| In the Name of Allaah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. |
 |
| 1. |
When the Event (i.e, the Day of Resurrection)
befalls. |
 |
| 2. |
And there can be no denying of its befalling. |
 |
| 3. |
It will bring low (some); (and others) it will exalt; |
 |
| 4. |
When the earth will be shaken with a terrible shake. |
 |
| 5. |
And the mountains will be powdered to dust. |
 |
| 6. |
So that they will become floating dust particles. |
 |
| 7. |
And you (all) will be in three kinds (i.e, separate groups). |
 |
| 8. |
So those on the Right Hand (i.e, those who will be given their Records in their right hands), Who will be those on the Right Hand? (As a respect for them, because they will enter Paradise). |
 |
| 9. |
And those on the Left Hand (i.e, those who will be given their Record in their left hands), Who will be those on the Left Hand? (As a disgrace for them, because they will enter Hell). |
 |
| 10. |
And those foremost [(in Islaamic Faith of Monotheism and in performing righteous deeds) in the life of this world on the very first call for to embrace Islaam,] will be foremost (in Paradise). |
 |
| 11. |
These will be those nearest to Allaah. |
 |
| 12. |
In the Gardens of delight (Paradise). |
 |
| 13. |
A multitude of those (foremost) will be from the first generations (who embraced Islaam). |
 |
| 14. |
And a few of those (foremost) will be from the later time (generations). |
 |
| 15. |
(They will be) on thrones woven with gold and precious stones, |
 |
| 16. |
Reclining thereon, face to face. |
 |
| 17. |
They will be served by immortal boys, |
 |
| 18. |
With cups, and jugs, and a glass from the flowing wine, |
 |
| 19. |
Wherefrom they will get neither any aching of the head, nor any intoxication. |
 |
| 20. |
And fruit; that they may choose. |
 |
| 21. |
And the flesh of fowls that they desire. |
 |
| 22. |
And (there will be) Houris (fair females) with wide, lovely eyes (as wives for the pious), |
 |
| 23. |
Like unto preserved pearls. |
 |
| 24. |
A reward for what they used to do. |
 |
| 25. |
No Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk) will
they hear therein, nor any sinful speech (like backbiting, etc.). |
 |
| 26. |
But only the saying of: Salam!, Salam! (greetings with peace) ! |
 |
| 27. |
And those on the Right Hand, - Who will be those on the Right Hand? |
 |
| 28. |
(They will be) among thornless lote-trees, |
 |
| 29. |
Among Talh (banana-trees) with fruits piled one above another, |
 |
| 30. |
In shade long-extended, |
 |
| 31. |
By water flowing constantly, |
 |
| 32. |
And fruit in plenty, |
 |
| 33. |
Whose season is not limited, and their supply will not be cut off, |
 |
| 34. |
And on couches or thrones, raised high. |
 |
| 35. |
Verily, We have created them (maidens) of special creation. |
 |
| 36. |
And made them virgins. |
 |
| 37. |
Loving (their husbands only), equal in age. |
 |
| 38. |
For those on the Right Hand. |
 |
| 39. |
A multitude of those (on the Right Hand) will be from the first generation (who embraced Islaam). |
 |
| 40. |
And a multitude of those (on the Right Hand) will be from the later times (generations). |
 |
| 41. |
And those on the Left Hand Who will be those on the Left Hand? |
 |
| 42. |
In fierce hot wind and boiling water, |
 |
| 43. |
And shadow of black smoke, |
 |
| 44. |
(That shadow) neither cool, nor (even) good, |
 |
| 45. |
Verily, before that, they indulged in luxury, |
 |
| 46. |
And were persisting in great sin (joining partners in worship along with Allaah, committing murders and other crimes, etc.) |
 |
| 47. |
And they used to say: "When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be resurrected? |
 |
| 48. |
"And also our forefathers?" |
 |
| 49. |
Say (O Muhammad sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam): "(Yes) verily, those of old, and those of later times. |
 |
| 50. |
"All will surely be gathered together for appointed Meeting of a known Day. |
 |
