|---|
| 75:1 | | Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection |
| 75:2 | | Nay, I swear by the accusing soul (that this Scripture is true) |
| 75:3 | | Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones |
| 75:4 | | Yea, verily. We are Able to restore his very fingers |
| 75:5 | | But man would fain deny what is before him |
| 75:6 | | He asketh: When will be this Day of Resurrection |
| 75:7 | | But when sight is confounde |
| 75:8 | | And the moon is eclipse |
| 75:9 | | And sun and moon are united |
| 75:10 | | On that day man will cry: Whither to flee |
| 75:11 | | Alas! No refuge |
| 75:12 | | Unto thy Lord is the recourse that day |
| 75:13 | | On that day man is told the tale of that which he hath sent before and left behind |
| 75:14 | | Oh, but man is a telling witness against himself |
| 75:15 | | Although he tender his excuses |
| 75:16 | | Stir not thy tongue herewith to hasten it |
| 75:17 | | Lo! upon Us (resteth) the putting together thereof and the reading thereof |
| 75:18 | | And when We read it, follow thou the reading |
| 75:19 | | Then lo! upon Us (resteth) the explanation thereof |
| 75:20 | | Nay, but ye do love the fleeting No |
| 75:21 | | And neglect the Hereafter |
| 75:22 | | That day will faces be resplendent |
| 75:23 | | Looking toward their Lord |
| 75:24 | | And that day will other faces be despondent |
| 75:25 | | Thou wilt know that some great disaster is about to fall on them |
| 75:26 | | Nay, but when the life cometh up to the throa |
| 75:27 | | And men say: Where is the wizard (who can save him now) |
| 75:28 | | And he knoweth that it is the parting |
| 75:29 | | And agony is heaped on agony |
| 75:30 | | Unto thy Lord that day will be the driving |
| 75:31 | | For he neither trusted, nor prayed |
| 75:32 | | But he denied and flouted |
| 75:33 | | Then went he to his folk with glee |
| 75:34 | | Nearer unto thee and nearer |
| 75:35 | | Again nearer unto thee and nearer (is the doom) |
| 75:36 | | Thinketh man that he is to be left aimless |
| 75:37 | | Was he not a drop of fluid which gushed forth |
| 75:38 | | Then he became a clot; then (Allah) shaped and fashione |
| 75:39 | | And made of him a pair, the male and female |
| 75:40 | | Is not He (Who doeth so) Able to bring the dead to life |
