52. Tur · verses 41–47

أَمۡ عِندَهُمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبُ فَهُمۡ يَكۡتُبُونَ

Am AAindahumu alghaybu fahum yaktuboona

Or that the Unseen in it their hands, and they write it down?

أَمۡ يُرِيدُونَ كَيۡدٗاۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡمَكِيدُونَ

Am yureedoona kaydan faallatheena kafaroo humu almakeedoona

Or do they intend a plot (against thee)? But those who defy Allah are themselves involved in a Plot!

أَمۡ لَهُمۡ إِلَٰهٌ غَيۡرُ ٱللَّهِۚ سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُونَ

Am lahum ilahun ghayru Allahi subhana Allahi AAamma yushrikoona

Or have they a god other than Allah? Exalted is Allah far above the things they associate with Him!

وَإِن يَرَوۡاْ كِسۡفٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطٗا يَقُولُواْ سَحَابٞ مَّرۡكُومٞ

Wain yaraw kisfan mina alssamai saqitan yaqooloo sahabun markoomun

Were they to see a piece of the sky falling (on them), they would (only) say: "Clouds gathered in heaps!"

فَذَرۡهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُواْ يَوۡمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ يُصۡعَقُونَ

Fatharhum hatta yulaqoo yawmahumu allathee feehi yusAAaqoona

So leave them alone until they encounter that Day of theirs, wherein they shall (perforce) swoon (with terror),-

يَوۡمَ لَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُمۡ كَيۡدُهُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ

Yawma la yughnee AAanhum kayduhum shayan wala hum yunsaroona

The Day when their plotting will avail them nothing and no help shall be given them.

وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ عَذَابٗا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

Wainna lillatheena thalamoo AAathaban doona thalika walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoona

And verily, for those who do wrong, there is another punishment besides this: But most of them understand not.
