The News (Al-Naba')
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ What are they asking (one another)? 1 Concerning the Great News, 2 About which they differ? 3 But they will soon come to know. 4 They will indeed come to know soon. 5 Have We not made the earth as a bed, 6 and fixed the mountains like pegs, 7 And (have We not) created you in pairs, 8 and We made your sleep a rest, 9 And made the night as clothing 10 And the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments, 12 And have appointed a dazzling lamp, 13 And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water. 14 In order to produce grain and plants with it. 15 And gardens of thick growth. 16 Surely a time is fixed for the Day of Judgement. 17 the Day when the Trumpet shall be blown, and you will come forth in multitudes; 18 The heavens will have openings like doors. 19 And the mountains will have been removed away, and they will have become as mirage. 20 Certainly Hell lies in wait, 21 A place of resort for the inordinate, 22 They will tarry therein for ages. 23 tasting therein neither coolness nor any drink 24 except boiling water and pus 25 A fitting recompense (for them). 26 Surely they feared not the account, 27 And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial. 28 But all things We have enumerated in writing. 29 (They will be told), "Suffer, We shall only increase the torment for you". 30
