An-Nazi'at
النازعات
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَٰتِ غَرۡقٗا
By those [angels] who extract with violence
وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَٰتِ نَشۡطٗا
And [by] those who remove with ease
وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَٰتِ سَبۡحٗا
And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming
فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَٰتِ سَبۡقٗا
And those who race each other in a race
فَٱلۡمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمۡرٗا
And those who arrange [each] matter
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, that Day, will tremble
أَبۡصَٰرُهَا خَٰشِعَةٞ
Their eyes 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
قَالُواْ تِلۡكَ إِذٗا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٞ
They say, "That, then, would be a losing return
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 Tuwa
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
فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ
But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed
ثُمَّ أَدۡبَرَ يَسۡعَىٰ
Then he turned his back, striving
فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ
And he gathered [his people] and called out
فَقَالَ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ
And said, "I am your most exalted lord
فَأَخَذَهُ ٱللَّهُ نَكَالَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰٓ
So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression]
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبۡرَةٗ لِّمَن يَخۡشَىٰٓ
Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah]
ءَأَنتُمۡ أَشَدُّ خَلۡقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُۚ بَنَىٰهَا
Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it
رَفَعَ سَمۡكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا
He raised its ceiling and proportioned it
وَأَغۡطَشَ لَيۡلَهَا وَأَخۡرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا
And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness
وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ
And after that He spread the earth
