| | Ali Bakhtiari Nejad rendition of Surah The Event, The Inevitable, That Which is Coming(al-Waqi`ah)
--- |
|---|
| 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 |
