The News (Al-Naba')
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ Whereof do they question one another? 1 Concerning the Great News, 2 That over which they are in disagreement. 3 No! They are going to know. 4 And once again: Nay, but in time they will come to understand! 5 Have We not made the earth a resting place? 6 and the mountains as pegs (to anchor the earth)? 7 And We have created you in pairs; 8 And have made your sleep as a thing for rest. 9 and We made the night a mantle, 10 And made the day for livelihood 11 And We have built above you seven strong (heavens), 12 and We appointed a blazing lamp 13 And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water, 14 That We may produce from it grain and vegetation, 15 and gardens dense with follage. 16 Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time - 17 The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you shall come forth in hosts, 18 The heavens will have openings like doors. 19 And the mountains shall be moved off so that they shall remain a mere semblance. 20 Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait 21 a resort for the rebellious; 22 therein to tarry for ages, 23 Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink, 24 save boiling water and a stinking fluid -- 25 The reward to each is according to what he is. 26 Surely they feared not the account, 27 But they belied Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, and that which Our Prophet (Peace be upon him) brought) completely. 28 but We have placed on record every single thing [of what they did]. 29 [So We shall say], "Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil doings,] for now We shall bestow on you nothing but more and more suffering!" 30
