   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْمُدَّثِّرُ١

   O you who covers himself [with a garment],

   قُمْ فَأَنذِرْ٢

   Arise and warn

   وَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْ٣

   And your Lord glorify

   وَثِيَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ٤

   And your clothing purify

   وَٱلرُّجْزَ فَٱهْجُرْ٥

   And uncleanliness avoid

   وَلَا تَمْنُن تَسْتَكْثِرُ٦

   And do not confer favor to acquire more

   وَلِرَبِّكَ فَٱصْبِرْ٧

   But for your Lord be patient.

   فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِى ٱلنَّاقُورِ٨

   And when the trumpet is blown,

   فَذَٰلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌ٩

   That Day will be a difficult day

   عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ غَيْرُ يَسِيرٍۢ١٠

   For the disbelievers - not easy.

   ذَرْنِى وَمَنْ خَلَقْتُ وَحِيدًۭا١١

   Leave Me with the one I created alone

   وَجَعَلْتُ لَهُۥ مَالًۭا مَّمْدُودًۭا١٢

   And to whom I granted extensive wealth

   وَبَنِينَ شُهُودًۭا١٣

   And children present [with him]

   وَمَهَّدتُّ لَهُۥ تَمْهِيدًۭا١٤

   And spread [everything] before him, easing [his life].

   ثُمَّ يَطْمَعُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ١٥

   Then he desires that I should add more.

   كَلَّآ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لِءَايَٰتِنَا عَنِيدًۭا١٦

   No! Indeed, he has been toward Our verses obstinate.

   سَأُرْهِقُهُۥ صَعُودًا١٧

   I will cover him with arduous torment.

   إِنَّهُۥ فَكَّرَ وَقَدَّرَ١٨

   Indeed, he thought and deliberated.

   فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ١٩

   So may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.

   ثُمَّ قُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ٢٠

   Then may he be destroyed [for] how he deliberated.

   ثُمَّ نَظَرَ٢١

   Then he considered [again];

   ثُمَّ عَبَسَ وَبَسَرَ٢٢

   Then he frowned and scowled;

   ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ وَٱسْتَكْبَرَ٢٣

   Then he turned back and was arrogant

   فَقَالَ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌۭ يُؤْثَرُ٢٤

   And said, "This is not but magic imitated [from others].

   إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا قَوْلُ ٱلْبَشَرِ٢٥

   This is not but the word of a human being."

   سَأُصْلِيهِ سَقَرَ٢٦

   I will drive him into Saqar.

   وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سَقَرُ٢٧

   And what can make you know what is Saqar?

   لَا تُبْقِى وَلَا تَذَرُ٢٨

   It lets nothing remain and leaves nothing [unburned],

   لَوَّاحَةٌۭ لِّلْبَشَرِ٢٩

   Blackening the skins.

   عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ٣٠

   Over it are nineteen [angels].

   وَمَا جَعَلْنَآ أَصْحَٰبَ ٱلنَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَٰٓئِكَةًۭ ۙ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا فِتْنَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَيَزْدَادَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِيمَٰنًۭا ۙ وَلَا يَرْتَابَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۙ وَلِيَقُولَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌۭ وَٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ مَاذَآ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلًۭا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ وَمَا هِىَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَىٰ لِلْبَشَرِ٣١

   And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is hypocrisy and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allah intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allah leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And mention of the Fire is not but a reminder to humanity.

   كَلَّا وَٱلْقَمَرِ٣٢

   No! By the moon

   وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذْ أَدْبَرَ٣٣

   And [by] the night when it departs

   وَٱلصُّبْحِ إِذَآ أَسْفَرَ٣٤

   And [by] the morning when it brightens,

   إِنَّهَا لَإِحْدَى ٱلْكُبَرِ٣٥

   Indeed, the Fire is of the greatest [afflictions]

   نَذِيرًۭا لِّلْبَشَرِ٣٦

   As a warning to humanity -

   لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ٣٧

   To whoever wills among you to proceed or stay behind.

   كُلُّ نَفْسٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَةٌ٣٨

   Every soul, for what it has earned, will be retained

   إِلَّآ أَصْحَٰبَ ٱلْيَمِينِ٣٩

   Except the companions of the right,

   فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ٤٠

   [Who will be] in gardens, questioning each other

   Read the passage · Faatir 1–8

   بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

   ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ فَاطِرِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ جَاعِلِ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ رُسُلًا أُو۟لِىٓ أَجْنِحَةٍۢ مَّثْنَىٰ وَثُلَٰثَ وَرُبَٰعَ ۚ يَزِيدُ فِى ٱلْخَلْقِ مَا يَشَآءُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ١

   [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, [who] made the angels messengers having wings, two or three or four. He increases in creation what He wills. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.

   مَّا يَفْتَحِ ٱللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ مِن رَّحْمَةٍۢ فَلَا مُمْسِكَ لَهَا ۖ وَمَا يُمْسِكْ فَلَا مُرْسِلَ لَهُۥ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ٢

   Whatever Allah grants to people of mercy - none can withhold it; and whatever He withholds - none can release it thereafter. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

   يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ هَلْ مِنْ خَٰلِقٍ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ يَرْزُقُكُم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ٣

   O mankind, remember the favor of Allah upon you. Is there any creator other than Allah who provides for you from the heaven and earth? There is no deity except Him, so how are you deluded?

   وَإِن يُكَذِّبُوكَ فَقَدْ كُذِّبَتْ رُسُلٌۭ مِّن قَبْلِكَ ۚ وَإِلَى ٱللَّهِ تُرْجَعُ ٱلْأُمُورُ٤

   And if they deny you, [O Muhammad] - already were messengers denied before you. And to Allah are returned [all] matters.

   يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّۭ ۖ فَلَا تَغُرَّنَّكُمُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَا يَغُرَّنَّكُم بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْغَرُورُ٥

   O mankind, indeed the promise of Allah is truth, so let not the worldly life delude you and be not deceived about Allah by the Deceiver.

   إِنَّ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنَ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّۭ فَٱتَّخِذُوهُ عَدُوًّا ۚ إِنَّمَا يَدْعُوا۟ حِزْبَهُۥ لِيَكُونُوا۟ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ٦

   Indeed, Satan is an enemy to you; so take him as an enemy. He only invites his party to be among the companions of the Blaze.

   ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌۭ شَدِيدٌۭ ۖ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌۭ وَأَجْرٌۭ كَبِيرٌ٧

   Those who disbelieve will have a severe punishment, and those who believe and do righteous deeds will have forgiveness and great reward.

   أَفَمَن زُيِّنَ لَهُۥ سُوٓءُ عَمَلِهِۦ فَرَءَاهُ حَسَنًۭا ۖ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُضِلُّ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ ۖ فَلَا تَذْهَبْ نَفْسُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسَرَٰتٍ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌۢ بِمَا يَصْنَعُونَ٨

   Then is one to whom the evil of his deed has been made attractive so he considers it good [like one rightly guided]? For indeed, Allah sends astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. So do not let yourself perish over them in regret. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of what they do.
