۞ Of what do they ask one another? 1 (It is) of the awful tidings, 2 That over which they are in disagreement. 3 Indeed they will come to know soon; 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 created you in pairs 8 And have made your sleep as a thing for rest. 9 and the night as a cover, 10 And made the day as a means of subsistence? 11 We raised over you several secure (skies), 12 (the sun) as a shining torch 13 And We sent down rain from water-laden clouds pouring in torrents 14 so that We may thereby bring forth grain and vegetation, 15 And gardens thick with trees. 16 The Day of Judgment will certainly be the final appointment. 17 the day the Trumpet is blown, and you shall come in troops, 18 And the heavens shall be opened as if there were doors, 19 And the hills are set in motion and become as a mirage. 20 Truly Hell is as a place of ambush, 21 A home for the rebellious. 22 Living therein for ages. 23 They will not feel cold nor taste any drink 24 only burning despair and ice-cold darkness: 25 Recompense fitted! 26 They were those who did not expect a reckoning, 27 But they belied Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, and that which Our Prophet (Peace be upon him) brought) completely. 28 And all things We have recorded in a Book. 29 Therefore taste it now – We shall not increase anything for you except the punishment. 30
