WaalnnaziAAati gharqan
Chapter 79, 46 verses
By the (angels) who tear out (the souls of the wicked) with violence;
WaalnnaziAAati gharqan
By those who gently draw out (the souls of the blessed);
Waalnnashitati nashtan
And by those who glide along (on errands of mercy),
Waalssabihati sabhan
Then press forward as in a race,
Faalssabiqati sabqan
Then arrange to do (the Commands of their Lord),
Faalmudabbirati amran
One Day everything that can be in commotion will be in violent commotion,

Followed by oft - repeated (commotions):
TatbaAAuha alrradifatu
Hearts that Day will be in agitation;
Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun
Cast down will be (their owners') eyes.
Absaruha khashiAAatun
They say (now): "What! shall we indeed be returned to (our) former state?
Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati

Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan
They say: "It would, in that case, be a return with loss!"
Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun

Faitha hum bialssahirati
Has the story of Moses reached thee?
Hal ataka hadeethu moosa
Behold, thy Lord did call to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa: -
Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan
"Go thou to Pharaoh for he has indeed transgressed all bounds:
Ithhab ila firAAawna innahu tagha
"And say to him, 'Wouldst thou that thou shouldst be purified (from sin)? -
Faqul hal laka ila an tazakka
"'And that I guide thee to thy Lord, so thou shouldst fear Him?'"
Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha
Then did (Moses) show him the Great Sign.
Faarahu alayata alkubra
But (Pharaoh) rejected it and disobeyed (guidance);
Fakaththaba waAAasa

Thumma adbara yasAAa
Then he collected (his men) and made a proclamation,
Fahashara fanada
Saying, "I am your Lord, Most High".
Faqala ana rabbukumu alaAAla
But Allah did punish him, (and made an) example of him, - in the Hereafter, as in this life.
Faakhathahu Allahu nakala alakhirati waaloola
Verily in this is an instructive warning for whosoever feareth (Allah).
Inna fee thalika laAAibratan liman yakhsha
What! Are ye the more difficult to create or the heaven (above)? (Allah) hath constructed it:
Aantum ashaddu khalqan ami alssamao banaha
On high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection.
RafaAAa samkaha fasawwaha
Its night doth He endow with darkness, and its splendour doth He bring out (with light).
Waaghtasha laylaha waakhraja duhaha
And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse);
Waalarda baAAda thalika dahaha
He draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture;
Akhraja minha maaha wamarAAaha
And the mountains hath He firmly fixed; -
Waaljibala arsaha
For use and convenience to you and your cattle.
MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum
Therefore, when there comes the great, overwhelming (Event), -
Faitha jaati alttammatu alkubra
The Day when man shall remember (all) that he strove for,
Yawma yatathakkaru alinsanu ma saAAa
And Hell - Fire shall be placed in full view for (all) to see, -
Waburrizati aljaheemu liman yara
Then, for such as had transgressed all bounds,
Faamma man tagha
And had preferred the life of this world,
Waathara alhayata alddunya
The Abode will be Hell - Fire;
Fainna aljaheema hiya almawa
And for such as had entertained the fear of standing before their Lord's (tribunal) and had restrained (their) soul from lower desires,
Waama man khafa maqama rabbihi wanaha alnnafsa AAani alhawa
Their abode will be the Garden.
Fainna aljannata hiya almawa
They ask thee about the Hour, - 'When will be its appointed time?
Yasaloonaka AAani alssaAAati ayyana mursaha
Wherein art thou (concerned) with the declaration thereof?
Feema anta min thikraha
With thy Lord in the Limit fixed therefor.
Ila rabbika muntahaha
Thou art but a Warner for such as fear it.
Innama anta munthiru man yakhshaha
The Day they see it, (It will be) as if they had tarried but a single evening, or (at most till) the following morn!
Kaannahum yawma yarawnaha lam yalbathoo illa AAashiyyatan aw duhaha
