۞ What are they questioning each other about? 1 About the great event, 2 Concerning which they are in disagreement. 3 But they will soon come to know. 4 Again, no indeed; they shall soon know! 5 Have We not made the earth a resting place? 6 And the mountains as stakes? 7 Have We not created you in pairs, 8 And made your sleep for rest, 9 And have appointed the night as a cloak, 10 And have made the day for livelihood. 11 We raised over you several secure (skies), 12 And We made a shining lamp, 13 and have sent down out of the rainclouds water cascading 14 That We may produce therewith corn and vegetations, 15 And gardens dense and luxuriant. 16 Indeed the Day of Decision is a time fixed. 17 the Day when the trumpet [of resurrection] is sounded and you all come forward in multitudes; 18 And the heaven will have been opened, and it will have become doors. 19 And the mountains will have been removed away, and they will have become as mirage. 20 Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait 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 remain in it for ages. 23 They will not taste therein cool or any drink. 24 Except scalding water and [foul] purulence - 25 A fitting recompense (for them). 26 For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds), 27 And they belied Our revelations with strong belying. 28 Everything have We recorded in a Book. 29 (They will be told), "Suffer, We shall only increase the torment for you". 30
