In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
۞ Whereof do they question one another? 1 (Is it) of the great announcement 2 whereupon they are at variance? 3 Indeed, they shall know! 4 Nay, again, but they will come to know! 5 Have We not made the earth as a cradle 6 And the mountains as pegs? 7 We created you in pairs, 8 And have appointed your sleep for repose, 9 and made the night a covering, 10 And made the day for seeking livelihood. 11 And We have built above you seven strong (heavens), 12 And placed (therein) a Light of Splendour? 13 And We send down from the clouds water pouring forth abundantly, 14 In order to produce grain and plants with it. 15 and thick gardens grow? 16 The Day of Judgment will certainly be the final appointment. 17 the Day that the Horn is blown, and you shall come in crowds 18 The heavens will be opened wide and turn into so many doors, 19 The mountains put in motion turning into a mirage. 20 Truly Hell is as a place of ambush, 21 a home for the transgressors, 22 for the rebellious ones and they will live therein for ages. 23 tasting therein neither coolness nor any drink 24 Save boiling water and a paralysing cold: 25 as a fitting recompense for their deeds. 26 They were those who did not expect a reckoning, 27 and roundly denied Our Signs as false. 28 and everything We have numbered in a Book. 29 So taste you (the results of your evil actions); no increase shall We give you, except in torment. 30
