[Shakir] In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[Pickthal] In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[Yusufali] In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

يس {1}

[Shakir 36:1] Ya Seen.

[Pickthal 36:1] Ya Sin.

[Yusufali 36:1] Ya Sin.

وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ {2}

[Shakir 36:2] I swear by the Quran full of wisdom

[Pickthal 36:2] By the wise Qur'an,

[Yusufali 36:2] By the Qur'an, full of Wisdom,-

إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ {3}

[Shakir 36:3] Most surely you are one of the messengers

[Pickthal 36:3] Lo! thou art of those sent

[Yusufali 36:3] Thou art indeed one of the messengers,

عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ {4}

[Shakir 36:4] On a right way.

[Pickthal 36:4] On a straight path,

[Yusufali 36:4] On a Straight Way.

تَنْزِيلَ الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ {5}

[Shakir 36:5] A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful.

[Pickthal 36:5] A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful,

[Yusufali 36:5] It is a Revelation sent down by (Him), the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

لِتُنْذِرَ قَوْمًا مَا أُنْذِرَ آبَاؤُهُمْ فَهُمْ غَافِلُونَ {6}

[Shakir 36:6] That you may warn a people whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

[Pickthal 36:6] That thou mayst warn a folk whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

[Yusufali 36:6] In order that thou mayest admonish a people, whose fathers had received no admonition, and who therefore remain heedless (of the Signs of Allah).

لَقَدْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَىٰ أَكْثَرِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ {7}

[Shakir 36:7] Certainly the word has proved true of most of them, so they do not believe.

[Pickthal 36:7] Already hath the judgment, (for their infidelity) proved true of most of them, for they believe not.

[Yusufali 36:7] The Word is proved true against the greater part of them: for they do not believe.

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ أَغْلَالًا فَهِيَ إِلَى الْأَذْقَانِ فَهُمْ مُقْمَحُونَ {8}

[Shakir 36:8] Surely We have placed chains on their necks, and these reach up to their chins, so they have their heads raised aloft.

[Pickthal 36:8] Lo! We have put on their necks carcans reaching unto the chins, so that they are made stiff-necked.

[Yusufali 36:8] We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins, so that their heads are forced up (and they cannot see).

وَجَعَلْنَا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْنَاهُمْ فَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ {9}

[Shakir 36:9] And We have made before them a barrier and a barrier behind them, then We have covered them over so that they do not see.

[Pickthal 36:9] And We have set a bar before them and a bar behind them, and (thus) have covered them so that they see not.

[Yusufali 36:9] And We have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them, and further, We have covered them up; so that they cannot see.

وَسَوَاءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ أَأَنْذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنْذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ {10}

[Shakir 36:10] And it is alike to them whether you warn them or warn them not: they do not believe.

[Pickthal 36:10] Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not, it is alike for them, for they believe not.

[Yusufali 36:10] The same is it to them whether thou admonish them or thou do not admonish them: they will not believe.

إِنَّمَا تُنْذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكْرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحْمَٰنَ بِالْغَيْبِ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ {11}

[Shakir 36:11] You can only warn him who follows the reminder and fears the Beneficent Allah in secret; so announce to him forgiveness and an honorable reward.

[Pickthal 36:11] Thou warnest only him who followeth the Reminder and feareth the Beneficent in secret. To him bear tidings of forgiveness and a rich reward.

[Yusufali 36:11] Thou canst but admonish such a one as follows the Message and fears the (Lord) Most Gracious, unseen: give such a one, therefore, good tidings, of Forgiveness and a Reward most generous.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْۚ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُبِينٍ {12}

[Shakir 36:12] Surely We give life to the dead, and We write down what they have sent before and their footprints, and We have recorded everything in a clear writing.

[Pickthal 36:12] Lo! We it is Who bring the dead to life. We record that which they send before (them, and their footprints. And all things We have kept in a clear Register.

[Yusufali 36:12] Verily We shall give life to the dead, and We record that which they send before and that which they leave behind, and of all things have We taken account in a clear Book (of evidence).

وَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَاءَهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ {13}

[Shakir 36:13] And set out to them an example of the people of the town, when the messengers came to it.

[Pickthal 36:13] Coin for them a similitude: The people of the city when those sent (from Allah) came unto them;

[Yusufali 36:13] Set forth to them, by way of a parable, the (story of) the Companions of the City. Behold!, there came messengers to it.

إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ اثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ مُرْسَلُونَ {14}

[Shakir 36:14] When We sent to them two, they rejected both of them, then We strengthened (them) with a third, so they said: Surely we are messengers to you.

[Pickthal 36:14] When We sent unto them twain, and they denied them both, so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: Lo! we have been sent unto you.

[Yusufali 36:14] When We (first) sent to them two messengers, they rejected them: But We strengthened them with a third: they said, "Truly, we have been sent on a mission to you."

قَالُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُنَا وَمَا أَنْزَلَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا تَكْذِبُونَ {15}

[Shakir 36:15] They said: You are naught but mortals like ourselves, nor has the Beneficent Allah revealed anything; you only lie.

[Pickthal 36:15] They said: Ye are but mortals like unto us. The Beneficent hath naught revealed. Ye do but lie!

[Yusufali 36:15] The (people) said: "Ye are only men like ourselves; and (Allah) Most Gracious sends no sort of revelation: ye do nothing but lie."

قَالُوا رَبُّنَا يَعْلَمُ إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ لَمُرْسَلُونَ {16}

[Shakir 36:16] They said: Our Lord knows that we are most surely messengers to you.

[Pickthal 36:16] They answered: Our Lord knoweth that we are indeed sent unto you,

[Yusufali 36:16] They said: "Our Lord doth know that we have been sent on a mission to you:

وَمَا عَلَيْنَا إِلَّا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ {17}

[Shakir 36:17] And nothing devolves on us but a clear deliverance (of the message).

[Pickthal 36:17] And our duty is but plain conveyance (of the message).

[Yusufali 36:17] "And our duty is only to proclaim the clear Message."

قَالُوا إِنَّا تَطَيَّرْنَا بِكُمْ لَئِنْ لَمْ تَنْتَهُوا لَنَرْجُمَنَّكُمْ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُمْ مِنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ {18}

[Shakir 36:18] They said: Surely we augur evil from you; if you do not desist, we will certainly stone you, and there shall certainly afflict vou a painful chastisement from us.

[Pickthal 36:18] (The people of the city) said: We augur ill of you. If ye desist not, we shall surely stone you, and grievous torture will befall you at our hands.

[Yusufali 36:18] The (people) said: "for us, we augur an evil omen from you: if ye desist not, we will certainly stone you. And a grievous punishment indeed will be inflicted on you by us."

قَالُوا طَائِرُكُمْ مَعَكُمْۚ أَئِنْ ذُكِّرْتُمْۚ بَلْ أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُسْرِفُونَ {19}

[Shakir 36:19] They said: Your evil fortune is with you; what! if you are reminded! Nay, you are an extravagant people.

[Pickthal 36:19] They said: Your evil augury be with you! Is it because ye are reminded (of the truth)? Nay, but ye are froward folk!

[Yusufali 36:19] They said: "Your evil omens are with yourselves: (deem ye this an evil omen). If ye are admonished? Nay, but ye are a people transgressing all bounds!"

وَجَاءَ مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ يَسْعَىٰ قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اتَّبِعُوا الْمُرْسَلِينَ {20}

[Shakir 36:20] And from the remote part of the city there came a man running, he said: O my people! follow the messengers;

[Pickthal 36:20] And there came from the uttermost part of the city a man running. He cried: O my people! Follow those who have been sent!

[Yusufali 36:20] Then there came running, from the farthest part of the City, a man, saying, "O my people! Obey the messengers:

اتَّبِعُوا مَنْ لَا يَسْأَلُكُمْ أَجْرًا وَهُمْ مُهْتَدُونَ {21}

[Shakir 36:21] Follow him who does not ask you for reward, and they are the followers of the right course;

[Pickthal 36:21] Follow those who ask of you no fee, and who are rightly guided.

