The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
۞ What do they quarrel about? 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 About which they cannot agree. 3 No indeed; they shall soon know! 4 Again, indeed, they shall know! 5 Have We not made the earth as a cradle 6 The mountains tent-pins? 7 And We created you in pairs, 8 and We appointed your sleep for a rest; 9 And We made the night to be a covering, 10 And We made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments, 12 And placed a lamp therein brightly burning. 13 From the rain clouds We send waters pouring down in abundance, 14 In order to produce grain and plants with it. 15 And gardens of thick growth. 16 Lo! the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 the day the Trumpet is blown, and you shall come in troops, 18 And the heaven is opened and becometh as gates, 19 and the mountains move, and vaporize. 20 Surely the Hell is an ambush, 21 a return for the insolent, 22 They will abide therein for ages. 23 They will neither taste anything cool in it, nor anything to drink. 24 except boiling water and pus 25 a befitting recompense for their deeds. 26 Surely they feared not the account, 27 and roundly denied Our Signs as false. 28 Everything have We recorded in a Book. 29 [And 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
