| | Dr. Kamal Omar rendition of Surah The Mount, The Mountain(at-Tur)
--- |
|---|
| 52:1 | | The Mount acts as a witness |
| 52:2 | | (The) Book written in straight lines acts as a witness |
| 52:3 | | on wide pieces of parchment-paper |
| 52:4 | | ‘Always being visited’ House (The Kaba) acts as a witness |
| 52:5 | | The elevated roof (as Heaven) acts as a witness |
| 52:6 | | The sea in high tides acts as a witness |
| 52:7 | | Surely, the torment coming from your Nourisher-Sustainer is about to occur without any doubt |
| 52:8 | | (There is) not unto it any who can avert |
| 52:9 | | The Day the heaven trembles in a dreadful shahead of state |
| 52:10 | | and the mountains slide away in a swift movement |
| 52:11 | | Then woe that Day for the deniers — |
| 52:12 | | those: they sport and play in senseless items |
| 52:13 | | The Day they are pushed down to the Fire of Hell, pushing down with full force |
| 52:14 | | This is the Fire which you used to deny |
| 52:15 | | Is this then magic ? Or you people do not see (the reality) |
| 52:16 | | Slide you therein. Then (whether) you show patience or you do not show patience — (it is the) same to you. Surely what (is a fact is that) you will be rewarded what you had been doing |
| 52:17 | | Verily, the Muttaqun will be in Gardens and Bliss |
| 52:18 | | as those who enjoy with what their Nourisher-Sustainer has provided them; and their Nourisher-Sustainer has saved them from the torment of the blazing Fire |
| 52:19 | | Eat and drink Haniyan (in full happiness) because of what you used to do (in your worldly life) — |
| 52:20 | | recliners on couches arranged in rows; and We provided them the company of Hurin Eenin |
| 52:21 | | And those who have Believed and whose offspring followed them with Faith We did join to these their offspring; and We did not nullify from their deed any thing. Every individual, for what he has earned (in his worldly life,is) mortgaged |
| 52:22 | | And We provided them assistance in (getting) fruits and meat, such as they desire |
| 52:23 | | Therein they shall toast the cup (showing their attachment to one another); there shall be no Laghw [dirty, bad or intoxicating (-effect thereof)] therein; and nor Tasim (a sinful act) |
| 52:24 | | And there will move all around them youthful boys reserved for them — as if they are pearls guarded and preserved |
| 52:25 | | And some of them came directly in front of some others; they would question one another |
| 52:26 | | They said: “Verily, we used to be, aforetime, among our family-members and followers as those who were always conscious of the position (of Allah) |
| 52:27 | | So Allah showered grace on us, and He saved us from the torment of an extremely hot atmosphere |
| 52:28 | | Verily we, we used to call Him aforetime (in our needs and in our regular Prayers). Surely He: He is Al-Barr (The Most Generous, The Most Kind), the continuously Merciful |
| 52:29 | | So propagate the Message. So, by the Grace of your Nourisher-Sustainer you are not a clairvoyant, and nor a fanatic |
| 52:30 | | Or do they say: “ Is he a poet? We await doubt and suspicion which people will have about the Divine‘good and grace’ (which some relate to his person).” |
| 52:31 | | Say: “Wait. Then surely I am with you being out of those who await.” |
| 52:32 | | Do their delusions command them for this, or they are a nation of those who exceed the bounds |
| 52:33 | | Or do they say: “He (who is propagating the Book) has (himself) uttered it (i.e., he himself is its producer and author)?” Nay, they (actually) develop not Faith (in Allah’s Book) |
| 52:34 | | Let them then come with Hadees like unto it if they happened to be those who speak the truth |
| 52:35 | | Have they been created out of nothing, or they themselves (are) the creators |
| 52:36 | | Or have they created the heavens and the earth? Nay! They develop not the certainty in Faith |
| 52:37 | | Or, are with them treasures of your Nourisher-Sustainer, or are they the keepers (controllers thereof) |
| 52:38 | | Or, for them is a receiver they listen to therein (the secret signals of the heavenly administration)? Then let their listener approach with evident power |
| 52:39 | | Or, for Him the daughters and for you the sons |
| 52:40 | | Do you ask them for a reward, so they with a load of debt are burdened people |
| 52:41 | | Or, with them (under their surveilance is) Al-ghaib (the unseen), so they record it down |
| 52:42 | | Or, they intend a plan? Rather those who have disbelieved: they (themselves are) those who are encircled and caught in a stratagem |
| 52:43 | | Or, for them is an ilah other than Allah? Be Allah glorified against what they ascribe as partners (to Him) |
| 52:44 | | And if they watch a piece as one falling down from towards the sky, they will say: “Clouds, piled-up!” |
| 52:45 | | So leave them till they meet their Day — that (one) wherein they will be over-taken by a thunder bolt |
| 52:46 | | (That) Day their plotting does not benefit them at all, and nor they will be helped |
| 52:47 | | And verily, for those who have transgressed (awaits) a torment additional to this; but the majority of them do not know |
| 52:48 | | So show steadfastness for the Ordainment of your Nourisher-Sustainer. So verily, you are under (protection of) Our Eyes. And glorify with the Praise of your Nourisher-Sustainer when you stand up (for offering or leading a Prayer) |
| 52:49 | | And out (of the hours) of the night, do glorify Him and (at the) retreat of the stars. [This is a recommendation for Isha and Fajr Prayers] |
