--- |
|---|
| 70:1 | | (An) asker/questioner asked/questioned with (about) a falling/landing torture |
| 70:2 | | To the disbelievers (there) is not for it (a) repeller/pusher |
| 70:3 | | From God, (owner) of the methods of ascent |
| 70:4 | | The angels and the Soul/Spirit ascend/climb to Him in a day/time its value/estimation/ measure was/is fifty thousand years |
| 70:5 | | So be patient, beautiful/graceful patience |
| 70:6 | | That they truly, they see/understand it a distant/far |
| 70:7 | | And We see/understand it near/close |
| 70:8 | | A day/time the sky/space becomes as the dead's puss/melted metal |
| 70:9 | | And the mountains become like the wool/dyed wool |
| 70:10 | | And nor (a) concerned (relative/friend) asks/questions (about a) concerned (relative/friend) |
| 70:11 | | They make them see/understand; the criminal/sinner wishes/loves if he ransoms/compensates (sacrifices) with his sons from that day's torture (to save himself) |
| 70:12 | | And his wife/companion/friend and his brother |
| 70:13 | | And his closest tribe/relations which shelters him/gives him refuge |
| 70:14 | | And whom (is) in the earth/Planet Earth all/all together, then (He) saves/rescues him |
| 70:15 | | No, but that it is blazing/flaming |
| 70:16 | | Pulling away/removing to the extremities/outer layer of skin |
| 70:17 | | It calls who gave his back and turned away |
| 70:18 | | And gathered/collected , so he comprehended/accepted |
| 70:19 | | That truly the human/mankind was created worrisome/frightened |
| 70:20 | | If the bad/evil/harm touched him, (he is) worrying/grievous and impatient |
| 70:21 | | And if the goodness touched him, (he is) often preventing/prohibiting |
| 70:22 | | Except the praying |
| 70:23 | | Those who (are) on their prayers continuing/lasting |
| 70:24 | | And those who in their properties/possessions (is) a known right/share |
| 70:25 | | For the asker/beggar and the deprived |
| 70:26 | | And those who believe/confirm with the Judgment Day/Resurrection Day |
| 70:27 | | And those whom they are from their Lord's torture, are afraid/guarding/cautious |
| 70:28 | | That truly their Lord's torture (is) not trusted/safe |
| 70:29 | | And those who to their genital parts (they are) protecting/guarding |
| 70:30 | | Except on (for) their spouses and what their rights owned/possessed (i.e.: care-givers of the sick, elderly and disabled under contract), so then they are not blameworthy/blamed |
| 70:31 | | So who desired/wished beyond that, so those, they are the transgressors/violators |
| 70:32 | | And those who, to their deposits/securities and their promise/contracts , (they are) protecting/observing |
| 70:33 | | And those who, they are with their testimonies (they are) taking care of |
| 70:34 | | And those who, they are on their prayers (they are) protecting/observing |
| 70:35 | | Those are in treed gardens/paradises honoured |
| 70:36 | | So why (is it) those who disbelieved (are) coming, rushing in fear towards/in front of you |
| 70:37 | | Groups of people/relations from the right (side), and from the left (side) |
| 70:38 | | Does every/each human from them wish/covet that (E) he enters a treed garden/paradise (of) comfort and ease |
| 70:39 | | No but that We created them from what they know |
| 70:40 | | So I do not swear/make oath with the sun rises'/easts' , and the sunsets'/wests' Lord, that We are capable/able (E) |
| 70:41 | | On that (E) We exchange/replace better than them, and We are not with being raced/preceded |
| 70:42 | | So leave them plunge into/engage in conversation and play/amuse until they meet/find their day/time which they are being promised |
| 70:43 | | A day/time they appear/emerge from the graves quickening/rushing as if they are to monuments/slaughter places running/hurrying |
| 70:44 | | Their eyesights/understanding (are) humble/submissive , humiliation/disgrace burdens/depresses them ,that (is) the day/time which they were being promised |
