Surah An-Naba

إِنَّجَهَنَّمَكَانَتْمِرْصَادًۭا

[On that Day,] verily, hell will lie in wait [for those who deny the truth] –

لِّلطَّٰغِينَمَـَٔابًۭا

a goal for all who are wont to transgress the bounds of what is right!

لَّٰبِثِينَفِيهَآأَحْقَابًۭا

In it shall they remain for a long time.

لَّايَذُوقُونَفِيهَابَرْدًۭاوَلَاشَرَابًا

Neither coolness shall they taste therein nor any [thirst-quenching] drink –

إِلَّاحَمِيمًۭاوَغَسَّاقًۭا

only burning despair and ice-cold darkness:

جَزَآءًۭوِفَاقًا

a meet requital [for their sins]!

إِنَّهُمْكَانُوا۟لَايَرْجُونَحِسَابًۭا

Behold, they were not expecting to be called to account,

وَكَذَّبُوا۟بِـَٔايَٰتِنَاكِذَّابًۭا

having given the lie to Our messages one and all:

وَكُلَّشَىْءٍأَحْصَيْنَٰهُكِتَٰبًۭا

but We have placed on record every single thing [of what they did].

فَذُوقُوا۟فَلَننَّزِيدَكُمْإِلَّاعَذَابًا

[And so We shall say:] "Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil doings,] for now We shall bestow on you nothing but more and more suffering!"

إِنَّلِلْمُتَّقِينَمَفَازًا

[But,] verily for the God-conscious there is supreme fulfilment in store:

حَدَآئِقَوَأَعْنَٰبًۭا

luxuriant gardens and vinyards,

وَكَوَاعِبَأَتْرَابًۭا

and splendid companions well matched,

وَكَأْسًۭادِهَاقًۭا

and a cup [of happiness] overflowing.

لَّايَسْمَعُونَفِيهَالَغْوًۭاوَلَاكِذَّٰبًۭا

No empty talk will they hear in that [paradise], nor any lie.

جَزَآءًۭمِّنرَّبِّكَعَطَآءًحِسَابًۭا

[All this will be] a reward from thy Sustainer, a gift in accordance with [His Own] reckoning –

رَّبِّٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِوَمَابَيْنَهُمَاٱلرَّحْمَٰنِلَايَمْلِكُونَمِنْهُخِطَابًۭا

[a reward from] the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the Most Gracious! [And] none shall have it in their power to raise their voices unto Him

يَوْمَيَقُومُٱلرُّوحُوَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُصَفًّۭالَّايَتَكَلَّمُونَإِلَّامَنْأَذِنَلَهُٱلرَّحْمَٰنُوَقَالَصَوَابًۭا

on the Day when all [human] souls and all the angels will stand up in ranks: none will speak but he to whom the Most Gracious will have given leave; and [everyone] will say [only] what is right.

ذَٰلِكَٱلْيَوْمُٱلْحَقُّفَمَنشَآءَٱتَّخَذَإِلَىٰرَبِّهِۦمَـَٔابًا

That will be the Day of Ultimate Truth: whoever wills, then, let him take the path that leads towards his Sustainer!

إِنَّآأَنذَرْنَٰكُمْعَذَابًۭاقَرِيبًۭايَوْمَيَنظُرُٱلْمَرْءُمَاقَدَّمَتْيَدَاهُوَيَقُولُٱلْكَافِرُيَٰلَيْتَنِىكُنتُتُرَٰبًۢا

Verily, We have warned you of suffering near at hand - [suffering] on the Day when man shall [clearly] see what his hands have sent ahead, and when he who has denied the truth shall say, "Oh, would that I were mere dust...!"
