The Qur'an
(Koran) - M. H. Shakir |
|
|
In the name of Allah,
the Beneficent, the Merciful.
[79.1] I swear
by the angels who violently pull out
the souls of the wicked,
[79.2] And by those who
gently draw out the souls of the
blessed,
[79.3] And by those who float
in space,
[79.4] Then those who are
foremost going ahead,
[79.5] Then those who
regulate the affair.
[79.6] The day on which the
quaking one shall quake,
[79.7] What must happen
afterwards shall follow it.
[79.8] Hearts on that day
shall palpitate,
[79.9] Their eyes cast down.
[79.10] They say: Shall we
indeed be restored to (our) first
state?
[79.11] What! when we are
rotten bones?
[79.12] They said: That then
would be a return occasioning loss.
[79.13] But it shall be only
a single cry,
[79.14] When lo! they shall
be wakeful.
[79.15] Has not there come to
you the story of Musa?
[79.16] When his Lord called
upon him in the holy valley, twice,
[79.17] Go to Firon, surely
he has become inordinate.
[79.18] Then say: Have you (a
desire) to purify yourself:
[79.19] And I will guide you
to your Lord so that you should
fear.
[79.20] So he showed him the
mighty sign.
[79.21] But he rejected (the
truth) and disobeyed.
[79.22] Then he went back
hastily.
[79.23] Then he gathered
(men) and called out.
[79.24] Then he said: I am
your lord, the most high.
[79.25] So Allah seized him
with the punishment of the hereafter
and the former life.
[79.26] Most surely there is
in this a lesson to him who fears.
[79.27] Are you the harder to
create or the heaven? He made it.
[79.28] He raised high its
height, then put it into a right
good state.
[79.29] And He made dark its
night and brought out its light.
[79.30] And the earth, He
expanded it after that.
[79.31] He brought forth from
it its water and its pasturage.
[79.32] And the mountains, He
made them firm,
[79.33] A provision for you
and for your cattle.
[79.34] But when the great
predominating calamity comes;
[79.35] The day on which man
shall recollect what he strove
after,
[79.36] And the hell shall be
made manifest to him who sees
[79.37] Then as for him who
is inordinate,
[79.38] And prefers the life
of this world,
[79.39] Then surely the hell,
that is the abode.
[79.40] And as for him who
fears to stand in the presence of
his Lord and forbids the soul from
low desires,
[79.41] Then surely the
garden-- that is the abode.
[79.42] They ask you about
the hour, when it will come.
[79.43] About what! You are
one to remind of it.
[79.44] To your Lord is the
goal of it.
[79.45] You are only a warner
to him who would fear it.
[79.46] On the day that they
see it, it will be as though they
had not tarried but the latter part
of a day or the early part of it. |
