The Inevitable (i.e.
the Day of Resurrection)! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. |
What is the Inevitable? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. |
And what will make you know what the
Inevitable is? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. |
Thamud and 'Ad
people denied the Qari'ah [the
striking Hour (of Judgment)]! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. |
As for Thamud, they were
destroyed by the awful cry! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 6. |
And as for 'Ad, they were destroyed
by a furious violent wind; |
|
|
|
|
|
| 7. |
Which Allah imposed on them
for seven nights and eight days in succession, so that you could see
men lying overthrown (destroyed),
as if they were hollow trunks of date-palms! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 8. |
Do you see any remnants of them? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 9. |
And Fir'awn (Pharaoh),
and those before him, and the cities overthrown the towns of the people
of [Lut (Lot)] committed sin, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 10. |
And they disobeyed their Lord's Messenger,
so He punished them with a strong punishment. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 11. |
Verily! When the water rose beyond
its limits [Nuh's (Noah)
Flood], We carried you (mankind) in the floating [ship that was
constructed by Nuh (Noah)]. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 12. |
That We might make it (Noah's ship) an admonition for you, and that it might be retained
by the retaining ears. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 13. |
Then when the Trumpet will be blown
with one blowing (the first
one), |
|
|
|
|
|
| 14. |
And the earth and the mountains shall
be removed from their places, and crushed with a single crushing, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 15. |
Then on that Day shall the (Great) Event befall, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 16. |
And the heaven will be rent asunder,
for that Day it (the) heaven will be frail and torn
up. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 17. |
And the angels will be on its sides,
and eight angels will, that Day, bear the Throne of your Lord above
them. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 18. |
That Day shall you be brought to Judgment,
not a secret of you will be hidden. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 19. |
Then as for him who will be given his
Record in his right hand will say: "Here! read my Record! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 20. |
"Surely, I did believe that I
shall meet my Account!" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 21. |
So he shall be in a life, well-pleasing. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 22. |
In a lofty Paradise, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 23. |
The fruits in bunches whereof will
be low and near at hand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 24. |
Eat and drink at ease for that which
you have sent on before you in days past! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 25. |
But as for him who will be given his
Record in his left hand, will say: "I wish that I had not been
given my Record! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 26. |
"And that I had never known, how
my Account is? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 27. |
"Would that it had been my end (death)! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 28. |
"My wealth has not availed me; |
|
|
|
|
|
| 29. |
"My power and arguments (to defend myself) have gone from me!" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 30. |
(It will be said):
"Seize him and fetter him, |
|
