Sūra 69: Ḥāqqa, or the Sure Reality

Section 2 (38-52)


38. Fala oqsimu bima tubsiroona

38. So I do call to witness what ye see,


39. Wama la tubsiroona

39. And what ye see not,


40. Innahu laqawlu rasoolin kareemin

40. That this is verily the word of an honoured apostle;


41. Wama huwa biqawli shaAAirin qaleelan ma tu/minoona

41. It is not the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!


42. Wala biqawli kahinin qaleelan ma tathakkaroona

42. Nor is it the word of a soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.


43. Tanzeelun min rabbi alAAalameena

43. (This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.


44. Walaw taqawwala AAalayna baAAda al-aqaweeli

44. And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name,


45. Laakhathna minhu bialyameeni

45. We should certainly seize him by his right hand,


46. Thumma laqataAAna minhu alwateena

46. And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:


47. Fama minkum min ahadin AAanhu hajizeena

47. Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).


48. Wa-innahu latathkiratun lilmuttaqeena

48. But verily this is a Message for the Allah.fearing.


49. Wa-inna lanaAAlamu anna minkum mukaththibeena

49. And We certainly know that there are amongst you those that reject (it).


50. Wa-innahu lahasratun AAala alkafireena

50. But truly (Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers.


51. Wa-innahu lahaqqu alyaqeeni

51. But verily it is Truth of assured certainty.


52. Fasabbih biismi rabbika alAAatheemi

52. So glorify the name of thy Lord Most High.
