| | Abdul Majid Daryabadi rendition of Surah The Moon(al-Qamar)
--- |
|---|
| 54:1 | | The Hour hath drawn nigh, and the moon hath been rent in sunder.. And if they behold a sign, they turn away and say: magic continuous |
| 54:2 | | And if they behold a sign, they turn away and say: "magic continous" |
| 54:3 | | And they belied, and they followed their lusts; and every affair cometh to a final goal |
| 54:4 | | And assuredly there hath come Unto them tidings wherein is a deterrent |
| 54:5 | | Wisdom consummate. But warnings avail not |
| 54:6 | | Wherefore withdrew thou from them. The Day whereon the sum- moner Will summon mankind Unto a thing unpleasant |
| 54:7 | | With looks downcast they will come forth, from the tombs, as though they were locusts scattered abroad |
| 54:8 | | Hastening toward the summoner. The infidels will say: this is a day diffrcult |
| 54:9 | | There belied before them the people of Nuh. So they belied Our bondman Nuh and said: `a madman;' and moreover he was reproven |
| 54:10 | | Thereupon he prayed Unto his Lord: verily am overcome, so vindicate me |
| 54:11 | | Then We opened the portals of heaven with water poured out |
| 54:12 | | And We made the earth break forth with springs; SO that the water met for an affair already decreed |
| 54:13 | | And We bare him on a thing of planks and nails |
| 54:14 | | Moving forward under Our eyes: a requital for him who had been rejected |
| 54:15 | | And assuredly We left it for a sign. Is there then anyone who would be admonished |
| 54:16 | | So how dreadful have been My torment and My warning |
| 54:17 | | And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is there then any one who would be admonished |
| 54:18 | | And there belied the 'A-ad; so how dreadful have been My torment and warning |
| 54:19 | | Verily We! We sent against them a raging Wind On a day of calamity continuous |
| 54:20 | | Carrying men away as though they were trunks of palm-trees uprooted |
| 54:21 | | So how dreodful have been My torment and My warning |
| 54:22 | | And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is therethen any one who would be admonished |
| 54:23 | | And the Thamud belied the warnings |
| 54:24 | | And they said: a mere humanbeing from amongst us, and single! shall we follow him! verily then we should fall in error and madness |
| 54:25 | | Hath the Admonition been laid upon him from amongst us! Aye! he is a liar insolent |
| 54:26 | | They shall know tomorrow whichsoever is a liar insolent |
| 54:27 | | Verify We are sending the she-camel as a test for them, so watch them thou and have patience |
| 54:28 | | And declare thou Unto them that water hath been divided between them; every drinking shall be by turns |
| 54:29 | | Then they called their fellow, and he took the sword and hamstrung her |
| 54:30 | | So how dreadful have been My torment and My warnings |
| 54:31 | | Verily We We sent upon them one shout, and they became as the stubble of a fold-builder |
| 54:32 | | And assuredly We have made the Qur'an eary for admanirion: is there then any one who would be admonished |
| 54:33 | | The people of Lut belied the warnings |
| 54:34 | | Verily We! We sent upon them a gravel-storm save the household of Lut; them We delivered at early dawn |
| 54:35 | | As a favour from us. Thus We recompense him who giveth thanks |
| 54:36 | | And assuredly he had warned them of Our grasp, but: they doubted the warnings |
| 54:37 | | And assuredly they solicited him for his guests: then We wiped out their eyes: taste then My torment and My warnings |
| 54:38 | | And assuredly there met them early in the morning a torment settled |
| 54:39 | | Taste then My torment and My warnings |
| 54:40 | | And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is there then any one who would be admonished |
| 54:41 | | And assuredly Unto the household of Fir'awn came the warning |
| 54:42 | | They belied Our signs everyone thereof; whereof We laid hold of them with the grip of our Mighty, Powerful |
| 54:43 | | Are your infidels better than these? Or is there an immunity for you in the Writs |
| 54:44 | | Or is it that they say: we are a multitude prevailing |
| 54:45 | | Anon will their multitude be vanquished, and they will turn the back |
| 54:46 | | Aye! the Hour is their appointed term, and the Hour shall be far more grievous and far more bitter |
| 54:47 | | Verily the culprits shall be in great error and madness |
| 54:48 | | On the Day whereon they shall be dragged into the Fire upon their faces, it shall be said Unto them: taste the touch of the Scorching |
| 54:49 | | Veriiy everything! We have created it by a measure |
| 54:50 | | And Our commandment shall be but one, as the twinkling of an eye |
| 54:51 | | And assuredly We have destroyed your likes; so is there any one who shall be admonished |
| 54:52 | | And everything they have wrought is in the Writs |
| 54:53 | | And everything, small and great, hath been written down |
| 54:54 | | Verily the God-fearing will be in Gardens and among rivers |
| 54:55 | | In a good seat, near a Sovereign Omnipotent |
