كَذٰلِكَ العَذابُ ۖ وَلَعَذابُ الآخِرَةِ أَكبَرُ ۚ لَو كانوا يَعلَمونَ
Such is the suffering, yet the suffering of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.
إِنَّ لِلمُتَّقينَ عِندَ رَبِّهِم جَنّاتِ النَّعيمِ
For the righteous with their Lord are the Gardens of Delight.
أَفَنَجعَلُ المُسلِمينَ كَالمُجرِمينَ
Should We treat the submitters like the criminals?
ما لَكُم كَيفَ تَحكُمونَ
What’s the matter with you? How do you judge?
أَم لَكُم كِتابٌ فيهِ تَدرُسونَ
Or do you have a book in which you study?
أَم لَكُم أَيمانٌ عَلَينا بالِغَةٌ إِلىٰ يَومِ القِيامَةِ ۙ إِنَّ لَكُم لَما تَحكُمونَ
Or do you have guarantees from Us, reaching until Resurrection Day, that you will get whatever you judge?
سَلهُم أَيُّهُم بِذٰلِكَ زَعيمٌ
Ask them, which of them can guarantee that.
أَم لَهُم شُرَكاءُ فَليَأتوا بِشُرَكائِهِم إِن كانوا صادِقينَ
Or do they have partners? Then let them bring their partners, if they are truthful.
يَومَ يُكشَفُ عَن ساقٍ وَيُدعَونَ إِلَى السُّجودِ فَلا يَستَطيعونَ
On the Day the reality will be exposed, they will be called upon to prostrate, but they won’t be able to.
خاشِعَةً أَبصارُهُم تَرهَقُهُم ذِلَّةٌ ۖ وَقَد كانوا يُدعَونَ إِلَى السُّجودِ وَهُم سالِمونَ
Their eyes will be downcast, covered by disgrace; for they were called upon to prostrate when they were sound.
