وَإِذا ذُكِّروا لا يَذكُرونَ

And when they are reminded, they remember not.

وَإِذا رَأَوا آيَةً يَستَسخِرونَ

And when they see a sign, they ridicule

وَقالوا إِن هـٰذا إِلّا سِحرٌ مُبينٌ

And say, "This is not but obvious magic.

أَإِذا مِتنا وَكُنّا تُرابًا وَعِظامًا أَإِنّا لَمَبعوثونَ

When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

أَوَآباؤُنَا الأَوَّلونَ

And our forefathers [as well]?"

فَإِنَّما هِيَ زَجرَةٌ واحِدَةٌ فَإِذا هُم يَنظُرونَ

It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing.

وَقالوا يا وَيلَنا هـٰذا يَومُ الدّينِ

They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."

هـٰذا يَومُ الفَصلِ الَّذي كُنتُم بِهِ تُكَذِّبونَ

[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny."

احشُرُوا الَّذينَ ظَلَموا وَأَزواجَهُم وَما كانوا يَعبُدونَ

[The angels will be ordered], "Gather those who committed wrong, their kinds, and what they used to worship

مِن دونِ اللَّهِ فَاهدوهُم إِلىٰ صِراطِ الجَحيمِ

Other than Allah, and guide them to the path of Hellfire
