| | Ahmed Hulusi rendition of Surah The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection(al-Qiyamah) --- |
---|
75:1 | | By the reality of the Doomsday; |
75:2 | | And the self-accusing self (nafs-i lawwama); |
75:3 | | Does man think We will not assemble his bones? |
75:4 | | Indeed! We even have the power to proportion his fingertips (produce a precise reformation of his fingerprints)! |
75:5 | | But no! Man goes to excess despite what awaits him (life after death)! |
75:6 | | They ask, “When is the time of Doomsday (the experience of death)? |
75:7 | | When your vision is dazzled, |
75:8 | | And the Moon is eclipsed, |
75:9 | | And when the Sun and the Moon come together! |
75:10 | | At that time, man will say, “Where can we escape?” |
75:11 | | No, there is no place of refuge (outside)! |
75:12 | | At that time, the permanent settlement (of every individual) is with his Rabb! |
75:13 | | At that time, man will be told of all the things he put forward (accomplished) and left behind (postponed, failed to do). |
75:14 | | (The truth is) man is the evaluator of his own self! (Remember 17:14 “Read your book [knowledge] of life! Sufficient for you is your individual consciousness at this stage to discern the consequences of your actions.”) |
75:15 | | Whatever excuse he presents (it will make no difference)! |
75:16 | | Do not repeat it with your tongue to hasten (its memorization). |
75:17 | | Indeed, upon Us is its compilation and its recitation. |
75:18 | | So when We recite it, follow its recitation! |
75:19 | | Then upon Us is its clarification (disclosure). |
75:20 | | But no! You love the immediate (the world); |
75:21 | | And leave the eternal life to come! |
75:22 | | At that time faces will shine. |
75:23 | | Looking at their Rabb. |
75:24 | | And many faces at that time will be frowning! |
75:25 | | They (with frowning faces) will feel their backs breaking... |
75:26 | | No! When the life reaches the collarbones; |
75:27 | | “Who will save him from death?” |
75:28 | | He will know with certainty that it is the time of the known separation! |
75:29 | | And the feet will be intertwined! |
75:30 | | To your Rabb will be the dispatch at that time! |
75:31 | | For he neither confirmed, nor established salat (turned to his Rabb)... |
75:32 | | But denied and turned away! |
75:33 | | And then went back to his people full of pride and arrogance. |
75:34 | | Deserving you are, deserving you are! |
75:35 | | Again, deserving you are, yes deserving you are! |
75:36 | | Does man think he will be left to his own accord? |
75:37 | | Was he not once a drop of sperm? |
75:38 | | Which then became a clot (genetic structure), and (Allah) created him and proportioned him (according to his creational purpose). |
75:39 | | And made of him two partners, the male (consciousness – active energy) and the female (the body – the receptive energy). |
75:40 | | Is this (the system and order of Allah who made all of this) not Qadir to give life to the dead? |
