And [by] the promised Day
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ
Washahidin wamashhood
And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,
قُتِلَ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْأُخْدُودِ

وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bilmu'mineenashuhood
And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.
وَمَا نَقَمُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ
Wama naqamoo minhum illa anyu'minoo billahi alAAazeezi alhameed
And they resented them not except because they believed in Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,
ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ
Allathee lahu mulku assamawatiwal-ardi wallahu AAala kullishay-in shaheed
To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allāh, over all things, is Witness.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا۟ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا۟ فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ ٱلْحَرِيقِ
Inna allatheena fatanoo almu'mineenawalmu'minati thumma lam yatooboo falahum AAathabujahannama walahum AAathabu alhareeq
Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّـٰتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ
Inna allatheena amanoowaAAamiloo assalihati lahum jannatuntajree min tahtiha al-anharu thalikaalfawzu alkabeer
Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ

Indeed, the assault [i.e., vengeance] of your Lord is severe.
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ

Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats.
وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلْوَدُودُ

FirAAawna wathamood
[Those of] Pharaoh and Thamūd?
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِى تَكْذِيبٍ
Bali allatheena kafaroo fee taktheeb
But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,
وَٱللَّهُ مِن وَرَآئِهِم مُّحِيطٌۢ
Wallahu min wara-ihimmuheet
While Allāh encompasses them from behind.
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْءَانٌ مَّجِيدٌ
Bal huwa qur-anun majeed
But this is an honored Qur’ān
