79. An-Naziat - Those Who Pull Out
1 | By oath of those who harshly pull out the soul. (Of the disbeliever) |
2 | And who softly release the soul. (Of the believer) |
3 | And who glide with ease. |
4 | And who quickly present themselves. |
5 | And who plan the implementation. |
6 | On the day when the trembling one will tremble. (The disbelievers will certainly taste the punishment.) |
7 | And the following event will come after it. |
8 | Many a heart will flutter on that day! |
9 | Unable to lift their gaze. |
10 | The disbelievers say, “Will we really return to our former state?” |
11 | “When we have become decayed bones?” |
12 | They said, “So this return is an obvious loss!” |
13 | So that is not but a single shout. |
14 | So they will immediately be in an open plain. |
15 | Did the news of Moosa reach you? |
16 | When his Lord called him in the holy valley of Tuwa. |
17 | That “Go to Firaun – he has rebelled.” |
18 | “Tell him ‘Do you have the inclination to become pure?’ |
19 | ‘And I may guide you to your Lord, so that you may fear.’” |
20 | So Moosa showed him a magnificent sign. |
21 | In response, he denied and disobeyed. |
22 | He then turned away, striving in his effort. |
23 | So he gathered the people, and proclaimed. |
24 | And then said, “I am your most supreme lord.” |
25 | Allah therefore seized him, in the punishment of this world and the Hereafter. |
26 | Indeed in this is a lesson for one who fears. |
27 | Do you think that it is harder to create you or the heavens? Allah has created it. |
28 | He raised its roof and made it proper. |
29 | And He made its night dark, and started its light. |
30 | And after it spread out the earth. |
31 | And from it produced its water and its pasture. |
32 | And solidified the mountains. |
33 | In order to benefit you and your cattle. |
34 | So when the greatest universal disaster arrives, |
35 | On that day man will recall all what he strove for. |
36 | And hell will be made visible to all those who can see. |
37 | So for one who rebelled, |
38 | And preferred the worldly life, |
39 | Then indeed hell only is his destination. |
40 | And for one who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from desire, |
41 | Then indeed Paradise only is his destination. |
42 | They (the disbelievers) ask you regarding the Last Day, as to when is its appointed time. |
43 | What concern do you have regarding its explanation? (You are not bound to tell them) |
44 | Towards your Lord only is its conclusion. |
45 | You are but a Herald of Warning, for one who fears it. |
46 | The day when they will see it, it will seem as if they had not stayed on earth except for an evening or its morning. |
