AN NAJM (BINTANG)

ثُمَّ يُجْزَاهُ الْجَزَاء الْأَوْفَى

Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense

وَأَنَّ إِلَى رَبِّكَ الْمُنتَهَى

And that to your Lord is the finality

وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَضْحَكَ وَأَبْكَى

And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep

وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَمَاتَ وَأَحْيَا

And that it is He who causes death and gives life

وَأَنَّهُ خَلَقَ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَى

And that He creates the two mates - the male and female -

مِن نُّطْفَةٍ إِذَا تُمْنَى

From a sperm-drop when it is emitted

وَأَنَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّشْأَةَ الْأُخْرَى

And that [incumbent] upon Him is the next creation

وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَغْنَى وَأَقْنَى

And that it is He who enriches and suffices

وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ رَبُّ الشِّعْرَى

And that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius

وَأَنَّهُ أَهْلَكَ عَادًا الْأُولَى

And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad

وَثَمُودَ فَمَا أَبْقَى

And Thamud - and He did not spare [them] -

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا هُمْ أَظْلَمَ وَأَطْغَى

And the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing.

وَالْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ أَهْوَى

And the overturned towns He hurled down

فَغَشَّاهَا مَا غَشَّى

And covered them by that which He covered.

فَبِأَيِّ آلَاء رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَى

Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt?

هَذَا نَذِيرٌ مِّنَ النُّذُرِ الْأُولَى

This [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners.

أَزِفَتْ الْآزِفَةُ

The Approaching Day has approached.

لَيْسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ كَاشِفَةٌ

Of it, [from those] besides Allah , there is no remover.

أَفَمِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ تَعْجَبُونَ

Then at this statement do you wonder?

وَتَضْحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبْكُونَ

And you laugh and do not weep
