| | Abdul Hye rendition of Surah The Mount, The Mountain(at-Tur)
--- |
|---|
| 52:1 | | By the (mount) Tur (where Moses received Torah); |
| 52:2 | | and by the book inscribed |
| 52:3 | | in parchment (written sheep skin) unrolled, |
| 52:4 | | and by the house (Bait-ul-Mamoor, the house over the heavens parallel to the Ka’bah at Makkah, visited by the angels), |
| 52:5 | | and by the roof raised high (sky), |
| 52:6 | | and by the sea boiling blaze, |
| 52:7 | | surely, the punishment of your Lord will surely come to pass. |
| 52:8 | | There is none that can avert it. |
| 52:9 | | On the Day when the heaven will shake with a dreadful shaking |
| 52:10 | | and the mountains will move away with a horrible movement. |
| 52:11 | | On that Day, woe be to the rejecters (of truth), |
| 52:12 | | who are engaged in falsehood. |
| 52:13 | | That Day they will be pushed down by force to the fire of hell with a forceful pushing, |
| 52:14 | | (it will be said to them): “This is the fire which you used to deny. |
| 52:15 | | Is this a magic, or do you not see? |
| 52:16 | | You burn in its heat; it will be the same for you whether you be patient or not be patient. You are only being requited for what you used to do.” |
| 52:17 | | Surely, the pious will be in gardens (Paradise), and delight, |
| 52:18 | | enjoying in that which their Lord has bestowed on them and their Lord saved them from the punishment of the blazing fire. |
| 52:19 | | (It will be said to them): “Eat and drink with happiness because of what you used to do (good deeds).” |
| 52:20 | | They will recline (with ease) on thrones arranged in ranks. And We shall marry them to lovely maidens with wide lovely eyes. |
| 52:21 | | Those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will join their offspring to them, and We will not decrease any reward for their deeds. Every person has a pledge for that which it has earned. |
| 52:22 | | And We shall provide them with fruit and meat as they desire. |
| 52:23 | | They shall pass from hand to hand a wine cup in it which shall cause no dirty, false talk in it (between them), and no sin will go around, |
| 52:24 | | and boy-servants will go round for them to serve them as if they were preserved pearls. |
| 52:25 | | And some of them will come near to others, questioning (worldly life |
| 52:26 | | and they will say: “Surely, we were previously afraid with our families (from the punishment of Allah). |
| 52:27 | | But Allah has been Gracious to us, and has saved us from the punishment of the fire. |
| 52:28 | | Surely, we used to invoke Him before. Surely, He is the Kind, the Merciful.” |
| 52:29 | | Therefore, remind and preach (mankind, O Muhammad). By the Grace of Allah, you are neither a fortune-teller, nor a madman. |
| 52:30 | | Or do they say: “(Muhammad is) a poet! We are waiting for him some calamity (by time)!” |
| 52:31 | | Say (O Muhammad to them): “Wait! I am with you among the waiters!” |
| 52:32 | | Or do their minds command them this (to tell a lie against you)? Or are they people exceeding all bounds (from belief to disbelief)? |
| 52:33 | | Or do they say: “He (Muhammad) has forged it (this Qur’an)?” Nay! They don’t believe! |
| 52:34 | | Then let them produce a Scripture like it (the Qur’an) if they are truthful. |
| 52:35 | | Or were they created by no one? Or were they (themselves) the creators? |
| 52:36 | | Or have they created the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they have no firm belief. |
| 52:37 | | Or are the treasures of your Lord with them? Or are they the tyrants with the authority to do as they like? |
| 52:38 | | Or do they have a stairway (to heaven), by means of which they listen (to the talks of the angels)? Then let their listener produce some clear proof. |
| 52:39 | | Or has He only daughters and you have sons? |
| 52:40 | | Or is it that you (O Muhammad) ask a wage from them (for your preaching) so that they are burdened from a load of debt? |
| 52:41 | | Or is the (knowledge of) unseen with them and they write it down? |
| 52:42 | | Or do they intend a plot (against you)? If so, those who disbelieve are themselves (trapped) in a plot! |
| 52:43 | | Or do they have one worthy of worship other than Allah? Glorified is Allah from all that they ascribe as partners (to Him). |
| 52:44 | | Even if they were to see a piece of the heaven falling down, they would say: “Clouds gathered in heaps!” |
| 52:45 | | So leave them alone till they meet their Day, in which they will sink into a fainting (with horror). |
| 52:46 | | The Day when their plotting will avail them nothing nor will be helped. |
| 52:47 | | Surely, for those who do wrong, there is punishment (in this world and in graves) before this, but most of them don’t know. |
| 52:48 | | So wait patiently (O Muhammad) for the decision of your Lord, for surely He is watching you. Glorify the praises of your Lord when you get up from sleep, |
| 52:49 | | and also glorify His praises in the night-time, and at the setting of stars. |
