| 50:1 | | Q, and the Qur'an of glory. |
| 50:2 | | Are they surprised that a warner has come to them from amongst them, so the rejecters said: "This is something strange!" |
| 50:3 | | "Can it be that when we are dead and we become dust, that we come back later?" |
| 50:4 | | We know which of them has become consumed with the earth; and We have with Us a record which keeps track. |
| 50:5 | | But they denied the truth when it came to them, so they are in a confused state. |
| 50:6 | | Did they not look to the heaven above them, how We built it, and adorned it, and how it has no openings? |
| 50:7 | | And the land We extended it, and placed in it stabilizers, and We gave growth in it to every kind of healthy pair. |
| 50:8 | | Something to see and a reminder for every pious servant. |
| 50:9 | | And We sent down from the sky blessed water, and We gave growth with it to gardens and grain that is harvested. |
| 50:10 | | And the palm trees, emerging with clustering fruit. |
| 50:11 | | A provision for the servants, and We gave life with it to the land which was dead. Such is the resurrection. |
| 50:12 | | Before their denial was that of the people of Noah, and the dwellers of Al-Raas, and Thamud. |
| 50:13 | | And 'Aad, and Pharaoh, and the brethren of Lot. |
| 50:14 | | And the people of the Sycamore, and the people of Tubba`. All of them disbelieved the messengers, so the promise came to pass. |
| 50:15 | | Did We have any difficulty in making the first creation? No, they are in confusion about the next creation. |
| 50:16 | | And We have created man and We know what his soul whispers to him, and We are closer to him than his jugular vein. |
| 50:17 | | When the two receivers meet on the right and on the left. |
| 50:18 | | He does not utter a word except a watcher is constantly with him. |
| 50:19 | | And the moment of death came with truth: "This is what you have been trying to avoid!" |
| 50:20 | | And the horn is blown on the promised Day. |
| 50:21 | | And every soul is brought, being driven, and with a witness. |
| 50:22 | | "You were heedless of this, so now We have removed your veil, and your sight today is iron!" |
| 50:23 | | And his associate said: "Here is one who is a transgressor. |
| 50:24 | | "Cast in Hell every stubborn rejecter. |
| 50:25 | | "Denier of good, transgressor, doubter." |
| 50:26 | | "The one who has set up with God another god; so cast him into the severe retribution." |
| 50:27 | | His associate said: "Our Lord, I did not corrupt him, but he was already far astray." |
| 50:28 | | He said: "Do not argue with each other before Me, I have already presented you with My promise." |
| 50:29 | | "The sentence will not be changed with Me, and I do not wrong the servants. |
| 50:30 | | The Day We say to Hell: "Are you full?" And it says: "Is there not more?" |
| 50:31 | | And the Paradise is brought near to the righteous, not far off. |
| 50:32 | | This is what you have been promised, for every obedient, steadfast |
| 50:33 | | Who is concerned towards the Almighty while unseen, and came with a repenting heart |
| 50:34 | | Enter it in peace. This is the Day of eternal life |
| 50:35 | | In it they will have what they wish, and We have even more. |
| 50:36 | | And how many a generation before them have We destroyed? They were stronger in power, and they had dominated the land. Did they find any refuge? |
| 50:37 | | In that is a reminder for whoever has a heart, or cares to listen while he is heedful. |
| 50:38 | | And We have created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six days, and no fatigue touched Us. |
| 50:39 | | So be patient to what they are saying, and glorify the grace of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before the setting. |
| 50:40 | | And from the night glorify Him, and after prostrating. |
| 50:41 | | And listen to the Day when the caller will call from a near place. |
| 50:42 | | The Day they hear the scream with the truth. That is the Day of coming out. |
| 50:43 | | We are the Ones who give life and bring death, and to Us is the destiny. |
| 50:44 | | The Day when the earth will rapidly crumble away from them; that will be a gathering which is easy for Us. |
| 50:45 | | We are fully aware of what they say; and you are not a tyrant over them. So remind with the Qur'an those who fear My promise. |
