The Snatchers (Al-Naze'aat)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By those that pluck out vehemently 1 and those that blow gently, 2 and float [through space] with floating serene, 3 Then those who are foremost going ahead, 4 And those who govern the event, 5 On the Day when a violent convulsion will convulse [the world], 6 And the second followeth it, 7 Hearts that Day will be in agitation; 8 While eyes are downcast 9 They say: 'What, are we being restored as we were before, 10 “When we have become decayed bones?” 11 and they say, "That indeed would be a losing return." 12 Surely it will need but one shout, 13 and behold! They will all come out in the open. 14 Has there reached you the story of Moses? - 15 Lo! His Sustainer called out to him in the twice-hallowed valley: 16 and directed him: “Go to Pharaoh, he has rebelled, 17 And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace)? 18 "'And that I guide thee to thy Lord, so thou shouldst fear Him?'" 19 And thereupon he [went to Pharaoh and] made him aware of the great wonder [of God's grace]. 20 But he denied and disobeyed, 21 Then he turned his back, striving hard (against Allah). 22 Then he gathered his people and cried aloud, 23 “I am the supreme lord of you all.” 24 But Allah did punish him, (and made an) example of him, - in the Hereafter, as in this life. 25 Verily herein is lesson for him who feareth. 26
