74. al-Mudathir: The Clothed One
1 O thou enveloped in thy cloak,
2 Arise and warn!
3 Thy Lord magnify,
4 Thy raiment purify,
5 Pollution shun!
6 And show not favour, seeking
wordly gain!
7 For the sake of thy Lord,
be patient!
8 For when the trumpet shall
sound,
9 Surely that day will be a
day of anguish,
10 Not of ease, for disbelievers.
11 Leave Me (to deal) with him
whom I created lonely,
12 And then bestowed upon him
ample means,
13 And sons abiding in his presence
14 And made (life) smooth for
him.
15 Yet he desireth that I should
give more.
16 Nay! For lo! he hath been
stubborn to Our revelations.
17 On him I shall impose a fearful
doom.
18 For lo! he did consider;
then he planned -
19 (Self-)destroyed is he, how
he planned!
20 Again (self-)destroyed is
he, how he planned! -
21 Then looked he,
22 Then frowned he and showed
displeasure.
23 Then turned he away in pride
24 And said: This is naught
else than magic from of old;
25 This is naught else than
speech of mortal man.
26 Him shall I fling unto the
burning.
27 - Ah, what will convey unto
thee what that burning is! -
28 It leaveth naught; it spareth
naught
29 It shrivelleth the man.
30 Above it are nineteen.
31 We have appointed only angels
to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling-block
for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have
certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the
Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts
there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude
? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth
the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals.
32 Nay, by the Moon
33 And the night when it withdraweth
34 And the dawn when it shineth
forth,
35 Lo! this is one of the greatest
(portents)
36 As a warning unto men,
37 Unto him of you who will
advance or hang back.
38 Every soul is a pledge for
its own deeds;
39 Save those who will stand
on the right hand.
40 In gardens they will ask
one another
41 Concerning the guilty:
42 What hath brought you to
this burning ?
43 They will answer: We were
not of those who prayed
44 Nor did we feed the wretched.
45 We used to wade (in vain
dispute) with (all) waders,
46 And we used to deny the Day
of Judgment,
47 Till the Inevitable came
unto us.
48 The mediation of no mediators
will avail them then.
49 Why now turn they away from
the Admonishment,
50 As they were frightened asses
51 Fleeing from a lion ?
52 Nay, but everyone of them
desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).
53 Nay, verily. They fear not
the Hereafter.
54 Nay, verily. Lo! this is
an Admonishment.
55 So whosoever will may heed.
56 And they will not heed unless
Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.
