1. One demanding, demanded the chastisement which must befall | |
2. The unbelievers-- there is none to avert it-- | |
3. From Allah, the Lord of the ways of Ascent. | |
4. To Him ascend the angels and the Spirit in a day the measure of which is fifty thousand years. | |
5. Therefore endure with a goodly patience. | |
6. Surely they think it to be far off, | |
7. And We see it nigh. | |
8. On the day when the heaven shall be as molten copper | |
9. And the mountains shall be as tufts of wool | |
10. And friend shall not ask of friend | |
11. (Though) they shall be made to see each other. The guilty one would fain redeem himself from the chastisement of that day by (sacrificing) his children, | |
12. And his wife and his brother | |
13. And the nearest of his kinsfolk who gave him shelter, | |
14. And all those that are in the earth, (wishing) then (that) this might deliver him. | |
15. By no means! Surely it is a flaming fire | |
16. Dragging by the head, | |
17. It shall claim him who turned and fled (from truth), | |
18. And amasses (wealth) then shuts it up. | |
19. Surely man is created of a hasty temperament | |
20. Being greatly grieved when evil afflicts him | |
21. And niggardly when good befalls him | |
22. Except those who pray, | |
23. Those who are constant at their prayer | |
24. And those in whose wealth there is a fixed portion. | |
25. For him who begs and for him who is denied (good) | |
26. And those who accept the truth of the judgment day | |
27. And those who are fearful of the chastisement of their Lord-- | |
28. Surely the chastisement of their Lord is (a thing) not to be felt secure of-- | |
29. And those who guard their private parts, | |
30. Except in the case of their wives or those whom their right hands possess-- for these surely are not to be blamed, | |
31. But he who seeks to go beyond this, these it is that go beyond the limits-- | |
32. And those who are faithful to their trusts and their covenant | |
33. And those who are upright in their testimonies, | |
34. And those who keep a guard on their prayer, | |
35. Those shall be in gardens, honored. | |
36. But what is the matter with those who disbelieve that they hasten on around you, | |
37. On the right hand and on the left, in sundry parties? | |
38. Does every man of them desire that he should be made to enter the garden of bliss? | |
39. By no means! Surely We have created them of what they know. | |
40. But nay! I swear by the Lord of the Easts and the Wests that We are certainly able | |
41. To bring instead (others) better than them, and We shall not be overcome. | |
42. Therefore leave them alone to go on with the false discourses and to sport until they come face to face with that day of theirs with which they are threatened; | |
43. The day on which they shall come forth from their graves in haste, as if they were hastening on to a goal, | |
44. Their eyes cast down; disgrace shall overtake them; that is the day which they were threatened with. |
