وَيُسْقَوْنَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا زَنجَبِيلًا

and they will be given a drink infused with ginger

إِنَّ هَـٰذَا كَانَ لَكُمْ جَزَآءً وَكَانَ سَعْيُكُم مَّشْكُورًا

[It will be said], ‘This is your reward. Your endeavours are appreciated.’

وَمَا تَشَآءُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا

But you will only wish to do so if God wills- God is all knowing, all wise-

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ

They will be told, ‘Go to that which you used to deny!

فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ

If you have any plots against Me, try them now.’

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

[they will be told], ‘Eat and drink to your hearts’ content as a reward for your deeds:

إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَـٰتًا

A time has been appointed for the Day of Decision:

وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَٰبًا

when the sky will open up like wide portals,

وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا

when the mountains will vanish like a mirage.

إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا

Hell lies in wait,

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا

for they did not fear a reckoning,

إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَـٰكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا

We have warned you of imminent torment, on the Day when every person will see what their own hands have sent ahead for them, when the disbeliever will say, ‘If only I were dust!’

أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَـٰمًا نَّخِرَةً

after we have turned into decayed bones?’ and they say,

كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ

No indeed! Their hearts are encrusted with what they have done.

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ

and they will be told, ‘This is what you called a lie.’

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ

The wicked used to laugh at the believers––

هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ

Have the disbelievers [not] been repaid for their deeds?

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

He used to live among his people well pleased.

بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا

indeed he will! His Lord was watching him.

ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْمَرْحَمَةِ

and to be one of those who believe and urge one another to steadfastness and compassion.

أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰٓ

Have you seen whether he is rightly guided,

لَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ وَٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ مُنفَكِّينَ حَتَّىٰ تَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلْبَيِّنَةُ

Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters were not about to change their ways until they were sent clear evidence,

يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ

On a Day when people will be like scattered moths

وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ

and the mountains like tufts of wool,

فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَٱسْتَغْفِرْهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ تَوَّابًۢا

celebrate the praise of your Lord and ask His forgiveness: He is always ready to accept repentance.

وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌۢ

No one is comparable to Him.’
