Chapter 52. The Mountain, at-Tur

<PREVIOUS : NEXT>

52.0 In The Name Of YHWH: The Almighty, The Merciful.

52:1 By the mount!

52:2 By Books inscribed

52:3 on parchments unrolled

52:4 in the house frequented.

52:5 And by the exalted roof

52:6 and the filled seas

52:7 the Punishment Of thy Lord will befall

52:8 for none can avert it.

52:9 On a Day the sky will spin a spinning

52:10 and the mountains will journey a journey

52:11 woe that Day to those who deny

52:12 and those who play in jest.

52:13 The Day they are thrown into the Fire of Hell!

52:14 This is the Fire which you denied.

52:15 Be it fantasy? Think you will not believe it then?

52:16 Yea thou will burn therein

and be patient or not patient then

it is the same for you

you are only being Rewarded for Everything you did.

52:17 While those of Wise Fear are in Gardens of Bliss

52:18 glad with what their Lord Has Given them

for their Lord Protected them from the Punishment of Hell.

52:19 It is said: Eat and drink with calm for the Good you did

52:20 reclining upon couches arrayed.

And We honor them with pure lovely eyed ones. who are likely similar to ETs that will be our Eternal servants and friends

52:21 And those who believe and whose progeny follow them in faith We place them together.

And We diminish not anything of their Good deeds

each being a pledge for what they have earned.

52:22 And We provide them with whatever fruit and delicacies they desire.

52:23 They will cup with one and other of drink which will not incite idle talk nor sinfulness.

52:24 And the Eternally youthful ET servants move about serving them as if we are well guarded pearls.

52:25 And some of them will draw near to others saying:

52:26 We were ones apprehensive before

52:27 but God Was Gracious to us and Protected us from the scorching wind and the Eternal Punishment.

52:28 Truly we did call to Him before

and indeed He Is The Virtuous, The Merciful.

52:29 So remind! For By the Grace Of thy Lord Mohamet thou are not a soothsayer nor possessed.

52:30 And if because of the Qurans’ eloquence they say: A poet! We will wait to see him fail like all poets.

52:31 Say: Yea wait

for I am with you among those waiting.

52:32 Ask thyself: Is it solely their own minds at work?

Or are they a people mentally confounded and condemned By God for transgressing the bounds?

52:33 And if they say: He has invented it.

The simple Truth is they do not believe.

52:34 Let them produce a chapter the like hereof if they be Truthful.

52:35 For were they Created from nothing out of nothing

or are they the Creators?

52:36 Did they Create the Heavens and the Earth?

Nay. Yet still they are not certain about God?

52:37 Do they own the Treasuries Of thy Lord?

Are they the overseers?

52:38 Or do they have a stairway on which they can listen in?

Then let their listeners come with their clear authority.

52:39 And Has He only daughters when they have sons?

52:40 Or has thou asked a reward of them

so that they be indebted if they were to listen to thee?

52:41 Or know they of the unseen and can describe it in clear words like these?

52:42 And if they scheme a scheme in a plan of cunning

then surely have those who disbelieve been outwitted.

52:43 Yea have they a god other than God?

Glory Be Unto God High Above that they serve!

52:44 And when they see Those of Heaven descending they will say: Clouds heaped up.

52:45 So leave them until that Day in which they will be left swooning and awestruck.

52:46 A Day in which all their scheming will avail them nothing and they will not be helped.

52:47 And then for those fools comes the Real Punishment

but most will not be thinking of that!

52:48 So be patient for the Judgement Of thy Lord

for thou and all reside before Our eyes.

And for a markedly better day and life give glory with the praise of thy Lord when rising in the morn.

52:49 And some of the night glorify Him

then do it again at the retreat of the stars. the next morning
