And the roof exalted,

وَٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْمَسْجُورِ 52:6

أَفَسِحْرٌ هَـٰذَآ أَمْ أَنتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ 52:15

Afasihrun hatha am antum latubsiroon

Is this magic, or do ye not see?

(And it is said unto them): Eat and drink in health (as a reward) for what ye used to do,

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍ ۖ وَزَوَّجْنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ 52:20

Muttaki-eena AAala sururin masfoofatinwazawwajnahum bihoorin AAeen

Reclining on ranged couches. And we wed them unto fair ones with wide, lovely eyes.

وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَـٰنٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَآ أَلَتْنَـٰهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ ۚ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ 52:21

And they who believe and whose seed follow them in faith, We cause their seed to join them (there), and We deprive them of nought of their (life's) work. Every man is a pledge for that which he hath earned.

وَأَمْدَدْنَـٰهُم بِفَـٰكِهَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ 52:22

Waamdadnahum bifakihatin walahminmimma yashtahoon

And We provide them with fruit and meat such as they desire.

يَتَنَـٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًا لَّا لَغْوٌ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌ 52:23

YatanazaAAoona feeha ka/san lalaghwun feeha wala ta/theem

There they pass from hand to hand a cup wherein is neither vanity nor cause of sin.

Waaqbala baAAduhum AAala baAAdinyatasaaloon

And some of them draw near unto others, questioning,

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِىٓ أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ 52:26

Qaloo inna kunna qablufee ahlina mushfiqeen

Saying: Lo! of old, when we were with our families, we were ever anxious;

فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ 52:27

Famanna Allahu AAalayna wawaqanaAAathaba assamoom

But Allah hath been gracious unto us and hath preserved us from the torment of the breath of Fire.

Inna kunna min qablu nadAAoohuinnahu huwa albarru arraheem

Qul tarabbasoo fa-innee maAAakum minaalmutarabbiseen
