The News (Al-Naba')
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ What do they quarrel about? 1 About the great news - 2 whereupon they are at variance? 3 Nay, but they will come to know! 4 Again, indeed, they shall know! 5 Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse, 6 and raised the mountains like supporting poles? 7 We created you in pairs, 8 And made sleep for you to rest, 9 made the night as a covering, 10 and made the day for earning a livelihood. 11 And built seven strong roofs above you. 12 And We have set therein lamps glowing. 13 and sent down heavy rains from the clouds 14 so that We may bring forth thereby grain and a variety of plants, 15 and gardens luxuriant. 16 Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 The day when the Trumpet will be blown – you will therefore come forth in multitudes. 18 and heaven is opened, and become gates, 19 And the mountains will have been removed away, and they will have become as mirage. 20 Surely hell lies in wait, 21 A place of resort for the inordinate, 22 In which they will remain for ages [unending]. 23 Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink, 24 save boiling water and wash of the wounds; 25 Recompense fitted! 26 For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds), 27 And they denied Our signs to the extreme. 28 And We have recorded everything in a book, 29 Therefore taste it now – We shall not increase anything for you except the punishment. 30
