hilali_khan
 
1.  *     I swear by the Day of Resurrection;
 
2.  *     And I swear by the self-reproaching person (a believer).
 
3.  *     Does man (a disbeliever) think that We shall not assemble his bones?
 
4.  *     Yes, We are Able to put together in perfect order the tips of his fingers.
 
5.  *     Nay! (Man denies Resurrection and Reckoning. So) he desires to continue committing sins.
 
6.  *     He asks: "When will be this Day of Resurrection?"
 
7.  *     So, when the sight shall be dazed,
 
8.  *     And the moon will be eclipsed,
 
9.  *     And the sun and moon will be joined together (by going one into the other or folded up or deprived of their light, etc.)
 
10.  *     On that Day man will say: "Where (is the refuge) to flee?"
 
11.  *     No! There is no refuge!
 
12.  *     Unto your Lord (Alone) will be the place of rest that Day.
 
13.  *     On that Day man will be informed of what he sent forward (of his evil or good deeds), and what he left behind (of his good or evil traditions).
 
14.  *     Nay! Man will be a witness against himself (as his body parts (skin, hands, legs, etc.) will speak about his deeds).
 
15.  *     Though he may put forth his excuses (to cover his evil deeds).
 
16.  *     Move not your tongue concerning (the Quran, O Muhammad SAW) to make haste therewith.
 
17.  *     It is for Us to collect it and to give you (O Muhammad SAW) the ability to recite it (the Quran),
 
18.  *     And when We have recited it to you (O Muhammad SAW through Jibrael (Gabriel)), then follow you its (the Qurans) recital.
 
19.  *     Then it is for Us (Allah) to make it clear to you,
 
20.  *     Not (as you think, that you (mankind) will not be resurrected and recompensed for your deeds), but (you men) love the present life of this world,
 
21.  *     And leave (neglect) the Hereafter.
 
22.  *     Some faces that Day shall be Nadirah (shining and radiant).
 
23.  *     Looking at their Lord (Allah);
 
24.  *     And some faces, that Day, will be Basirah (dark, gloomy, frowning, and sad),
 
25.  *     Thinking that some calamity was about to fall on them;
 
26.  *     Nay, when (the soul) reaches to the collar bone (i.e. up to the throat in its exit),
 
27.  *     And it will be said: "Who can cure him and save him from death?"
 
28.  *     And he (the dying person) will conclude that it was (the time) of departing (death);
 
29.  *     And leg will be joined with another leg (shrouded)
 
30.  *     The drive will be, on that Day, to your Lord (Allah)!
 
31.  *     So he (the disbeliever) neither believed (in this Quran, in the Message of Muhammad SAW) nor prayed!
 
32.  *     But on the contrary, he belied (this Quran and the Message of Muhammad SAW) and turned away!
 
33.  *     Then he walked in full pride to his family admiring himself!
 
34.  *     Woe to you (O man (disbeliever))! And then (again) woe to you!
 
35.  *     Again, woe to you (O man (disbeliever))! And then (again) woe to you!
 
36.  *     Does man think that he will be left Suda (neglected without being punished or rewarded for the obligatory duties enjoined by his Lord (Allah) on him)?
 
37.  *     Was he not a Nutfah (mixed male and female discharge of semen) poured forth?
 
38.  *     Then he became an Alaqa (a clot); then (Allah) shaped and fashioned (him) in due proportion.
 
39.  *     And made him in two sexes, male and female.
 
40.  *     Is not He (Allah Who does that), Able to give life to the dead? (Yes! He is Able to do all things).
