-
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?
-
Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated,
-
Labouring (hard), weary,-
-
The while they enter the Blazing Fire,-
-
The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,
-
No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari
-
Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.
-
(Other) faces that Day will be joyful,
-
Pleased with their striving,-
-
In a Garden on high,
-
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:
-
Therein will be a bubbling spring:
-
Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,
-
Goblets placed (ready),
-
And cushions set in rows,
-
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
-
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?-
-
And at the Sky, how it is raised high?-
-
And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?-
-
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
-
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
-
Thou art not one to manage (mens) affairs.
-
But if any turn away and reject Allah,-
-
Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,
-
For to Us will be their return;
-
Then it will be for Us to call them to account.
