ثُمَّ ٱسۡتَوَىٰٓ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَهِيَ دُخَانٞ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَلِلۡأَرۡضِ ٱئۡتِيَا طَوۡعًا أَوۡ كَرۡهٗا قَالَتَآ أَتَيۡنَا طَآئِعِينَ
Il S'est ensuite adressé au ciel qui était alors fumée et lui dit, ainsi qu'à la terre: «Venez tous deux, bon gré, mal gré». Tous deux dirent: «Nous venons obéissants»

Then He turned to the heaven when it was smoke consisting of rising vapours and He said to it and to the earth “Come both of you to what I desire from you willingly or unwillingly!” taw‘an aw karhan their syntactical locus is that of a circumstantial qualifier in other words ‘Come being obedient or coerced’. They said “We come together with all those inhabiting us willingly!” tā’i‘īna mainly indicates masculine rational beings; it may also be that they are referred to in this way because they are being addressed thus.
فَقَضَىٰهُنَّ سَبۡعَ سَمَٰوَاتٖ فِي يَوۡمَيۡنِ وَأَوۡحَىٰ فِي كُلِّ سَمَآءٍ أَمۡرَهَاۚ وَزَيَّنَّا ٱلسَّمَآءَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا بِمَصَٰبِيحَ وَحِفۡظٗاۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقۡدِيرُ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡعَلِيمِ
Il décréta d'en faire sept cieux en deux jours et révéla à chaque ciel sa fonction. Et Nous avons décoré le ciel le plus proche de lampes [étoiles] et l'avons protégé. Tel est l'Ordre établi par le Puissant, l'Omniscient

Then He ordained them the suffixed pronoun refers back to al-samā’ ‘the heaven’ because it al-samā’ actually denotes that plural sense to which it will lead in the following clause in other words He made them to be seven heavens in two days — Thursday and Friday. He completed them in the last hour thereof in which He created Adam — which is why He does not say sawā’an ‘evenly’ here as He did earlier; what is said here concords with those verse in which it is stated that the heavens and the earth were created in six days; and in each heaven He revealed its commandment’ that to which He commanded those in it to follow in the way of obedience and worship. And We adorned the lowest heaven with lamps with stars and this was also to guard them hifzan is in the accusative because of its implicit verbal sense in other words ‘We guarded it against the devils lest they try to listen therein to the angels by stealth with meteors’. That is the ordaining of the Mighty in His kingdom the Knower of His creatures.
فَإِنۡ أَعۡرَضُواْ فَقُلۡ أَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ صَٰعِقَةٗ مِّثۡلَ صَٰعِقَةِ عَادٖ وَثَمُودَ
S'ils s'en détournent, alors dis-leur; «Je vous ai avertis d'une foudre semblable à celle qui frappa les 'Aad et les Tamûd»

But if they that is the Meccan disbelievers turn away from belief after this clear statement then say ‘I warn you of I threaten you with a thunderbolt like the thunderbolt of ‘Ād and Thamūd’ in other words a chastisement that will destroy you like the one that destroyed them.
إِذۡ جَآءَتۡهُمُ ٱلرُّسُلُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَۖ قَالُواْ لَوۡ شَآءَ رَبُّنَا لَأَنزَلَ مَلَـٰٓئِكَةٗ فَإِنَّا بِمَآ أُرۡسِلۡتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ
Quand les Messagers leur étaient venus, de devant eux et par derrière, [leur disant]: «N'adorez qu'Allah», ils dirent: «Si notre Seigneur avait voulu, Il aurait certainement fait descendre des Anges. Nous ne croyons donc pas [au message] avec lequel vous avez été envoyés»

When the messengers came to them from in front of them and from behind them that is coming to them to warn them and leaving them behind as they departed but they disbelieved as will be stated shortly — the destruction of them meant would only take place in his time — saying ‘Worship none but God’ they said ‘Had our Lord willed He would have surely sent down to us angels; therefore we indeed disbelieve in what you according to your claim have been sent with!’
فَأَمَّا عَادٞ فَٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ بِغَيۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّ وَقَالُواْ مَنۡ أَشَدُّ مِنَّا قُوَّةًۖ أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَهُمۡ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنۡهُمۡ قُوَّةٗۖ وَكَانُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا يَجۡحَدُونَ
Quant aux 'Aad, ils s'enflèrent d'orgueil sur terre injustement et dirent: «Qui est plus fort que nous?» Quoi! N'ont-ils pas vu qu'en vérité Allah qui les a créés est plus fort qu'eux? Et ils reniaient Nos signes

As for ‘Ād they acted arrogantly in the earth without right and they said upon their being threatened with the chastisement ‘Who is more powerful than us in might?’ in other words they believed no one to be so — a single man among them could pull out a huge rock from a mountainside and have the strength to place it wherever he wished. Did they not see did they not realise that God He Who created them was more powerful than them in might? And they used to deny Our signs the miracles We sent down.
