The Winnowing Winds · Meccan · 60 āyāt · Juz 26

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

51:1

وَٱلذَّٰرِيَٰتِ ذَرْوًۭا

By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing

51:2

فَٱلْحَٰمِلَٰتِ وِقْرًۭا

And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water]

51:3

فَٱلْجَٰرِيَٰتِ يُسْرًۭا

And those [ships] sailing with ease

51:4

فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمْرًا

And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

51:5

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌۭ

Indeed, what you are promised is true.

51:6

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ

And indeed, the recompense is to occur.

51:7

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ

By the heaven containing pathways,

51:8

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍۢ مُّخْتَلِفٍۢ

Indeed, you are in differing speech.

51:9

يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ

Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded.

51:10

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ

Destroyed are the falsifiers

51:11

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍۢ سَاهُونَ

Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.

51:12

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ

They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"

51:13

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ

[It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire

51:14

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."

51:15

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍ

Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,

51:16

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ

Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.

51:17

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ

They used to sleep but little of the night,

51:18

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ

And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

51:19

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ

And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.

51:20

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌۭ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ

And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

51:21

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ

And in yourselves. Then will you not see?

51:22

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ

And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.

51:23

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ

Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.

51:24

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ

Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? -

51:25

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًۭا ۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمٌۭ قَوْمٌۭ مُّنكَرُونَ

When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace, [you are] a people unknown.

51:26

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍۢ سَمِينٍۢ

Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf

51:27

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ

And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"

51:28

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٍۢ

And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

51:29

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍۢ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌۭ

And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"

51:30

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."

51:31

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ

[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

51:32

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍۢ مُّجْرِمِينَ

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

51:33

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن طِينٍۢ

To send down upon them stones of clay,

51:34

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ

Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."

51:35

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

So We brought out whoever was in the cities of the believers.

51:36

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ

And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.

51:37

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ

And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.

51:38

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ

And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

51:39

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌۭ

But he turned away with his supporters and said," A magician or a madman."

51:40

فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ

So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

51:41

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ

And in 'Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.

51:42

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ

It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.

51:43

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ

And in Thamud, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time."

51:44

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ

But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.

51:45

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍۢ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ

And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.

51:46

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًۭا فَٰسِقِينَ

And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.

51:47

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ

And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

51:48

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ

And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.

51:49

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ

And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember.

51:50

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ

So flee to Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

51:51

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ

And do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

51:52

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ

Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman."

51:53

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ

Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.

51:54

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍۢ

So leave them, [O Muhammad], for you are not to be blamed.

51:55

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.

51:56

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ

And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.

51:57

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍۢ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ

I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.

51:58

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ

Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.

51:59

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًۭا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ

And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their predecessors, so let them not impatiently urge Me.

51:60

فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ

And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.
