74. The One Wrapping Himself Up (Al-Muddaththir)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
<section
begin="74:1"/>O thou who wrappest thyself up, <section
end="74:1"/>
<section
begin="74:2"/>Arise and warn, <section
end="74:2"/>
<section
begin="74:3"/>And thy Lord do magnify, <section
end="74:3"/>
<section
begin="74:4"/>And thy garments do purify, <section
end="74:4"/>
<section
begin="74:5"/>And uncleanness do shun, <section
end="74:5"/>
<section
begin="74:6"/>And do no favour seeking gain, <section
end="74:6"/>
<section
begin="74:7"/>And for the sake of thy Lord, be patient. <section
end="74:7"/>
<section
begin="74:8"/>For when the trumpet is sounded, <section
end="74:8"/>
<section
begin="74:9"/>That will be that day -- a difficult day, <section
end="74:9"/>
<section
begin="74:10"/>For the disbelievers, anything but easy. <section
end="74:10"/>
<section
begin="74:11"/>Leave Me alone with him whom I created, <section
end="74:11"/>
<section
begin="74:12"/>And gave him vast riches, <section
end="74:12"/>
<section
begin="74:13"/>And sons dwelling in his presence, <section
end="74:13"/>
<section
begin="74:14"/>And made matters easy for him, <section
end="74:14"/>
<section
begin="74:15"/>And yet he desires that I should give more! <section
end="74:15"/>
<section
begin="74:16"/>By no means! Surely he is inimical to Our messages. <section
end="74:16"/>
<section
begin="74:17"/>I will make a distressing punishment overtake him. <section
end="74:17"/>
<section
begin="74:18"/>Surely he reflected and determined, <section
end="74:18"/>
<section
begin="74:19"/>But may he be destroyed how he determined! <section
end="74:19"/>
<section
begin="74:20"/>Again, may he be destroyed how he determined! <section
end="74:20"/>
<section
begin="74:21"/>Then he looked, <section
end="74:21"/>
<section
begin="74:22"/>Then frowned and scowled, <section
end="74:22"/>
<section
begin="74:23"/>Then turned back and was big with pride, <section
end="74:23"/>
<section
begin="74:24"/>Then said: This is naught but magic from of old! <section
end="74:24"/>
<section
begin="74:25"/>This is naught but the word of a mortal! <section
end="74:25"/>
<section
begin="74:26"/>I will cast him into hell. <section
end="74:26"/>
<section
begin="74:27"/>And what will make thee realize what hell is? <section
end="74:27"/>
<section
begin="74:28"/>It leaves naught, and spares naught. <section
end="74:28"/>
<section
begin="74:29"/>It scorches the mortal. <section
end="74:29"/>
<section
begin="74:30"/>Over it are nineteen. <section
end="74:30"/>
<section
begin="74:31"/>And We have made none but angels wardens of the Fire, and We have not made their number but as a trial for those who disbelieve, that those who have been given the Book may be certain and those who believe may increase in faith, and those who have been given the Book and the believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the disbelievers may say: What does Allah mean by this parable? Thus Allah leaves in error whom He pleases, and guides whom He pleases. And none knows the hosts of thy Lord but He. And this is naught but a Reminder to mortals. <section end="74:31"/>
