وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ مِنَ الْأَنْبَاءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ ٤
There have already come to them Recitals wherein there is (enough) to check (them),
54:5
حِكْمَةٌ بَالِغَةٌ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ النُّذُرُ ٥
Mature wisdom;- but (the preaching of) Warners profits them not.
54:6
فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ ۘ يَوْمَ يَدْعُ الدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَيْءٍ نُكُرٍ ٦
Therefore, (O Prophet,) turn away from them. The Day that the Caller will call (them) to a terrible affair,
54:7
خُشَّعًا أَبْصَارُهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُنْتَشِرٌ ٧
They will come forth,- their eyes humbled - from (their) graves, (torpid) like locusts scattered abroad,
54:8
مُهْطِعِينَ إِلَى الدَّاعِ ۖ يَقُولُ الْكَافِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ ٨
Hastening, with eyes transfixed, towards the Caller!- "Hard is this Day!", the Unbelievers will say.
