|---|
| 78:1 | | Of what ask they |
| 78:2 | | Of the mighty Announcement |
| 78:3 | | Concerning which they differ |
| 78:4 | | By no means! anon they shall know |
| 78:5 | | Again, by no means! anon they shall know |
| 78:6 | | Have We not made the earth an expanse |
| 78:7 | | And the mountains as stakes |
| 78:8 | | And We have created you in pairs |
| 78:9 | | And We have made your sleep as a rest |
| 78:10 | | And We have made the night a covering |
| 78:11 | | And We have made the day for seeking livelihood |
| 78:12 | | And We have builded over you seven strong heavens |
| 78:13 | | And We have set therein lamps glowing |
| 78:14 | | And We have sent down from the rain-clouds water plenteous |
| 78:15 | | So that We bring forth thereby corn and vegetation |
| 78:16 | | And gardens thick with trees |
| 78:17 | | Verily the Day of Decision is a time appointed |
| 78:18 | | It is a Day whereon the trumpet will be blown, and ye will come in multitudes |
| 78:19 | | And the heaven will have been opened, and it will have become doors |
| 78:20 | | And the mountains will have been removed away, and they will have become as mirage |
| 78:21 | | Verily the Hell is an ambuscade |
| 78:22 | | For the exorbitant a receptacle |
| 78:23 | | They will tarry therein for ages |
| 78:24 | | They will not taste therein cool or any drink |
| 78:25 | | Save scalding water and corruption |
| 78:26 | | Recompense fitted |
| 78:27 | | Verily they were wont not to look for a reckoning |
| 78:28 | | And they belied Our revelations with strong belying |
| 78:29 | | And everything We have recorded in a book |
| 78:30 | | Taste therefore. We shall not increase you in aught but torment |
| 78:31 | | Verily for the God-fearing is an achievement |
| 78:32 | | Gardens enclosed and vineyards |
| 78:33 | | And full-breasted maidens of equal age |
| 78:34 | | And a cup overflowing |
| 78:35 | | They will hear therein no babble nor falsehood |
| 78:36 | | A recompense from thy Lord-a gift sufficient |
| 78:37 | | From the Lord of the heavens and the earth and of whatsoever is in bet-ween them, the Compassionate with Whom they can demand not audience |
| 78:38 | | On the Day whereon the spirits and the angels will stand arrayed, they will not be able to speak save him whom the Compassionate giveth leave and who speaketh aright |
| 78:39 | | That is the Sure Day. Whosoever therefore willeth, let him betake Unto his Lord a resort |
| 78:40 | | Verily We! We have warned you of a torment nigh at hand, a Day whereon a man shall behold that which his hands have sent forth, and the infidel will say: would that I were dust |
