The News (Al-Naba')
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
۞ Of what do they question one another? 1 About the great news - 2 Concerning which they differ. 3 No! They are going to know. 4 Again, no indeed; they shall soon know! 5 Did We not make the earth a spreading, 6 and raised the mountains like supporting poles? 7 And We have created you in pairs; 8 And made your sleep [a means for] rest 9 And made the night as clothing 10 and We appointed day for a livelihood. 11 and built above you seven strong firmaments, 12 And We have set therein lamps glowing. 13 And from the wind-driven clouds We send down waters pouring in abundance, 14 That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation 15 And dense gardens. 16 Surely, the Day of Judgement has an appointed time. 17 The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes 18 and heaven is opened, having gates, 19 And the mountains shall be moved away from their places and they will be as if they were a mirage. 20 [On that Day,] verily, hell will lie in wait [for those who deny the truth] 21 For the transgressors, a place of return, 22 In which they will remain for ages [unending]. 23 tasting neither coolness nor any drink 24 Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold, 25 a meet requital [for their sins]! 26 Indeed they had no fear of the account. 27 and they absolutely belied Our verses, 28 And all things We have recorded in a Book. 29 'Taste! We shall not increase you except in punishment' 30
