| 79:1 | | By the forceful charger |
| 79:2 | | raring to go |
| 79:3 | | sweeping ahead at full stretch |
| 79:4 | | overtaking swiftl |
| 79:5 | | to bring the matter to an end |
| 79:6 | | on the Day when the blast reverberate |
| 79:7 | | and the second blast follows |
| 79:8 | | hearts will trembl |
| 79:9 | | and eyes will be downcast |
| 79:10 | | They say, ‘What? shall we be brought back to life |
| 79:11 | | after we have turned into decayed bones?’ and they say |
| 79:12 | | ‘Such a return is impossible!&rsquo |
| 79:13 | | But all it will take is a single blast |
| 79:14 | | and they will be back above ground |
| 79:15 | | Have you [Prophet] heard the story of Moses |
| 79:16 | | His Lord called out to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa |
| 79:17 | | ‘Go to Pharaoh, for he has exceeded all bounds |
| 79:18 | | and ask him, “Do you want to purify yourself [of sin] |
| 79:19 | | Do you want me to guide you to your Lord, so that you may hold Him in awe?” &rsquo |
| 79:20 | | Moses showed him the great sign |
| 79:21 | | but he denied it and refused [the faith] |
| 79:22 | | He turned away and hastil |
| 79:23 | | gathered his people, proclaiming |
| 79:24 | | ‘I am your supreme lord,&rsquo |
| 79:25 | | so God condemned him to punishment in the life to come as well as in this life |
| 79:26 | | there truly is a lesson in this for anyone who stands in awe of God |
| 79:27 | | Which is harder to create: you people or the sky that He built |
| 79:28 | | raising it high and perfecting it |
| 79:29 | | giving darkness to its night and bringing out its morning brightness |
| 79:30 | | and the earth, too, He spread out |
| 79:31 | | bringing waters and pastures out of it |
| 79:32 | | and setting firm mountains [in it] |
| 79:33 | | for you and your animals to enjoy |
| 79:34 | | When the great overwhelming event arrive |
| 79:35 | | on the Day that man remembers what he has don |
| 79:36 | | and Hell is there for all to see |
| 79:37 | | for anyone who has transgresse |
| 79:38 | | and preferred the present lif |
| 79:39 | | Hell will be home |
| 79:40 | | for anyone who feared the meeting with his Lord and restrained himself from base desires |
| 79:41 | | Paradise will be home |
| 79:42 | | They ask you [Prophet] about the Hour |
| 79:43 | | saying, ‘When will it arrive?’, but how can you tell [them that] |
| 79:44 | | Its time is known only to your Lord |
| 79:45 | | you are only sent to warn those who fear it |
| 79:46 | | On the Day they see it, it will seem they lingered [in this life] an evening [at most,] or its morning |
