۞ What are they questioning each other about? 1 About the great tidings! 2 concerning which they are in disagreement! 3 Nay! they shall soon come to know 4 Surely, they will soon find out the truth! 5 Have We not made the earth a resting place? 6 And the mountains as pegs? 7 And We have created you in pairs. 8 and We made your sleep a rest, 9 and We appointed night for a garment, 10 And have appointed the day for livelihood. 11 And We have built above you seven strong (heavens), 12 and have placed [therein the sun,] a lamp full of blazing splendour. 13 and sent down abundant water from the clouds 14 That We may produce therewith corn and vegetables, 15 and gardens luxuriant. 16 Verily, the Day of Decision is a fixed time, 17 The day the trumpet blast is sounded you will come in hordes; 18 And the heaven shall be opened, and it will become as gates, 19 and the mountains will be set in motion and become a mirage. 20 Truly, Hell is a place of ambush, 21 A dwelling place for the Taghun (those who transgress the boundry limits set by Allah like polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, hyprocrites, sinners, criminals, etc.), 22 They will abide therein for ages. 23 They will neither taste anything cool in it, nor anything to drink. 24 save boiling water and pus 25 Reward proportioned (to their evil deeds). 26 For lo! they looked not for a reckoning; 27 And they belied Our revelations with strong belying. 28 but We have recorded everything in a Book. 29 Therefore taste it now – We shall not increase anything for you except the punishment. 30