| 51. |
"Then moreover, verily, you the erring-ones,
the deniers (of Resurrection)! |
 |
| 52. |
"You verily will eat of the trees of Zaqqum. |
 |
| 53. |
"Then you will fill your bellies therewith, |
 |
| 54. |
"And drink boiling water on top of it, |
 |
| 55. |
"So you will drink (that) like thirsty camels!" |
 |
| 56. |
That will be their entertainment on the Day of Recompense! |
 |
| 57. |
We created you, then why do you believe not? |
 |
| 58. |
Then tell Me (about) the human semen that you emit. |
 |
| 59. |
Is it you who create it (i.e, make this semen into a perfect human being), or are We the Creator? |
 |
| 60. |
We have decreed death to you all, and We are not unable, |
 |
| 61. |
To transfigure you and create you in (forms) that you know not. |
 |
| 62. |
And indeed, you have already known the first form of creation (i.e, the creation of Adam), why then do you not remember or take heed? |
 |
| 63. |
Tell Me! The seed that you sow in the ground. |
 |
| 64. |
Is it you that make it grow, or are We the Grower? |
 |
| 65. |
Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry pieces, and you would be regretful (or left in wonderment). |
 |
| 66. |
(Saying): "We are indeed Mughramun (i.e, ruined or lost the money without any profit, or punished by the loss of all that we spend for cultivation, etc.)! |
 |
| 67. |
"Nay, but we are deprived!" |
 |
| 68. |
Tell Me! The water that you drink. |
 |
| 69. |
Is it you who cause it from the rainclouds to come down, or are We the Causer of it to come down? |
 |
| 70. |
If We willed, We verily could make it salt (and undrinkable), why then do you not give thanks (to Allaah)? |
 |
| 71. |
Tell Me! The fire which you kindle, |
 |
| 72. |
Is it you who made the tree thereof to grow, or are We the Grower? |
 |
| 73. |
We have made it a Reminder (for the Hell-fire, in the Hereafter); and an article of use for the travellers (and all the others, in this world). |
 |
| 74. |
Then glorify with praises the Name of your
Lord, the Most Great. |
 |
| 75. |
So I swear by Mawaqi (setting or the mansions, etc.) of the stars (they traverse). |
 |
| 76. |
And verily, that is indeed a great oath, if you but know. |
 |
| 77. |
That (this) is indeed an honourable recital (the Noble Qur'aan). |
 |
| 78. |
In a Book well-guarded (with Allaah in the heaven i.e, Al-Lauh Al-Mahfooz). |
 |
| 79. |
Which (that Book with Allaah) none can touch but the purified (i.e, the angels). |
 |
| 80. |
A Revelation (this Qur'aan) from the Lord of the 'Alameen (mankind, jinns and all that exists). |
 |
| 81. |
Is it such a talk (this Qur'aan) that you (disbelievers) deny? |
 |
| 82. |
And instead (of thanking Allaah) for the provision He gives you, on the contrary, you deny Him (by disbelief)! |
 |
| 83. |
Then why do you not (intervene) when (the soul of a dying person) reaches the throat? |
 |
| 84. |
And you at the moment are looking on, |
 |
| 85. |
But We (i.e, Our angels who take the soul) are nearer to him than you, but you see not, |
 |
| 86. |
Then why do you not, if you are exempt from the reckoning and recompense (punishment, etc.) |
 |
| 87. |
Bring back the soul (to its body), if you are truthful? |
 |
| 88. |
Then, if he (the dying person) be of the Muqarrabun (those brought near to Allaah), |
 |
| 89. |
(There is for him) rest and provision, and a Garden of delights (Paradise). |
 |
| 90. |
And if he (the dying person) be of those on the Right Hand, |
 |
| 91. |
Then there is safety and peace (from the Punishment of Allaah) for (you as you are from) those on the Right Hand. |
 |
| 92. |
But if he (the dying person) be of the denying (of the Resurrection), the erring (away from the Right Path of Islaamic Monotheism), |
 |
| 93. |
Then for him is entertainment with boiling water. |
 |
| 94. |
And burning in Hell-fire. |
 |
| 95. |
Verily, this! This is an absolute Truth with certainty. |
 |
| 96. |
So glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great. |
