۞ Nay, I swear by the places of the stars - 75 And verily that is a mighty oath, if ye but knew! 76 That it is a Recitation honourable. 77 in a hidden Book 78 Only they can reach it who are clean (of mind). 79 A revelation from the Lord of the Worlds. 80 What, do you hold this discourse in disdain, 81 Do you make its denial your means of livelihood? 82 Why, then, when (the soul) cometh up to the throat (of the dying) 83 And ye are then looking on. 84 – at that moment when We are closer to him than you, although you do not see (Us) 85 if you are not subject to anyone's authority, 86 Cause ye it not to return, if ye say sooth? 87 Then, if he be of those brought nigh the Throne, 88 it will have rest, happiness, and a beautiful Paradise. 89 And if he was of the companions of the right, 90 Then: peace unto thee, for thou art of those on the right hand. 91 But, if he is of those who belied, and went astray, 92 He shall have an entertainment of boiling water, 93 And the roasting in Hell. 94 Surely this is the truth of certainty. 95 So exalt the Name of your Lord, the Great. 96
