52:1 By Mount Tur.

52:2 By the book (the Quran) inscribed,

52:3 on open pages (for all to read).

52:4 And by Bait-ul-Mamoor (the house over the heavens parallel to the Ka’ba at Makkah, visited by the angels),

52:5 And by the elevated canopy (sky).

52:6 And by the surging ocean.

52:7 Surely, the punishment of your Lord will occur.

52:8 No one can avert it.

52:9 On that Day, skies will shake in fear,

52:10 and the mountains will be blown away completely.

52:11 There is misery that day for (all) those who denied (the revelations),

52:12 who are engaged in falsehood and play.

52:13 The day they will be dragged and pushed into Hell.

52:14 (They will be told)  'This is the Fire which you used to deny.'

52:15 Is this magic, or do you not see?

52:16 Now burn therein; it will be the same for you, whether you bear it patiently or do not bear it patiently. This is the retribution commensurate with your deeds.

52:17 Surely, the righteous will be in gardens and bliss,

52:18 rejoicing in what their Lord has given them; and their Lord will protect them from the torment of Hell.

52:19 (It will be said) 'Eat and drink to your hearts contentment, this is the reward for your good deeds.'

52:20 They shall recline on couches arranged in rows; and We shall wed them with beautiful Huris.

52:21 Those who believed and whose offspring followed them in faith, We will unite them with their offspring without depriving anybody of their reward for their deeds.  Each one according to what he has earned.

52:22 And We shall provide them with fruit and meat as they desire.

52:23 The Cup of wine will be passed between them from hand to hand that will not cause no idle talk or sinful urge. 

52:24 And there will go round them boy servants attending them, (so pure) as hidden pearls.

52:25 They will converse with one another (about their worldly life),

52:26 and they will say,  'Surely, we were previously afraid with our families (from the punishment of Allah).

52:27 But Allah has been Gracious to us, and has saved us from the punishment of the Fire.

52:28 'Indeed, (in our previous life), we used to invoke (and pray to) Allah (exclusively). He is surely Kind and Most Merciful!'

52:29 Therefore, remind and preach (to people).   By the Grace of Allah, you (O' Apostle ﷺ) are not a fortune teller, or a madman.

52:30 Do they say : 'He is but a poet; (and) we are waiting for some misfortune to befall him.'

52:31 Tell them, 'Wait if you will; I too shall wait with you.'

52:32 Does their reasoning prompt them to this, or they are a rebellious people?

52:33 Or do they say, 'He has simply made it up (this Quran)?' Rather, they do not want to believe.

52:34 Then let them produce a Scripture like it (the Quran) if they are truthful.

52:35 Or were they created by no one? Or were they (themselves) are creators?

52:36 Did they create the heavens and the earth? No!  They will never be convinced.

52:37 Do they possess the treasures of your Lord? Or are they the treasurers (of Allah's Mercy)?

52:38 Do they have a ladder, (or a device to reach heavens), with which they spy and listen (to matters beyond human perception)? If so, let those who spy present a definite proof.

52:39 Or has He only daughters and you (O' disbelievers) have sons?

52:40 Or do you (O' Prophet ﷺ) demand any compensation from them (for your preaching) so that they are burdened with expense?

52:41 Or, do they have (an access to) the unseen, and are they writing it down?

52:42 Or are they plotting against you? (Surely) the plot will fall back on them (unbelievers).

52:43 Or do they have a god other than Allah? Glorified is Allah far above what they associate (with Him)!

52:44 If they should see a segment falling from the sky (as punishment), they would say, 'It is only a massive cloud.'

52:45 So leave them alone till they meet their Day (of Reckoning), in which they will collapse and faint (with horror).

52:46 Their deception will not avail them in the least on that day, nor will they be helped.

52:47 Surely, for those who do wrong, there is punishment (in this world as well as in their graves after death) before this (the punishment of eternal Hell), but most of them don’t know.

52:48 So (O' Apostle ﷺ) wait patiently for your Lord´s decree.  For, of course you are always under Our watchful eye!  And recite the praises of your Lord when you wake up (in the morning).

52:49 And glorify Him at night, and at the time when the stars retreat.
