وَلِلَّهِ مُلكُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۚ وَيَومَ تَقومُ السّاعَةُ يَومَئِذٍ يَخسَرُ المُبطِلونَ
To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. On the Day when the Hour is established, on that day, those who falsify will lose.
وَتَرىٰ كُلَّ أُمَّةٍ جاثِيَةً ۚ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ تُدعىٰ إِلىٰ كِتابِهَا اليَومَ تُجزَونَ ما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ
You will see every community kneeling, every community will be called to its record. “Today, you are being recompensed for what you used to do.
هـٰذا كِتابُنا يَنطِقُ عَلَيكُم بِالحَقِّ ۚ إِنّا كُنّا نَستَنسِخُ ما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ
This is our record which speaks against you with truth. We were recording what you used to do.”
فَأَمَّا الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ فَيُدخِلُهُم رَبُّهُم في رَحمَتِهِ ۚ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الفَوزُ المُبينُ
Then, as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them into His Mercy. That is the clear triumph.
وَأَمَّا الَّذينَ كَفَروا أَفَلَم تَكُن آياتي تُتلىٰ عَلَيكُم فَاستَكبَرتُم وَكُنتُم قَومًا مُجرِمينَ
As for those who disbelieved: “Weren’t My verses recited to you, but you were arrogant and were guilty people?”
وَإِذا قيلَ إِنَّ وَعدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَالسّاعَةُ لا رَيبَ فيها قُلتُم ما نَدري مَا السّاعَةُ إِن نَظُنُّ إِلّا ظَنًّا وَما نَحنُ بِمُستَيقِنينَ
When it was said, “God’s promise is true, and there is no doubt about the Hour,” you said, “We don’t know what the Hour is. We conceive it as nothing more than speculation, and we aren’t sure.”
وَبَدا لَهُم سَيِّئَاتُ ما عَمِلوا وَحاقَ بِهِم ما كانوا بِهِ يَستَهزِئونَ
The evils of what they earned will appear to them, and what they used to mock will surround them.
وَقيلَ اليَومَ نَنساكُم كَما نَسيتُم لِقاءَ يَومِكُم هـٰذا وَمَأواكُمُ النّارُ وَما لَكُم مِن ناصِرينَ
And it will be said, “Today, We will forget you, as you forgot the meeting of this Day. And your dwelling will be the Fire, and you will have no helpers.
ذٰلِكُم بِأَنَّكُمُ اتَّخَذتُم آياتِ اللَّهِ هُزُوًا وَغَرَّتكُمُ الحَياةُ الدُّنيا ۚ فَاليَومَ لا يُخرَجونَ مِنها وَلا هُم يُستَعتَبونَ
That is because you took God’s verses lightly and the worldly life deceived you.” So today, they won’t be removed from it, nor will they be given the opportunity to make amends.
فَلِلَّهِ الحَمدُ رَبِّ السَّماواتِ وَرَبِّ الأَرضِ رَبِّ العالَمينَ
So, to God be all praise, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth, Lord of the worlds.
وَلَهُ الكِبرِياءُ فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۖ وَهُوَ العَزيزُ الحَكيمُ
And His is the greatness in the heavens and the earth, and He is the Mighty, the All-Wise.
