إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلۡوَاقِعَةُ ١

56:1 When the Occurrence occurs

لَيۡسَ لِوَقۡعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ٢

56:2 There is, at its occurrence, no denial

خَافِضَةٞ رَّافِعَةٌ ٣

56:3 It will bring down [some] and raise up [others]

إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ رَجّٗا ٤

56:4 When the earth is shaken with convulsion

وَبُسَّتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ بَسّٗا ٥

56:5 And the mountains are broken down, crumbling

فَكَانَتۡ هَبَآءٗ مُّنۢبَثّٗا ٦

56:6 And become dust dispersing

وَكُنتُمۡ أَزۡوَٰجٗا ثَلَٰثَةٗ ٧

56:7 And you become [of] three kinds

فَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَيۡمَنَةِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَيۡمَنَةِ ٨

56:8 Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right

وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡـَٔمَةِ ٩

وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ١٠

56:10 And the forerunners, the forerunners

أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبُونَ ١١

56:11 Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]

فِي جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ١٢

56:12 In the Gardens of Pleasure

ثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ١٣

56:13 A [large] company of the former peoples

وَقَلِيلٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ١٤

56:14 And a few of the later peoples

عَلَىٰ سُرُرٖ مَّوۡضُونَةٖ ١٥

56:15 On thrones woven [with ornament]

مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيۡهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ ١٦

56:16 Reclining on them, facing each other

يَطُوفُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وِلۡدَٰنٞ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ١٧

56:17 There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

بِأَكۡوَابٖ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأۡسٖ مِّن مَّعِينٖ ١٨

56:18 With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring

لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنۡهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ١٩

56:19 No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated

وَفَٰكِهَةٖ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ٢٠

56:20 And fruit of what they select

وَلَحۡمِ طَيۡرٖ مِّمَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ ٢١

56:21 And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire

وَحُورٌ عِينٞ ٢٢

56:22 And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes

كَأَمۡثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤۡلُوِٕ ٱلۡمَكۡنُونِ ٢٣

56:23 The likenesses of pearls well-protected

جَزَآءَۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ ٢٤

56:24 As reward for what they used to do

لَا يَسۡمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغۡوٗا وَلَا تَأۡثِيمًا ٢٥

56:25 They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin

إِلَّا قِيلٗا سَلَٰمٗا سَلَٰمٗا ٢٦

56:26 Only a saying: "Peace, peace

وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡيَمِينِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ٢٧

56:27 The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right

فِي سِدۡرٖ مَّخۡضُودٖ ٢٨

56:28 [They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed

وَطَلۡحٖ مَّنضُودٖ ٢٩

56:29 And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]

وَظِلّٖ مَّمۡدُودٖ ٣٠

56:30 And shade extended

وَمَآءٖ مَّسۡكُوبٖ ٣١

56:31 And water poured out

وَفَٰكِهَةٖ كَثِيرَةٖ ٣٢

56:32 And fruit, abundant [and varied]

لَّا مَقۡطُوعَةٖ وَلَا مَمۡنُوعَةٖ ٣٣

56:33 Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden

وَفُرُشٖ مَّرۡفُوعَةٍ ٣٤

56:34 And [upon] beds raised high

إِنَّآ أَنشَأۡنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءٗ ٣٥

56:35 Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation

فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُنَّ أَبۡكَارًا ٣٦

56:36 And made them virgins

عُرُبًا أَتۡرَابٗا ٣٧

56:37 Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age

لِّأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ٣٨

56:38 For the companions of the right [who are]

ثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ٣٩

56:39 A company of the former peoples

وَثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ٤٠

56:40 And a company of the later peoples

وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ٤١

56:41 And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left

فِي سَمُومٖ وَحَمِيمٖ ٤٢

56:42 [They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water

وَظِلّٖ مِّن يَحۡمُومٖ ٤٣

56:43 And a shade of black smoke

لَّا بَارِدٖ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ٤٤

56:44 Neither cool nor beneficial

إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَبۡلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتۡرَفِينَ ٤٥

56:45 Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence

وَكَانُواْ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلۡحِنثِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٤٦

56:46 And they used to persist in the great violation

وَكَانُواْ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابٗا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبۡعُوثُونَ ٤٧

56:47 And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected

أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ ٤٨

56:48 And our forefathers [as well]

قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ٤٩

56:49 Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, the former and the later peoples

لَمَجۡمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَٰتِ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ ٥٠

