The Inevitable
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
إِذَا وَقَعَتِ ٱلۡوَاقِعَةُ ﴿١﴾
56:1When the Occurrence occurs
لَيۡسَ لِوَقۡعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ ﴿٢﴾
56:2There is, at its occurrence, no denial
خَافِضَةٞ رَّافِعَةٌ ﴿٣﴾
56:3It will bring down [some] and raise up [others]
إِذَا رُجَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ رَجّٗا ﴿٤﴾
56:4When the earth is shaken with convulsion
وَبُسَّتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ بَسّٗا ﴿٥﴾
56:5And the mountains are broken down, crumbling
فَكَانَتۡ هَبَآءٗ مُّنۢبَثّٗا ﴿٦﴾
56:6And become dust dispersing
وَكُنتُمۡ أَزۡوَٰجٗا ثَلَٰثَةٗ ﴿٧﴾
56:7And you become [of] three kinds
فَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَيۡمَنَةِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَيۡمَنَةِ ﴿٨﴾
56:8Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right
وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡـَٔمَةِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡمَشۡـَٔمَةِ ﴿٩﴾
56:9And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left
وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ﴿١٠﴾
56:10And the forerunners, the forerunners
أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبُونَ ﴿١١﴾
56:11Those are the ones brought near [to Allah]
فِي جَنَّـٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ﴿١٢﴾
56:12In the Gardens of Pleasure
ثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ﴿١٣﴾
56:13A [large] company of the former peoples
وَقَلِيلٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ﴿١٤﴾
56:14And a few of the later peoples
عَلَىٰ سُرُرٖ مَّوۡضُونَةٖ ﴿١٥﴾
56:15On thrones woven [with ornament]
مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَيۡهَا مُتَقَٰبِلِينَ ﴿١٦﴾
56:16Reclining on them, facing each other
يَطُوفُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وِلۡدَٰنٞ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ﴿١٧﴾
56:17There will circulate among them young boys made eternal
بِأَكۡوَابٖ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأۡسٖ مِّن مَّعِينٖ ﴿١٨﴾
56:18With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring
لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنۡهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ﴿١٩﴾
56:19No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated
وَفَٰكِهَةٖ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ﴿٢٠﴾
56:20And fruit of what they select
وَلَحۡمِ طَيۡرٖ مِّمَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ ﴿٢١﴾
56:21And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire
وَحُورٌ عِينٞ ﴿٢٢﴾
56:22And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes
كَأَمۡثَٰلِ ٱللُّؤۡلُوِٕ ٱلۡمَكۡنُونِ ﴿٢٣﴾
56:23The likenesses of pearls well-protected
جَزَآءَۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ ﴿٢٤﴾
56:24As reward for what they used to do
لَا يَسۡمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغۡوٗا وَلَا تَأۡثِيمًا ﴿٢٥﴾
56:25They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin
إِلَّا قِيلٗا سَلَٰمٗا سَلَٰمٗا ﴿٢٦﴾
56:26Only a saying: "Peace, peace
وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡيَمِينِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ﴿٢٧﴾
56:27The 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﴾
56:29And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]
وَظِلّٖ مَّمۡدُودٖ ﴿٣٠﴾
56:30And shade extended
وَمَآءٖ مَّسۡكُوبٖ ﴿٣١﴾
56:31And water poured out
وَفَٰكِهَةٖ كَثِيرَةٖ ﴿٣٢﴾
56:32And fruit, abundant [and varied]
لَّا مَقۡطُوعَةٖ وَلَا مَمۡنُوعَةٖ ﴿٣٣﴾
56:33Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden
وَفُرُشٖ مَّرۡفُوعَةٍ ﴿٣٤﴾
56:34And [upon] beds raised high
إِنَّآ أَنشَأۡنَٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءٗ ﴿٣٥﴾
56:35Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation
فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُنَّ أَبۡكَارًا ﴿٣٦﴾
56:36And made them virgins
عُرُبًا أَتۡرَابٗا ﴿٣٧﴾
56:37Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age
لِّأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ﴿٣٨﴾
56:38For the companions of the right [who are]
ثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ﴿٣٩﴾
56:39A company of the former peoples
وَثُلَّةٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ﴿٤٠﴾
56:40And a company of the later peoples
وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ﴿٤١﴾
56:41And 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﴾
56:43And a shade of black smoke
لَّا بَارِدٖ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ﴿٤٤﴾
56:44Neither cool nor beneficial
إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ قَبۡلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتۡرَفِينَ ﴿٤٥﴾
56:45Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence
وَكَانُواْ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلۡحِنثِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ﴿٤٦﴾
56:46And they used to persist in the great violation
وَكَانُواْ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابٗا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبۡعُوثُونَ ﴿٤٧﴾
56:47And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected
أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ ﴿٤٨﴾
56:48And our forefathers [as well]
قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ ﴿٤٩﴾
56:49Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, the former and the later peoples
لَمَجۡمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَٰتِ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ ﴿٥٠﴾
56:50Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ أَيُّهَا ٱلضَّآلُّونَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿٥١﴾
56:51Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers
