The Hidden Secret (Al-Muddath-thir)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
O you (Muhammad SAW) enveloped (in garments)! 1 stand up, deliver your warning, 2 And your Lord (Allah) magnify! 3 And your clothing purify 4 And keep away from Ar-Rujz (the idols)! 5 And show not favour, seeking wordly gain! 6 But for your Lord be patient. 7 Finally, when the Trumpet is sounded, 8 Surely that day will be a day of anguish, 9 Not easy upon the disbelievers. 10 Let Me alone with him whom I created lonely. 11 and designated for him ample wealth, 12 And sons to be by his side!- 13 And made things easy for them. 14 and who still desires more. 15 By no means! He has been stubbornly hostile to Our revelation: 16 Soon I shall mount him on Saood, the hill of fire. 17 For he thought and he plotted;- 18 death seized him, how was his determining! 19 And again perish he! How maliciously he devised! 20 He looked (at others); 21 and then he frowns and glares, 22 Then he turned back and was arrogant 23 and said: 'This is no more than traced sorcery; 24 "This is nothing but the word of a human being!" 25 Him shall I fling unto the burning. 26 - Ah, what will convey unto thee what that burning is! - 27 It neither leaves, nor spares. 28 It glows and burns the skin. 29 Over it are nineteen. 30 We have not appointed the guards of hell, except angels; and did not keep this number except to test the disbelievers – in order that the People given the Book(s) may be convinced, and to increase the faith of the believers – and so that the People given the Book(s) and the Muslims may not have any doubt – and so that those in whose hearts is a disease and the disbelievers, may say, “What does Allah mean by this amazing example?” This is how Allah sends astray whomever He wills, and guides whomever He wills; and no one knows the armies of Allah except Him; and this is not but an advice to man. 31
