| | Mir Aneesuddin rendition of Surah Those Who Drag Forth, Soul-snatchers, Those Who Pulled Out(an-Nazi`at) --- |
---|
79:1 | | By those who pull out getting drowned (going deep to the last limit), |
79:2 | | and those who untie, releasing, |
79:3 | | and those who are busy moving swiftly, |
79:4 | | then those who are ahead, being ahead, |
79:5 | | then those who manage the affair : |
79:6 | | On the day the quaking one (the earth) will quake |
79:7 | | and the succeeding one will follow it , |
79:8 | | on that day hearts will palpitate, |
79:9 | | their looks will be cast down. |
79:10 | | They say, “Shall we be restored to our first state, |
79:11 | | even when we have become rotten bones?” |
79:12 | | They say, “Then this would be a return of loss.” |
79:13 | | So it will only be a single shout, |
79:14 | | when they will be awake. |
79:15 | | Has the story of Musa come to you? |
79:16 | | When his Fosterer called him in the holy valley of Tuwa (saying): |
79:17 | | Go to Firawn, he has certainly rebelled, |
79:18 | | then say to him, “ Have you the inclination to purify yourself, |
79:19 | | and that I should guide you to your Fosterer, so that you fear (Him)?” |
79:20 | | Then he showed him the great sign, |
79:21 | | but he denied and disobeyed, |
79:22 | | then he turned away in haste, |
79:23 | | then he gathered to proclaim, |
79:24 | | then said, “I am your top most fosterer.” |
79:25 | | So Allah caught him for punishment (both in) the later and the former (life). |
79:26 | | There is certainly a lesson in that for one who fears. |
79:27 | | Are you the stronger in creation or the sky which He built? |
79:28 | | He raised its height and then set it in equilibrium. |
79:29 | | And He darkened its night and brought out its day light. |
79:30 | | And He stretched out the earth (drifting the continents apart), after that, |
79:31 | | brought out from the (earth) its water and its pasture, |
79:32 | | and He firmly anchored the mountains. |
79:33 | | A provision for you and for your cattle. |
79:34 | | So when the great predominating calamity comes, |
79:35 | | the day man will recollect what he earnestly strove after. |
79:36 | | And the hell will be made manifest for him who sees. |
79:37 | | So as for him who rebelled |
79:38 | | and preferred the life of this world, |
79:39 | | then hell will certainly be his home. |
79:40 | | And as for him who feared to stand before his Fosterer and restrained himself from evil desire, |
79:41 | | then the garden will certainly be his home. |
79:42 | | They ask you about the hour of doom, “When will be its anchorage (time of happening) ?” |
79:43 | | In what way are you to discuss it ? |
79:44 | | To your Fosterer (belongs the knowledge of) the ultimate time of its happening. |
79:45 | | You are a warner only for him who fears it. |
79:46 | | The day they see it, for them it will be as if they had not stayed (in their graves or this world) except for an evening or a morning of it. |
