Qur’an — Page 568 of 604

فَلَيۡسَ لَهُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ هَٰهُنَا حَمِيمٞ ٣٥

So there is not for him here this Day any devoted friend

وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِينٖ ٣٦

Nor any food except from the discharge of wounds;

لَّا يَأۡكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡخَٰطِـُٔونَ ٣٧

None will eat it except the sinners.

فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ٣٨

So I swear by what you see

وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ٣٩

And what you do not see

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولٖ كَرِيمٖ ٤٠

[That] indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is the word of a noble Messenger.

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُونَ ٤١

And it is not the word of a poet; little do you believe.

وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ ٤٢

Nor the word of a soothsayer; little do you remember.

تَنزِيلٞ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٤٣

[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ ٱلۡأَقَاوِيلِ ٤٤

And if he [i.e., Muḥammad] had made up about Us some [false] sayings,

لَأَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِٱلۡيَمِينِ ٤٥

We would have seized him by the right hand;¹

ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ ٱلۡوَتِينَ ٤٦

Then We would have cut from him the aorta.¹

فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَٰجِزِينَ ٤٧

And there is no one of you who could prevent [Us] from him.

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذۡكِرَةٞ لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ ٤٨

And indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is a reminder for the righteous.

وَإِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِينَ ٤٩

And indeed, We know that among you are deniers.

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ ٥٠

And indeed, it will be [a cause of] regret upon the disbelievers.

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ٥١

And indeed, it is the truth of certainty.

فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٥٢

So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

سَأَلَ سَآئِلُۢ بِعَذَابٖ وَاقِعٖ ١

A supplicant asked for a punishment bound to happen¹

لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ لَيۡسَ لَهُۥ دَافِعٞ ٢

To the disbelievers; of it there is no preventer.

مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ ذِي ٱلۡمَعَارِجِ ٣

[It is] from Allāh, owner of the ways of ascent.

تَعۡرُجُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ إِلَيۡهِ فِي يَوۡمٖ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهُۥ خَمۡسِينَ أَلۡفَ سَنَةٖ ٤

The angels and the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] will ascend to Him during a Day the extent of which is fifty thousand years.

فَٱصۡبِرۡ صَبۡرٗا جَمِيلًا ٥

So be patient with gracious patience.

إِنَّهُمۡ يَرَوۡنَهُۥ بَعِيدٗا ٦

Indeed, they see it [as] distant,

وَنَرَىٰهُ قَرِيبٗا ٧

But We see it [as] near.

يَوۡمَ تَكُونُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ ٨

On the Day the sky will be like murky oil,¹

وَتَكُونُ ٱلۡجِبَالُ كَٱلۡعِهۡنِ ٩

And the mountains will be like wool,¹

وَلَا يَسۡـَٔلُ حَمِيمٌ حَمِيمٗا ١٠

And no friend will ask [anything of] a friend,