56:50 Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبُونَ ٥١

56:51 Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers

لَأٓكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٖ مِّن زَقُّومٖ ٥٢

56:52 Will be eating from trees of zaqqum

فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنۡهَا ٱلۡبُطُونَ ٥٣

56:53 And filling with it your bellies

فَشَٰرِبُونَ عَلَيۡهِ مِنَ ٱلۡحَمِيمِ ٥٤

56:54 And drinking on top of it from scalding water

فَشَٰرِبُونَ شُرۡبَ ٱلۡهِيمِ ٥٥

56:55 And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels

هَٰذَا نُزُلُهُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ ٥٦

56:56 That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense

نَحۡنُ خَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ فَلَوۡلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ٥٧

56:57 We have created you, so why do you not believe

أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تُمۡنُونَ ٥٨

56:58 Have you seen that which you emit

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَخۡلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقُونَ ٥٩

56:59 Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator

نَحۡنُ قَدَّرۡنَا بَيۡنَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَسۡبُوقِينَ ٦٠

56:60 We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone

عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمۡثَٰلَكُمۡ وَنُنشِئَكُمۡ فِي مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ ٦١

56:61 In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know

وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلنَّشۡأَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ فَلَوۡلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ٦٢

56:62 And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember

أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تَحۡرُثُونَ ٦٣

56:63 And have you seen that [seed] which you sow

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَزۡرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلزَّـٰرِعُونَ ٦٤

56:64 Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower

لَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلۡنَٰهُ حُطَٰمٗا فَظَلۡتُمۡ تَفَكَّهُونَ ٦٥

56:65 If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder

إِنَّا لَمُغۡرَمُونَ ٦٦

56:66 [Saying], "Indeed, we are [now] in debt

بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ ٦٧

56:67 Rather, we have been deprived

أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱلۡمَآءَ ٱلَّذِي تَشۡرَبُونَ ٦٨

56:68 And have you seen the water that you drink

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنزَلۡتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُزۡنِ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنزِلُونَ ٦٩

56:69 Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down

لَوۡ نَشَآءُ جَعَلۡنَٰهُ أُجَاجٗا فَلَوۡلَا تَشۡكُرُونَ ٧٠

56:70 If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful

أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِي تُورُونَ ٧١

56:71 And have you seen the fire that you ignite

ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنشَأۡتُمۡ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنشِـُٔونَ ٧٢

56:72 Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer

نَحۡنُ جَعَلۡنَٰهَا تَذۡكِرَةٗ وَمَتَٰعٗا لِّلۡمُقۡوِينَ ٧٣

56:73 We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٧٤

56:74 So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great

۞فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ٧٥

56:75 Then I swear by the setting of the stars

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٞ لَّوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ٧٦

56:76 And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great

إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرۡءَانٞ كَرِيمٞ ٧٧

56:77 Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an

فِي كِتَٰبٖ مَّكۡنُونٖ ٧٨

56:78 In a Register well-protected

لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُطَهَّرُونَ ٧٩

56:79 None touch it except the purified

تَنزِيلٞ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٨٠

56:80 [It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds

أَفَبِهَٰذَا ٱلۡحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدۡهِنُونَ ٨١

56:81 Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent

وَتَجۡعَلُونَ رِزۡقَكُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ تُكَذِّبُونَ ٨٢

56:82 And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]

فَلَوۡلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلۡحُلۡقُومَ ٨٣

56:83 Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat

وَأَنتُمۡ حِينَئِذٖ تَنظُرُونَ ٨٤

56:84 And you are at that time looking on

وَنَحۡنُ أَقۡرَبُ إِلَيۡهِ مِنكُمۡ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبۡصِرُونَ ٨٥

56:85 And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see

فَلَوۡلَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ غَيۡرَ مَدِينِينَ ٨٦

56:86 Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed

تَرۡجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ ٨٧

56:87 Bring it back, if you should be truthful

فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ ٨٨

56:88 And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah

فَرَوۡحٞ وَرَيۡحَانٞ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٖ ٨٩

56:89 Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ٩٠

56:90 And if he was of the companions of the right

فَسَلَٰمٞ لَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ٩١

56:91 Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right

وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ٩٢

56:92 But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray

فَنُزُلٞ مِّنۡ حَمِيمٖ ٩٣

56:93 Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water

وَتَصۡلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ٩٤

56:94 And burning in Hellfire

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ٩٥

56:95 Indeed, this is the true certainty

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٩٦

56:96 So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great
