سَأَلَ
سَآئِلُۢ
بِعَذَابٖ
وَاقِعٖ
١

A challenger1 has demanded a punishment bound to come
لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ
لَيۡسَ
لَهُۥ
دَافِعٞ
٢
for the disbelievers—to be averted by none—
مِّنَ
ٱللَّهِ
ذِي
ٱلۡمَعَارِجِ
٣
from Allah, Lord of pathways of ˹heavenly˺ ascent,
تَعۡرُجُ
ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ
وَٱلرُّوحُ
إِلَيۡهِ
فِي
يَوۡمٖ
كَانَ
مِقۡدَارُهُۥ
خَمۡسِينَ
أَلۡفَ
سَنَةٖ

˹through which˺ the angels and the ˹holy˺ spirit1 will ascend to Him on a Day fifty thousand years in length.2
فَٱصۡبِرۡ
صَبۡرٗا
جَمِيلًا

So endure ˹this denial, O  Prophet,˺ with beautiful patience.
إِنَّهُمۡ
يَرَوۡنَهُۥ
بَعِيدٗا

وَنَرَىٰهُ
قَرِيبٗا

but We see it as inevitable.
يَوۡمَ
تَكُونُ
ٱلسَّمَآءُ
كَٱلۡمُهۡلِ
٨
On that Day the sky will be like molten brass
وَتَكُونُ
ٱلۡجِبَالُ
كَٱلۡعِهۡنِ
٩
and the mountains like ˹tufts of˺ wool.
وَلَا
يَسۡـَٔلُ
حَمِيمٌ
حَمِيمٗا
١٠
And no close friend will ask ˹about˺ their friends,
