 44:33 | | And We gave them of the communications wherein was clear blessing |
| 44:34 | | Most surely these do say |
| 44:35 | | There is naught but our first death and we shall not be raised again |
| 44:36 | | So bring our fathers (back), if you are truthful |
| 44:37 | | Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty |
| 44:38 | | And We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them in sport |
| 44:39 | | We did not create them both but with the truth, but most of them do not know |
| 44:40 | | Surely the day of separation is their appointed term, of all of the |
| 44:41 | | The day on which a friend shall not avail (his) friend aught, nor shall they be helped |
| 44:42 | | Save those on whom Allah shall have mercy; surely He is the Mighty the Merciful |
| 44:43 | | Surely the tree of the Zaqqum |
| 44:44 | | Is the food of the sinfu |
| 44:45 | | Like dregs of oil; it shall boil in (their) bellies |
| 44:46 | | Like the boiling of hot water |
| 44:47 | | Seize him, then drag him down into the middle of the hell |
| 44:48 | | Then pour above his head of the torment of the boiling water |
| 44:49 | | Taste; you forsooth are the mighty, the honorable |
| 44:50 | | Surely this is what you disputed about |
| 44:51 | | Surely those who guard (against evil) are in a secure place |
| 44:52 | | In gardens and springs |
| 44:53 | | They shall wear of fine and thick silk, (sitting) face to face |
| 44:54 | | Thus (shall it be), and We will wed them with Houris pure, beautiful ones |
| 44:55 | | They shall call therein for every fruit in security |
| 44:56 | | They shall not taste therein death except the first death, and He will save them from the punishment of the hell |
| 44:57 | | A grace from your Lord; this is the great achievement |
| 44:58 | | So have We made it easy in your tongue that they may be mindful |
| 44:59 | | Therefore wait; surely they are waiting |
