تَكادُ السَّماواتُ يَتَفَطَّرنَ مِنهُ وَتَنشَقُّ الأَرضُ وَتَخِرُّ الجِبالُ هَدًّا
The heavens almost rupture therefrom, the earth splits open, and the mountains crumble to dust.
أَن دَعَوا لِلرَّحمـٰنِ وَلَدًا
Because they attribute a son to the Most Merciful.
وَما يَنبَغي لِلرَّحمـٰنِ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا
It’s not appropriate for the Most Benevolent to have a child.
إِن كُلُّ مَن فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ إِلّا آتِي الرَّحمـٰنِ عَبدًا
Every single one in the heavens and on earth will come to the Most Gracious as a servant.
لَقَد أَحصاهُم وَعَدَّهُم عَدًّا
He accounted for them and enumerated them exactly.
وَكُلُّهُم آتيهِ يَومَ القِيامَةِ فَردًا
And every one of them will come to Him singly on Resurrection Day.
إِنَّ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ سَيَجعَلُ لَهُمُ الرَّحمـٰنُ وُدًّا
Those who believe and do good deeds—the Mercy Giver will give them love.
فَإِنَّما يَسَّرناهُ بِلِسانِكَ لِتُبَشِّرَ بِهِ المُتَّقينَ وَتُنذِرَ بِهِ قَومًا لُدًّا
We’ve made it easy in your language, to give good news to the righteous, and to warn, with it, hostile people.
وَكَم أَهلَكنا قَبلَهُم مِن قَرنٍ هَل تُحِسُّ مِنهُم مِن أَحَدٍ أَو تَسمَعُ لَهُم رِكزًا
How many generations did We destroy before them? Can you sense any of them or hear from them a whisper?
