7 And you (all) will be in three groups.

7 And ye will be three kinds:

8 So those on the Right Hand (i.e. those who will be given their Records in their right hands) - how (fortunate) will be those on the Right Hand! (As a respect for them, because they will enter Paradise).

8 (First) those on the right hand; what of those on the right hand ?

9 And those on the Left Hand (i.e. those who will be given their Record in their left hands) - how (unfortunate) will be those on the Left Hand! (As a disgrace for them, because they will enter Hell).

9 And (then) those on the left hand; what of those on the left hand ?

10 And those foremost [(in Islamic Faith of Monotheism and in performing righteous deeds) in the life of this world on the very first call for to embrace Islam] will be foremost (in Paradise).

10 And the foremost in the race, the foremost in the race:

11 These will be the nearest (to Allah).

24 A reward for what they used to do.

25 No Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk) will they hear therein, nor any sinful speech (like backbiting).

25 There hear they no vain speaking nor recrimination

35 Lo! We have created them a (new) creation

36 And made them virgins.

37 Loving (their husbands only), (and) of equal age.

42 In scorching wind and scalding water

43 And shadow of black smoke,

43 And shadow of black smoke,

44 (That shadow) neither cool, nor (even) pleasant,

44 Neither cool nor refreshing.

45 Verily, before that, they indulged in luxury,

45 Lo! heretofore they were effete with luxury

46 And were persisting in great sin (joining partners in worship along with Allah, committing murder and other crimes)

46 And used to persist in the awful sin.

47 And they used to say: "When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be resurrected?

47 And they used to say: When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised again,

48 "And also our forefathers?"

48 And also our forefathers ?

49 Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "(Yes) verily, those of old, and those of later times.

49 Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Lo! those of old and those of later time

50 "All will surely be gathered together for appointed Meeting of a known Day.

50 Will all be brought together to the tryst of an appointed day.

51 "Then moreover, verily you the erring-ones, the deniers (of Resurrection)!

51 Then lo! ye, the erring, the deniers,

52 "You verily will eat of the trees of Zaqqum.

52 Ye verily will eat of a tree called Zaqqum

53 "Then you will fill your bellies therewith,

53 And will fill your bellies therewith;

54 "And drink boiling water on top of it.

54 And thereon ye will drink of boiling water,

55 "And you will drink (that) like thirsty camels!"

55 Drinking even as the camel drinketh.

56 That will be their entertainment on the Day of Recompense!

56 This will be their welcome on the Day of Judgment.

57 We created you: then why do you believe not?

57 We created you. Will ye then admit the truth ?

58 Then tell Me (about) the (human) semen that you emit.

58 Have ye seen that which ye emit ?

59 Is it you who create it (i.e. make this semen into a perfect human being), or are We the Creator?

59 Do ye create it or are We the Creator ?

60 We have decreed death to you all, and We are not outstripped,

60 We mete out death among you, and We are not to be outrun,

61 To transfigure you and create you in (forms) that you know not.

61 That We may transfigure you and make you what ye know not.

62 And indeed, you have already known the first form of creation (i.e. the creation of Adam): why then do you not remember (or take heed)?

62 And verily ye know the first creation. Why, then, do ye not reflect ?

63 Then tell Me about the seed that you sow in the ground.

63 Have ye seen that which ye cultivate ?

64 Is it you that make it grow, or are We the Grower?

64 Is it ye who foster it, or are We the Fosterer ?

65 Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry pieces, and you would be regretful (or left in wonderment) [Tafsir Ibn Kathir].

65 If We willed, We verily could make it chaff, then would ye cease not to exclaim:

66 (Saying): "We are indeed Mughramun (i.e. ruined or have lost the money without any profit, or are punished by the loss of all that we spend for cultivation)! (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi)

66 Lo! we are laden with debt!

67 "Nay, but we are deprived!"

67 Nay, but we are deprived!

68 Then tell Me about the water that you drink.

68 Have ye observed the water which ye drink ?

69 Is it you who cause it from the rain-clouds to come down, or are We the Causer of it to come down?

69 Is it ye who shed it from the raincloud, or are We the Shedder ?

70 If We willed, We verily could make it salt (and undrinkable): why then do you not give thanks (to Allah)?

70 If We willed We verily could make it bitter. Why then, give ye not thanks ?

71 Then tell Me about the fire which you kindle.

71 Have ye observed the fire which ye strike out;

72 Is it you who made the tree thereof to grow, or are We the Grower?

72 Was it ye who made the tree thereof to grow, or were We the grower ?

73 We have made it a Reminder (of the Hell-fire in the Hereafter), and an article of use for the travellers (and all the others, in this world).

73 We, even We, appointed it a memorial and a comfort for the dwellers in the wilderness.

74 Then glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.

74 Therefor (O Muhammad), praise the name of thy Lord, the Tremendous.

75 So I swear by the setting of the stars.

75 Nay, I swear by the places of the stars -

76 And verily that is indeed a great oath, if you but know.

76 And lo! that verily is a tremendous oath, if ye but knew -

77 That (this) is indeed an honourable recitation (the Noble Qur'an).

77 That (this) is indeed a noble Qur'an

78 In a Book well-guarded (with Allah in the heaven i.e. Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz ).

78 In a Book kept hidden

79 Which (that Book with Allah) none can touch but the purified (i.e. the angels).

79 Which none toucheth save the purified,

80 A Revelation (this Qur'an) from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).

80 A revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.

81 Is it such a talk (this Qur'an) that you (disbelievers) deny?

81 Is it this Statement that ye scorn,

82 And instead (of thanking Allah) for the provision He gives you, you deny (Him by disbelief)!

82 And make denial thereof your livelihood ?

83 Then why do you not (intervene) when (the soul of a dying person) reaches the throat?

83 Why, then, when (the soul) cometh up to the throat (of the dying)

84 And you at the moment are looking on,

84 And ye are at that moment looking

85 But We (i.e. Our angels who take the soul) are nearer to him than you, but you see not, (Tafsir At-Tabari)

85 - And We are nearer unto him than ye are, but ye see not -

86 Then why do you not - if you are exempt from the reckoning and recompense (punishment) -

86 Why then, if ye are not in bondage (unto Us),

87 Bring back the soul (to its body), if you are truthful?

87 Do ye not force it back, if ye are truthful ?

88 Then, if he (the dying person) be of the Muqarrabun (those brought near to Allah),

88 Thus if he is of those brought nigh,

89 (There is for him) rest and provision, and a Garden of Delights (Paradise).

89 Then breath of life, and plenty, and a Garden of delight.

90 And if he (the dying person) be of those on the Right Hand,

90 And if he is of those on the right hand,

91 Then there is safety and peace (from the Punishment of Allah) for those on the right Hand.

91 Then (the greeting) "Peace be unto thee" from those on the right hand.

92 But if he (the dying person) be of the denying (of the Resurrection), the erring (away from the Right Path of Islamic Monotheism),

92 But if he is of the rejecters, the erring,

93 Then for him is an entertainment with boiling water.

93 Then the welcome will be boiling water

94 And burning in Hell-fire.

94 And roasting at hell - fire.

95 Verily, this! This is an absolute Truth with certainty.

95 Lo! this is certain truth.

96 So glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.

96 Therefor (O Muhammad) praise the name of thy Lord, the Tremendous.
