54. Al-Qamar (1 to 3)
The hour drew nigh and the moon was rent in twain ., And if they behold a portent they turn away and say :, They denied ( the Truth ) and followed their own lusts …
اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ (1)
Iqtarabati alssaAAatu wainshaqqa alqamaru
The hour drew nigh and the moon was rent in twain .
وَإِن يَرَوْا آيَةً يُعْرِضُوا وَيَقُولُوا سِحْرٌ مُّسْتَمِرٌّ (2)
Wain yaraw ayatan yuAAridoo wayaqooloo sihrun mustamirrun
And if they behold a portent they turn away and say : Prolonged illusion .
وَكَذَّبُوا وَاتَّبَعُوا أَهْوَاءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ (3)
Wakaththaboo waittabaAAoo ahwaahum wakullu amrin mustaqirrun
They denied ( the Truth ) and followed their own lusts . Yet everything will come to a decision
