54.0 In The Name Of YHWH: The Almighty, The Merciful.
54:1 The Hour draws near
when the moon will be rent asunder. for real, we will see this!
54:2 But if they see smaller Proofs they turn away and say:
Persistent fantasy!
54:3 Yea they reject and follow their own desires
but every matter is settled regardless.
54:4 And there has come to them Tidings
wherein is offered deterrence.
54:5 Yea and far reaching Wisdom
but the Warnings avail not.
54:6 So turn thou away from them
then on the Day The Caller Calls
54:7 their eyes will be humbled in horror
when they come forth from their states of death like scattered locusts
54:8 hastening towards The Caller with terror in their eyes.
Indeed those fools will say:
This is a difficult Day!
54:9 Like the people of Noah who denied before them
when they disrespected Our servant saying: One possessed and insane.
Then drove him away.
54:10 Hence he called to his Lord: I am rejected please Help!
54:11 So We opened the gates of the sky pouring water
54:12 and caused the Earth to gush forth in springs
and the waters met for the purpose determined.
54:13 And We carried him upon that vessel made of planks and pitch for caulk
54:14 which sailed before Our eyes as a gift for him who they disrespected.
54:15 And We have left this story as a Sign
but is there one here who recounts?
54:16 So how were My Punishments and My Warnings?
54:17 And We have made the Quran easy to memorize
in Arabic but is there one here who recounts?
54:18 Ad rejected
then how were My Punishments and My Warnings?
54:19 Truly We sent upon them a raging wind on a day of enduring calamity
54:20 hurling people like trunks of uprooted date palms.
54:21 Then how were My Punishments and My Warnings?
54:22 And We have made the Quran easy to memorize
but is there one here who recounts?
54:23 The people of Thamud refused the Warnings
54:24 when they said: Is it a lone mortal from among us we are to follow?
Nay. We would be astray and insane!
54:25 For has the Remembrance been given to Salih an average man from among us?
Nay. The Truth must be he is an insolent teller of lies.
54:26 But they will come to know tomorrow who the insolent tellers of lies are!
54:27 We sent the she camel as a test for them
so wait thou for them and be patient.
54:28 And inform them that the water is to be divided fairly between them and the she camel
each drinks in its turn.
54:29 Then they called their companion who took over and brutally crippled the thirsty she camel.
54:30 Then how were My Punishments and My Warnings?
54:31 We sent upon them one blast and they became like dry stalks of the fence maker.
54:32 Indeed We have made the Quran easy to memorize
yet is there one here who takes care to recount it?
54:33 The people of Lot refused the Warnings
54:34 so We sent upon them a rain of molten stones
except for the house of Lot
who We delivered at dawn
54:35 through grace from Us.
Thus do We help those who are grateful.
54:36 And he had advised them of Our might
but they disregarded the Warnings.
54:37 And they sought to lure him away from his guests
so We blinded their eyes.
Yea taste My Punishment after My Warnings!
54:38 And certainly an abiding scourge of death befell them in the early morn.
54:39 Yea taste My Punishment after My Warnings!
54:40 After We made the Quran easy for Remembrance
yet there is not one here who recounts it?
54:41 And the Warnings came to the house of pharaoh.
54:42 They denied each of Our Proofs
so We seized them with a Seizing Of One Who Is The Almighty, The Omnipotent.
54:43 Are your nontheists better than those?
Or have you immunity decreed by ancient scrolls?
54:44 Or if they say: United we stand.
54:45 Their multitude will be defeated and turn in flight.
54:46 For the Hour is as Promised to them
but the Hour is more calamitous and bitter than imaginable.
54:47 Yea it is the evildoers who are in error with insanity.
54:48 The Day they are dragged into the Fire upon their faces
it will be said: Taste the touch of Saqar!
54:49 Truly We Created everything in measure
54:50 and Our command to it was only one
completed in the twinkling of an eye.
54:51 And We have destroyed their like
yet is there even one who recalls?
54:52 But Everything they did is in written records.
54:53 Yea Everything small and great is written down.
54:54 Those of Wise Fear will be among Gardens with rivers
54:55 in positions of sincerity before The Omnipotent One.
