English - Chapter 77 - Al-Mursalat

I CALL TO WITNESS those who are sent consecutively

And those that strike violently

And those that revive by quickening

And those that distinguish distinctly

And those that bring down the Reminder

To end all argument or to warn

What is promised will surely come to pass

When the stars are obliterated

The heavens split asunder

The mountains reduced to dust and blown away

And when the time comes for raising the little girls (buried alive)

For what day is that time fixed

The Day of Judgement

How will you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Have We not destroyed the earlier generations

So shall We make the later ones to follow them

That is what We shall do to those who are guilty of crime

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Did We not create you from contemptible water

Then We lodged you in a secure place (the womb)

For a certain appointed time

Then We facilitated (your birth). How well do We calculate

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Have We not made the earth a repository

For the living and the dead

And placed in it lofty and broad stablisers, and gave you sweet water to drink

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Go to what you used to deny

Go to the shadow with three ramifications

Neither shady nor protecting against the blazing Fire

It will throw out sparks as logs of wood

So like golden camels

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

They will not be able to speak that day

Nor given leave to make excuses

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

That will be the Day of Reckoning. Gathered will be (you) and the earlier (generations)

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Those who take heed for themselves and fear God, will be amidst shade and springs of water

And such fruits as they desire

Eat and drink with relish as reward for what you had done

That is how We reward the good

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

Eat and enjoy for a while: You are certainly sinners

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

When it is said to them: "Bow in homage," they do not bow

Alas the woe that day for those who deny

In what other lore after this will they then believe
