Chapter 79 - "The Draggers"
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
79.1: I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,
79.2: And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,
79.3: And by those who float in space,
79.4: Then those who are foremost going ahead,
79.5: Then those who regulate the affair.
79.6: The day on which the quaking one shall quake,
79.7: What must happen afterwards shall follow it.
79.8: Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
79.9: Their eyes cast down.
79.10: They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?
79.11: What! when we are rotten bones?
79.12: They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.
79.13: But it shall be only a single cry,
79.14: When lo! they shall be wakeful.
79.15: Has not there come to you the story of Musa?
79.16: When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,
79.17: Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.
79.18: Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:
79.19: And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.
79.20: So he showed him the mighty sign.
79.21: But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.
79.22: Then he went back hastily.
79.23: Then he gathered (men) and called out.
79.24: Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.
79.25: So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.
79.26: Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.
79.27: Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.
79.28: He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.
79.29: And He made dark its night and brought out its light.
79.30: And the earth, He expanded it after that.
79.31: He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.
79.32: And the mountains, He made them firm,
79.33: A provision for you and for your cattle.
79.34: But when the great predominating calamity comes;
79.35: The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,
79.36: And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees
79.37: Then as for him who is inordinate,
79.38: And prefers the life of this world,
79.39: Then surely the hell, that is the abode.
79.40: And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,
79.41: Then surely the garden -- that is the abode.
79.42: They ask you about the hour, when it will come.
79.43: About what! You are one to remind of it.
79.44: To your Lord is the goal of it.
79.45: You are only a warner to him who would fear it.
79.46: On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
