| 44:1 | | Ha-Mim. |
| 44:2 | | By this luminous Book. |
| 44:3 | | Undoubtedly We sent it down in a blessed night; verily We are to warn. |
| 44:4 | | Therein every affair of wisdom is divided. |
| 44:5 | | A command from Us, Verily, We are to send. |
| 44:6 | | A mercy from your Lord, undoubtedly, He, Hears, knows. |
| 44:7 | | He Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatsoever is in between if you are convinced. |
| 44:8 | | None is to be worshipped but He. He gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers. |
| 44:9 | | Nay, but they are in doubt, playing. |
| 44:10 | | Therefore, wait you the day when the sky will bring a clear smoke, |
| 44:11 | | That it shall cover the people. This is a painful torment. |
| 44:12 | | They will say that day, 'O our Lord! Remove from us the torment, We believe'. |
| 44:13 | | Whence they are to accept admonition, whereas there has already come a clear Messenger. |
| 44:14 | | Then they turned away from him and said, 'He is tutored, madman'. |
| 44:15 | | We let loose the torment for sometime, you will again do the same. |
| 44:16 | | The day when We will seize the greatest seizing, verily We are to take vengeance. |
| 44:17 | | And undoubtedly, We tested the people of Firawn before them, and an honourable Messenger came to them. |
| 44:18 | | Saying, 'hand over to me the bondmen of Allah. Verily I am a trusted Messenger for you'. |
| 44:19 | | Rise not up against Allah I bring to you a clear authority. |
| 44:20 | | I take refuge of my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me. |
| 44:21 | | And if you believe not in me, go you apart from me. |
| 44:22 | | Then he called upon his Lord, these are guilty people. |
| 44:23 | | We commanded that go forth with My bondmen necessarily, you shall be followed. |
| 44:24 | | And leave you the river open from place to place, undoubtedly the host shall be drowned. |
| 44:25 | | How many gardens and springs, they left behind. |
| 44:26 | | And cornfields and nice houses. |
| 44:27 | | And comforts wherein they were free from care. |
| 44:28 | | We did thus, and We made another people to inherit them. |
| 44:29 | | And the heavens and the earth did not shed tears for them, nor were they given respite. |
| 44:30 | | And undoubtedly, We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing torment. |
| 44:31 | | From Firawn, he was surely haughty and of the extravagant. |
| 44:32 | | And undoubtedly, We chose them knowingly from among the people of that time |
| 44:33 | | And We bestowed them the signs wherein there was clear reward. |
| 44:34 | | These men do say, |
| 44:35 | | 'That is not but our first death and we shall not be raised? |
| 44:36 | | Bring back then, our fathers if you are truthful. |
| 44:37 | | Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them whom We destroyed? Verily they were culprits. |
| 44:38 | | And We made not the heavens and the earth and whatsoever is in between them in play. |
| 44:39 | | We made not them but with truth, but most of them know not. |
| 44:40 | | Undoubtedly, the Day of Judgement is the term appointed for all of them. |
| 44:41 | | The day when a friend shall not avail a friend at all and nor they shall be helped. |
| 44:42 | | Save those on whom Allah has mercy. Undoubtedly He is the Honourable, the Merciful. |
| 44:43 | | Verily the tree of Zaqqqum (Cactus) |
| 44:44 | | Is the food of the sinners. |
| 44:45 | | Like molten copper bubbles in the bellies. |
| 44:46 | | As boiling water bubbles. |
| 44:47 | | Seize him and drag him forcibly towards the center of the blazing fire. |
| 44:48 | | 'Then pour over his head the torment of boiling water.' |
| 44:49 | | Taste it, Yes, certainly you are the Honourable, the benignant. |
| 44:50 | | Undoubtedly, it is in which you were doubting |
| 44:51 | | Undoubtedly, the God fearing is in a place of security. |
| 44:52 | | In the gardens and springs. |
| 44:53 | | They shall wear fine silk and brocade facing one another. |
| 44:54 | | Thus it is, and We got them married to black and bright large eyed maidens. |
| 44:55 | | They will ask for therein every kind of fruit in peace and security. |
| 44:56 | | They will not taste death therein, other than the first death, and Allah saved them from the torment of the fire. |
| 44:57 | | By the grace of your Lord. This is the supreme victory. |
| 44:58 | | And We have made this Quran easy in your tongue so that they may understand. |
| 44:59 | | So, wait you. they too are waiting |
