52. The Mountain (Al-Tur)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
<section
begin="52:1"/>By the Mountain! <section
end="52:1"/>
<section
begin="52:2"/>And a Book written <section
end="52:2"/>
<section
begin="52:3"/>On unfolded vellum! <section
end="52:3"/>
<section
begin="52:4"/>And the frequented House, <section
end="52:4"/>
<section
begin="52:5"/>And the elevated canopy, <section
end="52:5"/>
<section
begin="52:6"/>And the swollen sea! <section
end="52:6"/>
<section
begin="52:7"/>The chastisement of thy Lord will surely come to pass -- <section
end="52:7"/>
<section
begin="52:8"/>There is none to avert it; <section
end="52:8"/>
<section
begin="52:9"/>On the day when the heaven will be in a state of commotion, <section end="52:9"/>
<section
begin="52:10"/>And the mountains will pass away, fleeing. <section
end="52:10"/>
<section
begin="52:11"/>Woe on that day to the deniers, <section
end="52:11"/>
<section
begin="52:12"/>Who amuse themselves by vain talk. <section
end="52:12"/>
<section
begin="52:13"/>The day when they are driven to hell-fire with violence. <section
end="52:13"/>
<section
begin="52:14"/>This is the Fire, which you gave the lie to. <section
end="52:14"/>
<section
begin="52:15"/>Is it magic or do you not see? <section
end="52:15"/>
<section
begin="52:16"/>Burn in it, then bear (it) patiently, or bear (it) not, it is the same to you. Your are requited only for what you did. <section end="52:16"/>
<section
begin="52:17"/>The dutiful will be surely in Gardens and bliss, <section
end="52:17"/>
<section
begin="52:18"/>Rejoicing because of what their Lord has given them; and their Lord saved them from the chastisement of the burning Fire. <section end="52:18"/>
<section
begin="52:19"/>Eat and drink with pleasure for what you did, <section
end="52:19"/>
<section
begin="52:20"/>Reclining on thrones set in lines, and We shall join them to pure beautiful ones. <section end="52:20"/>
<section
begin="52:21"/>And those who believe and whose offspring follow them in faith -- We unite with them their offspring and We shall deprive them of naught of their work. Every man is pledged for what he does. <section end="52:21"/>
<section
begin="52:22"/>And We shall aid them with fruit and flesh, as they desire. <section end="52:22"/>
<section
begin="52:23"/>They pass therein from one to another a cup, wherein is neither vanity, nor sin. <section end="52:23"/>
<section
begin="52:24"/>And round them go boys of theirs as if they were hidden pearls. <section end="52:24"/>
<section
begin="52:25"/>And they will advance to each other, questioning <section
end="52:25"/>
<section
begin="52:26"/>Saying: Surely we feared before on account of our families. <section end="52:26"/>
<section
begin="52:27"/>But Allah has been gracious to us and He has saved us from the chastisement of the hot wind. <section end="52:27"/>
<section
begin="52:28"/>Surely We called upon Him before. Surely, He is the Benign, the Merciful. <section end="52:28"/>
<section
begin="52:29"/>So remind for, by the grace of thy Lord thou art no soothsayer, nor madman. <section end="52:29"/>
<section
begin="52:30"/>Or say they: A poet -- we wait for him the evil accidents of time. <section end="52:30"/>
<section
begin="52:31"/>Say: Wait, I too wait along with you. <section
end="52:31"/>
<section
begin="52:32"/>Or do their understandings bid them this? Or are they an inordinate people? <section end="52:32"/>
<section
begin="52:33"/>Or say they: He has forged it. Nay, they have no faith. <section
end="52:33"/>
<section
begin="52:34"/>Then let them bring a saying like it, if they are truthful. <section end="52:34"/>
