| | Faridul Haque rendition of Surah The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection(al-Qiyamah)
--- |
|---|
| 75:1 | | I swear by the Day of Resurrection |
| 75:2 | | And by oath of the soul that reproaches itself |
| 75:3 | | Does man assume that We will never assemble his bones |
| 75:4 | | Surely yes, why not? We can properly make all his phalanxes |
| 75:5 | | In fact man wishes to commit evil in front of Him |
| 75:6 | | He asks, “When will be the Day of Resurrection?&rdquo |
| 75:7 | | So when the eyes will be blinded by light |
| 75:8 | | And the moon will be eclipsed |
| 75:9 | | And the sun and the moon will be united |
| 75:10 | | On that day man will cry out, “Where shall I flee?&rdquo |
| 75:11 | | Never! There is no refuge |
| 75:12 | | On that day, the station is only towards your Lord |
| 75:13 | | On that day, man will be informed of all what he sent ahead and left behind |
| 75:14 | | In fact, man himself is keeping an eye on his state of affairs |
| 75:15 | | And even if he presents all the excuses he has, none will be listened to |
| 75:16 | | O dear Prophet (Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), do not cause your tongue to move along with the Qur’an in order to learn it faster |
| 75:17 | | Indeed assembling the Qur’an and reading it are upon Us |
| 75:18 | | So when We have read it, you should thereupon follow what is read |
| 75:19 | | Then indeed, to explain its details to you is upon Us |
| 75:20 | | None except you, O disbelievers – you love what you have, the fleeting one |
| 75:21 | | And you have forsaken the Hereafter |
| 75:22 | | On that day, some faces will shine with freshness |
| 75:23 | | Looking toward their Lord |
| 75:24 | | And on that day some faces will be ghastly |
| 75:25 | | Knowing that they will be subjected to a torment that breaks the backs |
| 75:26 | | Yes indeed, when the soul will reach up to the throat |
| 75:27 | | And they will say, “Is there any one – any magician?&rdquo |
| 75:28 | | And he will realise that this is the parting |
| 75:29 | | And one shin will curl up with the other shin |
| 75:30 | | On that day, the herding will be only towards your Lord |
| 75:31 | | Neither did he believe it to be true, nor did he offer the prayer |
| 75:32 | | But he denied and turned away |
| 75:33 | | Then he went back to his home in pride |
| 75:34 | | Your ruin has come close, still closer |
| 75:35 | | Again your ruin has come close, still closer |
| 75:36 | | Does man assume that he will be let loose |
| 75:37 | | Was he not just a drop of the semen that is discharged |
| 75:38 | | He then became a clot – so Allah created him, then made him proper |
| 75:39 | | So created from him a pair, the male and female |
| 75:40 | | So will He, Who has done all this, not be able to revive the dead |
