The News (Al-Naba')
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
۞ What do they question each other about! 1 About the Great News 2 concerning which they have disputes. 3 Nay, but in time they will come to understand [it]! 4 They will indeed come to know soon. 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 and the mountains as pegs? 7 And We created you in pairs, 8 And have made your sleep as a thing for rest. 9 and made the night [its] cloak 10 And We have made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And We have built above you seven strong ones, 12 (the sun) as a shining torch 13 and sent down abundant water from the clouds 14 In order to produce grain and plants with it. 15 And gardens of entwined growth. 16 Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time - 17 the Day that the Horn is blown, and you shall come in crowds 18 and heaven is opened, and become gates, 19 And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage. 20 Lo! hell lurketh in ambush, 21 A dwelling place for the Taghun (those who transgress the boundry limits set by Allah like polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, hyprocrites, sinners, criminals, etc.), 22 where they shall remain for ages, 23 and where they will taste neither coolness nor any drink 24 Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold, 25 for a suitable recompense. 26 Verily they were wont not to look for a reckoning. 27 and persistently rejected Our revelations. 28 And We have recorded everything in a book, 29 'Taste! We shall not increase you except in punishment' 30