[Yusufali 36:21] "Obey those who ask no reward of you (for themselves), and who have themselves received Guidance.

وَمَا لِيَ لَا أَعْبُدُ الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ {22}

[Shakir 36:22] And what reason have I that I should not serve Him Who brought me into existence? And to Him you shall be brought back;

[Pickthal 36:22] For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back?

[Yusufali 36:22] "It would not be reasonable in me if I did not serve Him Who created me, and to Whom ye shall (all) be brought back.

أَأَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ آلِهَةً إِنْ يُرِدْنِ الرَّحْمَٰنُ بِضُرٍّ لَا تُغْنِ عَنِّي شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَا يُنْقِذُونِ {23}

[Shakir 36:23] What! shall I take besides Him gods whose intercession, If the Beneficent Allah should desire to afflict me with a harm, shall not avail me aught, nor shall they be able to deliver me?

[Pickthal 36:23] Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Beneficent should wish me any harm, their intercession will avail me naught, nor can they save?

[Yusufali 36:23] "Shall I take (other) gods besides Him? If (Allah) Most Gracious should intend some adversity for me, of no use whatever will be their intercession for me, nor can they deliver me.

إِنِّي إِذًا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ {24}

[Shakir 36:24] In that case I shall most surely be in clear error:

[Pickthal 36:24] Then truly I should be in error manifest.

[Yusufali 36:24] "I would indeed, if I were to do so, be in manifest Error.

إِنِّي آمَنْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَاسْمَعُونِ {25}

[Shakir 36:25] Surely I believe in your Lord, therefore hear me.

[Pickthal 36:25] Lo! I have believed in your Lord, so hear me!

[Yusufali 36:25] "For me, I have faith in the Lord of you (all): listen, then, to me!"

قِيلَ ادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ يَا لَيْتَ قَوْمِي يَعْلَمُونَ {26}

[Shakir 36:26] It was said: Enter the garden. He said: O would that my people had known

[Pickthal 36:26] It was said (unto him): Enter paradise. He said: Would that my people knew

[Yusufali 36:26] It was said: "Enter thou the Garden." He said: "Ah me! Would that my People knew (what I know)!-

بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُكْرَمِينَ {27}

[Shakir 36:27] Of that on account of which my Lord has forgiven me and made me of the honored ones!

[Pickthal 36:27] With what (munificence) my Lord hath pardoned me and made me of the honoured ones!

[Yusufali 36:27] "For that my Lord has granted me Forgiveness and has enrolled me among those held in honour!"

وَمَا أَنْزَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قَوْمِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ جُنْدٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَمَا كُنَّا مُنْزِلِينَ {28}

[Shakir 36:28] And We did not send down upon his people after him any hosts from heaven, nor do We ever send down.

[Pickthal 36:28] We sent not down against his people after him a host from heaven, nor do We ever send.

[Yusufali 36:28] And We sent not down against his People, after him, any hosts from heaven, nor was it needful for Us so to do.

إِنْ كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ خَامِدُونَ {29}

[Shakir 36:29] It was naught but a single cry, and lo! they were still.

[Pickthal 36:29] It was but one Shout, and lo! they were extinct.

[Yusufali 36:29] It was no more than a single mighty Blast, and behold! they were (like ashes) quenched and silent.

يَا حَسْرَةً عَلَى الْعِبَادِۚ مَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ {30}

[Shakir 36:30] Alas for the servants! there comes not to them an messenger but they mock at him.

[Pickthal 36:30] Ah, the anguish for the bondmen! Never came there unto them a messenger but they did mock him!

[Yusufali 36:30] Ah! Alas for (My) Servants! There comes not a messenger to them but they mock him!

أَلَمْ يَرَوْا كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِنَ الْقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ {31}

[Shakir 36:31] Do they not consider how many of the generations have We destroyed before them, because they do not turn to them?

