كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ

Kallaa bal tuhibboonal 'aajilah

No! But you love the immediate

وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ

Wa tazaroonal Aakhirah

And leave the Hereafter.

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاضِرَةٌ

Wujoohuny yawma 'izin naadirah

[Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant,

Looking at their Lord.

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ

Wa wujoohuny yawma 'izim baasirah

And [some] faces, that Day, will be contorted,

تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ

Tazunnu any yuf'ala bihaa faaqirah

Expecting that there will be done to them [something] backbreaking.

Kallaaa izaa balaghatit taraaqee

No! When the soul has reached the collar bones

Wa qeela man raaq

And it is said, "Who will cure [him]?"

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ

Wa zanna annahul firaaq

And the dying one is certain that it is the [time of] separation

وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ

Waltaffatis saaqu bissaaq

And the leg is wound about the leg,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ

Ilaa rabbika yawma'izinil masaaq

To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession.

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ

Falaa saddaqa wa laa sallaa

And the disbeliever had not believed, nor had he prayed.

وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

Wa laakin kazzaba wa tawalla

But [instead], he denied and turned away.

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّىٰ

And then he went to his people, swaggering [in pride].

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

Awlaa laka fa awlaa

Woe to you, and woe!

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

Then woe to you, and woe!

أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى

Does man think that he will be left neglected?

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِّن مَّنِيٍّ يُمْنَىٰ

Had he not been a sperm from semen emitted?

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Summa kaana 'alaqata fakhalaq fasawwaa

Then he was a clinging clot, and [Allah] created [his form] and proportioned [him]

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ

Faja'ala minhuz zawjayniz zakara wal unsaa

And made of him two mates, the male and the female.

Alaisa zaalika biqaadirin 'alaaa any yuhyiyal mawtaa

Is not that [Creator] Able to give life to the dead?

Hal ataa 'alal insaani heenum minad dahri lam yakun shai'am mazkooraa

Has there [not] come upon man a period of time when he was not a thing [even] mentioned?

إِنَّا خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ أَمْشَاجٍ نَّبْتَلِيهِ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا

Innaa khalaqnal insaana min nutfatin amshaajin nabta leehi faja'alnaahu samee'am baseeraa

Indeed, We created man from a sperm-drop mixture that We may try him; and We made him hearing and seeing.

إِنَّا هَدَيْنَاهُ السَّبِيلَ إِمَّا شَاكِرًا وَإِمَّا كَفُورًا

Innaa hadainaahus sabeela immaa shaakiranw wa immaa kafoora
