51. Az-Zâriyât
51. Az-Zâriyât
| 1. | By (the winds) that scatter dust. |
| 2. | And (the clouds) that bear heavy weight of water; |
| 3. | And (the ships) that float with ease and gentleness; |
| 4. | And those (angels) who distribute (provisions, rain, and other blessings) by (Allâh's) Command; |
| 5. | Verily, that which you are promised (i.e. Resurrection in the Hereafter and receiving the reward or punishment of good or bad deeds, etc.) is surely true. |
| 6. | And verily, the Recompense is sure to happen. |
| 7. | By the heaven full of paths, |
| 8. | Certainly, you have different ideas (about Muhammad SAW and the Qur'ân). |
| 9. | Turned aside therefrom (i.e. from Muhammad SAW and the Qur'ân) is he who is turned aside (by the Decree and Preordainment of Allâh). |
| 10. | Cursed be the liars, |
| 11. | Who are under a cover of heedlessness (think not about the gravity of the Hereafter), |
| 12. | They ask;"When will be the Day of Recompense?" |
| 13. | (It will be) a Day when they will be tried (i.e. burnt) over the Fire! |
| 14. | "Taste you your trial (burning)! This is what you used to ask to be hastened!" |
| 15. | Verily, the Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2) will be in the midst of Gardens and Springs (in the Paradise), |
| 16. | Taking joy in the things which their Lord has given them. Verily, they were before this Muhsinûn (good-doers - see V.2:112). |
| 17. | They used to sleep but little by night [invoking their Lord (Allâh) and praying, with fear and hope]. |
| 18. | And in the hours before dawn, they were (found) asking (Allâh) for forgiveness, |
| 19. | And in their properties there was the right of the beggar, and the Mahrûm (the poor who does not ask the others)[] , |
| 20. | And on the earth are signs for those who have Faith with certainty, |
| 21. | And also in your ownselves. Will you not then see? |
| 22. | And in the heaven is your provision, and that which you are promised. |
| 23. | Then, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, it is the truth (i.e. what has been promised to you), just as it is the truth that you can speak. |
| 24. | Has the story reached you, of the honoured guests [three angels; Jibrael (Gabriel) along with another two] of Ibrahîm (Abraham)? |
| 25. | When they came in to him, and said, "Salâm, (peace be upon you)!" He answered;"Salâm, (peace be upon you )," and said: "You are a people unknown to me," |
| 26. | Then he turned to his household, so brought out a roasted calf [as the property of Ibrahîm (Abraham) was mainly cows]. |
| 27. | And placed it before them, (saying): "Will you not eat?" |
| 28. | Then he conceived a fear of them (when they ate not). They said: "Fear not."[] And they gave him glad tidings of an intelligent son, having knowledge (about Allâh and His religion of True Monotheism). |
| 29. | Then his wife came forward with a loud voice, she smote her face, and said: "A barren old woman!"[] |
| 30. | They said: "Even so says your Lord.[] Verily, He is the All-Wise, the All-Knower." |
| 31. | [Ibrâhim (Abraham)] said: "Then for what purpose you have come, O Messengers?" |
| 32. | They said: "We have been sent to a people who are Mujrimûn (polytheists, sinners, criminals, disbelievers in Allâh); |
| 33. | To send down upon them stones of baked clay. |
| 34. | Marked by your Lord for the Musrifûn (polytheists, criminals, sinners those who trespass Allâh's set limits in evil-doings by committing great sins). |
| 35. | So We brought out from therein the believers. |
| 36. | But We found not there any household of the Muslims except one [i.e. Lout (Lot) and his two daughters]. |
| 37. | And We have left there a sign (i.e. the place of the Dead Sea[] , well-known in Palestine) for those who fear the painful torment. |
| 38. | And in Mûsa (Moses) (too, there is a sign). When We sent him to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) with a manifest authority. |
| 39. | But [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] turned away (from Belief in might) along with his hosts, and said: "A sorcerer, or a madman." |
| 40. | So We took him and his hosts, and dumped them into the sea, while he was to be blamed. |
| 41. | And in 'Ad (there is also a sign) when We sent against them the barren wind; |
| 42. | It spared nothing that it reached, but blew it into broken spreads of rotten ruins. |
| 43. | And in Thamûd (there is also a sign), when they were told: "Enjoy yourselves for a while!" |
| 44. | But they insolently defied the Command of their Lord, so the Sâ'iqah[] overtook them while they were looking. |
| 45. | Then they were unable to rise up, nor could they help themselves. |
| 46. | (So were) the people of Nûh (Noah) before them. Verily, they were a people who were Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). |
| 47. | With power did We construct the heaven. Verily, We are Able to extend the vastness of space thereof. |
| 48. | And We have spread out the earth, how Excellent Spreader (thereof) are We! |
| 49. | And of everything We have created pairs, that you may remember (the Grace of Allâh). |
| 50. | So flee to Allâh (from His Torment to His Mercy Islâmic Monotheism), verily, I (Muhammad SAW) am a plain warner to you from Him.[] |
| 51. | And set not up (or worship) any other ilâhan (god) along with Allâh [Glorified be He (Alone), Exalted above all that they associate as partners with Him]. Verily, I (Muhammad SAW) am a plain warner to you from Him. |
| 52. | Likewise, no Messenger came to those before them, but they said: "A sorcerer or a madman!" |
| 53. | Have they (the people of the past) transmitted this saying to these (Quraish pagans)? Nay, they are themselves a people transgressing beyond bounds (in disbelief)! |
| 54. | So turn away (O Muhammad SAW) from them (Quraish pagans) you are not to be blamed (as you have conveyed Allâh's Message). |
| 55. | And remind (by preaching the Qur'ân, O Muhammad SAW) for verily, the reminding profits the believers. |
| 56. | And I (Allâh) created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone). |
| 57. | I seek not any provision from them (i.e. provision for themselves or for My creatures) nor do I ask that they should feed Me (i.e. feed themselves or My creatures). |
| 58. | Verily, Allâh is the All-Provider, Owner of Power, the Most Strong. |
| 59. | And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a portion of torment like to the evil portion of torment (which came for) their likes (of old), so let them not ask Me to hasten on! |
| 60. | Then, woe to those who disbelieve (in Allâh and His Oneness Islâmic Monotheism) from (that) their Day which they have been promised (for their punishment).[] |