[Pickthal 36:31] Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them, which indeed returned not unto them;

[Yusufali 36:31] See they not how many generations before them we destroyed? Not to them will they return:

وَإِنْ كُلٌّ لَمَّا جَمِيعٌ لَدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ {32}

[Shakir 36:32] And all of them shall surely be brought before Us.

[Pickthal 36:32] But all, without exception, will be brought before Us.

[Yusufali 36:32] But each one of them all - will be brought before Us (for judgment).

وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضُ الْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَاهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ {33}

[Shakir 36:33] And a sign to them is the dead earth: We give life to it and bring forth from it grain SQ they eat of it.

[Pickthal 36:33] A token unto them is the dead earth. We revive it, and We bring forth from it grain so that they eat thereof;

[Yusufali 36:33] A Sign for them is the earth that is dead: We do give it life, and produce grain therefrom, of which ye do eat.

وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا جَنَّاتٍ مِنْ نَخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَابٍ وَفَجَّرْنَا فِيهَا مِنَ الْعُيُونِ {34}

[Shakir 36:34] And We make therein gardens of palms and grapevines and We make springs to flow forth in it,

[Pickthal 36:34] And We have placed therein gardens of the date-palm and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth therein,

[Yusufali 36:34] And We produce therein orchard with date-palms and vines, and We cause springs to gush forth therein:

لِيَأْكُلُوا مِنْ ثَمَرِهِ وَمَا عَمِلَتْهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ {35}

[Shakir 36:35] That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands did not make it; will they not then be grateful?

[Pickthal 36:35] That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks?

[Yusufali 36:35] That they may enjoy the fruits of this (artistry): It was not their hands that made this: will they not then give thanks?

سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَزْوَاجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنْبِتُ الْأَرْضُ وَمِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ {36}

[Shakir 36:36] Glory be to Him Who created pairs of all things, of what the earth grows, and of their kind and of what they do not know.

[Pickthal 36:36] Glory be to Him Who created all the sexual pairs, of that which the earth groweth, and of themselves, and of that which they know not!

[Yusufali 36:36] Glory to Allah, Who created in pairs all things that the earth produces, as well as their own (human) kind and (other) things of which they have no knowledge.

وَآيَةٌ لَهُمُ اللَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ النَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُمْ مُظْلِمُونَ {37}

[Shakir 36:37] And a sign to them is the night: We draw forth from it the day, then lo! they are in the dark;

[Pickthal 36:37] A token unto them is night. We strip it of the day, and lo! they are in darkness.

[Yusufali 36:37] And a Sign for them is the Night: We withdraw therefrom the Day, and behold they are plunged in darkness;

وَالشَّمْسُ تَجْرِي لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَهَاۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ {38}

[Shakir 36:38] And the sun runs on to a term appointed for it; that is the ordinance of the Mighty, the Knowing.

[Pickthal 36:38] And the sun runneth on unto a resting-place for him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

[Yusufali 36:38] And the sun runs his course for a period determined for him: that is the decree of (Him), the Exalted in Might, the All-Knowing.

وَالْقَمَرَ قَدَّرْنَاهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّىٰ عَادَ كَالْعُرْجُونِ الْقَدِيمِ {39}

[Shakir 36:39] And (as for) the moon, We have ordained for it stages till it becomes again as an old dry palm branch.

[Pickthal 36:39] And for the moon We have appointed mansions till she return like an old shrivelled palm-leaf.

[Yusufali 36:39] And the Moon,- We have measured for her mansions (to traverse) till she returns like the old (and withered) lower part of a date-stalk.

لَا الشَّمْسُ يَنْبَغِي لَهَا أَنْ تُدْرِكَ الْقَمَرَ وَلَا اللَّيْلُ سَابِقُ النَّهَارِۚ وَكُلٌّ فِي فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ {40}

[Shakir 36:40] Neither is it allowable to the sun that it should overtake the moon, nor can the night outstrip the day; and all float on in a sphere.

[Pickthal 36:40] It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit.

