وَاليَومِ المَوعودِ
And by the Promised Day.
وَشاهِدٍ وَمَشهودٍ
And by the witness and what is witnessed.
قُتِلَ أَصحابُ الأُخدودِ
Perished were the companions of the ditch.
النّارِ ذاتِ الوَقودِ
With the intensely fueled fire.
إِذ هُم عَلَيها قُعودٌ
While they were seated around it.
وَهُم عَلىٰ ما يَفعَلونَ بِالمُؤمِنينَ شُهودٌ
Witnessing what they were doing to the believers.
وَما نَقَموا مِنهُم إِلّا أَن يُؤمِنوا بِاللَّهِ العَزيزِ الحَميدِ
They resented them simply because they believed in God, the Almighty, the Worthy of Praise.
الَّذي لَهُ مُلكُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ شَهيدٌ
To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. God is ever watchful over everything.
إِنَّ الَّذينَ فَتَنُوا المُؤمِنينَ وَالمُؤمِناتِ ثُمَّ لَم يَتوبوا فَلَهُم عَذابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُم عَذابُ الحَريقِ
Those who persecute the believing men and women without repenting, will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.
إِنَّ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَهُم جَنّاتٌ تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ ۚ ذٰلِكَ الفَوزُ الكَبيرُ
However, those who believe and do righteous deeds will have gardens through which rivers flow—this is the great success.
إِنَّ بَطشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَديدٌ
Your Lord’s onslaught is severe.
