وَفِرۡعَوۡنَ ذِي ٱلۡأَوۡتَادِ
And [with] Pharaoh, owner of the stakes?[1]
1- By which he tortured people.
ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡبِلَٰدِ
[All of] whom oppressed within the lands
فَأَكۡثَرُواْ فِيهَا ٱلۡفَسَادَ
And increased therein the corruption.
فَصَبَّ عَلَيۡهِمۡ رَبُّكَ سَوۡطَ عَذَابٍ
So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment.
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلۡمِرۡصَادِ
Indeed, your Lord is in observation.
فَأَمَّا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِذَا مَا ٱبۡتَلَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَأَكۡرَمَهُۥ وَنَعَّمَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيٓ أَكۡرَمَنِ
And as for man, when his Lord tries him and [thus] is generous to him and favors him, he says, "My Lord has honored me."[1]
1- He is proud rather than grateful, attributing the favor to his own merit.
وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبۡتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيۡهِ رِزۡقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيٓ أَهَٰنَنِ
But when He tries him and restricts his provision, he says, "My Lord has humiliated me."
كَلَّاۖ بَل لَّا تُكۡرِمُونَ ٱلۡيَتِيمَ
No![1] But you do not honor the orphan
1- It is not like you imagine. Rather, AllŒh tries people through prosperity and hardship and rewards both gratitude and patience with honor in the Hereafter.
وَلَا تَحَـٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ
And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor.
وَتَأۡكُلُونَ ٱلتُّرَاثَ أَكۡلٗا لَّمّٗا
And you consume inheritance, devouring [it] altogether,[1]
1- Not caring whether it is lawful or unlawful.
وَتُحِبُّونَ ٱلۡمَالَ حُبّٗا جَمّٗا
And you love wealth with immense love.
كَلَّآۖ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ دَكّٗا دَكّٗا
No! When the earth has been leveled - pounded and crushed
وَجَآءَ رَبُّكَ وَٱلۡمَلَكُ صَفّٗا صَفّٗا
And your Lord has come[1] and the angels, rank upon rank,
1- To pass judgement. See footnote to 2:19
وَجِاْيٓءَ يَوۡمَئِذِۭ بِجَهَنَّمَۚ يَوۡمَئِذٖ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ
And brought [within view], that Day, is Hell - that Day, man will remember, but how [i.e., what good] to him will be the remembrance?
يَقُولُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي قَدَّمۡتُ لِحَيَاتِي
He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life."[1]
1- The everlasting life of the Hereafter.
فَيَوۡمَئِذٖ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٞ
So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,
وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٞ
And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].
يَـٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفۡسُ ٱلۡمُطۡمَئِنَّةُ
[To the righteous it will be said], "O reassured soul,
ٱرۡجِعِيٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةٗ مَّرۡضِيَّةٗ
Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him],
فَٱدۡخُلِي فِي عِبَٰدِي
And enter among My [righteous] servants
وَٱدۡخُلِي جَنَّتِي
And enter My Paradise."
لَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ
I swear by this city [i.e., Makkah]
وَأَنتَ حِلُّۢ بِهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ
And you, [O Muúammad], are free of restriction in this city
وَوَالِدٖ وَمَا وَلَدَ
And [by] the father[1] and that which was born [of him],
1- Said to be Adam (upon him be peace).
لَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ فِي كَبَدٍ
We have certainly created man into hardship.
أَيَحۡسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقۡدِرَ عَلَيۡهِ أَحَدٞ
Does he think that never will anyone overcome him?
يَقُولُ أَهۡلَكۡتُ مَالٗا لُّبَدًا
He says, "I have spent wealth in abundance."
أَيَحۡسَبُ أَن لَّمۡ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ
Does he think that no one has seen him?
أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَل لَّهُۥ عَيۡنَيۡنِ
Have We not made for him two eyes?
وَلِسَانٗا وَشَفَتَيۡنِ
And a tongue and two lips?
