In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ What are they asking each other about? 1 Of the mighty Announcement, 2 on which they [so utterly] disagree. 3 No! They are going to know. 4 Again, no indeed; they shall soon know! 5 Did We not make the earth a bed? 6 and the mountains as pegs? 7 And We have created you in pairs (male and female, tall and short, good and bad, etc.). 8 And made your sleep [a means for] rest 9 made the night as a covering, 10 And made the day as a means of subsistence? 11 And built seven strong roofs above you. 12 and placed therein a hot, shining lamp, 13 And then sent down hard rain from the water bearing clouds. 14 Thereby to produce grain and plant, 15 And gardens of luxurious growth? 16 Surely a time is fixed for the Day of Judgement. 17 the Day that the Horn is blown, and you shall come in crowds 18 And the heaven shall be opened so that it shall be all openings, 19 and when the mountains are made to vanish as if they had been a mirage. 20 Indeed hell is lying in ambush. 21 For the exorbitant a receptacle. 22 Living therein for ages. 23 Finding neither sleep nor any thing to drink 24 except boiling water and pus 25 , A fitting reward. 26 They did not expect such a Judgment 27 They called Our revelations false with strong denial. 28 but We have recorded everything in a Book. 29 So taste (the fruit of your deeds). We shall only increase your torment. 30
