88:1
Has the story of the Pall ever reached you?
88:2
Some faces will be downcast on that day,
88:4
They will roast in a scorching fire;
88:5
offered a boiling spring to drink from,
88:6
they will have no food except some cactus
88:7
which will neither fatten (them) nor satisfy their hunger.
88:8
Other faces will be blissful on that day,
88:9
pleased with their effort,
88:10
(dwelling) in a lofty garden.
88:11
No loose talk will be heard in it.
88:12
There will be a flowing spring there;
88:13
by it couches will be raised up,
88:14
glasses set in place,
88:16
and carpets spread around.
88:17
Do they not consider how camels have been created?
88:18
Nor how the sky has been lifted up?
88:19
Nor how the mountains have been erected?
88:20
Nor even how the earth has been flattened out?
88:21
So remind: you need only to remind!
88:22
You are no taskmaster set up over them,
88:23
except for someone who turns away and disbelieves;
88:24
God will punish him with the worst torment.
88:25
Toward Us lies their retreat;
88:26
then their reckoning will fall on Us.
