Has there reached you the story of Moses

Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan

When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa

Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha

Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed

Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka

Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha

And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]

Faarahu alayata alkubra

And he showed him the greatest sign

Fakaththaba waAAasa

But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity

Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa

The Day when man will remember that for which he strove

Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara

And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see

Faamma man tagha

So as for he who transgressed

Waathara alhayata alddunya

And preferred the life of the world

Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa

Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge

But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination

Fainna aljannata hiya almawa

Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge

Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha

They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival

Feema anta min thikraha

In what [position] are you that you should mention it

Ila rabbika muntahaha

To your Lord is its finality

Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha

You are only a warner for those who fear it

Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha

It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof
