۞ What do they quarrel about? 1 (Is it) of the great announcement 2 Regarding which they hold different views. 3 Indeed, they shall know! 4 Again, by no means! anon they shall know. 5 Did We not make the earth a spreading, 6 And the mountains as stakes? 7 And We have created you in pairs, 8 And made your sleep for rest, 9 and We made the night a mantle, 10 and We appointed day for a livelihood. 11 and built above you seven strong firmaments, 12 And made [therein] a burning lamp 13 and sent down heavy rains from the clouds 14 to make the seeds, plants, 15 and gardens dense with foliage. 16 Surely the Day of Judgement has an appointed time; 17 The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you shall come forth in hosts, 18 and when the sky shall be opened up and will become all doors; 19 And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage. 20 Indeed, Gehenna (Hell) has become an ambush, 21 a resort for the rebellious; 22 They will remain in it for ages. 23 They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink 24 Save scalding water and corruption. 25 Recompense fitted! 26 for they never expected to be called to account, 27 and they absolutely belied Our verses, 28 and everything We have numbered in a Book. 29 "So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in Punishment." 30
