IslamAwakened.com Qur'an Tafsir of Surah al-Waqi`ah - The Event, The Inevitable, That Which is Coming as rendered by Ali Bakhtiari Nejad
56:1
When the event happens
56:2
and its happening is not false
56:3
it is lowering and elevating (humiliating and honoring)
56:4
When the earth is violently shaken
56:5
and the mountains are totally disintegrate
56:6
and become scattered dust
56:7
And you will be three types
56:8
The associates of happiness (the fortunate people). Who are the fortunate people
56:9
The associates of misery (the unfortunate people). Who are the unfortunate people
56:10
And the pioneers (in devotion) are the pioneers (in the hereafter)
56:11
They are the close ones (to God)
56:12
in gardens of delight
56:13
A large number of the earlier one
56:14
and a few from the later ones
56:15
On sofas lavishly decorated (with jewels and gold)
56:16
reclining on them, facing each other
56:17
Immortal youths circulate among them
56:18
with drinking glasses and jugs and cups of spring water
56:19
They do not get headache and they do not get exhausted (and drunk) from it
56:20
And from whatever fruits they choose
56:21
and from whatever meat of birds they desire
56:22
and appealing girls with beautiful eye
56:23
like the hidden pearl (inside the shell)
56:24
as a reward for what they used to do
56:25
They do not hear useless or sinful (talk) in it
56:26
except a saying of peace (and well-being), peace (and well-being)
56:27
And the associates of the right hand (the fortunate), who are the fortunate?
56:28
Among thorn free Lote (Sidra) tree
56:29
and banana trees piled up (with fruits)
56:30
and extended shade
56:31
and flowing water
56:32
and plenty of fruits
56:33
not ending and not forbidden
56:34
And dignified spouse
56:35
whom We created them perfectly
56:36
and We made them virgins
56:37
devoted (and loving), of equal ag
56:38
for associates of the right hand (the fortunate)
56:39
a large number of the earlier one
56:40
and a large number of the later ones
56:41
And associates of the left hand (the unfortunate), who are the unfortunate
56:42
In scorching wind and boiling water
56:43
and shade of thick (black) smoke
56:44
not cool and not nice
56:45
Indeed they were rich (and wealthy) before this
56:46
and they insisted on the great sin
56:47
and they used to say: would we be raised when we die and become dust and bones
56:48
Or our forefathers
56:49
Say: indeed the earlier ones and the later one
56:50
are certainly collected at an appointment of a known day
56:51
Then indeed you, the misguided deniers
56:52
are certainly eaters of Zaqqum tree
56:53
and filling the stomachs from it
56:54
then drinking boiling water over it
56:55
and drinking as thirsty camels drink
56:56
This is their entertainment on the judgment day
56:57
We created you, so why do you not acknowledge?
56:58
What do you think of what you ejaculate
56:59
Do you create it or are We the creators
56:60
We mandated the death among you, and We will not be surpasse
56:61
in replacing (you with) the likes of you and producing you in (a form) that you do not know.
56:62
You have certainly known about the first creation, so why do you not take notice
56:63
What do you think of what you plant
56:64
Do you grow it, or are We the growers
56:65
If We want, We make it into broken pieces, and leave you wondering
56:66
(saying): we certainly suffered losses
56:67
no, but we are deprived.
56:68
What do you think of the water that you drink
56:69
Did you send it down from the cloud, or are We the senders
56:70
If We want, We make it bitter (and salty), so why are you not thankful
56:71
What do you think of the fire that you light
56:72
Did you make its tree, or are We the makers
56:73
We made it a reminder and a provision for those living/traveling in the desert
56:74
So glorify the name of your great Master
56:75
So I swear by positions of the stars
56:76
and it is a great oath if you knew
56:77
indeed this is a noble Qura
56:78
in a concealed book
56:79
none touch it except the purified ones
56:80
a sending down from the Master of Human kind
56:81
Do you take this saying lightly
56:82
and you make it your livelihood to deny it
56:83
So why not when it (life) reaches the throa
56:84
and you are watching at that moment
56:85
while We are closer to him than you but you do not see
56:86
then if you are not obligated, why don'
56:87
you return it (the soul to the body), if you are truthful
56:88
But if he is one of the close ones (to God)
56:89
then ease and comfort and gardens of delight (are for him)
56:90
And if he is among associates of the right hand (the fortunate)
56:91
then peace (and well-being) for you among associates of the right hand
56:92
And if he is among the misguided denier
56:93
then entertainment of boiling water
56:94
and entering (and burning in) hellfire (is for him)
56:95
And this is indeed the sure truth
56:96
So glorify the name of your great Master