[Yusufali 36:40] It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day: Each (just) swims along in (its own) orbit (according to Law).

وَآيَةٌ لَهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ {41}

[Shakir 36:41] And a sign to them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship.

[Pickthal 36:41] And a token unto them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ship,

[Yusufali 36:41] And a Sign for them is that We bore their race (through the Flood) in the loaded Ark;

وَخَلَقْنَا لَهُمْ مِنْ مِثْلِهِ مَا يَرْكَبُونَ {42}

[Shakir 36:42] And We have created for them the like of it, what they will ride on.

[Pickthal 36:42] And have created for them of the like thereof whereon they ride.

[Yusufali 36:42] And We have created for them similar (vessels) on which they ride.

وَإِنْ نَشَأْ نُغْرِقْهُمْ فَلَا صَرِيخَ لَهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْقَذُونَ {43}

[Shakir 36:43] And if We please, We can drown them, then there shall be no succorer for them, nor shall they be rescued

[Pickthal 36:43] And if We will, We drown them, and there is no help for them, neither can they be saved;

[Yusufali 36:43] If it were Our Will, We could drown them: then would there be no helper (to hear their cry), nor could they be delivered,

إِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِنَّا وَمَتَاعًا إِلَىٰ حِينٍ {44}

[Shakir 36:44] But (by) mercy from Us and for enjoyment till a time.

[Pickthal 36:44] Unless by mercy from Us and as comfort for a while.

[Yusufali 36:44] Except by way of Mercy from Us, and by way of (world) convenience (to serve them) for a time.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ اتَّقُوا مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَمَا خَلْفَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ {45}

[Shakir 36:45] And when it is said to them: Guard against what is before you and what is behind you, that mercy may be had on you.

[Pickthal 36:45] When it is said unto them: Beware of that which is before you and that which is behind you, that haply ye may find mercy (they are heedless).

[Yusufali 36:45] When they are told, "Fear ye that which is before you and that which will be after you, in order that ye may receive Mercy," (they turn back).

وَمَا تَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ آيَةٍ مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا كَانُوا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ {46}

[Shakir 36:46] And there comes not to them a communication of the communications of their Lord but they turn aside from it.

[Pickthal 36:46] Never came a token of the tokens of their Lord to them, but they did turn away from it!

[Yusufali 36:46] Not a Sign comes to them from among the Signs of their Lord, but they turn away therefrom.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ أَنْفِقُوا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللَّهُ قَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنُطْعِمُ مَنْ لَوْ يَشَاءُ اللَّهُ أَطْعَمَهُ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ {47}

[Shakir 36:47] And when it is said to them: Spend out of what Allah has given you, those who disbelieve say to those who believe: Shall we feed him whom, if Allah please, He could feed? You are in naught but clear error.

[Pickthal 36:47] And when it is said unto them: Spend of that wherewith Allah hath provided you, those who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Shall we feed those whom Allah, if He willed, would feed? Ye are in naught else than error manifest.

[Yusufali 36:47] And when they are told, "Spend ye of (the bounties) with which Allah has provided you," the Unbelievers say to those who believe: "Shall we then feed those whom, if Allah had so willed, He would have fed, (Himself)?- Ye are in nothing but manifest error."

وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا الْوَعْدُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ {48}

[Shakir 36:48] And they say: When will this threat come to pass, if you are truthful?

[Pickthal 36:48] And they say: When will this promise be fulfilled, if ye are truthful?

[Yusufali 36:48] Further, they say, "When will this promise (come to pass), if what ye say is true?"

مَا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً تَأْخُذُهُمْ وَهُمْ يَخِصِّمُونَ {49}

[Shakir 36:49] They wait not for aught but a single cry which will overtake them while they yet contend with one another.

[Pickthal 36:49] They await but one Shout, which will surprise them while they are disputing.

[Yusufali 36:49] They will not (have to) wait for aught but a single Blast: it will seize them while they are yet disputing among themselves!

فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ تَوْصِيَةً وَلَا إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِمْ يَرْجِعُونَ {50}

[Shakir 36:50] So they shall not be able to make a bequest, nor shall they return to their families.

