مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝١

Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection;

وَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلنَّفْسِ ٱللَّوَّامَةِ ۝٢

and nay, I swear by the self-reproaching soul!

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُۥ ۝۳

Does man imagine that We will not be able to bring his bones together again?

بَلَىٰ قَٰدِرِينَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّسَوِّىَ بَنَانَهُۥ ۝٤

Yes indeed; We have the power to remould even his finger-tips.

بَلْ يُرِيدُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُۥ ۝٥

But man desires to persist in his evil ways.

يَسْـَٔلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝٦

He asks: “When will the Day of Resurrection be?”

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلْبَصَرُ ۝۷

When the sight is dazed,

وَخَسَفَ ٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۸

and the moon is eclipsed,

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۹

and the sun and the moon are joined together,

يَقُولُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ ٱلْمَفَرُّ ۝١۰

on that Day will man say: “Whither the refuge?”

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ۝١١

No, there is no refuge.

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمُسْتَقَرُّ ۝١٢

With your Lord alone will be the retreat that Day.

يُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ ۝١۳

On that Day will man be apprised of his deeds, both the earlier and the later.

بَلِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةٌۭ ۝١٤

But lo, man is well aware of himself,

وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ ۝١٥

even though he might make up excuses.

لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِۦ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِۦٓ ۝١٦

(O Prophet), do not stir your tongue hastily (to commit the Revelation to memory).

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُۥ وَقُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۷

Surely it is for Us to have you commit it to memory and to recite it.

فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَٰهُ فَٱتَّبِعْ قُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۸

And so when We recite it, follow its recitation attentively;

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُۥ ۝١۹

then it will be for Us to explain it.

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ ٱلْعَاجِلَةَ ۝٢۰

Nay; the truth is that you love ardently (the good of this world) that can be obtained hastily,

وَتَذَرُونَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةَ ۝٢١

and are oblivious of the Hereafter.

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاضِرَةٌ ۝٢٢

Some faces on that Day will be fresh and resplendent,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌۭ ۝٢۳

and will be looking towards their Lord;

وَوُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بَاسِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٤

and some faces on that Day will be gloomy,

تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٥

believing that a crushing calamity is about to strike them.

كَلَّآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلتَّرَاقِىَ ۝٢٦

Nay; when a man's soul reaches up to the throat,

وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍۢ ۝٢۷

and it is said: “Is there any enchanter who can step forward and help (by his chanting)?”

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ ٱلْفِرَاقُ ۝٢۸

and he realises that the hour of parting is come,

وَٱلْتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ ۝٢۹

and calf is inter-twined with calf.

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمَسَاقُ ۝۳۰

On that Day you will be driven to your Lord.

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ ۝۳١

But he did not verify the Truth, nor did he observe Prayer;

وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ۝۳٢

on the contrary, he gave the lie to the Truth and turned his back upon it,

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ يَتَمَطَّىٰٓ ۝۳۳

then he went back to his kinsfolk, elated with pride.

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ ۝۳٤

This (attitude) is worthy of you, altogether worthy;

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰٓ ۝۳٥

again, it is worthy of you, altogether worthy.

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى ۝۳٦

Does man think that he will be left alone, unquestioned?

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةًۭ مِّن مَّنِىٍّۢ يُمْنَىٰ ۝۳۷

Was he not a drop of ejaculated semen,

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةًۭ فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ۝۳۸

then he became a clot, and then Allah made it into a living body and proportioned its parts,

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ ٱلزَّوْجَيْنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ ۝۳۹

and then He made of him a pair, male and female?

أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يُحْۦِىَ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ ۝٤۰

Does He, then, not have the power to bring back the dead to life?
