Resurrection (Al-Qeyaamah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
۞ Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection; 1 And I swear by the self-reproaching soul. 2 Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones? 3 Indeed yes, We are able to shape his fingerstips yet again! 4 In fact man wishes to commit evil in front of Him! 5 He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection?" 6 So when vision is dazzled 7 and the moon is eclipsed, 8 And sun and moon are united, 9 That day man will say: "Where can I find escape?" 10 No, there is no refuge. 11 Unto thy Lord is the recourse that day. 12 Upon that day man shall be told his former deeds and his latter; 13 Aye! man against himself shall be an enlightenment. 14 Even though he were to put up his excuses. 15 Stir not thy tongue herewith to hasten it. 16 It's gathering and reciting is upon Us. 17 So when We have recited it [through Gabriel], then follow its recitation. 18 We shall be responsible for its explanation. 19 No! But you love the immediate 20 and are heedless of the Everlasting Life. 21 Upon that day faces shall be radiant, 22 Looking at their Lord. 23 And countenances on that Day shall be scowling. 24 thou mightest think the Calamity has been wreaked on them. 25 No indeed; when it reaches the clavicles 26 and the angels say, "Who will take away his soul, 27 And he bethinketh that it is the time of parting. 28 and leg is intertwined with leg, 29 That Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord! 30
