| 1. * | I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked, |
| 2. * | And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed, |
| 3. * | And by those who float in space, |
| 4. * | Then those who are foremost going ahead, |
| 5. * | Then those who regulate the affair. |
| 6. * | The day on which the quaking one shall quake, |
| 7. * | What must happen afterwards shall follow it. |
| 8. * | Hearts on that day shall palpitate, |
| 9. * | Their eyes cast down. |
| 10. * | They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state? |
| 11. * | What! when we are rotten bones? |
| 12. * | They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss. |
| 13. * | But it shall be only a single cry, |
| 14. * | When lo! they shall be wakeful. |
| 15. * | Has not there come to you the story of Musa? |
| 16. * | When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice, |
| 17. * | Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate. |
| 18. * | Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself: |
| 19. * | And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear. |
| 20. * | So he showed him the mighty sign. |
| 21. * | But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed. |
| 22. * | Then he went back hastily. |
| 23. * | Then he gathered (men) and called out. |
| 24. * | Then he said: I am your lord, the most high. |
| 25. * | So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life. |
| 26. * | Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears. |
| 27. * | Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it. |
| 28. * | He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state. |
| 29. * | And He made dark its night and brought out its light. |
| 30. * | And the earth, He expanded it after that. |
| 31. * | He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage. |
| 32. * | And the mountains, He made them firm, |
| 33. * | A provision for you and for your cattle. |
| 34. * | But when the great predominating calamity comes; |
| 35. * | The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after, |
| 36. * | And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees |
| 37. * | Then as for him who is inordinate, |
| 38. * | And prefers the life of this world, |
| 39. * | Then surely the hell, that is the abode. |
| 40. * | And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires, |
| 41. * | Then surely the garden-- that is the abode. |
| 42. * | They ask you about the hour, when it will come. |
| 43. * | About what! You are one to remind of it. |
| 44. * | To your Lord is the goal of it. |
| 45. * | You are only a warner to him who would fear it. |
| 46. * | On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it. |
