70:1
A questioner asked concerning an imminent chastisement
70:2
For those who lack faith in Allâh, which none can avert,
70:3
From Allâh, the Lord of the Ascending Stairways.
70:4
The ‘Angels’ and the Spirit (Archangel ‘Gabriel’) ascend to Him in a day whereof the measure of which is fifty thousand years.
70:5
Therefore, resort to patience and constancy, (O' Muhammad), with an amiable patience.
70:6
Indeed, they see that (‘Day’) as a far-off (event).
70:7
While We see it very near.
70:8
The day will come when the heavens become like molten copper
70:9
And the mountains like flakes of wool.
70:10
And no friend would care about his close friend
70:11
Though they are made to see each other. The ungodly sinner wishes he would be able to ransom himself from the chastisement of that day by (sacrificing) his children,
70:12
His wife, his brother,
70:13
And his kinsfolk who sheltered him,
70:14
Even all the people on earth, if that would save him.
70:15
But nay! Indeed, it is a Flaming Fire,
70:16
Extremely eager for burning.
70:17
It will claim the one who takes in his self-deceived beliefs for the epistemic,
70:18
Hoarded wealth and withheld it.
70:19
Verily, man was created restless,
70:20
Extremely anxious when he is touched by evil,
70:21
Niggardly when he is touched by richness;
70:22
Except for those who pray (to Allâh),
70:23
And who are persistent in performing their prayer,
70:24
And in whose wealth, there is a known right
70:25
For the beggar and the needy,
70:26
And those who acknowledge (the existence of) the ‘Day of Judgment’,
70:28
Indeed, the chastisement of their Lord is a thing not to be ignored-
70:29
And those who guard their chastity,
70:30
Except from their wives and those whom their right hands possess, in such a case they are not blameworthy,
70:31
But whoever goes beyond this is a transgressor;
70:32
And those who are faithful to their trusts and their covenant,
70:33
Those who act uprightly in their testimonies,
70:34
And those who always maintain their prayer.
70:35
These will settle in Gardens, honored.
70:36
But what is the matter with those who lack faith in Allâh that they rush madly before you
70:37
From the right and from the left, in crowds?
70:38
Does every one of them hope to enter the Paradise of Bliss?
70:39
Nay, indeed, We have created them out of what they know.
70:40
But nay! I swear by the Lord of the eastern and western regions that We are certainly able
70:41
To replace them by others better than them. We are not to be outrun.
70:42
Therefore, leave them alone to converse vainly and amuse themselves until they meet their day which they are promised.
70:43
The day will come when they come out of the graves in haste as though they were racing to a goal
70:44
With their eyes lowered in fear and humility, while humiliation covering them. Such is the day which they are promised.
