[1] Of what do they ask one another?
[2] About the great event,
[3] About which they differ?
[4] Nay! they shall soon come to know
[5] Nay! Nay! they shall soon know.
[6] Have We not made the earth an even expanse?
[7] And the mountains as projections (thereon)?
[8] And We created you in pairs,
[9] And We made your sleep to be rest (to you),
[10] And We made the night to be a covering,
[11] And We made the day for seeking livelihood.
[12] And We made above you seven strong ones,
[13] And We made a shining lamp,
[14] And We send down from the clouds water pouring forth abundantly,
[15] That We may bring forth thereby corn and herbs,
[16] And gardens dense and luxuriant.
[17] Surely the day of decision is (a day) appointed:
[18] The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you shall come forth in hosts,
[19] And the heaven shall be opened so that it shall be all openings,
[20] And the mountains shall be moved off so that they shall remain a mere semblance.
[21] Surely hell lies in wait,
[22] A place of resort for the inordinate,
[23] Living therein for ages.
[24] They shall not taste therein cool nor drink
[25] But boiling and intensely cold water,
[26] Requital corresponding.
[27] Surely they feared not the account,
[28] And called Our communications a lie, giving the lie (to the truth).
[29] And We have recorded everything in a book,
[30] So taste! for We will not add to you aught but chastisement.
[31] Surely for those who guard (against evil) is achievement,
[32] Gardens and vineyards,
[33] And voluptuous women of equal age;
[34] And a pure cup.
[35] They shall not hear therein any vain words nor lying.
[36] A reward from your Lord, a gift according to a reckoning:
[37] The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, the Beneficent Allah, they shall not be able to address Him.
[38] The day on which the spirit and the angels shall stand in ranks; they shall not speak except he whom the Beneficent Allah permits and who speaks the right thing.
[39] That is the sure day, so whoever desires may take refuge with his Lord.
[40] Surely We have warned you of a chastisement near at hand: the day when man shall see what his two hands have sent before, and the unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust!
