1. * |
Nay, I swear by the day of resurrection!
|
|
2. * |
Nay, I swear by the self-accusing spirit!
|
|
3. * |
Does man think that We shall not gather his bones?
|
|
4. * |
Yea, We are Powerful to make complete his whole make.
|
|
5. * |
Nay, man desires to go on doing evil in front of him.
|
|
6. * |
He asks: When is the day of Resurrection?
|
|
7. * |
So when the sight is confused,
|
|
8. * |
And the moon becomes dark,
|
|
9. * |
And the sun and the moon are brought together --
|
|
10. * |
Man will say on that day: Whither to flee?
|
|
11. * |
No! There is no refuge!
|
|
12. * |
With thy Lord on that day is the place of rest.
|
|
13. * |
Man will that day be informed of what he sent before and what he put off.
|
|
14. * |
Nay, man is evidence against himself,
|
|
15. * |
Though he put up excuses.
|
|
16. * |
Move not thy tongue therewith to make haste with it.
|
|
17. * |
Surely on Us rests the collecting of it and the reciting of it.
|
|
18. * |
So when We recite it, follow its recitation.
|
|
19. * |
Again on Us rests the explaining of it.
|
|
20. * |
Nay, but you love the present life,
|
|
21. * |
And neglect the hereafter.
|
|
22. * |
(Some) faces that day will be bright,
|
|
23. * |
Looking to their Lord.
|
|
24. * |
And (other) faces that day will be gloomy,
|
|
25. * |
Knowing that a great disaster will be made to befall them.
|
|
26. * |
Nay, when it comes up to the throat,
|
|
27. * |
And it is said: Who will ascend (with it)?
|
|
28. * |
And he is sure that it is the parting,
|
|
29. * |
And affliction is combined with affliction --
|
|
30. * |
To thy Lord on that day is the driving.
|
|
31. * |
So he accepted not the truth nor prayed,
|
|
32. * |
But denied and turned back,
|
|
33. * |
Then he went to his people in haughtiness.
|
|
34. * |
Nearer to thee and nearer,
|
|
35. * |
Again, nearer to thee and nearer (is woe).
|
|
36. * |
Does man think that he will be left aimless?
|
|
37. * |
Was he not a small life-germ in sperm emitted?
|
|
38. * |
Then he was a clot; so He created (him), then made (him) perfect.
|
|
39. * |
Then He made of him two kinds, the male and the female.
|
|
40. * |
Is not He powerful to give life to the dead?
