لِأَيِّ يَومٍ أُجِّلَت

For what Day was it postponed?

لِيَومِ الفَصلِ

For the Day of Judgement.

وَما أَدراكَ ما يَومُ الفَصلِ

And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement?

وَيلٌ يَومَئِذٍ لِلمُكَذِّبينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

أَلَم نُهلِكِ الأَوَّلينَ

Did We not destroy the former peoples?

كَذٰلِكَ نَفعَلُ بِالمُجرِمينَ

Thus do We deal with the criminals.

وَيلٌ يَومَئِذٍ لِلمُكَذِّبينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

أَلَم نَخلُقكُم مِن ماءٍ مَهينٍ

Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?

فَجَعَلناهُ في قَرارٍ مَكينٍ

And We placed it in a firm lodging

إِلىٰ قَدَرٍ مَعلومٍ

For a known extent.
