| 1. * | When the Event comes to pass -- |
| 2. * | There is no belying its coming to pass -- |
| 3. * | Abasing (some), exalting (others) -- |
| 4. * | When the earth is shaken with a (severe) shaking, |
| 5. * | And the mountains are crumbled to pieces, |
| 6. * | So they are as scattered dust, |
| 7. * | And you are three sorts. |
| 8. * | So those on the right hand; how (happy) are those on the right-hand! |
| 9. * | And those on the left; how (wretched) are those on the left! |
| 10. * | And the foremost are the foremost -- |
| 11. * | These are drawn nigh (to Allah). |
| 12. * | In Gardens of bliss |
| 13. * | A multitude from among the first, |
| 14. * | And a few from among those of later times, |
| 15. * | On thrones inwrought, |
| 16. * | Reclining on them, facing each other. |
| 17. * | Round about them will go youths never altering in age, |
| 18. * | With goblets and ewers, and a cup of pure drink -- |
| 19. * | They are not affected with headache thereby, nor are they intoxicated, |
| 20. * | And fruits that they choose, |
| 21. * | And flesh of fowl that they desire, |
| 22. * | And pure, beautiful ones, |
| 23. * | Like to hidden pearls. |
| 24. * | A reward for what they did. |
| 25. * | They hear therein no vain or sinful talk -- |
| 26. * | But only the saying, Peace! Peace! |
| 27. * | And those on the right hand; how (happy) are those on the right hand! |
| 28. * | Amid thornless lote-trees, |
| 29. * | And clustered banana-trees, |
| 30. * | And extensive shade, |
| 31. * | And water gushing, |
| 32. * | And abundant fruit, |
| 33. * | Neither intercepted, nor forbidden, |
| 34. * | And exalted couches. |
| 35. * | Surely We have created them a (new) creation. |
| 36. * | So We have made them virgins, |
| 37. * | Loving, equals in age, |
| 38. * | For those on the right hand. |
| 39. * | A multitude from among the first, |
| 40. * | And a multitude from among those of later times. |
| 41. * | And those on the left hand; how (wretched) are those on the left hand! |
| 42. * | In hot wind and boiling water, |
| 43. * | And shadow of black smoke, |
| 44. * | Neither cool nor refreshing. |
| 45. * | Surely they lived before that in ease. |
| 46. * | And they persisted in the great violation. |
| 47. * | And they used to say: When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be rised? |
| 48. * | Or our fathers of yore? |
| 49. * | Say: The ancients and those of later times |
| 50. * | Will surely be gathered together for the appointed hour of a known day. |
| 51. * | Then shall you, O you who err and deny, |
| 52. * | East of the tree of Zaqqum, |
| 53. * | And fill (your) bellies with it; |
| 54. * | Then drink after it of boiling water; |
| 55. * | And drink as drinks the thirsty camel. |
| 56. * | This is their entertainment on the day of Requital. |
| 57. * | We have created you, why do you not then accept? |
| 58. * | See you that which you emit? |
| 59. * | Is it you that create it or are We the Creators? |
| 60. * | We have ordained death among you and We are not to be overcome, |
| 61. * | That We may change your state and make you grow into what you know not. |
| 62. * | And certainly you know the first growth, why do you not then mind? |
| 63. * | See you what you sow? |
| 64. * | Is it you that cause it to grow, or are We the Causer of growth? |
| 65. * | If We pleased, We would make it chaff, then would you lament: |
| 66. * | Surely we are burdened with debt: |
| 67. * | Nay, we are deprived. |
| 68. * | See you the water which you drink? |
| 69. * | Do you bring it down from the clouds, or are We the Bringer? |
| 70. * | If We pleased, We could make it saltish; why give you not thanks? |
| 71. * | See you the fire which you kindle? |
| 72. * | Is it you that produce the trees for it, or are We the Producer? |
| 73. * | We have made it a reminder and an advantage for the wayfarers of the desert. |
| 74. * | So glorify the name of thy Lord, the Incomparably Great. |
| 75. * | But nay, I swear by revelation of portions (of the Qur’an)! -- |
| 76. * | And it is a great oath indeed, if you knew -- |
| 77. * | Surely it is a bounteous Qur’an, |
| 78. * | In a book that is protected, |
| 79. * | Which none touches save the purified ones. |
| 80. * | A revelation from the Lord of the worlds. |
| 81. * | Is it this announcement that you disdain? |
| 82. * | And make your denial your means of subsistence. |
| 83. * | Why is it not then that when it comes up to the throat, |
| 84. * | And you at that time look on -- |
| 85. * | And We are nearer to it than you, but you see not -- |
| 86. * | Why then, if you are not held under authority, |
| 87. * | Do you not send it back, if you are truthful? |
| 88. * | Then if he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah), |
| 89. * | Then happiness and bounty and a Garden of bliss. |
| 90. * | And if he is one of those on the right hand, |
| 91. * | Then peace to thee from those on the right hand. |
| 92. * | And if he is one of the rejectors, the erring ones, |
| 93. * | He has an entertainment of boiling water, |
| 94. * | And burning in hell. |
| 95. * | Surely this is a certain truth. |
| 96. * | So glorify the name of thy Lord, the Incomparably Great. |
