Chapter 78 - "The Great Event"
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
78.1: Of what do they ask one another?
78.2: About the great event,
78.3: About which they differ?
78.4: Nay! they shall soon come to know
78.5: Nay! Nay! they shall soon know.
78.6: Have We not made the earth an even expanse?
78.7: And the mountains as projections (thereon)?
78.8: And We created you in pairs,
78.9: And We made your sleep to be rest (to you),
78.10: And We made the night to be a covering,
78.11: And We made the day for seeking livelihood.
78.12 And We made above you seven strong ones,
78.13: And We made a shining lamp,
78.14: And We send down from the clouds water pouring forth abundantly,
78.15: That We may bring forth thereby corn and herbs,
78.16: And gardens dense and luxuriant.
78.17: Surely the day of decision is (a day) appointed:
78.18: The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you.shall come forth in hosts, 19 And the heaven shall be opened so that it shall be all openings,
78.20: And the mountains shall be moved off so that they shall remain a mere semblance.
78.21: Surely hell lies in wait,
78.22: A place of resort for the inordinate,
78.23: Living therein for ages.
78.24: They shall not taste therein cool nor drink
78.25: But boiling and intensely cold water,
78.26: Requital corresponding.
78.27: Surely they feared not the account,
78.28: And called Our communications a lie, giving the lie (to the truth).
78.29: And We have recorded everything in a book,
78.30: So taste! for We will not add to you aught but chastisement.
78.31: Surely for those who guard (against evil) is achievement,
78.32: Gardens and vineyards,
78.33: And those showing freshness of youth, equals in age,
78.34: And a pure cup.
78.35: They shall not hear therein any vain words nor lying.
78.36: A reward from your Lord, a gift according to a reckoning:
78.37: The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, the Beneficent God, they shall not be able to address Him.
78.38: The day on which the spirit and the angels shall stand in ranks; they shall not speak except he whom the Beneficent God permits and who speaks the right thing.
78.39: That is the sure day, so whoever desires may take refuge with his Lord.
78.40: Surely We have warned you of a chastisement near at hand: the day when man shall see what his two hands have sent before, and the unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust!
