| | Talal A. Itani (new translation) rendition of Surah The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection(al-Qiyamah) --- |
---|
75:1 | | I swear by the Day of Resurrection |
75:2 | | And I swear by the blaming soul |
75:3 | | Does man think that We will not reassemble his bones |
75:4 | | Yes indeed; We are Able to reconstruct his fingertips |
75:5 | | But man wants to deny what is ahead of him |
75:6 | | He asks, 'When is the Day of Resurrection?' |
75:7 | | When vision is dazzled |
75:8 | | And the moon is eclipsed |
75:9 | | And the sun and the moon are joined together |
75:10 | | On that Day, man will say, 'Where is the escape?' |
75:11 | | No indeed! There is no refuge |
75:12 | | To your Lord on that Day is the settlement |
75:13 | | On that Day man will be informed of everything he put forward, and everything he left behind |
75:14 | | And man will be evidence against himself |
75:15 | | Even as he presents his excuses |
75:16 | | Do not wag your tongue with it, to hurry on with it |
75:17 | | Upon Us is its collection and its recitation |
75:18 | | Then, when We have recited it, follow its recitation |
75:19 | | Then upon Us is its explanation |
75:20 | | Alas, you love the fleeting life |
75:21 | | And you disregard the Hereafter |
75:22 | | Faces on that Day will be radiant |
75:23 | | Looking towards their Lord |
75:24 | | And faces on that Day will be gloomy |
75:25 | | Realizing that a back-breaker has befallen them |
75:26 | | Indeed, when it has reached the breast-bones |
75:27 | | And it is said, 'Who is the healer?' |
75:28 | | And He realizes that it is the parting |
75:29 | | And leg is entwined with leg |
75:30 | | To your Lord on that Day is the drive |
75:31 | | He neither believed nor prayed |
75:32 | | But he denied and turned away |
75:33 | | Then he went to his family, full of pride |
75:34 | | Woe to you; and woe |
75:35 | | Then again: Woe to you; and woe |
75:36 | | Does man think that he will be left without purpose |
75:37 | | Was he not a drop of ejaculated semen |
75:38 | | Then he became a clot. And He created and proportioned |
75:39 | | And made of him the two sexes, the male and the female |
75:40 | | Is He not Able to revive the dead |