[Pickthal 36:50] Then they cannot make bequest, nor can they return to their own folk.

[Yusufali 36:50] No (chance) will they then have, by will, to dispose (of their affairs), nor to return to their own people!

وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُمْ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَنْسِلُونَ {51}

[Shakir 36:51] And the trumpet shall be blown, when lo ! from their graves they shall hasten on to their Lord.

[Pickthal 36:51] And the trumpet is blown and lo! from the graves they hie unto their Lord,

[Yusufali 36:51] The trumpet shall be sounded, when behold! from the sepulchres (men) will rush forth to their Lord!

قَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا مَنْ بَعَثَنَا مِنْ مَرْقَدِنَاۜ ۗ هَٰذَا مَا وَعَدَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَصَدَقَ الْمُرْسَلُونَ {52}

[Shakir 36:52] They shall say: O woe to us! who has raised us up from our sleeping-place? This is what the Beneficent Allah promised and the messengers told the truth.

[Pickthal 36:52] Crying: Woe upon us! Who hath raised us from our place of sleep? This is that which the Beneficent did promise, and the messengers spoke truth.

[Yusufali 36:52] They will say: "Ah! Woe unto us! Who hath raised us up from our beds of repose?"... (A voice will say:) "This is what (Allah) Most Gracious had promised. And true was the word of the messengers!"

إِنْ كَانَتْ إِلَّا صَيْحَةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ جَمِيعٌ لَدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ {53}

[Shakir 36:53] There would be naught but a single cry, when lo ! they shall all be brought before Us;

[Pickthal 36:53] It is but one Shout, and behold them brought together before Us!

[Yusufali 36:53] It will be no more than a single Blast, when lo! they will all be brought up before Us!

فَالْيَوْمَ لَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْئًا وَلَا تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ {54}

[Shakir 36:54] So this day no soul shall be dealt with unjustly in the least; and you shall not be rewarded aught but that which you did.

[Pickthal 36:54] This day no soul is wronged in aught; nor are ye requited aught save what ye used to do.

[Yusufali 36:54] Then, on that Day, not a soul will be wronged in the least, and ye shall but be repaid the meeds of your past Deeds.

إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ الْيَوْمَ فِي شُغُلٍ فَاكِهُونَ {55}

[Shakir 36:55] Surely the dwellers of the garden shall on that day be in an occupation quite happy.

[Pickthal 36:55] Lo! those who merit paradise this day are happily employed,

[Yusufali 36:55] Verily the Companions of the Garden shall that Day have joy in all that they do;

هُمْ وَأَزْوَاجُهُمْ فِي ظِلَالٍ عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ مُتَّكِئُونَ {56}

[Shakir 36:56] They and their wives shall be in shades, reclining on raised couches.

[Pickthal 36:56] They and their wives, in pleasant shade, on thrones reclining;

[Yusufali 36:56] They and their associates will be in groves of (cool) shade, reclining on Thrones (of dignity);

لَهُمْ فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ وَلَهُمْ مَا يَدَّعُونَ {57}

[Shakir 36:57] They shall have fruits therein, and they shall have whatever they desire.

[Pickthal 36:57] Theirs the fruit (of their good deeds) and theirs (all) that they ask;

[Yusufali 36:57] (Every) fruit (enjoyment) will be there for them; they shall have whatever they call for;

سَلَامٌ قَوْلًا مِنْ رَبٍّ رَحِيمٍ {58}

[Shakir 36:58] Peace: a word from a Merciful Lord.

[Pickthal 36:58] The word from a Merciful Lord (for them) is: Peace!

[Yusufali 36:58] "Peace!" - a word (of salutation) from a Lord Most Merciful!

وَامْتَازُوا الْيَوْمَ أَيُّهَا الْمُجْرِمُونَ {59}

[Shakir 36:59] And get aside today, O guilty ones!

[Pickthal 36:59] But avaunt ye, O ye guilty, this day!

