۞ Nay, I swear by the setting of the stars -- 75 (and that is indeed a mighty oath, did you but know it) 76 that this is an honorable Quran 77 in a Book protected (from tampering) 78 which none shall touch except the purified; 79 a sending down from the Lord of all Being. 80 Is it this discourse that ye hold lightly? 81 and make it your daily bread [as it were] to call the truth a lie? 82 Why, but when the soul leaps to the throat of the dying 83 and you are watching at that time 84 And We are nigher unto him than ye are, but ye behold not 85 why, then, if [you think that] you are not truly dependent [on Us,] 86 Do ye not force it back, if ye are truthful? 87 Then if the dying one is of those having proximity, – 88 happiness [awaits him in the life to come,] and inner fulfillment, and a garden of bliss. 89 And if he is of those on the right hand, 90 Then: peace unto thee, for thou art of those on the right hand. 91 But if one happens to be of those who are wont to call the truth a lie, and [thus] go astray, 92 a welcome of burning despair [awaits him in the life to come,] 93 and will be scorched by the Fire. 94 Verily this! this is the very truth. 95 So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great. 96
