Nay, by the Moon 32 And the night when on the wane, 33 and by the day when it dawns (with its radiance), 34 hell is certainly the greatest calamity. 35 As a warning unto men, 36 a warning to everyone of you whether he would like to come forward or lag behind. 37 Every soul is mortgaged for its own deeds. 38 Except the companions of the right, 39 In gardens they will ask one another 40 of those who were lost in sin: 41 What hath brought you to this burning? 42 They will answer: "We did not fulfil our devotional obligations, 43 and neither did we feed the needy; 44 and we plunged along with the plungers, 45 and the Day of Judgment we were wont to call a lie 46 Till the Inevitable came unto us. 47 Then the intercession of the intercessors shall not profit them. 48 What ails them, that they turn away from the Reminder, 49 like startled wild donkeys 50 That had fled from a lion? 51 Indeed, everyone of them desires to have sheets of revelations unfolded before them -- 52 No, indeed they have no fear of the Everlasting Life. 53 Nay; this is an Exhortation. 54 So whoever pleases may mind it. 55 they will only take heed if God so wills: He is the Lord who is worthy to be feared: the Lord of forgiveness. 56
