| | In the name of God, the Almighty, the Most Merciful. | Bismi Allahi alrrahmani alrraheemi |
| 054:001 | The Hour draws near, and the moon is breached. | Iqtarabati alssaAAatu wainshaqqa alqamaru |
| 054:002 | And if they see a sign, they turn away and Say: "Continuous magic!" | Wa-in yaraw ayatan yuAAridoo wayaqooloo sihrun mustamirrun |
| 054:003 | And they disbelieved, and followed their desires, and every old tradition. | Wakaththaboo waittabaAAoo ahwaahum wakullu amrin mustaqirrun |
| 054:004 | While the news had come to them in which there was sufficient warning. | Walaqad jaahum mina al-anba-i ma feehi muzdajarun |
| 054:005 | A perfect wisdom; but the warnings are of no benefit. | Hikmatun balighatun fama tughnee alnnuthuru |
| 054:006 | So turn away from them; the Day will come when the caller will announce a terrible disaster. | Fatawalla AAanhum yawma yadAAu alddaAAi ila shay-in nukurin |
| 054:007 | With their eyes humiliated, they come out of the graves like scattered locusts. | KhushshaAAan absaruhum yakhrujoona mina al-ajdathi kaannahum jaradun muntashirun |
| 054:008 | Hastening towards the caller, the rejecters will Say: "This is a difficult Day." | MuhtiAAeena ila alddaAAi yaqoolu alkafiroona hatha yawmun AAasirun |
| 054:009 | The people of Noah disbelieved before them. They disbelieved Our servant and said: "He is crazy!" and he was oppressed. | Kaththabat qablahum qawmu noohin fakaththaboo AAabdana waqaloo majnoonun waizdujira |
| 054:010 | So he called on his Lord: "I am beaten, so grant me victory." | FadaAAa rabbahu annee maghloobun faintasir |
| 054:011 | So We opened the gates of the sky with pouring water. | Fafatahna abwaba alssama-i bima-in munhamirin |
| 054:012 | And We caused springs to gush out of the Earth. Thus the waters met to a command which had been measured. | Wafajjarna al-arda AAuyoonan failtaqa almao AAala amrin qad qudira |
| 054:013 | We carried him on a craft made of slabs and mortar. | Wahamalnahu AAala thati alwahin wadusurin |
| 054:014 | It ran under Our watchful eyes; a reward for one who was rejected. | Tajree bi-aAAyunina jazaan liman kana kufira |
| 054:015 | And We have left it as a sign. Do any of you wish to learn? | Walaqad taraknaha ayatan fahal min muddakirin |
| 054:016 | So how was My retribution after the warnings! | Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:017 | And We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? | Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin |
| 054:018 | 'Aad disbelieved. So how was My retribution after the warnings! | Kaththabat AAadun fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:019 | We sent upon them a violent wind, on a day of continuous misery. | Inna arsalna AAalayhim reehan sarsaran fee yawmi nahsin mustamirrin |
| 054:020 | It uprooted the people as if they were decayed palm tree trunks. | TanziAAu alnnasa kaannahum aAAjazu nakhlin munqaAAirin |
| 054:021 | So how was My retribution after the warnings! | Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:022 | We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? | Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin |

## 23-40

| 054:023 | Thamud rejected the warnings. | Kaththabat thamoodu bialnnuthuri |
| 054:024 | They said: "Shall we follow one of us; a human being? We will then go astray, and be in Hell." | Faqaloo abasharan minna wahidan nattabiAAuhu inna ithan lafee dalalin wasuAAurin |
| 054:025 | "Has the message come down to him, instead of us? He is an evil liar." | Aolqiya alththikru AAalayhi min baynina bal huwa kaththabun ashirun |
| 054:026 | They will find out tomorrow who the evil liar is. | SayaAAlamoona ghadan mani alkaththabu al-ashiru |
| 054:027 | We are sending the camel as a test for them. So observe them and be patient. | Inna mursiloo alnnaqati fitnatan lahum fairtaqibhum waistabir |
| 054:028 | And inform them that the water shall be divided between them; each shall be allowed to drink in the specified time. | Wanabbi/hum anna almaa qismatun baynahum kullu shirbin muhtadarun |
| 054:029 | But they called on their friend, and he was paid to slaughter. | Fanadaw sahibahum fataAAata faAAaqara |
| 054:030 | So how was My retribution after the warnings! | Fakayfa kana AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:031 | We sent upon them one scream, whereupon they became like harvested hay. | Inna arsalna AAalayhim sayhatan wahidatan fakanoo kahasheemi almuhtathiri |
| 054:032 | We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn? | Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin |
| 054:033 | The people of Lot rejected the warners. | Kaththabat qawmu lootin bialnnuthuri |
| 054:034 | We sent upon them projectiles. Except for the family of Lot, We saved them at dawn. | Inna arsalna AAalayhim hasiban illa ala lootin najjaynahum bisaharin |
| 054:035 | A blessing from Us; it is thus that We reward those who are appreciative. | NiAAmatan min AAindina kathalika najzee man shakara |
| 054:036 | And he warned them about Our punishment, but they ridiculed the warnings. | Walaqad antharahum batshatana fatamaraw bialnnuthuri |
| 054:037 | And they sought to remove him from his guests; so We diverted their eyes. "Taste My retribution; you have been warned." | Walaqad rawadoohu AAan dayfihi fatamasna aAAyunahum fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:038 | And in the early morning, a devastating retribution struck them. | Walaqad sabbahahum bukratan AAathabun mustaqirrun |
| 054:039 | "Taste My retribution; you have been warned." | Fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri |
| 054:040 | We made the Quran easy to learn. Do any of you wish to learn? | Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin |

| 054:042 | They rejected all Our signs. So We took them, the taking of the Noble, the Able. | Kaththaboo bi-ayatina kulliha faakhathnahum akhtha AAazeezin muqtadirin |
| 054:043 | Are your rejecters better than those? Or have you been absolved by the Scripture? | Akuffarukum khayrun min ola-ikum am lakum baraatun fee alzzuburi |
| 054:044 | Or do they Say: "We are a large group and we will win." | Am yaqooloona nahnu jameeAAun muntasirun |
| 054:045 | The large group will be defeated; they will turn around and flee. | Sayuhzamu aljamAAu wayuwalloona alddubura |
| 054:046 | The Hour is their appointed time, and the Hour is far worse and more painful. | Bali alssaAAatu mawAAiduhum waalssaAAatu adha waamarru |
| 054:047 | The criminals are in error and will burn. | Inna almujrimeena fee dalalin wasuAAurin |
| 054:048 | The Day when they will be dragged upon their faces into the Fire: "Taste the agony of the scorching heat!" | Yawma yushaboona fee alnnari AAala wujoohihim thooqoo massa saqara |
| 054:049 | Everything We have created in measure. | Inna kulla shay-in khalaqnahu biqadarin |
| 054:050 | And Our commands are done at once with the blink of an eye. | Wama amruna illa wahidatun kalamhin bialbasari |