[Yusufali 36:59] "And O ye in sin! Get ye apart this Day!

أَلَمْ أَعْهَدْ إِلَيْكُمْ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ أَنْ لَا تَعْبُدُوا الشَّيْطَانَ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُبِينٌ {60}

[Shakir 36:60] Did I not charge you, O children of Adam ! that you should not serve the Shaitan? Surely he is your open enemy,

[Pickthal 36:60] Did I not charge you, O ye sons of Adam, that ye worship not the devil - Lo! he is your open foe! -

[Yusufali 36:60] "Did I not enjoin on you, O ye Children of Adam, that ye should not worship Satan; for that he was to you an enemy avowed?-

وَأَنِ اعْبُدُونِيۚ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ {61}

[Shakir 36:61] And that you should serve Me; this is the right way.

[Pickthal 36:61] But that ye worship Me? That was the right path.

[Yusufali 36:61] "And that ye should worship Me, (for that) this was the Straight Way?

وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنْكُمْ جِبِلًّا كَثِيرًا أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا تَعْقِلُونَ {62}

[Shakir 36:62] And certainly he led astray numerous people from among you. What! could you not then understand?

[Pickthal 36:62] Yet he hath led astray of you a great multitude. Had ye then no sense?

[Yusufali 36:62] "But he did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did ye not, then, understand?

هَٰذِهِ جَهَنَّمُ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ {63}

[Shakir 36:63] This is the hell with which you were threatened.

[Pickthal 36:63] This is hell which ye were promised (if ye followed him).

[Yusufali 36:63] "This is the Hell of which ye were (repeatedly) warned!

اصْلَوْهَا الْيَوْمَ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ {64}

[Shakir 36:64] Enter into it this day because you disbelieved.

[Pickthal 36:64] Burn therein this day for that ye disbelieved.

[Yusufali 36:64] "Embrace ye the (fire) this Day, for that ye (persistently) rejected (Truth)."

الْيَوْمَ نَخْتِمُ عَلَىٰ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَتُكَلِّمُنَا أَيْدِيهِمْ وَتَشْهَدُ أَرْجُلُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ {65}

[Shakir 36:65] On that day We will set a seal upon their mouths, and their hands shall speak to Us, and their feet shall bear witness of what they earned.

[Pickthal 36:65] This day We seal up their mouths, and their hands speak out to Us and their feet bear witness as to what they used to earn.

[Yusufali 36:65] That Day shall We set a seal on their mouths. But their hands will speak to us, and their feet bear witness, to all that they did.

وَلَوْ نَشَاءُ لَطَمَسْنَا عَلَىٰ أَعْيُنِهِمْ فَاسْتَبَقُوا الصِّرَاطَ فَأَنَّىٰ يُبْصِرُونَ {66}

[Shakir 36:66] And if We please We would certainly put out their eyes, then they would run about groping for the way, but how should they see?

[Pickthal 36:66] And had We willed, We verily could have quenched their eyesight so that they should struggle for the way. Then how could they have seen?

[Yusufali 36:66] If it had been our Will, We could surely have blotted out their eyes; then should they have run about groping for the Path, but how could they have seen?

وَلَوْ نَشَاءُ لَمَسَخْنَاهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَكَانَتِهِمْ فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مُضِيًّا وَلَا يَرْجِعُونَ {67}

[Shakir 36:67] And if We please We would surely transform them in their place, then they would not be able to go on, nor will they return.

[Pickthal 36:67] And had We willed, We verily could have fixed them in their place, making them powerless to go forward or turn back.

[Yusufali 36:67] And if it had been Our Will, We could have transformed them (to remain) in their places; then should they have been unable to move about, nor could they have returned (after error).

وَمَنْ نُعَمِّرْهُ نُنَكِّسْهُ فِي الْخَلْقِ أَفَلَا يَعْقِلُونَ {68}

[Shakir 36:68] And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce (him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then understand?

[Pickthal 36:68] He whom we bring unto old age, We reverse him in creation (making him go back to weakness after strength). Have ye then no sense?

