The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ Concerning what are they disputing? 1 About the great news, (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, the Quran, which Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) brought and the Day of Resurrection, etc.), 2 Regarding which they hold different views. 3 No! They are going to know. 4 Yes, indeed, before long they will learn all about it. 5 Have We not made the earth as a bed, 6 And the mountains as projections (thereon)? 7 We created you in pairs, 8 And made your sleep a rest. 9 and made the night a covering, 10 And made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And built seven strong roofs above you. 12 And have kept a very bright lamp in it. 13 And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water. 14 to make the seeds, plants, 15 And gardens of luxurious growth? 16 Surely the Day of Judgement has an appointed time; 17 The Day when the Trumpet will be blown, and you shall come forth in crowds (groups); 18 and when the sky shall be opened up and will become all doors; 19 And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage. 20 Truly, Hell is a place of ambush, 21 for the insolent a resort, 22 therein they shall abide for ages, 23 tasting therein neither coolness nor any drink 24 only burning despair and ice-cold darkness: 25 A fitting recompense (for them). 26 For lo! they looked not for a reckoning; 27 And rejected Our signs as lies. 28 And all things We have recorded in a Book. 29 [So We shall say], "Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil doings,] for now We shall bestow on you nothing but more and more suffering!" 30
