ثُمَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ
Then into Hellfire drive him.
ثُمَّ فِي سِلۡسِلَةٖ ذَرۡعُهَا سَبۡعُونَ ذِرَاعٗا فَٱسۡلُكُوهُ
Then into a chain whose length is seventy cubits insert him."
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
Indeed, he did not used to believe in AllŒh, the Most Great,
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ
Nor did he encourage the feeding of the poor.
فَلَيۡسَ لَهُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ هَٰهُنَا حَمِيمٞ
So there is not for him here this Day any devoted friend
وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِينٖ
Nor any food except from the discharge of wounds;
لَّا يَأۡكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡخَٰطِـُٔونَ
None will eat it except the sinners.
فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُونَ
So I swear by what you see
وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ
And what you do not see
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولٖ كَرِيمٖ
[That] indeed, it [i.e., the QurÕŒn] is the word of a noble Messenger.
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُونَ
And it is not the word of a poet; little do you believe.
وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Nor the word of a soothsayer; little do you remember.
تَنزِيلٞ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ ٱلۡأَقَاوِيلِ
And if he [i.e., Muúammad] had made up about Us some [false] sayings,
لَأَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُ بِٱلۡيَمِينِ
We would have seized him by the right hand;[1]
1- Another interpretation is "by [Our] right hand," i.e., AllŒh would have exacted revenge with might and power.
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعۡنَا مِنۡهُ ٱلۡوَتِينَ
Then We would have cut from him the aorta.[1]
1- Causing immediate death.
فَمَا مِنكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدٍ عَنۡهُ حَٰجِزِينَ
And there is no one of you who could prevent [Us] from him.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَذۡكِرَةٞ لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ
And indeed, it [i.e., the QurÕŒn] is a reminder for the righteous.
وَإِنَّا لَنَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ مِنكُم مُّكَذِّبِينَ
And indeed, We know that among you are deniers.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَسۡرَةٌ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ
And indeed, it will be [a cause of] regret upon the disbelievers.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ
And indeed, it is the truth of certainty.
فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ
So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
