"The Holy Quran", tr. by Yusuf Ali, [1934],

Sra Vii.: A
'Rf, Or The Heights

Section 5

40.
Inna allatheena kaththaboo bi-ayatina waIstakbaroo AAanha la tufattahu lahum abwabu aLssama-i wala yadkhuloona aljannata hatta yalija aljamalu fee sammi alkhiyati wakathalika najzee almujrimeenA

40.
To those who reject

Our Signs and treat them

With arrogance, no opening

Will there be of the gates

Of heaven, nor will they

Enter the Garden, until

The camel can pass

Through the eye of the needle:


Such is Our reward

For those in sin.

41.
Lahum min jahannama mihadun wamin fawqihim ghawashin wakathalika najzee aL"thth"alimeenA

41.
For them there is

Hell, as a couch

(Below) and folds and folds

Of covering above: such

Is Our requital of those

Who do wrong.

42.
WaAllatheena amanoo waAAamiloo aLssalihati la nukallifu nafsan illa wusAAaha ola-ika as-habu aljannati hum feeha khalidoonA

42.
But those who believe

And work righteousness,--

No burden do We place

On any soul, but that

Which it can bear,

They will be Companions

Of the Garden, therein

To dwell (for ever).

43.
WanazaAAna ma fee sudoorihim min ghillin tajree min tahtihimu al-anharu waqaloo alhamdu lillahi allathee hadana lihatha wama kunna linahtadiya lawla an hadana Allahu laqad jaat rusulu rabbina biAlhaqqi wanoodoo an tilkumu aljannatu oorithtumooha bima kuntum taAAmaloonA

43.
And We shall remove

From their hearts any

Lurking sense of injury;--

Beneath them will be

Rivers flowing;--and they

Shall say: "Praise be, to God,

Who hath guided us

To this (felicity): never

Could we have found

Guidance, had it not been

For the guidance of God:


Indeed it was the truth.

That the Apostles of our Lord

Brought unto us." And they

Shall hear the cry:


"Behold! the Garden before you!

Ye have been made

Its inheritors, for your

Deeds (of righteousness).
"

44. Wanada as-habu aljannati as-haba aLnnari an qad wajadna ma waAAadana rabbuna haqqan fahal wajadtum ma waAAada rabbukum haqqan qaloo naAAam faaththana mu-aththinun baynahum an laAAnatu Allahi AAala aL"thth"alimeenA

44.
The Companions of the Garden

Will call out to the Companions

Of the Fire: "We have

Indeed found the promises

Of our Lord to us true:


Have you also found

Your Lord's promises true?"

They shall say, "Yes"; but

A Crier shall proclaim

Between them: "The curse

Of God is on the wrong-doers;--

45.
Allatheena yasuddoona AAan sabeeli Allahi wayabghoonaha AAiwajan wahum biAl-akhirati kafiroonA

45.
\"Those who would hinder (men)

From the path of God

And would seek in it

Something crooked:


They were those who

Denied the Hereafter."

46. Wabaynahuma hijabun waAAala al-aAArafi rijalun yaAArifoona kullan biseemahum wanadaw as-haba aljannati an salamun AAalaykum lam yadkhulooha wahum yatmaAAoonA

46.
Between them shall be

A veil, and on the Heights

Will be men

Who would know every one

By his marks: they will call

Out to the Companions

Of the Garden, "Peace on you":


They will not have entered,

But they will have

An assurance (ther.)

47.
Wa-itha surifat absaruhum tilqaa as-habi aLnnari qaloo rabbana la tajAAalna maAAa alqawmi aL"thth"alimeenA

47.
When their eyes shall be turned

Towards the Companions

Of the Fire, they will say:


"Our Lord! send us not

To the company

Of the wrong-doers."
