- 78:1
- what now are they asking about
- 78:2
- is it the great news of resurrection
- 78:3
- the subject of dispute between those who argue in favour and those who argue against it
- 78:4
- No, but they shall soon come to know
- 78:5
- No, but indeed they shall soon come to know. Then Allah reminds them by drawing their attention to His omnipotence; He says
- 78:6
- Did We not prepare the earth to be a settled habitation
- 78:7
- and the mountains as stays that afford stabilization!
- 78:8
- We created you in pairs
- 78:9
- We made your sleep* a repose for relief and recuperation
- 78:10
- and the night a vestment and black was the colour chosen to absorb all light emanating from the cosmic sources of illumination
- 78:11
- We made the day-time luminous for activity and livelihood
- 78:12
- We built above you seven fortitudinous heavens vast and with endless amplitude.
- 78:13
- We installed a lamp glowing dispensing heat and illumination.
- 78:14
- We sent down from the rainy clouds water affluent and at times involving succession
- 78:15
- To bring forth therewith grains and vegetation
- 78:16
- and thickly foliaged orchards and gardens of delightful variation
- 78:17
- Indeed the Day of Judgment foreordained falls at an absolute time Predestinated
- 78:18
- This is the Day the trumpet is sounded and you come together in throngs embodying your souls and fully actuated
- 78:19
- and the heaven is opened typifying open doors for the adminission of all
- 78:20
- and the mountains are set in motion and into a mirage as if transmigrated
- 78:21
- There and then hell is made to lie in wait
- 78:22
- It is the destined abode of the transgressors wherein they are designated
- 78:23
- Therein, they remain for ages as has been predestinated
- 78:24
- They will taste no coolness for relief nor a drink to quench their thirst
- 78:25
- But only boiling water and their rotten discharges for doing their worst
- 78:26
- A requital commensurate with deeds
- 78:27
- They never believed they would be judged
- 78:28
- and Our revelations and signs they charged with falsehood and insolently did they negate
- 78:29
- But everything We kept on record and in a book did We incorporate
- 78:30
- Now taste the outcome of your deeds and plenty of the same will We increase and perpetuate
- 78:31
- But for the righteous there is victory in the attainment of their goal
- 78:32
- Orchards and vineyards
- 78:33
- Companions of like age featuring highest quality of attractive femininity
- 78:34
- and a cup full of delightful drink, clear, pure and really good
- 78:35
- No vanities shall they hear therein nor is it the place for falsehood, or discord
- 78:36
- A recompense from Allah, your Creator and a reward greatly in accord
- 78:37
- Creator of the heavens and the earth and all in between. AL- Rahman, with whom no one can hold discourse nor shall an argument be allowed to intervene
- 78:38
- This is the day when the spirit Jibril (Gabriel) and the angels stand in lines and keep silence at its height, except he whom AL-Rahman permits and then he says what is right
- 78:39
- Indeed this is the day of truth, and who so desires may still turn to Allah, his Creator, for tutelary protection
- 78:40
- We have warned you of punishment evident and quite near that deserves attention. On the day it comes to pass shall every one look at his deeds, the lawful and the lawless which his wrongful and unclean hands had committed. The infidel shall wish, then, he had remained mere dust
