Surah An-Nazi'at (Those who drag forth) — 46 verses

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

79:1

By the forceful chargers

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:2

raring to go,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:3

sweeping ahead at full stretch,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:4

overtaking swiftly

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:5

to bring the matter to an end,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:6

on the Day when the blast reverberates

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:7

and the second blast follows,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:8

hearts will tremble

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:9

and eyes will be downcast.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:10

They say, ‘What? shall we be brought back to life,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:11

after we have turned into decayed bones?’ and they say,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:12

‘Such a return is impossible!’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:13

But all it will take is a single blast,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:14

and they will be back above ground.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:15

Have you [Prophet] heard the story of Moses?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:16

His Lord called out to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:17

‘Go to Pharaoh, for he has exceeded all bounds,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:18

and ask him, “Do you want to purify yourself [of sin]?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:19

Do you want me to guide you to your Lord, so that you may hold Him in awe?” ’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:20

Moses showed him the great sign,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:21

but he denied it and refused [the faith].

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:22

He turned away and hastily

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:23

gathered his people, proclaiming,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:24

‘I am your supreme lord,’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:25

so God condemned him to punishment in the life to come as well as in this life:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:26

there truly is a lesson in this for anyone who stands in awe of God.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:27

Which is harder to create: you people or the sky that He built,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:28

raising it high and perfecting it,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:29

giving darkness to its night and bringing out its morning brightness,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:30

and the earth, too, He spread out,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:31

bringing waters and pastures out of it,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:32

and setting firm mountains [in it]

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:33

for you and your animals to enjoy?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:34

When the great overwhelming event arrives

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:35

on the Day that man remembers what he has done

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:36

and Hell is there for all to see,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:37

for anyone who has transgressed

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:38

and preferred the present life

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:39

Hell will be home;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:40

for anyone who feared the meeting with his Lord and restrained himself from base desires,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:41

Paradise will be home.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:42

They ask you [Prophet] about the Hour,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:43

saying, ‘When will it arrive?’, but how can you tell [them that]?

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:44

Its time is known only to your Lord;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:45

you are only sent to warn those who fear it.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

79:46

On the Day they see it, it will seem they lingered [in this life] an evening [at most,] or its morning.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
