The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
۞ Concerning what are they disputing? 1 About the great news, (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, the Quran, which Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) brought and the Day of Resurrection, etc.), 2 whereon they are at variance. 3 Indeed they will come to know soon; 4 They will indeed come to know soon. 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 and the mountains [its] pegs? 7 And We created you in pairs, 8 And made sleep for you to rest, 9 and We appointed night for a garment, 10 And made the day as a means of subsistence? 11 And We have builded over you seven strong heavens. 12 and We appointed a blazing lamp 13 And do We not send down from the clouds water in abundance, 14 to make the seeds, plants, 15 And gardens of thick foliage. 16 Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 The Day when the Trumpet will be blown, and you shall come forth in crowds (groups); 18 The heavens will be opened wide and turn into so many doors, 19 And the hills are set in motion and become as a mirage. 20 Lo! hell lurketh in ambush, 21 The destination of the rebellious. 22 They will abide therein for ages. 23 Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink. 24 But boiling and intensely cold water, 25 An exact recompense (according to their evil crimes). 26 Indeed, they did not hope for a Reckoning, 27 and they cried loud lies to Our signs; 28 And everything have We recorded in a Book. 29 [And so We shall say:] "Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil doings,] for now We shall bestow on you nothing but more and more suffering!" 30
