77:1 | | By the loosed ones successivel |
77:2 | | storming tempestuousl |
77:3 | | by the scatterers scatterin |
77:4 | | and the severally severin |
77:5 | | and those hurling a reminde |
77:6 | | excusing or warning |
77:7 | | surely that which you are promised is about to fall |
77:8 | | When the stars shall be extinguished |
77:9 | | when heaven shall be spli |
77:10 | | when the mountains shall be scattere |
77:11 | | and when the Messengers' time is set |
77:12 | | to what day shall they be delayed |
77:13 | | To the Day of Decision |
77:14 | | And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Decision |
77:15 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:16 | | Did We not destroy the ancients |
77:17 | | and then follow them with the later folk |
77:18 | | So We serve the sinners |
77:19 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:20 | | Did We not create you of a mean water |
77:21 | | that We laid within a sure lodgin |
77:22 | | till a known term decreed |
77:23 | | We determined; excellent determiners are We |
77:24 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:25 | | Made We not the earth to be a housin |
77:26 | | for the living and for the dead |
77:27 | | Set We not therein soaring mountains? Sated you with sweetest water |
77:28 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:29 | | Depart to that you cried was lies |
77:30 | | Depart to a triple-massing shado |
77:31 | | unshading against the blazing flam |
77:32 | | that shoots sparks like dry faggots |
77:33 | | sparks like to golden herds |
77:34 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:35 | | This is the day they shall not spea |
77:36 | | neither be given leave, and excuse themselves |
77:37 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:38 | | 'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients |
77:39 | | if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me! |
77:40 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:41 | | Truly the godfearing shall dwell amid shades and fountains |
77:42 | | and such fruits as their hearts desire |
77:43 | | 'Eat and drink, with wholesome appetite, for that you were working. |
77:44 | | Even so do We recompense the good-doers |
77:45 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:46 | | 'Eat and take your joy a little; you are sinners! |
77:47 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:48 | | When it is said to them, 'Prostrate yourselves!' they prostrate not |
77:49 | | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies |
77:50 | | In what discourse after this will they believe |
