فَلَيۡسَ لَـهُ الۡيَوۡمَ هٰهُنَا حَمِيۡمٌۙ ٣٥
69:35Therefor hath he no lover here this day,
وَّلَا طَعَامٌ اِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِيۡنٍۙ ٣٦
69:36Nor any food save filth
لَّا يَاۡكُلُهٗۤ اِلَّا الۡخٰطِئُوْنَ ٣٧
69:37Which none but sinners eat.
فَلَاۤ اُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَۙ ٣٨
69:38But nay! I swear by all that ye see
وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَۙ ٣٩
69:39And all that ye see not
اِنَّهٗ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُوۡلٍ كَرِيۡمٍۚۙ ٤٠
69:40That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
وَّمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٍؕ قَلِيۡلًا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُوۡنَۙ ٤١
69:41It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe!
وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٍؕ قَلِيۡلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُوۡنَؕ ٤٢
69:42Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember!
تَنۡزِيۡلٌ مِّنۡ رَّبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَ ٤٣
69:43It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ الۡاَقَاوِيۡلِۙ ٤٤
69:44And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
لَاَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِالۡيَمِيۡنِۙ ٤٥
69:45We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ الۡوَتِيۡنَۖ ٤٦
69:46And then severed his life-artery,
فَمَا مِنۡكُمۡ مِّنۡ اَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَاجِزِيۡنَ ٤٧
69:47And not one of you could have held Us off from him.
وَاِنَّهٗ لَتَذۡكِرَةٌ لِّلۡمُتَّقِيۡنَ ٤٨
69:48And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).
وَاِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ اَنَّ مِنۡكُمۡ مُّكَذِّبِيۡنَ ٤٩
69:49And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).
وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ ٥٠
69:50And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.
وَاِنَّهٗ لَحَـقُّ الۡيَقِيۡنِ ٥١
69:51And lo! it is absolute truth.
فَسَبِّحۡ بِاسۡمِ رَبِّكَ الۡعَظِيۡمِ ٥٢
69:52So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord.
سَاَلَ سَآٮِٕلٌۢ بِعَذَابٍ وَّاقِعٍۙ ١
70:1A questioner questioned concerning the doom about to fall
لِّلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ لَيۡسَ لَهٗ دَافِعٌۙ ٢
70:2Upon the disbelievers, which none can repel,
مِّنَ اللّٰهِ ذِى الۡمَعَارِجِؕ ٣
70:3From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways
تَعۡرُجُ الۡمَلٰٓٮِٕكَةُ وَ الرُّوۡحُ اِلَيۡهِ فِىۡ يَوۡمٍ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهٗ خَمۡسِيۡنَ اَلۡفَ سَنَةٍۚ ٤
70:4(Whereby) the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years.
