| | Faridul Haque rendition of Surah The Mount, The Mountain(at-Tur)
--- |
|---|
| 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!&rdquo |
| 52:15 | | “So is this magic, or are you unable to see?&rdquo |
| 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.&rdquo |
| 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.&rdquo |
| 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.&rdquo |
| 52:27 | | “So Allah did us a great favour, and saved us from the punishment of the flame.&rdquo |
| 52:28 | | “Indeed we used to worship Him in our previous life; indeed He only is the Benign, the Most Merciful.&rdquo |
| 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.&rdquo |
| 52:31 | | Proclaim, “Go on waiting – I too am waiting along with you.&rdquo |
| 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.&rdquo |
| 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 |
