Nay, and by the moon, 32 And by the Night as it retreateth, 33 And by the dawn when it brightens, 34 Indeed, the Fire is of the greatest [afflictions] 35 A warning for people -- 36 Whoever of you desires to progress or lag behind. 37 Every soul is held in pledge for what it earns, 38 Except those on the right side. 39 in Gardens they will question 40 and will ask of the criminals, 41 "What was it that brought you to Hell?" 42 They will answer: We were not of those who prayed 43 And we used not to feed the poor; 44 We indulged and persisted in useless disputes, 45 “And used to deny the Day of Justice.” 46 until certainty came upon us [in death]." 47 So the intercession of intercessors shall not avail them. 48 WHAT, THEN, is amiss with them that they turn away from all admonition 49 As though they were asses startled. 50 fleeing from a lion? 51 Rather, every person among them desires that he would be given scriptures spread about. 52 No indeed; but they do not fear the Hereafter. 53 No, indeed, surely, this is a Reminder. 54 So whosoever willeth may heed it. 55 And they will not mind unless Allah please. He is worthy to be feared and worthy to forgive. 56
