   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

   وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا١

   By the sun and its brightness

   وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا٢

   And [by] the moon when it follows it

   وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا٣

   And [by] the day when it displays it

   وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا٤

   And [by] the night when it covers it

   وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا٥

   And [by] the sky and He who constructed it

   وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا٦

   And [by] the earth and He who spread it

   وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا٧

   And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it

   فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا٨

   And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness,

   قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا٩

   He has succeeded who purifies it,

   وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا١٠

   And he has failed who instills it [with corruption].

   كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ١١

   Thamud denied [their prophet] by reason of their transgression,

   إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا١٢

   When the most wretched of them was sent forth.

   فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقْيَٰهَا١٣

   And the messenger of Allah [Salih] said to them, "[Do not harm] the she-camel of Allah or [prevent her from] her drink."

   فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا١٤

   But they denied him and hamstrung her. So their Lord brought down upon them destruction for their sin and made it equal [upon all of them].

   وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا١٥

   And He does not fear the consequence thereof.

   وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ١

   By the night when it covers

   وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ٢

   And [by] the day when it appears

   وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ٣

   And [by] He who created the male and female,

   إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ٤

   Indeed, your efforts are diverse.

   فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ٥

   As for he who gives and fears Allah

   وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ٦

   And believes in the best [reward],

   فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ٧

   We will ease him toward ease.

   وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ٨

   And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?

   إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ١٢

   Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.

   وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ١٣

   And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].

   فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًۭا تَلَظَّىٰ١٤

   So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.

   لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى١٥

   None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.

   ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ١٦

   Who had denied and turned away.

   وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى١٧

   But the righteous one will avoid it -

   ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ١٨

   [He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself

   وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍۢ تُجْزَىٰٓ١٩

   And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded

   إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ٢٠

   وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ٢١
