هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَـٰشِيَةِ

Hal ataaka hadeesul ghaashiyah

Has there come to you the news of the overwhelming

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ

Wujoohuny yawma 'izin khaashi'ah

Faces on that Day will be shamed

عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ

'Aamilatun naasibah

Laboring and exhausted

تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً

Taslaa naaran haamiyah

Roasting in a scorching Fire

تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ

Tusqaa min 'aynin aaniyah

Given to drink from a flaming spring

لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ

Laisa lahum ta'aamun illaa min daree'

They will have no food except thorns

لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ

Laa yusminu wa laa yughnee min joo'

That neither nourishes, nor satisfies hunger

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ

Wujoohuny yawma 'izin naa'imah

Faces on that Day will be joyful

لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ

Lisa'yihaa raadiyah

Satisfied with their endeavor

فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ

Fee jannatin 'aaliyah

In a lofty Garden

لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَـٰغِيَةً

Laa tasma'u feehaa laaghiyah

In it you will hear no nonsense

فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ

Feehaa 'aynun jaariyah

In it is a flowing spring

فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ

Feehaa sururum marfoo'ah

In it are raised beds

وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ

Wa akwaabum mawdoo 'ah

And cups set in place

وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ

Wa namaariqu masfoofah

And cushions set in rows

وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ

Wa zaraabiyyu mabsoosah

And carpets spread around

أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ

Afalaa yanzuroona ilalibili kaifa khuliqat

Do they not look at the camels—how they are created

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ

Wa ilas samaaa'i kaifa rufi'at

And at the sky—how it is raised

وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ

Wa ilal jibaali kaifa nusibat

And at the mountains—how they are installed

وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ

Wa ilal ardi kaifa sutihat

And at the earth—how it is spread out

فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ

Fazakkir innama anta Muzakkir

So remind. You are only a reminder

لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ

Lasta 'alaihim bimusaitir

You have no control over them

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ

Illaa man tawallaa wa kafar

But whoever turns away and disbelieves

فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ

Fa yu'azzibuhul laahul 'azaabal akbar

God will punish him with the greatest punishment

إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ

Innaa ilainaaa iyaabahum

To Us is their return

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم

Summa inna 'alainaa hisaabahum

Then upon Us rests their reckoning
