Surah 69

	Al Hâqqah Surah 69. The Reality

69:1	The Sure Reality!
	Alhaqqatu
69:2	What is the Sure Reality?
	Ma alhaqqatu
69:3	And what will make thee realise what the Sure Reality is?
	Wama adraka ma alhaqqatu
69:4	The Thamud and the ‘Ad People (branded) as false the Stunning Calamity!
	Kaththabat thamoodu waAAadun bialqariAAati
69:5	But the Thamud,- they were destroyed by a terrible Storm of thunder and lightning!
	Faamma thamoodu faohlikoo bialttaghiyati
69:6	And the ‘Ad, they were destroyed by a furious Wind, exceedingly violent;
	Waamma AAadun faohlikoo bireehinsarsarin AAatiyatin
69:7	He made it rage against them seven nights and eight days in succession: so that thou couldst see the (whole) people lying prostrate in its (path), as they had been roots of hollow palm-trees tumbled down!
	Sakhkharaha AAalayhim sabAAa layalinwathamaniyata ayyamin husooman fataraalqawma feeha sarAAa kaannahum aAAjazunakhlin khawiyatun
69:8	Then seest thou any of them left surviving?
	Fahal tara lahum min baqiyatin
69:9	And Pharaoh, and those before him, and the Cities Overthrown, committed habitual Sin.
	Wajaa firAAawnu waman qablahu waalmu/tafikatubialkhati-ati
69:10	And disobeyed (each) the apostle of their Lord; so He punished them with an abundant Penalty.
	FaAAasaw rasoola rabbihim faakhathahumakhthatan rabiyatan
69:11	We, when the water (of Noah’s Flood) overflowed beyond its limits, carried you (mankind), in the floating (Ark),
	Inna lamma taghaalmao hamalnakum fee aljariyati
69:12	That We might make it a Message unto you, and that ears (that should hear the tale and) retain its memory should bear its (lessons) in remembrance.
	LinajAAalaha lakum tathkiratanwataAAiyaha othunun waAAiyatun
69:13	Then, when one blast is sounded on the Trumpet,
	Fa-itha nufikha fee alssoorinafkhatun wahidatun
69:14	And the earth is moved, and its mountains, and they are crushed to powder at one stroke,-
	Wahumilati al-ardu waaljibalufadukkata dakkatan wahidatan
69:15	On that Day shall the (Great) Event come to pass.
	Fayawma-ithin waqaAAati alwaqiAAatu
69:16	And the sky will be rent asunder, for it will that Day be flimsy,
	Wainshaqqati alssamaofahiya yawma-ithin wahiyatun
69:17	And the angels will be on its sides, and eight will, that Day, bear the Throne of thy Lord above them.
	Waalmalaku AAala arja-ihawayahmilu AAarsha rabbika fawqahum yawma-ithin thamaniyatun
69:18	That Day shall ye be brought to Judgment: not an act of yours that ye hide will be hidden.
	Yawma-ithin tuAAradoona latakhfa minkum khafiyatun
69:19	Then he that will be given his Record in his right hand will say: “Ah here! Read ye my Record!
	Faamma man ootiya kitabahubiyameenihi fayaqoolu haomu iqraoo kitabiyah
69:20	“I did really understand that my Account would (One Day) reach me!”
	Innee thanantu annee mulaqinhisabiyah
69:21	And he will be in a life of Bliss,
	Fahuwa fee AAeeshatin radiyatin
69:22	In a Garden on high,
	Fee jannatin AAaliyatin
69:23	The Fruits whereof (will hang in bunches) low and near.
	Qutoofuha daniyatun
69:24	“Eat ye and drink ye, with full satisfaction; because of the (good) that ye sent before you, in the days that are gone!”
	Kuloo waishraboo hanee-an bimaaslaftum fee al-ayyami alkhaliyati
69:25	And he that will be given his Record in his left hand, will say: “Ah! Would that my Record had not been given to me!
	Waamma man ootiya kitabahubishimalihi fayaqoolu ya laytanee lam oota kitabiyah
69:26	“And that I had never realised how my account (stood)!
	Walam adri ma hisabiyah
69:27	“Ah! Would that (Death) had made an end of me!
	Ya laytaha kanati alqadiyatu
69:28	“Of no profit to me has been my wealth!
	Ma aghna AAannee maliyah
69:29	“My power has perished from me!”…
	Halaka AAannee sultaniyah
69:30	(The stern command will say): “Seize ye him, and bind ye him,
	Khuthoohu faghulloohu
69:31	“And burn ye him in the Blazing Fire.
	Thumma aljaheema salloohu
69:32	“Further, make him march in a chain, whereof the length is seventy cubits!
	Thumma fee silsilatin tharAAuhasabAAoona thiraAAan faoslukoohu
69:33	“This was he that would not believe in Allah Most High.
	Innahu kana la yu/minu biAllahialAAatheemi
69:34	“And would not encourage the feeding of the indigent!
	Wala yahuddu AAalataAAami almiskeeni
69:35	“So no friend hath he here this Day.
	Falaysa lahu alyawma hahuna hameemun
69:36	“Nor hath he any food except the corruption from the washing of wounds,
	Wala taAAamun illamin ghisleenin
69:37	“Which none do eat but those in sin.”
	La ya/kuluhu illa alkhati-oona
69:38	So I do call to witness what ye see,
	Fala oqsimu bima tubsiroona
69:39	And what ye see not,
	Wama la tubsiroona
69:40	That this is verily the word of an honoured apostle;
	Innahu laqawlu rasoolin kareemin
69:41	It is not the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!
	Wama huwa biqawli shaAAirinqaleelan ma tu/minoona
69:42	Nor is it the word of a soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.
	Wala biqawli kahinin qaleelanma tathakkaroona
69:43	(This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.
	Tanzeelun min rabbi alAAalameena
69:44	And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name,
	Walaw taqawwala AAalayna baAAdaal-aqaweeli
69:45	We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
	Laakhathna minhu bialyameeni
69:46	And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
	Thumma laqataAAna minhualwateena
69:47	Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).
	Fama minkum min ahadin AAanhu hajizeena
69:48	But verily this is a Message for the Allah-fearing.
	Wa-innahu latathkiratun lilmuttaqeena
69:49	And We certainly know that there are amongst you those that reject (it).
	Wa-inna lanaAAlamu anna minkum mukaththibeena
69:50	But truly (Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers.
	Wa-innahu lahasratun AAala alkafireena
69:51	But verily it is Truth of assured certainty.
	Wa-innahu lahaqqu alyaqeeni
69:52	So glorify the name of thy Lord Most High.
	Fasabbih biismi rabbika alAAatheemi
