[1] Qaf. I swear by the glorious Quran (that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah)
[2] Nay! they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves, so the unbelievers say: This is a wonderful thing:
[3] What! when we are dead and have become dust? That is afar (from probable) return.
[4] We know indeed what the earth diminishes of them, and with Us is a writing that preserves.
[5] Nay, they rejected the truth when it came to them, so they are (now) in a state of confusion.
[6] Do they not then look up to heaven above them how We have made it and adorned it and it has no gaps?
[7] And the earth, We have made it plain and cast in it mountains and We have made to grow therein of all beautiful kinds,
[8] To give sight and as a reminder to every servant who turns frequently (to Allah).
[9] And We send down from the cloud water abounding in good, then We cause to grow thereby gardens and the grain that is reaped,
[10] And the tall palm-trees having spadices closely set one above another,
[11] A sustenance for the servants, and We give life thereby to a dead land; thus is the rising.
[12] (Others) before them rejected (prophets): the people of Nuh and the dwellers of Ar-Rass and Samood,
[13] And Ad and Firon and Lut's brethren,
[14] And the dwellers of the grove and the people of Tuba; all rejected the apostles, so My threat came to pass.
[15] Were We then fatigued with the first creation? Yet are they in doubt with regard to a new creation.
[16] And certainly We created man, and We know what his mind suggests to him, and We are nearer to him than his life-vein.
[17] When the two receivers receive, sitting on the right and on the left.
[18] He utters not a word but there is by him a watcher at hand.
[19] And the stupor of death will come in truth; that is what you were trying to escape.
[20] And the trumpet shall be blown; that is the day of the threatening.
[21] And every soul shall come, with it a driver and a witness.
[22] Certainly you were heedless of it, but now We have removed from you your veil, so your sight today is sharp.
[23] And his companions shall say: This is what is ready with me.
[24] Do cast into hell every ungrateful, rebellious one,
[25] Forbidder of good, exceeder of limits, doubter,
[26] Who sets up another god with Allah, so do cast him into severe chastisement.
[27] His companion will say: Our Lord! I did not lead him into inordinacy but he himself was in a great error.
[28] He will say: Do not quarrel in My presence, and indeed I gave you the threatening beforehand:
[29] My word shall not be changed, nor am I in the least unjust to the servants.
[30] On the day that We will say to hell: Are you filled up? And it will say: Are there any more?
[31] And the garden shall be brought near to those who guard (against evil), not far off:
[32] This is what you were promised, (it is) for every one who turns frequently (to Allah), keeps (His limits);
[33] Who fears the Beneficent Allah in secret and comes with a penitent heart:
[34] Enter it in peace, that is the day of abiding.
[35] They have therein what they wish and with Us is more yet.
[36] And how many a generation did We destroy before them who were mightier in prowess than they, so they went about and about in the lands. Is there a place of refuge?
[37] Most surely there is a reminder in this for him who has a heart or he gives ear and is a witness.
[38] And certainly We created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six periods and there touched Us not any fatigue.
[39] Therefore be patient of what they say, and sing the praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before the setting.
[40] And glorify Him in the night and after the prayers.
[41] And listen on the day when the crier shall cry from a near place
[42] The day when they shall hear the cry in truth; that is the day of coming forth.
[43] Surely We give life and cause to die, and to Us is the eventual coming;
[44] The day on which the earth shall cleave asunder under them, they will make haste; that is a gathering together easy to Us.
[45] We know best what they say, and you are not one to compel them; therefore remind him by means of the Quran who fears My threat.
