The Snatchers (Al-Naze'aat)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the angels who drag forth vehemently. 1 and gently take it away; 2 by the angels who float (in the heavens by the will of God), 3 By the angels hastening, 4 And then they manage the affair, 5 On the Day, the shiverer shivers 6 Followed by the second blast, 7 Hearts, that Day, will tremble, 8 and their eyes shall be downcast with dread. 9 They say: “Shall we indeed be restored to life, 10 What, when we are bones old and wasted?' 11 They say: “That will then be a return with a great loss!” 12 It will only be a single blast, 13 and behold, they are awakened. 14 Has Moses' story reached you? 15 His Lord called out to him by the sacred valley of Tuwa: 16 'Go to Pharaoh; he has waxed insolent. 17 And say to him, "Would you like to reform yourself? 18 I shall guide you to your Lord so that you may perhaps have fear of Him". 19 So Moosa showed him a magnificent sign. 20 but he belied and disobeyed, 21 Then he turned his back, striving. 22 Then gathered he and summoned 23 And said, "I am your most exalted lord." 24 So Allah seized him with the punishment of the Everlasting Life, and of this world. 25 Indeed in this is a lesson for one who fears. 26
