   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ١

   The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two].

   وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ ءَايَةًۭ يُعْرِضُوا۟ وَيَقُولُوا۟ سِحْرٌۭ مُّسْتَمِرٌّۭ٢

   And if they see a miracle, they turn away and say, "Passing magic."

   وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍۢ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ٣

   And they denied and followed their inclinations. But for every matter is a [time of] settlement.

   وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَنۢبَآءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ٤

   And there has already come to them of information that in which there is deterrence -

   حِكْمَةٌۢ بَٰلِغَةٌۭ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ٥

   Extensive wisdom - but warning does not avail [them].

   فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ ٱلدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَىْءٍۢ نُّكُرٍ٦

   So leave them, [O Muhammad]. The Day the Caller calls to something forbidding,

   خُشَّعًا أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌۭ مُّنتَشِرٌۭ٧

   Their eyes humbled, they will emerge from the graves as if they were locusts spreading,

   مُّهْطِعِينَ إِلَى ٱلدَّاعِ ۖ يَقُولُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌۭ٨

   Racing ahead toward the Caller. The disbelievers will say, "This is a difficult Day."

   ۞ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍۢ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجْنُونٌۭ وَٱزْدُجِرَ٩

   The people of Noah denied before them, and they denied Our servant and said, "A madman," and he was repelled.

   فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّى مَغْلُوبٌۭ فَٱنتَصِرْ١٠

   So he invoked his Lord, "Indeed, I am overpowered, so help."

   فَفَتَحْنَآ أَبْوَٰبَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَآءٍۢ مُّنْهَمِرٍۢ١١

   Then We opened the gates of the heaven with rain pouring down

   وَفَجَّرْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ عُيُونًۭا فَٱلْتَقَى ٱلْمَآءُ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْرٍۢ قَدْ قُدِرَ١٢

   And caused the earth to burst with springs, and the waters met for a matter already predestined.

   وَحَمَلْنَٰهُ عَلَىٰ ذَاتِ أَلْوَٰحٍۢ وَدُسُرٍۢ١٣

   And We carried him on a [construction of] planks and nails,

   تَجْرِى بِأَعْيُنِنَا جَزَآءًۭ لِّمَن كَانَ كُفِرَ١٤

   Sailing under Our observation as reward for he who had been denied.

   وَلَقَد تَّرَكْنَٰهَآ ءَايَةًۭ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ١٥

   And We left it as a sign, so is there any who will remember?

   فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ١٦

   And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

   وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ١٧

   And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

   كَذَّبَتْ عَادٌۭ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ١٨

   'Aad denied; and how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

   إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًۭا صَرْصَرًۭا فِى يَوْمِ نَحْسٍۢ مُّسْتَمِرٍّۢ١٩

   Indeed, We sent upon them a screaming wind on a day of continuous misfortune,

   تَنزِعُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمْ أَعْجَازُ نَخْلٍۢ مُّنقَعِرٍۢ٢٠

   Extracting the people as if they were trunks of palm trees uprooted.

   فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ٢١

   And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

   وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ٢٢

   And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

   كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ٢٣

   Thamud denied the warning

   فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَبَشَرًۭا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدًۭا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذًۭا لَّفِى ضَلَٰلٍۢ وَسُعُرٍ٢٤

   And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness.

   أَءُلْقِىَ ٱلذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنۢ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌۭ٢٥

   Has the message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar."

   سَيَعْلَمُونَ غَدًۭا مَّنِ ٱلْكَذَّابُ ٱلْأَشِرُ٢٦

   They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.

   إِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةًۭ لَّهُمْ فَٱرْتَقِبْهُمْ وَٱصْطَبِرْ٢٧

   Indeed, We are sending the she-camel as trial for them, so watch them and be patient.

   وَنَبِّئْهُمْ أَنَّ ٱلْمَآءَ قِسْمَةٌۢ بَيْنَهُمْ ۖ كُلُّ شِرْبٍۢ مُّحْتَضَرٌۭ٢٨

   And inform them that the water is shared between them, each [day of] drink attended [by turn].

