Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ When the inevitable event takes place, 1 Then will no (soul) entertain falsehood concerning its coming. 2 abasing [some,] exalting [others]! 3 When the earth is shaken 4 and the mountains crumbled, 5 And become dust dispersing. 6 And ye will be three kinds: 7 So those on the right – how (fortunate) are those on the right! 8 Then those of the left hand -- how (unhappy) will be those of the left hand! 9 And those Foremost (in Faith) will be Foremost (in the Hereafter). 10 those are they brought near (to their Lord) 11 In gardens of bliss [will they dwell] 12 A multitude of those of old 13 And a few from those of later times. 14 On thrones woven [with ornament], 15 Reclining on them, facing one another. 16 immortal youths shall go about them 17 Carrying bowls and pitchers – and cups filled with wine flowing before them. 18 Whereby there shall be neither headiness nor will they be inebriated. 19 And fruits that they may like. 20 Bird meats that they relish, 21 They will have maidens with large, lovely black and white eyes, 22 Like pearls within their shells, 23 Reward for what they used to do. 24 They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin - 25 All talk will be sound and upright. 26 As for the people of the right hand, how happy they will be! 27 (will be) among thornless Lote trees. 28 Bananatrees, piled 29 And shade extended 30 and flowing water, 31 and abundant fruits, 32 Neither intercepted nor forbidden, 33 And raised couches; 34 Verily We! We have created those maidens by a creation. 35 and We made them spotless virgins, 36 loving companions, matching in age, 37 For those on the right. 38
