إِنَّ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا

Indeed, for the righteous is attainment[1] –

حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعۡنَٰبٗا

Gardens and grapevines.

وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتۡرَابٗا

And full-breasted [companions] of equal age.

وَكَأۡسٗا دِهَاقٗا

And a full cup.[1]

لَّا يَسۡمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغۡوٗا وَلَا كِذَّـٰبٗا

No ill speech will they hear therein or any falsehood –

جَزَآءٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابٗا

[As] reward from your Lord, [a generous] gift [made due by] account,[1]

رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِۖ لَا يَمۡلِكُونَ مِنۡهُ خِطَابٗا

[From] the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Most Merciful. They possess not from Him [authority for] speech.[1]

يَوۡمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ صَفّٗاۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنۡ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابٗا

The Day that the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] and the angels will stand in rows, they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is correct.

ذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡيَوۡمُ ٱلۡحَقُّۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا

That is the True [i.e., certain] Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord a [way of] return.[1]

إِنَّآ أَنذَرۡنَٰكُمۡ عَذَابٗا قَرِيبٗا يَوۡمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مَا قَدَّمَتۡ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلۡكَافِرُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَٰبَۢا

Indeed, We have warned you of an impending punishment on the Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth[1] and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"

وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَٰتِ غَرۡقٗا

By those [angels] who extract with violence[1]

وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَٰتِ نَشۡطٗا

And [by] those who remove with ease[1]

وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَٰتِ سَبۡحٗا

And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming[1]

فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَٰتِ سَبۡقٗا

And those who race each other in a race[1]

فَٱلۡمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمۡرٗا

And those who arrange [each] matter,[1]

يَوۡمَ تَرۡجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ

On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

تَتۡبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ

There will follow it the subsequent [one].

قُلُوبٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ وَاجِفَةٌ

Hearts,[1] that Day, will tremble,

أَبۡصَٰرُهَا خَٰشِعَةٞ

Their eyes[1] humbled.

يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرۡدُودُونَ فِي ٱلۡحَافِرَةِ

They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَٰمٗا نَّخِرَةٗ

Even if we should be decayed bones?"[1]

قَالُواْ تِلۡكَ إِذٗا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٞ

They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."[1]

فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ زَجۡرَةٞ وَٰحِدَةٞ

Indeed, it will be but one shout,

فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ

And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ

Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

إِذۡ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلۡوَادِ ٱلۡمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى

When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of $uwŒ,

ٱذۡهَبۡ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ

"Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

فَقُلۡ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ

And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

وَأَهۡدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخۡشَىٰ

And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

فَأَرَىٰهُ ٱلۡأٓيَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ

And he showed him the greatest sign,[1]
