The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
۞ What do they question each other about! 1 About the awesome tiding [of resurrection,] 2 that they are in utter disagreement? 3 Verily, they shall soon (come to) know! 4 Again, no indeed; they shall soon know! 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse, 6 and the mountains as pegs? 7 and created you in pairs (as men and women), 8 and made your sleep a means of repose, 9 made the night as a covering, 10 and the day as time for you to make a living? 11 And We built above you seven strong ones, 12 And placed a lamp therein brightly burning. 13 and sent down abundant water from the clouds 14 That We may produce from it grain and vegetation, 15 and luxuriant gardens. 16 Surely a time is fixed for the Day of Judgement. 17 On that day the trumpet will be sounded and you will come (to Us) in huge groups. 18 And the heaven will have been opened, and it will have become doors. 19 and the mountains move, and vaporize. 20 Behold, Gehenna has become an ambush, 21 For the exorbitant a receptacle. 22 where they shall remain for ages, 23 They will not feel cold nor taste any drink 24 except boiling water and pus, 25 An appropriate recompense. 26 Surely they feared not the account, 27 And they denied Our signs to the extreme. 28 and everything We have numbered in a Book. 29 Taste therefore. We shall not increase you in aught but torment. 30
