68:1
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ ن ۚ وَالْقَلَمِ وَمَا يَسْطُرُونَ
Nun. By the Pen and the (Record) which (men) write,-
68:2
مَا أَنْتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُونٍ
Thou art not, by the Grace of thy Lord, mad or possessed.
68:3
وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجْرًا غَيْرَ مَمْنُونٍ
Nay, verily for thee is a Reward unfailing:
68:4
وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَىٰ خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ
And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character.
68:5
فَسَتُبْصِرُ وَيُبْصِرُونَ
Soon wilt thou see, and they will see,
68:6
بِأَيْيِكُمُ الْمَفْتُونُ
Which of you is afflicted with madness.
68:7
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ ضَلَّ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ
Verily it is thy Lord that knoweth best, which (among men) hath strayed from His Path: and He knoweth best those who receive (true) Guidance.
68:8
فَلَا تُطِعِ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ
So hearken not to those who deny (the Truth).
68:9
وَدُّوا لَوْ تُدْهِنُ فَيُدْهِنُونَ
Their desire is that thou shouldst be pliant: so would they be pliant.
68:10
وَلَا تُطِعْ كُلَّ حَلَّافٍ مَهِينٍ
Heed not the type of despicable men,- ready with oaths,
68:11
هَمَّازٍ مَشَّاءٍ بِنَمِيمٍ
A slanderer, going about with calumnies,
68:12
مَنَّاعٍ لِلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
(Habitually) hindering (all) good, transgressing beyond bounds, deep in sin,
68:13
عُتُلٍّ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ زَنِيمٍ
Violent (and cruel),- with all that, base-born,-
68:14
أَنْ كَانَ ذَا مَالٍ وَبَنِينَ
Because he possesses wealth and (numerous) sons.
68:15
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
When to him are rehearsed Our Signs, "Tales of the ancients", he cries!
68:16
سَنَسِمُهُ عَلَى الْخُرْطُومِ
Soon shall We brand (the beast) on the snout!
68:17
إِنَّا بَلَوْنَاهُمْ كَمَا بَلَوْنَا أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ إِذْ أَقْسَمُوا لَيَصْرِمُنَّهَا مُصْبِحِينَ
Verily We have tried them as We tried the People of the Garden, when they resolved to gather the fruits of the (garden) in the morning.
68:18
وَلَا يَسْتَثْنُونَ
But made no reservation, ("If it be Allah's Will").
68:19
فَطَافَ عَلَيْهَا طَائِفٌ مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَهُمْ نَائِمُونَ
Then there came on the (garden) a visitation from thy Lord, (which swept away) all around, while they were asleep.
68:20
فَأَصْبَحَتْ كَالصَّرِيمِ
So the (garden) became, by the morning, like a dark and desolate spot, (whose fruit had been gathered).
68:21
فَتَنَادَوْا مُصْبِحِينَ
As the morning broke, they called out, one to another,-
68:22
أَنِ اغْدُوا عَلَىٰ حَرْثِكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَارِمِينَ
"Go ye to your tilth (betimes) in the morning, if ye would gather the fruits."
68:23
فَانْطَلَقُوا وَهُمْ يَتَخَافَتُونَ
So they departed, conversing in secret low tones, (saying)-
68:24
أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَنَّهَا الْيَوْمَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِسْكِينٌ
"Let not a single indigent person break in upon you into the (garden) this day."
68:25
وَغَدَوْا عَلَىٰ حَرْدٍ قَادِرِينَ
And they opened the morning, strong in an (unjust) resolve.
68:26
فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهَا قَالُوا إِنَّا لَضَالُّونَ
But when they saw the (garden), they said: "We have surely lost our way:
68:27
بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ
"Indeed we are shut out (of the fruits of our labour)!"
68:28
قَالَ أَوْسَطُهُمْ أَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكُمْ لَوْلَا تُسَبِّحُونَ
Said one of them, more just (than the rest): "Did I not say to you, 'Why not glorify (Allah)?'"
68:29
قَالُوا سُبْحَانَ رَبِّنَا إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ
They said: "Glory to our Lord! Verily we have been doing wrong!"
68:30
فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ يَتَلَاوَمُونَ
Then they turned, one against another, in reproach.
