|
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit);
|
77:2 |
|
Which then blow violently in tempestuous Gusts,
|
77:3 |
|
And scatter (things) far and wide;
|
77:4 |
|
Then separate them, one from another,
|
77:5 |
|
Then spread abroad a Message,
|
77:6 |
|
Whether of Justification or of Warning;-
|
77:7 |
|
Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass.
|
77:8 |
|
Then when the stars become dim;
|
77:9 |
|
When the heaven is cleft asunder;
|
77:10 |
|
When the mountains are scattered (to the winds) as dust;
|
77:11 |
|
And when the apostles are (all) appointed a time (to collect);-
|
77:12 |
|
For what Day are these (portents) deferred?
|
77:13 |
|
For the Day of Sorting out.
|
77:14 |
|
And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out?
|
77:15 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:16 |
|
Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)?
|
77:17 |
|
So shall We make later (generations) follow them.
|
77:18 |
|
Thus do We deal with men of sin.
|
77:19 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:20 |
|
Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?-
|
77:21 |
|
The which We placed in a place of rest, firmly fixed,
|
77:22 |
|
For a period (of gestation), determined (according to need)?
|
77:23 |
|
For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things).
|
77:24 |
|
Ah woe, that Day! to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:25 |
|
Have We not made the earth (as a place) to draw together.
|
77:26 |
|
The living and the dead,
|
77:27 |
|
And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)?
|
77:28 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:29 |
|
(It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false!
|
77:30 |
|
"Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns,
|
77:31 |
|
"(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze.
|
77:32 |
|
"Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts,
|
77:33 |
|
"As if there were (a string of) yellow camels (marching swiftly)."
|
77:34 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:35 |
|
That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak.
|
77:36 |
|
Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas.
|
77:37 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:38 |
|
That will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)!
|
77:39 |
|
Now, if ye have a trick (or plot), use it against Me!
|
77:40 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:41 |
|
As to the Righteous, they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water).
|
77:42 |
|
And (they shall have) fruits,- all they desire.
|
77:43 |
|
"Eat ye and drink ye to your heart's content: for that ye worked (Righteousness).
|
77:44 |
|
Thus do We certainly reward the Doers of Good.
|
77:45 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:46 |
|
(O ye unjust!) Eat ye and enjoy yourselves (but) a little while, for that ye are Sinners.
|
77:47 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:48 |
|
And when it is said to them, "Prostrate yourselves!" they do not so.
|
77:49 |
|
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
|
77:50 |
|
Then what Message, after that, will they believe in?
