يَومَ هُم بارِزونَ ۖ لا يَخفىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنهُم شَيءٌ ۚ لِمَنِ المُلكُ اليَومَ ۖ لِلَّهِ الواحِدِ القَهّارِ
On that Day, they will emerge, with nothing about them will be hidden from God. To whom does sovereignty belong today? To God, the One, the Irresistible.
اليَومَ تُجزىٰ كُلُّ نَفسٍ بِما كَسَبَت ۚ لا ظُلمَ اليَومَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَريعُ الحِسابِ
On that Day, every soul will be recompensed for what it has earned. There will be no injustice on that Day. God is swift in taking account.
وَأَنذِرهُم يَومَ الآزِفَةِ إِذِ القُلوبُ لَدَى الحَناجِرِ كاظِمينَ ۚ ما لِلظّالِمينَ مِن حَميمٍ وَلا شَفيعٍ يُطاعُ
Warn them of the approaching Day, when hearts are at throats, choked with fear. The wrongdoers will have no comforting friend, nor any intercessor who might be obeyed.
يَعلَمُ خائِنَةَ الأَعيُنِ وَما تُخفِي الصُّدورُ
He knows the treachery of the eyes and what the hearts conceal.
وَاللَّهُ يَقضي بِالحَقِّ ۖ وَالَّذينَ يَدعونَ مِن دونِهِ لا يَقضونَ بِشَيءٍ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ السَّميعُ البَصيرُ
God judges with the truth, while those they call upon other than Him can’t judge at all. God is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.
أَوَلَم يَسيروا فِي الأَرضِ فَيَنظُروا كَيفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ الَّذينَ كانوا مِن قَبلِهِم ۚ كانوا هُم أَشَدَّ مِنهُم قُوَّةً وَآثارًا فِي الأَرضِ فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِذُنوبِهِم وَما كانَ لَهُم مِنَ اللَّهِ مِن واقٍ
Didn’t they journey through the earth and see what was the end of those before them? They were stronger than them, and had more impact on the earth. Yet, God seized them for their sins, and they had no protector against God.
ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم كانَت تَأتيهِم رُسُلُهُم بِالبَيِّناتِ فَكَفَروا فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ قَوِيٌّ شَديدُ العِقابِ
Their messengers came to them with clear signs, yet they disbelieved. So, God seized them. He is powerful and severe in retribution.
وَلَقَد أَرسَلنا موسىٰ بِآياتِنا وَسُلطانٍ مُبينٍ
We sent Moses with Our signs and a manifest authority.
إِلىٰ فِرعَونَ وَهامانَ وَقارونَ فَقالوا ساحِرٌ كَذّابٌ
To Pharaoh, Haman, and Korah, but they said, “A magician, a liar”.
فَلَمّا جاءَهُم بِالحَقِّ مِن عِندِنا قالُوا اقتُلوا أَبناءَ الَّذينَ آمَنوا مَعَهُ وَاستَحيوا نِساءَهُم ۚ وَما كَيدُ الكافِرينَ إِلّا في ضَلالٍ
When he brought them the truth from Us, they said, “Kill the sons of those who believe with him, and spare their women.” Yet, the plots of the unbelievers are destined to fail.
وَقالَ فِرعَونُ ذَروني أَقتُل موسىٰ وَليَدعُ رَبَّهُ ۖ إِنّي أَخافُ أَن يُبَدِّلَ دينَكُم أَو أَن يُظهِرَ فِي الأَرضِ الفَسادَ
Pharaoh declared, “Leave me to kill Moses, and let him appeal to his Lord. I fear he may change your religion or spread disorder in the land.”
