The Snatchers (Al-Naze'aat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By those [angels] who extract with violence 1 And those who undo the bonds gently, 2 And who glide with ease. 3 and the outstrippers (angels), outstripping, 4 Then those who regulate the affair. 5 On the Day (when the first blowing of the Trumpet is blown), the earth and the mountains will shake violently (and everybody will die), 6 and will be followed by another quaking. 7 (Some) hearts that Day will shake with fear and anxiety. 8 Their eyes humbled. 9 (The disbelievers) say, "Shall we be brought back to life again 10 “When we have become decayed bones?” 11 They will say: 'Then we are returned lost' 12 So that is not but a single shout. 13 and behold! They will all come out in the open. 14 Hath there come unto thee the story of Musa! 15 Lo! His Sustainer called out to him in the twice-hallowed valley: 16 That “Go to Firaun – he has rebelled.” 17 And say to him, "Would you like to reform yourself? 18 And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear. 19 So he showed him the greater sign; 20 but he cried lies, and rebelled, 21 and then he turned back to have recourse to his craftiness, 22 And assembled (his council) and proclaimed, 23 Then he said: I am your lord, the most high. 24 Thereupon Allah seized him for the chastisement of the World to Come as well as of the present. 25 Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears. 26