[Yusufali 36:68] If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then understand?

وَمَا عَلَّمْنَاهُ الشِّعْرَ وَمَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُۚ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ وَقُرْآنٌ مُبِينٌ {69}

[Shakir 36:69] And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran,

[Pickthal 36:69] And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain,

[Yusufali 36:69] We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear:

لِيُنْذِرَ مَنْ كَانَ حَيًّا وَيَحِقَّ الْقَوْلُ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ {70}

[Shakir 36:70] That it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers.

[Pickthal 36:70] To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers.

[Yusufali 36:70] That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may be proved against those who reject (Truth).

أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّا خَلَقْنَا لَهُمْ مِمَّا عَمِلَتْ أَيْدِينَا أَنْعَامًا فَهُمْ لَهَا مَالِكُونَ {71}

[Shakir 36:71] Do they not see that We have created cattle for them, out of what Our hands have wrought, so they are their masters?

[Pickthal 36:71] Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners,

[Yusufali 36:71] See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?-

وَذَلَّلْنَاهَا لَهُمْ فَمِنْهَا رَكُوبُهُمْ وَمِنْهَا يَأْكُلُونَ {72}

[Shakir 36:72] And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat.

[Pickthal 36:72] And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food?

[Yusufali 36:72] And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat:

وَلَهُمْ فِيهَا مَنَافِعُ وَمَشَارِبُ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ {73}

[Shakir 36:73] And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful?

[Pickthal 36:73] Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks?

[Yusufali 36:73] And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful?

وَاتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ آلِهَةً لَعَلَّهُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ {74}

[Shakir 36:74] And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped.

[Pickthal 36:74] And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped.

[Yusufali 36:74] Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped!

لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُنْدٌ مُحْضَرُونَ {75}

[Shakir 36:75] (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and they shall be a host brought up before them.

[Pickthal 36:75] It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms.

[Yusufali 36:75] They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned).

فَلَا يَحْزُنْكَ قَوْلُهُمْۘ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ {76}

[Shakir 36:76] Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly.

[Pickthal 36:76] So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim.

[Yusufali 36:76] Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as well as what they disclose.

أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مُبِينٌ {77}

[Shakir 36:77] Does not man see that We have created him from the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant.

[Pickthal 36:77] Hath not man seen that We have created him from a drop of seed? Yet lo! he is an open opponent.

[Yusufali 36:77] Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary!

وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلًا وَنَسِيَ خَلْقَهُ قَالَ مَنْ يُحْيِي الْعِظَامَ وَهِيَ رَمِيمٌ {78}

[Shakir 36:78] And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. Says he: Who will give life to the bones when they are rotten?

[Pickthal 36:78] And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away?

[Yusufali 36:78] And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?"

قُلْ يُحْيِيهَا الَّذِي أَنْشَأَهَا أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلْقٍ عَلِيمٌ {79}

[Shakir 36:79] Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation

[Pickthal 36:79] Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation,

[Yusufali 36:79] Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!-

الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمْ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ الْأَخْضَرِ نَارًا فَإِذَا أَنْتُمْ مِنْهُ تُوقِدُونَ {80}

[Shakir 36:80] He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire).

[Pickthal 36:80] Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it.

[Yusufali 36:80] "The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye kindle therewith (your own fires)!

أَوَلَيْسَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَىٰ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ مِثْلَهُمْۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ الْخَلَّاقُ الْعَلِيمُ {81}

[Shakir 36:81] Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of them? Yea! and He is the Creator (of all), the Knower.

[Pickthal 36:81] Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the like of them? Aye, that He is! for He is the All-Wise Creator,

[Yusufali 36:81] "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)!

إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَنْ يَقُولَ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ {82}

[Shakir 36:82] His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, so it is.

[Pickthal 36:82] But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is.

[Yusufali 36:82] Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is!

فَسُبْحَانَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ {83}

[Shakir 36:83] Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back.

[Pickthal 36:83] Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back.

[Yusufali 36:83] So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him will ye be all brought back.
