فَأتوا بِآبائِنا إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

Then bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."

أَهُم خَيرٌ أَم قَومُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۚ أَهلَكناهُم ۖ إِنَّهُم كانوا مُجرِمينَ

Are they better or the people of Tubba' and those before them? We destroyed them, [for] indeed, they were criminals.

وَما خَلَقنَا السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضَ وَما بَينَهُما لاعِبينَ

And We did not create the heavens and earth and that between them in play.

ما خَلَقناهُما إِلّا بِالحَقِّ وَلـٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَهُم لا يَعلَمونَ

We did not create them except in truth, but most of them do not know.

إِنَّ يَومَ الفَصلِ ميقاتُهُم أَجمَعينَ

Indeed, the Day of Judgement is the appointed time for them all -

إِلّا مَن رَحِمَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ

Except those [believers] on whom Allah has mercy. Indeed, He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

إِنَّ شَجَرَتَ الزَّقّومِ

Indeed, the tree of zaqqum

طَعامُ الأَثيمِ

Is food for the sinful.

كَالمُهلِ يَغلي فِي البُطونِ

Like murky oil, it boils within bellies

كَغَليِ الحَميمِ

Like the boiling of scalding water.
