56:1  When the great event comes to pass
56:2  There is no belying its coming to pass-
56:3  Abasing (one party), exalting (the other)
56:4  When the earth shall be shaken with a (severe) shaking
56:5  And the mountains shall be made to crumble with (an awful) crumbling
56:6  So that they shall be as scattered dust
56:7  And you shall be three sorts
56:8  Then (as to) the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand
56:9  And (as to) the companions of the left hand; how wretched are the companions of the left hand
56:10  And the foremost are the foremost
56:11  These are they who are drawn nigh (to Allah)
56:12  In the gardens of bliss
56:13  A numerous company from among the first
56:14  And a few from among the latter
56:15  On thrones decorated
56:16  Reclining on them, facing one another
56:17  Round about them shall go youths never altering in age
56:18  With goblets and ewers and a cup of pure drink
56:19  They shall not be affected with headache thereby, nor shall they get exhausted
56:20  And fruits such as they choose
56:21  And the flesh of fowl such as they desire
56:22  And pure, beautiful ones
56:23  The like of the hidden pearls
56:24  A reward for what they used to do
56:25  They shall not hear therein vain or sinful discourse
56:26  Except the word peace, peace
56:27  And the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand
56:28  Amid thornless lote-trees
56:29  And banana-trees (with fruits), one above another
56:30  And extended shade
56:31  And water flowing constantly
56:32  And abundant fruit
56:33  Neither intercepted nor forbidden
56:34  And exalted thrones
56:35  Surely We have made them to grow into a (new) growth
56:36  Then We have made them virgins
56:37  Loving, equals in age
56:38  For the sake of the companions of the right hand
56:39  A numerous company from among the first
56:40  And a numerous company from among the last
56:41  And those of the left hand, how wretched are those of the left hand
56:42  In hot wind and boiling water
56:43  And the shade of black smoke
56:44  Neither cool nor honorable
56:45  Surely they were before that made to live in ease and plenty
56:46  And they persisted in the great violation
56:47  And they used to say: What! when we die and have become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised
56:48  Or our fathers of yore
56:49  Say: The first and the last
56:50  Shall most surely be gathered together for the appointed hour of a known day
56:51  Then shall you, O you who err and call it a lie
56:52  Most surely eat of a tree of Zaqqoom
56:53  And fill (your) bellies with it
56:54  Then drink over it of boiling water
56:55  And drink as drinks the thirsty camel
56:56  This is their entertainment on the day of requital
56:57  We have created you, why do you not then assent
56:58  Have you considered the seed
56:59  Is it you that create it or are We the creators
56:60  We have ordained death among you and We are not to be overcome
56:61  In order that We may bring in your place the likes of you and make you grow into what you know not
56:62  And certainly you know the first growth, why do you not then mind
56:63  Have you considered what you sow
56:64  Is it you that cause it to grow, or are We the causers of growth
56:65  If We pleased, We should have certainly made it broken down into pieces, then would you begin tb lament
56:66  Surely we are burdened with debt
56:67  Nay! we are deprived
56:68  Have you considered the water which you drink
56:69  Is it you that send it down from the clouds, or are We the senders
56:70  If We pleased, We would have made it salty; why do you not then give thanks
56:71  Have you considered the fire which you strike
56:72  Is it you that produce the trees for it, or are We the producers
56:73  We have made it a reminder and an advantage for the wayfarers of the desert
56:74  Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great
56:75  But nay! I swear by the falling of stars
56:76  And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew
56:77  Most surely it is an honored Quran
56:78  In a book that is protecte
56:79  None shall touch it save the purified ones
56:80  A revelation by the Lord of the worlds
56:81  Do you then hold this announcement in contempt
56:82  And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence
56:83  Why is it not then that when it (soul) comes up to the throat
56:84  And you at that time look on-
56:85  And We are nearer to it than you, but you do not see-
56:86  Then why is it not-- if you are not held under authority-
56:87  That you send it (not) back-- if you are truthful
56:88  Then if he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah)
56:89  Then happiness and bounty and a garden of bliss
56:90  And if he is one of those on the right hand
56:91  Then peace to you from those on the right hand
56:92  And if he is one of the rejecters, the erring ones
56:93  He shall have an entertainment of boiling water
56:94  And burning in hell
56:95  Most surely this is a certain truth
56:96  Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great