   فَنَادَوْا۟ صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ٢٩

   But they called their companion, and he dared and hamstrung [her].

   فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ٣٠

   And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.

   إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ صَيْحَةًۭ وَٰحِدَةًۭ فَكَانُوا۟ كَهَشِيمِ ٱلْمُحْتَظِرِ٣١

   Indeed, We sent upon them one blast from the sky, and they became like the dry twig fragments of an [animal] pen.

   وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ٣٢

   And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

   كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ٣٣

   The people of Lot denied the warning.

   إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَاصِبًا إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍۢ ۖ نَّجَّيْنَٰهُم بِسَحَرٍۢ٣٤

   Indeed, We sent upon them a storm of stones, except the family of Lot - We saved them before dawn

   نِّعْمَةًۭ مِّنْ عِندِنَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى مَن شَكَرَ٣٥

   As favor from us. Thus do We reward he who is grateful.

   وَلَقَدْ أَنذَرَهُم بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْا۟ بِٱلنُّذُرِ٣٦

   And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warning.

   وَلَقَدْ رَٰوَدُوهُ عَن ضَيْفِهِۦ فَطَمَسْنَآ أَعْيُنَهُمْ فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ٣٧

   And they had demanded from him his guests, but We obliterated their eyes, [saying], "Taste My punishment and warning."

   وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُم بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌۭ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ٣٨

   And there came upon them by morning an abiding punishment.

   فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ٣٩

   So taste My punishment and warning.

   وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍۢ٤٠

   And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   وَٱلنَّٰزِعَٰتِ غَرْقًۭا١

   By those [angels] who extract with violence

   وَٱلنَّٰشِطَٰتِ نَشْطًۭا٢

   And [by] those who remove with ease

   وَٱلسَّٰبِحَٰتِ سَبْحًۭا٣

   And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

   فَٱلسَّٰبِقَٰتِ سَبْقًۭا٤

   And those who race each other in a race

   فَٱلْمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمْرًۭا٥

   And those who arrange [each] matter,

   يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ٦

   On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

   تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ٧

   There will follow it the subsequent [one].

   قُلُوبٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ وَاجِفَةٌ٨

   Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

   أَبْصَٰرُهَا خَٰشِعَةٌۭ٩

   Their eyes humbled.

   يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى ٱلْحَافِرَةِ١٠

   They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?

   أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَٰمًۭا نَّخِرَةًۭ١١

   Even if we should be decayed bones?

   قَالُوا۟ تِلْكَ إِذًۭا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌۭ١٢

   They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."

   فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌۭ وَٰحِدَةٌۭ١٣

   Indeed, it will be but one shout,

   فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ١٤

   And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.

   هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ١٥

   Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

   إِذْ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى١٦

   When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

   ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ١٧

   "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

   فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ١٨

   And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself

   وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ١٩

   And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"

   فَأَرَىٰهُ ٱلْءَايَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ٢٠

   And he showed him the greatest sign,

   فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ٢١

   But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

   ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَىٰ٢٢

   Then he turned his back, striving.

   فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ٢٣

   And he gathered [his people] and called out

   فَقَالَ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ٢٤

   And said, "I am your most exalted lord."

   فَأَخَذَهُ ٱللَّهُ نَكَالَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَٱلْأُولَىٰٓ٢٥

   So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

   إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةًۭ لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ٢٦

   Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

   ءَأَنتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ ۚ بَنَىٰهَا٢٧

   Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

   رَفَعَ سَمْكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا٢٨

   He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

   وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا٢٩

   And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

   وَٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ٣٠

   And after that He spread the earth.

   أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَآءَهَا وَمَرْعَىٰهَا٣١

   He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

   وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَرْسَىٰهَا٣٢

   And the mountains He set firmly

   مَتَٰعًۭا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَٰمِكُمْ٣٣

   As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

   فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلطَّآمَّةُ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ٣٤

   But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

   يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ٣٥

   The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

   وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ٣٦

   And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

   فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ٣٧

   So as for he who transgressed

   وَءَاثَرَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا٣٨

   And preferred the life of the world,

   فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ٣٩

   Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

   وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفْسَ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ٤٠

   But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,
