52:1  I (God) swear by the Mount Sinai

52:2  And this Qur’an which is already written and preserved in a…

52:3  safe place in an unfolded scroll

52:4  And by this house (Kaba in Mecca built by Abraham for the worship of God) which is being visited by so many people

52:5  And the elevated canopy

52:6  And by the swollen ocea

52:7  Have no doubt about the coming of the day of…

52:8  judgment that no one can escape it

52:9  On the day that the heaven will move from…

52:10  side to side and the mountains will be wiped out

52:11  Grief and sorrow on that day to disbelievers who wasted their life by entering into…

52:12  vain discourse and took serious matters lightly

52:13  The day on which they will be dragged violently to the Hellfire

52:14  They will be told:” This is the Fire that you were denying.”

52:15  “Do you think this is magic? Can you see now what you were rejecting?”

52:16  Burn now. whether you bear it or not, this is your destiny. You are simply being rewarded according to your deeds

52:17  The righteous ones will end up in garden enjoying heavenly joy

52:18  Their Lord will save them from the punishment of Hell and let them rejoice in Heaven

52:19  “Eat and drink free of charge as a reward for your worldly deeds.”

52:20  Reclining on luxurious furnishings, face to face they will enjoy each others company; they will be wedded to pure spouses with beautiful eyes

52:21  I (God) will join in paradise those who have believed with their offspring, who have followed their footsteps in faith. No one will be deprived of the reward for his deeds. The man’s soul [which is a collateral for what God has offered him in this world as a debt], will be freed of his debt

52:22  I (God) will provide them [free of charge] with any fruit or meat that they may desire

52:23  They will be passed hand to hand cups of drinks which will not intoxicate them and, therefore, they will never behave indecently or use abusive language

52:24  They will have appointed young servants who will be as lovely as well-guarded pearls

52:25  They will talk to each other about their worldly lives saying

52:26  “While living among our folks, we were not obsessed with accumulating the wealth and our financial security

52:27  That is why God has been so kind to us and has saved us from the hot winds of poisonous gases of Hell

52:28  God was the Only One Whom we turned to; indeed He is the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

52:29  Go on and guide them to the right path. By the grace of your Lord, you are neither a wizard nor a mad man

52:30  They say: “Mohammad is a poet, insulting our idols; we are waiting so that pretty soon he will be subjected to a miserable end by our gods.”

52:31  Tell them: “Wait, I will be waiting too.”

52:32  Are these contradictory accusations [calling Mohammad an intelligent poet and at the same time a mad man, for example] the fruit of their thoughts or the manifestation of their wicked nature

52:33  While they know that Mohammad is not capable of coming up with such a superior work like Qur’an, is their insistence upon this accusation not a sign of their wickedness

52:34  If they really believe that a man is capable of producing a book like this, then challenge them to produce a similar book, if they are sincere about what they are saying

52:35  Do they think that they are created out of nothing? Are they their own creators

52:36  Have they created heavens and the earth? The fact of the matter is that they are sure of nothing; they have no faith

52:37  Do they possess the treasures of your Lord? Do they have control over anything

52:38  Have they any ladder to climb up to heaven and listen directly to their Lord [as they deny the authenticity of the message relayed to them by the Messenger]. If so, what have they heard? Do they have any proof

52:39  If they claim to hear from God, how come they assign daughters to God while they kill their own daughters as it is beneath their “dignity” to have nothing but son

52:40  Does our prophet ask for a wage for his mission that they are afraid of paying for him

52:41  Do they have the knowledge of the unseen realities that they flatly refuse it

52:42  Do they constantly devise secret plots against our prophet? Let them know that those who devise devilish plots, their plots always backfires

52:43  Do they have any other God beside God? Glory to God, far above having a partner

52:44  Even a great miracle such as falling a part of the sky will be justified by them as “a mass of cloud advancing.”

52:45  So let them in their disbelief till the Day that they will be struck down

52:46  On that day their plots will not protect them; nothing will protect them

52:47  Even before that Day, they will be subject to misfortunes without understanding it

52:48  Be patient till you are given the victory. God is watching over His Prophet. Glorify and praise your Lord when you wake up

52:49  Also glorify Him at night as well as at the retreat of stars [before dawn]
