English - Chapter 75 - Al-Qiyamah

I call to witness the day of resurrection

And I call to witness the self-accusing soul

Does the human being think that We cannot assemble his bones

Indeed We are able to put together in perfect order, the very tips of their fingers

But the human being wishes to do wrong in the time in front of him

He questions, “When is the Day of Resurrection?”

And the Moon is buried in darkness

And the Sun and Moon are synchronized

That day the human being will say, “Where is the refuge?”

By no means is it a place of safety

Before your Lord that day will be the place of rest

That day the human being will be told all that he pushed forward, and all that he keep back

No, the human being will be evidence against himself

Even though he were to put forth his excuses

Move not your tongue to hasten it

It is for Us to collect it and to recite it

But when We have recited it, follow its recital

And indeed it is upon Us to explain it

No, but you love the fleeting life

And forget the hereafter

Some faces that day will beam

Looking towards their Lord

And some faces that day will be sad and dismal

In the thought that some backbreaking calamity was about to be inflicted on them

Yes, when it reaches to the collarbone

And there will be a cry, “Is this an illusion?”

And he will conclude that it was the time of parting

And one leg will be joined with another

That day all will strive to your Lord

So he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray

Instead he rejected truth and turned away

Then he went to his family conceited

Woe to you, yes woe

Again, woe to you, yes, woe

Does the human being think that he will be left uncontrollable

Were they not a zygote from sperm emitted

Then did they become a leech-like fetus, then God made and fashion them in due proportion

And of them He made two genders, male and female

Then does He not have the power to give life to the dead
