| 75:1 | | No! I swear by the Day of Resurrection |
| 75:2 | | No! I swear by the reproachful soul |
| 75:3 | | What, does man reckon We shall not gather his bones |
| 75:4 | | Yes indeed; We are able to shape again his fingers |
| 75:5 | | Nay, but man desires to continue on as a libertine |
| 75:6 | | asking, 'When shall be the Day of Resurrection? |
| 75:7 | | But when the sight is daze |
| 75:8 | | and the moon is eclipsed |
| 75:9 | | and the sun and moon are brought together |
| 75:10 | | upon that day man shall say, 'Whither to flee? |
| 75:11 | | No indeed; not a refuge |
| 75:12 | | Upon that day the recourse shall be to thy Lord |
| 75:13 | | Upon that day man shall be told his former deeds and his latter |
| 75:14 | | nay, man shall be a clear proof against himself |
| 75:15 | | even though he offer his excuses |
| 75:16 | | Move not thy tongue with it to hasten it |
| 75:17 | | Ours it is to gather it, and to recite it |
| 75:18 | | So, when We recite it, follow thou its recitation |
| 75:19 | | Then Ours it is to explain it |
| 75:20 | | No indeed; but you love the hasty world |
| 75:21 | | and leave be the Hereafter |
| 75:22 | | Upon that day faces shall be radiant |
| 75:23 | | gazing upon their Lord |
| 75:24 | | and upon that day faces shall be scowling |
| 75:25 | | thou mightest think the Calamity has been wreaked on them |
| 75:26 | | No indeed; when it reaches the clavicle |
| 75:27 | | and it is said, 'Who is an enchanter? |
| 75:28 | | and he thinks that it is the partin |
| 75:29 | | and leg is intertwined with leg |
| 75:30 | | upon that day unto thy Lord shall be the driving |
| 75:31 | | For he confirmed it not, and did not pray |
| 75:32 | | but he cried it lies, and he turned away |
| 75:33 | | then he went to his household arrogantly |
| 75:34 | | Nearer to thee and neare |
| 75:35 | | then nearer to thee and nearer |
| 75:36 | | What, does man reckon he shall be left to roam at will |
| 75:37 | | Was he not a sperm-drop spilled |
| 75:38 | | Then he was a blood-clot, and He created and formed |
| 75:39 | | and He made of him two kinds, male and female |
| 75:40 | | What, is He not able to quicken the dead |
