The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
۞ About what are they asking one another? 1 Is it about the awesome tiding 2 That over which they are in disagreement. 3 Surely yes, they will soon come to know! 4 Nay, again, they will come to know! 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 and the mountains as pegs? 7 We created you in pairs, 8 and gave you repose in sleep, 9 and made the night a covering, 10 and made the day to seek livelihood, 11 And We have built above you seven strong ones, 12 and We appointed a blazing lamp 13 and have sent down out of the rainclouds water cascading 14 That We may produce therewith corn and vegetables, 15 And gardens of thick growth. 16 Indeed the Day of Decision is a time fixed. 17 the Day when the Trumpet shall be blown, and you will come forth in multitudes; 18 The heavens will have openings like doors. 19 And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage. 20 Truly Hell is as a place of 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 therein they shall abide for ages, 23 Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink, 24 But boiling and intensely cold water, 25 for a suitable recompense. 26 They did not expect such a Judgment 27 and they rejected outright Our signs; 28 and everything We have numbered in a Book. 29 Taste therefore. We shall not increase you in aught but torment. 30
