| | Syed Vickar Ahamed rendition of Surah Those Who Drag Forth, Soul-snatchers, Those Who Pulled Out(an-Nazi`at) --- |
---|
79:1 | | By the (angels) who tear out (the soul of the wicked, from its depths) with great force |
79:2 | | By those who gently draw out (the soul of the blessed) |
79:3 | | And by those who move along (the path of mercy) |
79:4 | | Then move swiftly as if they were in a race |
79:5 | | Then arrange (themselves) to complete (the Commands of Allah)&mdash |
79:6 | | One Day, when everything that can be improper will be in violent shock |
79:7 | | Followed by often repeated (shocks) |
79:8 | | That Day, hearts will be trembling with fear |
79:9 | | The eyes (of men) will be looking down |
79:10 | | (Now) they say: "What! Shall we really be returned to (our) former state |
79:11 | | "What! When we shall have become rotten bones |
79:12 | | They say: "In that case, it will be a return with loss!" |
79:13 | | But surely, there will be a single (far reaching) cry |
79:14 | | And then watch! They will be (completely) awake (to receive Judgment) |
79:15 | | Has the story of Musa (Moses) reached you |
79:16 | | Listen, your Lord called out to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa:&mdash |
79:17 | | "You go to Firon (Pharaoh), because he has indeed exceeded all limits |
79:18 | | "And say to him: ‘Would you (wish) that you should be purified (from sin) |
79:19 | | "‘And that I guide you to your Lord, so you should fear Him?’&rdquo |
79:20 | | Then (Musa, Moses) showed him the great Sign |
79:21 | | But (Firon) rejected it and disobeyed (the guidance) |
79:22 | | Also, he turned his back, working hard (against Allah) |
79:23 | | Then he collected (his men) and made a (false) claim |
79:24 | | Saying, "I am your lord, most high," |
79:25 | | But Allah punished him, (and made) him an example— In the Hereafter, and in this life |
79:26 | | Surely, in this (instance) is a warning with guidance for those who fear (Allah) |
79:27 | | What! Are you (men) more difficult to make than the heaven (that Allah) has created |
79:28 | | High above has He raised its cover, and He has given it order and perfection |
79:29 | | At night He grants its darkness and its brightness He brings out (with light) |
79:30 | | And more, He has extended the earth (far and wide also in the shape of an egg) |
79:31 | | He draws out its moisture from there and its grazing lands |
79:32 | | And the mountains He has firmly fixed&mdash |
79:33 | | For use and benefit to you and your cattle |
79:34 | | Therefore, when the great and fearful (event) comes |
79:35 | | The Day when man shall remember all what he struggled for |
79:36 | | And the Fire of Hell shall be placed in full sight for (everyone) to see&mdash |
79:37 | | Then for those that had exceeded all limits |
79:38 | | And (those who) had liked the life of this world |
79:39 | | The home will be the Fire of Hell |
79:40 | | And for those who had felt the fear of standing before their (Almighty) Lord and had restrained (their) souls from lowly desires |
79:41 | | Their home will be the Garden |
79:42 | | They will ask you (O Prophet) about the Hour— "When will be its appointed time?" |
79:43 | | How are you (even included) in the announcement of its time |
79:44 | | Your Lord (Alone) knows the limit fixed for it |
79:45 | | You are only a warner for those who fear it |
79:46 | | The Day when they see it, (it will be) as if they had waited for it a single evening, or the following morning |
