۞ Concerning what are they disputing? 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 Yes, indeed, before long they will learn all about it. 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 and raised the mountains like supporting poles? 7 And it is We who created you in pairs. 8 And made sleep for you to rest, 9 and We appointed night for a garment, 10 And made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And We have builded over you seven strong heavens. 12 And made [therein] a burning lamp 13 and have sent down from the clouds, pouring rain 14 so that We may bring forth thereby grain and a variety of plants, 15 and luxuriant gardens. 16 Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 The Day that the Trumpet shall be sounded, and ye shall come forth in crowds; 18 And the heaven is opened and will become gateways 19 The mountains put in motion turning into a mirage. 20 Indeed, Gehenna (Hell) has become an ambush, 21 a resort for the rebellious; 22 for the rebellious ones and they will live therein for ages. 23 They will not taste therein cool or any drink. 24 Except boiling water, and dirty wound discharges. 25 for a suitable recompense. 26 for they never expected to be called to account, 27 and they absolutely belied Our verses, 28 And everything have We recorded in a Book. 29 'Taste! We shall increase you not save in chastisement.' 30
