The Qur'an
(Koran) - M. H. Shakir |
|
|
| Surah 75
- The Resurrection |
In the name of Allah,
the Beneficent, the Merciful.
[75.1] Nay! I
swear by the day of resurrection.
[75.2] Nay! I swear by the
self-accusing soul.
[75.3] Does man think that We
shall not gather his bones?
[75.4] Yea! We are able to
make complete his very fingertips
[75.5] Nay! man desires to
give the lie to what is before him.
[75.6] He asks: When is the
day of resurrection?
[75.7] So when the sight
becomes dazed,
[75.8] And the moon becomes
dark,
[75.9] And the sun and the
moon are brought together,
[75.10] Man shall say on that
day: Whither to fly to?
[75.11] By no means! there
shall be no place of refuge!
[75.12] With your Lord alone
shall on that day be the place of
rest.
[75.13] Man shall on that day
be informed of what he sent before
and (what he) put off.
[75.14] Nay! man is evidence
against himself,
[75.15] Though he puts forth
his excuses.
[75.16] Do not move your
tongue with it to make haste with
it,
[75.17] : Surely on Us
(devolves) the collecting of it and
the reciting of it.
[75.18] Therefore when We
have recited it, follow its
recitation.
[75.19] Again on Us
(devolves) the explaining of it.
[75.20] Nay! But you love the
present life,
[75.21] And neglect the
hereafter.
[75.22] (Some) faces on that
day shall be bright,
[75.23] Looking to their
Lord.
[75.24] And (other) faces on
that day shall be gloomy,
[75.25] Knowing that there
will be made to befall them some
great calamity.
[75.26] Nay! When it comes up
to the throat,
[75.27] And it is said: Who
will be a magician?
[75.28] And he is sure that
it is the (hour of) parting
[75.29] And affliction is
combined with affliction;
[75.30] To your Lord on that
day shall be the driving.
[75.31] So he did not accept
the truth, nor did he pray,
[75.32] But called the truth
a lie and turned back,
[75.33] Then he went to his
followers, walking away in
haughtiness.
[75.34] Nearer to you (is
destruction) and nearer,
[75.35] Again (consider how)
nearer to you and nearer.
[75.36] Does man think that
he is to be left to wander without
an aim?
[75.37] Was he not a small
seed in the seminal elements,
[75.38] Then he was a clot of
blood, so He created (him) then made
(him) perfect.
[75.39] Then He made of him
two kinds, the male and the female.
[75.40] Is not He able to
give life to the dead? |
