15. هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ ١٥

    Has there reached you the story of Moses? -

    79:15

16. إِذۡ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلۡوَادِ ٱلۡمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى ١٦

    When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

    79:16

17. ٱذۡهَبۡ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ ١٧

    "Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.

    And he showed him the greatest sign,

    79:20

21. فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ ٢١

    But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.

    79:21

22. ثُمَّ أَدۡبَرَ يَسۡعَىٰ ٢٢

    Then he turned his back, striving.

    79:22

    79:26

27. ءَأَنتُمۡ أَشَدُّ خَلۡقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُۚ بَنَىٰهَا ٢٧

    Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

    79:27

28. رَفَعَ سَمۡكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا ٢٨

    He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

    79:28

    And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

    79:29

30. وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ ٣٠

    And after that He spread the earth.

    79:30

31. أَخۡرَجَ مِنۡهَا مَآءَهَا وَمَرۡعَىٰهَا ٣١

    He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

    79:31

32. وَٱلۡجِبَالَ أَرۡسَىٰهَا ٣٢

    And the mountains He set firmly

    79:32

33. مَتَٰعٗا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَٰمِكُمۡ ٣٣

    As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

    79:33

34. فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلطَّآمَّةُ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ ٣٤

    But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

    79:34

35. يَوۡمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ ٣٥

    The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

    79:35

36. وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلۡجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ ٣٦

    And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

    79:36

37. فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ ٣٧

    So as for he who transgressed

    79:37

38. وَءَاثَرَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا ٣٨

    And preferred the life of the world,

    79:38

39. فَإِنَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ هِيَ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ ٣٩

    Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

    79:39

40. وَأَمَّا مَنۡ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفۡسَ عَنِ ٱلۡهَوَىٰ ٤٠

    But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

    79:40

41. فَإِنَّ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ هِيَ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ ٤١

    Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

    79:41

42. يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرۡسَىٰهَا ٤٢

    They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

    79:42

43. فِيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكۡرَىٰهَآ ٤٣

    In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

    79:43

44. إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهَىٰهَآ ٤٤

    To your Lord is its finality.

    79:44

45. إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُنذِرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰهَا ٤٥

    You are only a warner for those who fear it.

    79:45

46. كَأَنَّهُمۡ يَوۡمَ يَرَوۡنَهَا لَمۡ يَلۡبَثُوٓاْ إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوۡ ضُحَىٰهَا ٤٦

    It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.

    79:46
