| 78:1 | | About what are they asking (one another)? |
| 78:2 | | About the great news (Islam), |
| 78:3 | | about which they disagree. |
| 78:4 | | Nay, they will come to know, |
| 78:5 | | nay, again, they will come to know (very soon). |
| 78:6 | | Have not We made the earth like a bed, |
| 78:7 | | the mountains as pegs, |
| 78:8 | | created you in pairs, |
| 78:9 | | made your sleep for rest, |
| 78:10 | | made the night as a covering, |
| 78:11 | | made the day (to work) for livelihood, |
| 78:12 | | built above you 7 strong (heavens), |
| 78:13 | | placed in it a shinning lamp (sun), |
| 78:14 | | sent down abundant water from the clouds, |
| 78:15 | | thereby to produce corn and vegetation in it, |
| 78:16 | | and gardens of thick growth? |
| 78:17 | | Surely, the Day of decision is a fixed time. |
| 78:18 | | On that Day, the trumpet will be blown in and you shall come forth in crowds. |
| 78:19 | | The sky will be opened, as if there were doors. |
| 78:20 | | The mountains will be moved away, as if they were a mirage. |
| 78:21 | | Truly, hell is a place of ambush, |
| 78:22 | | a living place for the transgressors. |
| 78:23 | | They will live in it for ages, |
| 78:24 | | they will neither taste cool nor any drink in it, |
| 78:25 | | except boiling water and pus (dirty wound discharges): |
| 78:26 | | as a fitting recompense (for their evil deeds). |
| 78:27 | | Surely, they never expected a reckoning (for their deeds), |
| 78:28 | | and denied Our revelations with strong denial. |
| 78:29 | | But We have recorded every thing in a book. |
| 78:30 | | (It will be said): “So you taste (the results of evil actions). We shall give you nothing but increase in punishment.” |
| 78:31 | | Surely, there will be a success (Paradise) for the righteous: |
| 78:32 | | gardens and grape yards, |
| 78:33 | | young mature maidens of equal age, |
| 78:34 | | full cups (of wine to the brim); |
| 78:35 | | they will neither hear vain talk nor any lying in it; |
| 78:36 | | a reward from your Lord and a gift beyond their account (for good deeds |
| 78:37 | | from the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatever is between them; the Gracious, before Whom no one will be able to speak (on the Day of Resurrection). |
| 78:38 | | On that Day, the spirit (Gabriel) and the angels will stand in rows; none will speak except the one to whom the Gracious (Allah) will allow to speak, and he will speak what is right. |
| 78:39 | | That is (without doubt) the true Day. Let those who wish, seek a Way back to their Lord (by obeying Him in this world). |
| 78:40 | | Surely, We have warned you of an imminent punishment, on the Day when people will see (the deeds) what their hands have sent forth, and the disbeliever will cry: “Woe to me! Would that I were dust!” |
