| 1. * | A questioner asked you about the punishment which is bound to happen.[1] |
| 2. * | It is for the disbelievers and there is none to avert it.[2] |
| 3. * | It will come from Allah, the Owner of the Ways of Ascent.[3] |
| 4. * | The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a Day the measure of which is fifty thousand years.[4] |
| 5. * | Therefore, endure with graceful patience.[5] |
| 6. * | They see it (Day of Judgment) to be far-off:[6] |
| 7. * | but We see it quite near.[7] |
| 8. * | On that Day, the sky shall become like molten brass[8] |
| 9. * | and the mountains like tufts of wool;[9] |
| 10. * | even a close friend will not ask of his friend,[10] |
| 11. * | though they will see each other. To save himself from the punishment of that Day, the culprit (disbeliever) will wish to give his children,[11] |
| 12. * | his wife, his brother,[12] |
| 13. * | his relatives who gave him shelter -[13] |
| 14. * | and all that is in the earth, in ransom to save himself.[14] |
| 15. * | By no means! It will be the fire of hell,[15] |
| 16. * | eager to pluck out his skull,[16] |
| 17. * | it will be calling all those who try to escape and turn their back,[17] |
| 18. * | who collected wealth and withheld it.[18] |
| 19. * | Indeed, man has been created impatient,[19] |
| 20. * | when evil befalls him, he becomes despondent;[20] |
| 21. * | but when blessed with good fortune, he becomes stingy;[21] |
| 22. * | with the exception of those who offer the Salah (prayer),[22] |
| 23. * | remain steadfast in their Salah (prayer),[23] |
| 24. * | set aside a due share in their wealth[24] |
| 25. * | for the beggars and the deprived,[25] |
| 26. * | accept the truth of the Day of Judgment,[26] |
| 27. * | dread the punishment of their Lord[27] |
| 28. * | - for none is secure from the punishment of their Lord [28] |
| 29. * | and guard their private parts,[29] |
| 30. * | except from their wives and those whom their right hands possess, for in their case they are not blameworthy.[30] |
| 31. * | As for those who seek to go beyond this, they are transgressors.[31] |
| 32. * | Those who keep their trusts and honor their promises,[32] |
| 33. * | who stand firm in their testimonies[33] |
| 34. * | and strictly guard their Salah (prayers).[34] |
| 35. * | It is they who shall live with honor in paradise.[35] |
| 36. * | What is the matter with the disbelievers that they are rushing towards you,[36] |
| 37. * | from the right and from the left, in groups?[37] |
| 38. * | Are they each seeking to enter the garden of bliss?[38] |
| 39. * | By no means! Surely, We have created them out of that what they (unbelievers) know.[39] |
| 40. * | But nay! I swear by the Lord of the easts and the wests, that We have the power[40] |
| 41. * | to destroy them and replace them with others better than them, and nothing can hinder Us from doing so.[41] |
| 42. * | Therefore, leave them to plunge in vain talk and blunder about until they face that Day of theirs which they are being promised.[42] |
| 43. * | The Day when they shall rush forward from their graves, as if they were racing towards a goal, with downcast eyes and countenances distorted with shame.[43] |
| 44. * | Such will be the Day, which they are being promised.[44] |
