Chapter 75 - "The Resurrection"
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
75.1: Nay! I swear by the day of resurrection.
75.2: Nay! I swear by the self-accusing soul.
75.3: Does man think that We shall not gather his bones?
75.4: Yea! We are able to make complete his very fingertips
75.5: Nay! man desires to give the lie to what is before him.
75.6: He asks: When is the day of resurrection?
75.7: So when the sight becomes dazed,
75.8: And the moon becomes dark,
75.9: And the sun and the moon are brought together,
75.10: Man shall say on that day: Whither to fly to?
75.11: By no means! there shall be no place of refuge!
75.12: With your Lord alone shall on that day be the place of rest.
75.13: Man shall on that day be informed of what he sent before and (what he) put off.
75.14: Nay! man is evidence against himself,
75.15: Though he puts forth his excuses.
75.16: Do not move your tongue with it to make haste with it, 17: Surely on Us (devolves) the collecting of it and the reciting of it.
75.18: Therefore when We have recited it, follow its recitation.
75.19: Again on Us (devolves) the explaining of it.
75.20: Nay! But you love the present life,
75.21: And neglect the hereafter.
75.22: (Some) faces on that day shall be bright,
75.23: Looking to their Lord.
75.24: And (other) faces on that day shall be gloomy,
75.25: Knowing that there will be made to befall them some great calamity.
75.26: Nay! When it comes up to the throat,
75.27: And it is said: Who will be a magician?
75.28: And he is sure that it is the (hour of) parting
75.29: And affliction is combined with affliction;
75.30: To your Lord on that day shall be the driving.
75.31: So he did not accept the truth, nor did he pray,
75.32: But called the truth a lie and turned back,
75.33: Then he went to his followers, walking away in haughtiness.
75.34: Nearer to you (is destruction) and nearer,
75.35: Again (consider how) nearer to you and nearer.
75.36: Does man think that he is to be left to wander without an aim?
75.37: Was he not a small seed in the seminal elements,
75.38: Then he was a clot of blood, so He created (him) then made (him) perfect.
75.39: Then He made of him two kinds, the male and the female.
75.40: Is not He able to give life to the dead?
