In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ What do they quarrel about? 1 About the awesome tiding [of resurrection,] 2 That over which they are in disagreement. 3 Nay! they shall soon come to know 4 Nay, again, but they will come to know! 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 And the mountains as stakes? 7 And We created you in pairs 8 And made sleep for you to rest, 9 And made the night as a covering, 10 and We appointed day for a livelihood. 11 And We have built above you seven strong ones, 12 and We have set therein a glowing lamp. 13 and have sent down from the clouds, pouring rain 14 That We may bring forth thereby corn and herbs, 15 And gardens of thick foliage. 16 Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 On that day the trumpet will be sounded and you will come (to Us) in huge groups. 18 and the heaven shall be opened, and become gates, 19 And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage. 20 Surely, Hell lies in wait, 21 a resort for the rebellious; 22 for the rebellious ones and they will live therein for ages. 23 They will neither taste anything cool in it, nor anything to drink. 24 except boiling water and pus 25 as a fitting recompense for their deeds. 26 For lo! they looked not for a reckoning; 27 And they belied Our revelations with strong belying. 28 but We have placed on record every single thing [of what they did]. 29 So taste (the fruit of your deeds). We shall only increase your torment. 30
