وَالمُؤتَفِكَةَ أَهوىٰ

And collapsed the ‘Overturned City’.

فَغَشّاها ما غَشّىٰ

Then He covered it with what He covered.

فَبِأَيِّ آلاءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمارىٰ

So, which of your Lord’s marvels will you deny?

هـٰذا نَذيرٌ مِنَ النُّذُرِ الأولىٰ

This is a warning, just like the previous ones.

أَزِفَتِ الآزِفَةُ

The impending event is drawing near.

أَفَمِن هـٰذَا الحَديثِ تَعجَبونَ

Are you amazed by this discourse?

وَتَضحَكونَ وَلا تَبكونَ

And do you laugh and not weep?

وَأَنتُم سامِدونَ

And you remain proudly indifferent?

فَاسجُدوا لِلَّهِ وَاعبُدوا ۩

So bow down before God, and worship!
