In the name of Allah,
the Gracious, the Merciful
- I swear by the Day of Resurrection.
- And I swear by the blaming soul.
- Does man think that We will not reassemble his bones?
- Yes indeed; We are Able to reconstruct his
fingertips. - But man wants to deny what is ahead of
him. - He asks, “When is the Day of Resurrection?”
- When vision is dazzled.
- And the moon is eclipsed.
- And the sun and the moon are joined together.
- On that Day, man will say, “Where is the
escape?” - No indeed! There is no refuge.
- To your Lord on that Day is the settlement.
- On that Day man will be informed of everything he put forward, and everything he left
behind. - And man will be evidence against himself.
- Even as he presents his excuses.
- Do not wag your tongue with it, to hurry
on with it. - Upon Us is its collection and its recitation.
- Then, when We have recited it, follow its
recitation. - Then upon Us is its explanation.
- Alas, you love the fleeting life.
- And you disregard the Hereafter.
- Faces on that Day will be radiant.
- Looking towards their Lord.
- And faces on that Day will be gloomy.
- Realizing that a back-breaker has befallen
them. - Indeed, when it has reached the breast bones.
- And it is said, “Who is the healer?”
- And He realizes that it is the parting.
- And leg is entwined with leg.
- To your Lord on that Day is the drive.
- He neither believed nor prayed.
- But he denied and turned away.
- Then he went to his family, full of pride.
- Woe to you; and woe.
- Then again: Woe to you; and woe.
- Does man think that he will be left without
purpose? - Was he not a drop of ejaculated semen?
- Then he became a clot. And He created and
proportioned? - And made of him the two sexes, the male
and the female? - Is He not Able to revive the dead?
