📘 89. الفجر The Dawn
هَلۡ فِي ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٞ لِّذِي حِجۡرٍ
Is there [not] in [all] that an oath [sufficient] for one of perception
وَثَمُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ جَابُواْ ٱلصَّخۡرَ بِٱلۡوَادِ
And [with] Thamud, who carved out the rocks in the valley
And as for man, when his Lord tries him and [thus] is generous to him and favors him, he says, "My Lord has honored me
وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبۡتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيۡهِ رِزۡقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيٓ أَهَٰنَنِ
But when He tries him and restricts his provision, he says, "My Lord has humiliated me
وَلَا تَحَـٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ
And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor
كَلَّآۖ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ دَكّٗا دَكّٗا
No! When the earth has been leveled - pounded and crushed
وَجِاْيٓءَ يَوۡمَئِذِۭ بِجَهَنَّمَۚ يَوۡمَئِذٖ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ
And brought [within view], that Day, is Hell - that Day, man will remember, but what good to him will be the remembrance
يَقُولُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي قَدَّمۡتُ لِحَيَاتِي
He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life
فَيَوۡمَئِذٖ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٞ
So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment
ٱرۡجِعِيٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةٗ مَّرۡضِيَّةٗ
Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him]
