Surah Al-Qiyamah (The Resurrection) — 40 verses

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

75:1

By the Day of Resurrection

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:2

and by the self-reproaching soul!

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:3

Does man think We shall not put his bones back together?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:4

In fact, We can reshape his very fingertips.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:5

Yet man wants to deny what is ahead of him:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:6

he says, ‘So, when will this Day of Resurrection be?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:7

When eyes are dazzled

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:8

and the moon eclipsed,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:9

when the sun and the moon are brought together,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:10

on that Day man will say, ‘Where can I escape?’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:11

Truly, there is no refuge:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:12

they will all return to your Lord on that Day.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:13

On that Day, man will be told what he put first and what he put last.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:14

Truly, man is a clear witness against himself,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:15

despite all the excuses he may put forward.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:16

[Prophet], do not rush your tongue in an attempt to hasten [your memorization of] the Revelation:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:17

We shall make sure of its safe collection and recitation.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:18

When We have recited it, repeat the recitation

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:19

and We shall make it clear.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:20

Truly you [people] love this fleeting world

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:21

and neglect the life to come.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:22

On that Day there will be radiant faces,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:23

looking towards their Lord,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:24

and on that Day there will be the sad and despairing faces

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:25

of those who realize that a great calamity is about to befall them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:26

Truly, when the soul reaches the collarbone;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:27

when it is said, ‘Could any charm-healer save him now?’;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:28

when he knows it is the final parting;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:29

when his legs are brought together:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:30

on that day he will be driven towards your Lord.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:31

He neither believed nor prayed,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:32

but denied the truth and turned away,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:33

walking back to his people with a conceited swagger.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:34

Closer and closer it comes to you.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:35

Closer and closer still.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:36

Does man think he will be left alone?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:37

Was he not just a drop of spilt-out sperm,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:38

which became a clinging form, which God shaped in due proportion,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:39

fashioning from it the two sexes, male and female?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

75:40

Does He who can do this not have the power to bring the dead back to life?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
