In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful
22:1
ﱁO mankindﱂO mankindﱃFearﱄﱅyour LordﱆIndeedﱇ(the) convulsionﱈ(of) the Hourﱉ(is) a thingﱊgreatﱋ(1)
O humanity! Fear your Lord, for the ˹violent˺ quaking at the Hour is surely a dreadful thing.
22:2
ﱌ(The) Dayﱍyou will see itﱎwill forgetﱏeveryﱐnursing motherﱑthat whichﱒshe was nursingﱓand will deliverﱔeveryﱕpregnant womanﱖpregnant womanﱗher loadﱘand you will seeﱙ[the] mankindﱚintoxicatedﱛwhile notﱜtheyﱝ(are) intoxicatedﱞbutﱟ(the) punishmentﱠ(of) Allahﱡ(will be) severeﱢ(2)
The Day you see it, every nursing mother will abandon what she is nursing, and every pregnant woman will deliver her burden ˹prematurely˺. And you will see people ˹as if they were˺ drunk, though they will not be drunk; but the torment of Allah is ˹terribly˺ severe.
˹Still˺ there are some who dispute about Allah without knowledge, and follow every rebellious devil.
22:4
ﱰIt has been decreedﱱfor himﱲthat heﱳwhoﱴbefriends himﱵthen indeed, heﱶwill misguide himﱷand will guide himﱸtoﱹ(the) punishmentﱺ(of) the Blazeﱻ(4)
It has been decreed for such devils that whoever takes them as a guide will be misguided and led by them into the torment of the Blaze.
22:5
ﱼO mankindﱽO mankindﱾIfﱿyou areﲀinﲁdoubtﲂaboutﲃthe Resurrectionﲄthen indeed, WeﲅWe created youﲆfromﲇdustﲈthenﲉfromﲊa semen-dropﲋthenﲌfromﲍa clinging substanceﲎthenﲏfromﲐan embryonic lumpﲑformedﲒand unformedﲓand unformedﲔthat We may make clearﲕﲖto youﲗAnd We cause to remainﲘinﲙthe wombsﲚwhatﲛWe willﲜforﲝa termﲞappointedﲟthenﲠWe bring you outﲡ(as) a childﲢ[then]ﲣthat you may reachﲤﲥ[your] maturityﲦAnd among youﲧ(is he) whoﲨdiesﲩand among youﲪ(is he) whoﲫis returnedﲬtoﲭthe most abjectﲮageﲯso that notﲰhe knowsﲱafterﲲafterﲳhaving knownﲴﲵanythingﲶAnd you seeﲷthe earthﲸbarrenﲹthen whenﲺWe send downﲻon itﲼwaterﲽit gets stirredﲾand it swellsﲿand growsﳀofﳁeveryﳂkindﳃbeautifulﳄ(5)
O humanity! If you are in doubt about the Resurrection, then ˹know that˺ We did create you1 from dust, then from a sperm-drop,2 then ˹developed you into˺ a clinging clot,3 then a lump of flesh4—fully formed or unformed5—in order to demonstrate ˹Our power˺ to you. ˹Then˺ We settle whatever ˹embryo˺ We will in the womb for an appointed term, then bring you forth as infants, so that you may reach your prime. Some of you ˹may˺ die ˹young˺, while others are left to reach the most feeble stage of life so that they may know nothing after having known much. And you see the earth lifeless, but as soon as We send down rain upon it, it begins to stir ˹to life˺ and swell, producing every type of pleasant plant.
