In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ Of what do they question one another? 1 Is it about the awesome tiding 2 About which they are in disagreement. 3 Nay, but in time they will come to understand [it]! 4 Nay, again, but they will come to know! 5 Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse, 6 and the mountains as pegs? 7 And We have created you in pairs; 8 And We made your sleep to be rest (to you), 9 And made the night as a covering, 10 and We appointed day for a livelihood. 11 And We have builded over you seven strong heavens. 12 and placed in them a blazing lamp 13 and sent down abundant water from the clouds 14 so that We may thereby bring forth grain and vegetation, 15 And gardens of thick foliage. 16 Indeed the Day of Decision is a time fixed. 17 On that day the trumpet will be sounded and you will come (to Us) in huge groups. 18 and heaven is opened, having gates, 19 and the mountains move, and vaporize. 20 Hell will lie in wait (for its prey). 21 a resort for the rebellious; 22 They will abide therein for ages, 23 They will not feel cold nor taste any drink 24 Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold, 25 An appropriate recompense. 26 Behold, they were not expecting to be called to account, 27 and they rejected outright Our signs; 28 and everything We have numbered in a Book. 29 So taste (the fruit of your deeds). We shall only increase your torment. 30
