In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

56.1: When the great event comes to pass,

56.2: There is no belying its coming to pass --

56.3: Abasing (one party), exalting (the other),

56.4: When the earth shall be shaken with a (severe) shaking,

56.5: And the mountains shall be made to crumble with (an awful) crumbling,

56.6: So that they shall be as scattered dust.

56.7: And you shall be three sorts.

56.8: Then (as to) the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand!

56.9: And (as to) the companions of the left hand; how wretched are the companions of the left hand!

56.10: And the foremost are the foremost,

56.11: These are they who are drawn nigh (to Allah),

56.12: In the gardens of bliss.

56.13: A numerous company from among the first,

56.14: And a few from among the latter.

56.15: On thrones decorated,

56.16: Reclining on them, facing one another.

56.17: Round about them shall go youths never altering in age,

56.18: With goblets and ewers and a cup of pure drink;

56.19: They shall not be affected with headache thereby, nor shall they get exhausted,

56.20: And fruits such as they choose,

56.21: And the flesh of fowl such as they desire.

56.22: And pure, beautiful ones,

56.23: The like of the hidden pearls:

56.24: A reward for what they used to do.

56.25: They shall not hear therein vain or sinful discourse,

56.26: Except the word peace, peace.

56.27: And the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand!

56.28: Amid thornless lote-trees,

56.29: And banana-trees (with fruits), one above another.

56.30: And extended shade,

56.31: And water flowing constantly,

56.32: And abundant fruit,

56.33: Neither intercepted nor forbidden,

56.34: And exalted thrones.

56.35: Surely We have made them to grow into a (new) growth,

56.36: Then We have made them virgins,

56.37: Loving, equals in age,

56.38: For the sake of the companions of the right hand.

56.39: A numerous company from among the first,

56.40: And a numerous company from among the last.

56.41: And those of the left hand, how wretched are those of the left hand!

56.42: In hot wind and boiling water,

56.43: And the shade of black smoke,

56.44: Neither cool nor honorable.

56.45: Surely they were before that made to live in ease and plenty.

56.46: And they persisted in the great violation.

56.47: And they used to say: What! when we die and have become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised?

56.48: Or our fathers of yore?

56.49: Say: The first and the last, SO. Shall most surely be gathered together for the appointed hour of a known day.

56.51: Then shall you, O you who err and call it a lie!

56.52: Most surely eat of a tree of Zaqqoom,

56.53: And fill (your) bellies with it;

56.54: Then drink over it of boiling water;

56.55: And drink as drinks the thirsty camel.

56.56: This is their entertainment on the day of requital.

56.57: We have created you, why do you not then assent?

56.58: Have you considered the seed?

56.59: Is it you that create it or are We the creators?

56.60: We have ordained death among you and We are not to be overcome,

56.61: In order that We may bring in your place the likes of you and make you grow into what you know not.

56.62: And certainly you know the first growth, why do you not then mind?

56.63: Have you considered what you sow?

56.64: Is it you that cause it to grow, or are We the causers of growth?

56.65: If We pleased, We should have certainly made it broken down into pieces, then would you begin tb lament:

56.66: Surely we are burdened with debt:

56.67: Nay! we are deprived.

56.68: Have you considered the water which you drink?

56.69: Is it you that send it down from the clouds, or are We the senders?

56.70: If We pleased, We would have made it salty; why do you not then give thanks?

56.71: Have you considered the fire which you strike?

56.72: Is it you that produce the trees for it, or are We the producers?

56.73: We have made it a reminder and an advantage for the wayfarers of the desert.

56.74: Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.

56.75: But nay! I swear by the falling of stars;

56.76: And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew;

56.77: Most surely it is an honored Quran,

56.78: In a book that is protected

56.79: None shall touch it save the purified ones.

56.80: A revelation by the Lord of the worlds.

56.81: Do you then hold this announcement in contempt?

56.82: And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence.

56.83: Why is it not then that when it (soul) comes up to the throat,

56.84: And you at that time look on --

56.85: And We are nearer to it than you, but you do not see --

56.86: Then why is it not -- if you are not held under authority --

56.87: That you send it (not) back -- if you are truthful?

56.88: Then if he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah),

56.89: Then happiness and bounty and a garden of bliss.

56.90: And if he is one of those on the right hand,

56.91: Then peace to you from those on the right hand.

56.92: And if he is one of the rejecters, the erring ones,

56.93: He shall have an entertainment of boiling water,

56.94: And burning in hell.

56.95: Most surely this is a certain truth.

56.96: Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