لَأٓكِلُونَ مِن شَجَرٖ مِّن زَقُّومٖ ﴿٥٢﴾
56:52Will be eating from trees of zaqqum
فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنۡهَا ٱلۡبُطُونَ ﴿٥٣﴾
56:53And filling with it your bellies
فَشَٰرِبُونَ عَلَيۡهِ مِنَ ٱلۡحَمِيمِ ﴿٥٤﴾
56:54And drinking on top of it from scalding water
فَشَٰرِبُونَ شُرۡبَ ٱلۡهِيمِ ﴿٥٥﴾
56:55And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels
هَٰذَا نُزُلُهُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿٥٦﴾
56:56That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense
نَحۡنُ خَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ فَلَوۡلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ﴿٥٧﴾
56:57We have created you, so why do you not believe
أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تُمۡنُونَ ﴿٥٨﴾
56:58Have you seen that which you emit
ءَأَنتُمۡ تَخۡلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقُونَ ﴿٥٩﴾
56:59Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator
نَحۡنُ قَدَّرۡنَا بَيۡنَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَسۡبُوقِينَ ﴿٦٠﴾
56:60We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone
عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمۡثَٰلَكُمۡ وَنُنشِئَكُمۡ فِي مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ ﴿٦١﴾
56:61In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know
وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلنَّشۡأَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ فَلَوۡلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿٦٢﴾
56:62And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember
أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تَحۡرُثُونَ ﴿٦٣﴾
56:63And have you seen that [seed] which you sow
ءَأَنتُمۡ تَزۡرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلزَّـٰرِعُونَ ﴿٦٤﴾
56:64Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower
لَوۡ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلۡنَٰهُ حُطَٰمٗا فَظَلۡتُمۡ تَفَكَّهُونَ ﴿٦٥﴾
56:65If 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﴾
56:67Rather, we have been deprived
أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱلۡمَآءَ ٱلَّذِي تَشۡرَبُونَ ﴿٦٨﴾
56:68And have you seen the water that you drink
ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنزَلۡتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُزۡنِ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنزِلُونَ ﴿٦٩﴾
56:69Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down
لَوۡ نَشَآءُ جَعَلۡنَٰهُ أُجَاجٗا فَلَوۡلَا تَشۡكُرُونَ ﴿٧٠﴾
56:70If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful
أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِي تُورُونَ ﴿٧١﴾
56:71And have you seen the fire that you ignite
ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنشَأۡتُمۡ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنشِـُٔونَ ﴿٧٢﴾
56:72Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer
نَحۡنُ جَعَلۡنَٰهَا تَذۡكِرَةٗ وَمَتَٰعٗا لِّلۡمُقۡوِينَ ﴿٧٣﴾
56:73We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers
فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ﴿٧٤﴾
56:74So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great
۞فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ﴿٧٥﴾
56:75Then I swear by the setting of the stars
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٞ لَّوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ﴿٧٦﴾
56:76And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great
إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرۡءَانٞ كَرِيمٞ ﴿٧٧﴾
56:77Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an
فِي كِتَٰبٖ مَّكۡنُونٖ ﴿٧٨﴾
56:78In a Register well-protected
لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُطَهَّرُونَ ﴿٧٩﴾
56:79None 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﴾
56:81Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent
وَتَجۡعَلُونَ رِزۡقَكُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ تُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿٨٢﴾
56:82And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]
فَلَوۡلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلۡحُلۡقُومَ ﴿٨٣﴾
56:83Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat
وَأَنتُمۡ حِينَئِذٖ تَنظُرُونَ ﴿٨٤﴾
56:84And you are at that time looking on
وَنَحۡنُ أَقۡرَبُ إِلَيۡهِ مِنكُمۡ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبۡصِرُونَ ﴿٨٥﴾
56:85And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see
فَلَوۡلَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ غَيۡرَ مَدِينِينَ ﴿٨٦﴾
56:86Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed
تَرۡجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ ﴿٨٧﴾
56:87Bring it back, if you should be truthful
فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ ﴿٨٨﴾
56:88And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah
فَرَوۡحٞ وَرَيۡحَانٞ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٖ ﴿٨٩﴾
56:89Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure
وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ﴿٩٠﴾
56:90And if he was of the companions of the right
فَسَلَٰمٞ لَّكَ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ ﴿٩١﴾
56:91Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right
وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ﴿٩٢﴾
56:92But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray
فَنُزُلٞ مِّنۡ حَمِيمٖ ﴿٩٣﴾
56:93Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water
وَتَصۡلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ﴿٩٤﴾
56:94And burning in Hellfire
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ﴿٩٥﴾
56:95Indeed, this is the true certainty
فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ﴿٩٦﴾
56:96So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great
