هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ ٱلَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ 21
[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny
Ayahs 21–40 · Makki · 182 Ayahs · Surah 37
هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ ٱلَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ 21
[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny
ٱحۡشُرُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ وَأَزۡوَٰجَهُمۡ وَمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡبُدُونَ 22
[The angels will be ordered], "Gather those who committed wrong, their kinds, and what they used to worship
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَٱهۡدُوهُمۡ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ 23
Other than Allah, and guide them to the path of Hellfire
وَقِفُوهُمۡۖ إِنَّهُم مَّسۡـُٔولُونَ 24
And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned
مَا لَكُمۡ لَا تَنَاصَرُونَ 25
[They will be asked], "What is [wrong] with you? Why do you not help each other
بَلۡ هُمُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ مُسۡتَسۡلِمُونَ 26
But they, that Day, are in surrender
وَأَقۡبَلَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ 27
And they will approach one another blaming each other
قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّكُمۡ كُنتُمۡ تَأۡتُونَنَا عَنِ ٱلۡيَمِينِ 28
They will say, "Indeed, you used to come at us from the right
قَالُواْ بَل لَّمۡ تَكُونُواْ مُؤۡمِنِينَ 29
The oppressors will say, "Rather, you [yourselves] were not believers
وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيۡكُم مِّن سُلۡطَٰنِۭۖ بَلۡ كُنتُمۡ قَوۡمٗا طَٰغِينَ 30
And we had over you no authority, but you were a transgressing people
فَحَقَّ عَلَيۡنَا قَوۡلُ رَبِّنَآۖ إِنَّا لَذَآئِقُونَ 31
So the word of our Lord has come into effect upon us; indeed, we will taste [punishment]
فَأَغۡوَيۡنَٰكُمۡ إِنَّا كُنَّا غَٰوِينَ 32
And we led you to deviation; indeed, we were deviators
فَإِنَّهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ فِي ٱلۡعَذَابِ مُشۡتَرِكُونَ 33
So indeed they, that Day, will be sharing in the punishment
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَفۡعَلُ بِٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ 34
Indeed, that is how We deal with the criminals
إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوٓاْ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ يَسۡتَكۡبِرُونَ 35
Indeed they, when it was said to them, "There is no deity but Allah," were arrogant
وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُوٓاْ ءَالِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٖ مَّجۡنُونِۭ 36
And were saying, "Are we to leave our gods for a mad poet
بَلۡ جَآءَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَصَدَّقَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ 37
Rather, the Prophet has come with the truth and confirmed the [previous] messengers
إِنَّكُمۡ لَذَآئِقُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡأَلِيمِ 38
Indeed, you [disbelievers] will be tasters of the painful punishment
وَمَا تُجۡزَوۡنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ 39
And you will not be recompensed except for what you used to do
إِلَّا عِبَادَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ 40
But not the chosen servants of Allah
