54:1

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ

The Hour has drawn near, and the moon has split.

2

54:2

وَإِنْ يَرَوْا آيَةً يُعْرِضُوا وَيَقُولُوا سِحْرٌ مُسْتَمِرٌّ

Yet whenever they see a miracle, they turn away, and say, “Continuous magic.”

3

54:3

وَكَذَّبُوا وَاتَّبَعُوا أَهْوَاءَهُمْ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ مُسْتَقِرٌّ

They lied, and followed their opinions, but everything has its time.

4

54:4

وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ مِنَ الْأَنْبَاءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ

And there came to them news containing a deterrent.

حِكْمَةٌ بَالِغَةٌ فَمَا تُغْنِ النُّذُرُ

Profound wisdom—but warnings are of no avail.

54:6

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ الدَّاعِ إِلَى شَيْءٍ نُكُرٍ

So turn away from them. On the Day when the Caller calls to something terrible.

7

54:7

خُشَّعًا أَبْصَارُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُنْتَشِرٌ

Their eyes humiliated, they will emerge from the graves, as if they were swarming locusts.

8

54:8

مُهْطِعِينَ إِلَى الدَّاعِ يَقُولُ الْكَافِرُونَ هَذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ

Scrambling towards the Caller, the disbelievers will say, “This is a difficult Day.”

9

54:9

كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ فَكَذَّبُوا عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا مَجْنُونٌ وَازْدُجِرَ

Before them the people of Noah disbelieved. They rejected Our servant, and said, “Crazy,” and he was rebuked.

10

54:10

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَغْلُوبٌ فَانْتَصِرْ

So he appealed to his Lord, “I am overwhelmed, so help me.”

11

54:11

فَفَتَحْنَا أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَاءٍ مُنْهَمِرٍ

So We opened the floodgates of heaven with water pouring down.

12

54:12

وَفَجَّرْنَا الْأَرْضَ عُيُونًا فَالْتَقَى الْمَاءُ عَلَى أَمْرٍ قَدْ قُدِرَ

And We made the earth burst with springs, and the waters met for a purpose already destined.

وَحَمَلْنَاهُ عَلَى ذَاتِ أَلْوَاحٍ وَدُسُرٍ

And We carried him on a craft of planks and nails.

14

تَجْرِي بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَاءً لِمَنْ كَانَ كُفِرَ

Sailing before Our eyes; a reward for him who was rejected.

15

54:15

وَلَقَدْ تَرَكْنَاهَا آيَةً فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ

And We left it as a sign. Is there anyone who would take heed?

فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ

So how were My punishment and My warnings?

إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًا صَرْصَرًا فِي يَوْمِ نَحْسٍ مُسْتَمِرٍّ

We unleashed upon them a screaming wind, on a day of unrelenting misery.

20

54:20

تَنْزِعُ النَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍ مُنْقَعِرٍ

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِالنُّذُرِ

Thamood rejected the warnings.

24

فَقَالُوا أَبَشَرًا مِنَّا وَاحِدًا نَتَّبِعُهُ إِنَّا إِذًا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ وَسُعُرٍ

They said, “Are we to follow one of us, a human being? We would then go astray, and end up in Hell.

25

54:25

أَأُلْقِيَ الذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌ

Was the message given to him, out of all of us? In fact, he is a wicked liar.”
