۞ About what are they asking one another? 1 Of the mighty tiding 2 concerning which they are in disagreement! 3 No! They are going to know. 4 Then, no! They are going to know. 5 Have We not made the earth an expanse. 6 and the mountains as pegs (to anchor the earth)? 7 And We have created you in pairs, 8 and We made your sleep a rest, 9 and made the night [its] cloak 10 And We have made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And We have builded over you seven strong heavens. 12 and placed in them a blazing lamp 13 and sent down abundant water from the clouds 14 to make the seeds, plants, 15 And gardens of entwined growth. 16 Surely, the Day of Judgement has an appointed time. 17 the Day that the Horn is blown, and you shall come in crowds 18 The heavens will be opened wide and turn into so many doors, 19 and the mountains move, and vaporize. 20 Hell will lie in wait (for its prey). 21 a goal for all who are wont to transgress the bounds of what is right! 22 In it shall they remain for a long time. 23 They shall not taste therein cool nor drink 24 save boiling water and wash of the wounds; 25 , A fitting reward. 26 Indeed, they did not hope for a Reckoning, 27 And rejected Our signs as lies. 28 And everything have We recorded in a Book. 29 "So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in Punishment." 30
