English - Chapter 79 - An-Naziat

By those [stars] who rise only to sit

And move [in their orbits] steadily

And float [through space] smoothly

And yet some overtake [others] swiftly

Thus they fulfill the [Creator's] purpose

On the Day when the world will shudder

Followed by a tremor

Hearts, that Day, will shiver

and eyes are humbled

They say, "Are we to be restored to the original condition

After we have turned into decayed bones

They say, "This will be a losing come back

But all it will take is a single blast

and they will be awake and above ground

Has there the story of Moses reached you

When his Lord called out to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa

Go to Pharaoh. For he has transgressed

and ask him, "Would you be willing to purify yourself

And I will guide you to your Lord so you would be in awe of Him

And he showed him the greatest sign

but Pharaoh rejected the offer and disobeyed

Then he hastily turned away

and gathered [his people] and proclaimed

I am your lord, the most high

So God seized him with punishment, as an example, in the life to come as well as in this life

In this, there is a warning for whomever would fear [God]

Are you more difficult to create or is the heaven that He built

He raised it high and proportioned it

He darkened its night and brought out its morning light

After that He spread out the earth

From it, He produced its water and its pasture

And He set the mountains firmly in place

for you and for your animals to enjoy

But when the Great Calamity arrives

a Day when the human being will remember what he has done

and Hell will be there for all to see

for him who transgressed

and preferred the life of this world

But as for him who feared to stand one day in front of his Lord and therefore restrained himself from following his whims and desires

then Heaven will be home

They ask you about the Hour, "When will it take place

How can you possibly know that

Its time is only known to your Lord

You are only to warn those who dread it

On the Day they see it, it will seem as though they only stayed an evening or a morning
