Verse 1 — Surah An-Naziat 79:1

I swear by those (angels) who pull out (the souls of the infidels) with extreme force

Verse 2 — Surah An-Naziat 79:2

and by those (angels) who untie the knot (of the souls of the believers) smoothly

Verse 3 — Surah An-Naziat 79:3

and by those who float (in the atmosphere) swiftly

Verse 4 — Surah An-Naziat 79:4

then proceed forward quickly

Verse 5 — Surah An-Naziat 79:5

then manage (to do) everything (they are ordered to do)

Verse 6 — Surah An-Naziat 79:6

(you will be resurrected) on the Day when the shocking event (i.e. the first blowing of the trumpet) will shock (everything)

Verse 7 — Surah An-Naziat 79:7

followed by the next one (i.e. the second blowing of the trumpet)

Verse 8 — Surah An-Naziat 79:8

On that day, hearts (of people) will be throbbing

Verse 9 — Surah An-Naziat 79:9

with their eyes downcast

Verse 10 — Surah An-Naziat 79:10

They (the infidels) say, .Are we going to be brought back to our former state (of Life)

Verse 11 — Surah An-Naziat 79:11

Is it when we are turned into decayed bones

Verse 12 — Surah An-Naziat 79:12

They say, .If so, that will be a harmful homecoming

Verse 13 — Surah An-Naziat 79:13

In fact, it will be only a single harsh voice

Verse 14 — Surah An-Naziat 79:14

and in no time they will be (brought) into the plain (of Hashr)

Verse 15 — Surah An-Naziat 79:15

Has there come to you the narrative about Musa

Verse 16 — Surah An-Naziat 79:16

(Recall) when his Lord called to him in the blessed valley of Tuwa

Verse 17 — Surah An-Naziat 79:17

Go to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh). Indeed, he has crossed all bounds

Verse 18 — Surah An-Naziat 79:18

And say (to him,) ‘Would you like to purify yourself

Verse 19 — Surah An-Naziat 79:19

and that I should guide you to your Lord, so that you fear (Him)?‘

Verse 20 — Surah An-Naziat 79:20

So, he (Musa) showed him the biggest sign

Verse 21 — Surah An-Naziat 79:21

But he rejected and disobeyed

Verse 22 — Surah An-Naziat 79:22

then he turned back, and tried hard (to refute the Messenger)

Verse 23 — Surah An-Naziat 79:23

then he gathered (his people) and shouted

Verse 24 — Surah An-Naziat 79:24

and said, .I am your supreme lord

Verse 25 — Surah An-Naziat 79:25

So, Allah seized him for an exemplary punishment in the Hereafter and the present world

Verse 26 — Surah An-Naziat 79:26

Indeed, there is a lesson for him who fears (Allah)

Verse 27 — Surah An-Naziat 79:27

Is your creation more difficult or that of the sky? He has built it

Verse 28 — Surah An-Naziat 79:28

He has raised its height, then made it proper

Verse 29 — Surah An-Naziat 79:29

and darkened its night, and brought forth its daylight

Verse 30 — Surah An-Naziat 79:30

and, after that, He spread out the earth

Verse 31 — Surah An-Naziat 79:31

From it, He brought out its water and its meadows

Verse 32 — Surah An-Naziat 79:32

and firmly fixed the mountains

Verse 33 — Surah An-Naziat 79:33

(all this) as a benefit to you and your cattle

Verse 34 — Surah An-Naziat 79:34

So when the Greatest Havoc will take place

Verse 35 — Surah An-Naziat 79:35

on the day when man will recall what he did

Verse 36 — Surah An-Naziat 79:36

and the Hell will be exposed for all who see

Verse 37 — Surah An-Naziat 79:37

then for the one who had rebelled

Verse 38 — Surah An-Naziat 79:38

and preferred the worldly life (to the Hereafter)

Verse 39 — Surah An-Naziat 79:39

the Hell will be the abode

Verse 40 — Surah An-Naziat 79:40

whereas for the one who feared to stand before his Lord, and restrained his self from the (evil) desire

Verse 41 — Surah An-Naziat 79:41

the Paradise will be the abode

Verse 42 — Surah An-Naziat 79:42

They ask you (O Prophet,) about the Hour (the Day of Judgment) as to when it will take place

Verse 43 — Surah An-Naziat 79:43

In which capacity are you to tell this

Verse 44 — Surah An-Naziat 79:44

With your Lord is the final word about it

Verse 45 — Surah An-Naziat 79:45

You are only a warner for anyone who fears it

Verse 46 — Surah An-Naziat 79:46

The day they will see it, it will seem to them as if they did not live (in the world) but only for one afternoon or for the morning thereof
