56:1
When the Inevitable (the Day of Resurrection) arrives
56:2
no one will deny its happening,
56:4
The earth will be rocked with a jolt
56:5
and the mountains crumble to pieces
56:6
and become dust that is scattered about.
56:7
You will form three groups:
56:8
the Companions on the Right (What do the Companions on the Right [mean]?);
56:9
the Companions on the Left (What do the Companions on the Unlucky side [mean]?);
56:10
and the Pioneers will be out there leading!
56:11
Those will be the nearest
56:12
in gardens of bliss,
56:13
a multitude from early men
56:14
and a few from later ones
56:15
on couches set close together,
56:16
leaning back on them, facing one another.
56:17
Immortal youths will stroll around them
56:18
with glasses, pitchers, and a cup from a fountain
56:19
which will not upset them nor dull their senses;
56:20
and any fruit that they may choose,
56:21
and the meat from any fowl they may desire;
56:22
and bright-eyed damsels [chaste]
56:23
just like treasured pearls,
56:24
as a reward for what they have been doing.
56:25
They will not hear any idle talk there nor any fault-finding,
56:26
merely people saying: "Peace! Peace!"
56:27
The Companions on the Right- how [fortunate] the Companions on the Right!
56:28
[They will be] among lote trees trimmed of their thorns,
56:29
and bananas piled bunch on bunch,
56:30
with their shade spread out,
56:31
water pouring forth,
56:32
and plenty of fruit
56:33
which is neither rationed nor forbidden,
56:34
and padded furniture raised [off the floor]. The Inevitable Part 27 535
56:35
We have produced special women
56:36
and made them (ever) virgins,
56:37
easy to get along with and of their same age,
56:38
for the Companions on the Right,
56:39
a multitude from early men
56:40
as well as a multitude from later ones. (II)
56:41
The Companions on the Unlucky side, how [misfortunate] the Companions on the Left!
56:42
In a scorching wind, scalding water,
56:43
and the shade of pitch-black smoke,
56:44
which is neither cool nor refreshing.
56:45
They had been luxuriating before that happened
56:46
and persisted in awesome blasphemy,
56:47
and kept on saying: 'When we have died and become dust and bones, will we be raised up again?
56:48
Along with our earliest forefathers?"
56:49
SAY: "The earlier and the later ones
56:50
will be gathered together for an appointment on a well-known day.
56:51
Then you mistaken rejectors
56:52
will be eating something from the Infernal Tree,
56:53
filling (your) bellies with it
56:54
and drinking scalding water in addition,
56:55
lapping it up, the way thirsty [camels] drink."
56:56
Such will be their fare on the Day for Repayment!
56:57
We created you, if you would only acknowledge it.
56:58
Have you ever considered what you emit [of semen]?
56:59
Did you create it, or are We its Creators?
56:60
We have ordained death for (all of) you; no one will get ahead to prevent Us
56:61
from changing your attributes, and transforming you into something you would never recognize.
56:62
You know about the first creation, if you will only recall it.
56:63
Have you considered what you plant as crops?
56:64
Do you farm it or are We the Farmers?
56:65
If We so wished, We would turn it into chaff so you would do nothing but exclaim:
56:66
"We are debt-ridden;
56:67
in fact, we are destitute!"
56:68
Have you ever considered the water you drink?
56:69
Do you pour down from the
56:70
If We so wished, We might make it brackish. If you would only act grateful!
56:71
Have you considered the Fire you kindle?
56:72
Are you the ones who grow its trees [for firewood] or are We their Growers?
56:73
We have granted it as a Reminder and enjoyment for those living in the wilderness. [or travel]
56:74
So celebrate your Lord's almighty name!
56:75
Yet I swear by the stars' positions
56:76
(it is a serious oath, if you only knew it!)
56:77
that it is a Noble Quran
56:78
[kept] as a treasured Book
56:79
which none but the purified may touch,
56:80
something sent down by the Lord of the Universe.
56:81
Are you (all) trying to dodge this report?
56:82
You reject it in return of [Allah’s(God’s)] giving you means of livelihood!
56:83
Why [you can] not [do anything] -when [your soul] leaps to your throat [at death]
56:84
and you are then observing,
56:85
(We are even Nearer to it than you are, even though you do not notice it)-
56:86
provided you are not under any obligation,
56:87
return [the soul] back if you are truthful...!
56:88
Thus if he is one of those who are drawn close [to Allah(God)]
56:89
[he will have] contentment, fragrance, and a garden of bliss-
56:90
while if he is one of the Companions on the Right:
56:91
"Peace be on you" [will be the greeting) from the Companions on the Right.
56:92
However if he is one of the mistaken rejectors
56:93
a welcome of scalding water
56:94
plus a roasting in Hades [will await him].
56:95
This is the absolute Truth;
56:96
So celebrate our Lord's almighty name!
