English - Chapter 79 - An-Naziat

By those that pluck out vehemently

and those that draw out violently

by those that swim serenely

and those that outstrip suddenly

by those that direct an affair

Upon the day when the first blast shivers

and the second blast follows it

hearts upon that day shall be athrob

and their eyes shall be humbled

They shall say, 'What, are we being restored as we were before

What, when we are bones old and wasted

They shall say, 'That then were a losing return

But it shall be only a single scare

and behold, they are awakened

Hast thou received the story of Moses

When his Lord called to him in the holy valley, Towa

Go to Pharaoh; he has waxed insolent

And say, "Hast thou the will to purify thyself

and that I should guide thee to thy Lord, then thou shalt fear

but he cried lies, and rebelled

then he turned away hastily

then he mustered

and proclaimed, and he said, 'I am your Lord, the Most High

So God seized him with the chastisement of the Last World and the First

Surely in that is a lesson for him who fears

What, are you stronger in constitution or the heaven He built

He lifted up its vault, and levelled it

and darkened its night, and brought forth its forenoon

and the earth-after that He spread it out

therefrom brought forth its waters and its pastures

and the mountains He set firm

an enjoyment for you and your flocks

Then, when the Great Catastrophe comes

upon the day when man shall remember what he has striven

and Hell is advanced for whoever sees

then as for him who was insolent

and preferred the present life

surely Hell shall be the refuge

But as for him who feared the Station of his Lord and forbade the soul its caprice

surely Paradise shall be the refuge

They will question thee concerning the Hour, when it shall berth

What art thou about, to mention it

Unto thy Lord is the final end of it

Thou art only the warner of him who fears it

It shall be as if; on the day they see it, they have but tarried for an evening, or its forenoon
