78:1  What are they asking one another about?

78:2  It is about the great news

78:3  about which they differ.

78:4  But no! They will come to know.

78:5  Again, no indeed! They will come to know.

78:6  Did We not make the earth a resting place,

78:7  and the mountains as pegs?

78:8  And We created you in pairs?

78:9  And We made your sleep for rest,

78:10  and rendered the night a covering,

78:11  and made the day for livelihood?

78:12  And We built above you seven mighty ones,

78:13  and made a blazing lamp?

78:14  And We brought down pouring water from rain clouds

78:15  to produce with it grains and plants,

78:16  and gardens of entwined growth?

78:17  The Day of Decision is an appointed time.

78:18  The Day the horn is blown, you will come in multitudes.

78:19  The heaven was opened and became gateways.

78:20  And the mountains were moved and became mirages.

78:21  Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait

78:22  for the transgressors as a homecoming.

78:23  They shall remain therein for ages.

78:24  They do not taste therein any coolness nor any drink,

78:25  but only boiling water and a filthy pus

78:26  as a fitting penalty.

78:27  They did not expect to be held accountable,

78:28  and they vehemently denied Our revelations.

78:29  We have kept count of everything in a Record.

78:30  So taste, for We will increase you in nothing other than punishment.

78:31  For the reverent, there is triumph:

78:32  gardens and grapevines,

78:33  and nubile companions of same-age,

78:34  and a cup that is full.

78:35  They do not hear in it any idle talk nor lies.

78:36  It is a reward from your Lord, a commensurate donation.

78:37  Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is in between them, the Almighty; they have no authority to speak before Him.

78:38  On the Day the Ruh and the angels will stand in a row, none will speak except the one permitted by the Almighty and says what is right.

78:39  That is the True Day, so whoever wills shall seek a return to his Lord.

78:40  Indeed, We have warned you of an imminent punishment on the Day when man will look at what his hands have put forth, and the disbeliever will say, "I wish I were dust.
