56:1
When that (inevitable) event, (the Day of Judgment) occurs
56:2
There shall be no one to deny the fact of its occurrence
56:3
(It will) humble some, honor others
56:4
When the earth shall be shaken up violently
56:5
And the mountains are ground up into fine particles
56:6
And scattered about as dust
56:7
(That day), you shall (all) be (divided into) three factions
56:8
The people of the right! How (fortunate) would be the people of the right
56:9
The people of the left! How (wretched) would be the people of the left
56:10
(But of course), the foremost (in righteousness, those who exceeded and excelled) would be the foremost (in honor)
56:11
They would be nearest (to Allah)
56:12
In the blissful paradise
56:13
Many (of the foremost would be) from the earlier (generations)
56:14
And fewer from the later (generations)
56:15
(They will sit) on thrones engraved with gold and precious stones
56:16
They would recline (on their thrones), facing each other
56:17
Youthful lads, who would stay young forever,would wait on them
56:18
With cups and goblets, and glasses filled (with pure wine) from the spring
56:19
It would neither cause a hangover, nor affect their senses
56:20
And (they shall have) fruits, any (kind) they choose
56:21
And the flesh of birds and fowl, whichever they fancy
56:22
And lovely-eyed nymphs (of paradise)
56:23
(So beautiful), as if they were pearls preserved in their shells
56:24
(All as) rewards for what they used to do
56:25
There, they shall not hear anything vulgar or vile
56:26
Only serene and peaceful greetings
56:27
And for the people of the right? How (fortunate) would be the people of the right
56:28
(They would be in a place) with thornless lotus trees
56:29
Clusters of Acacia _ (a tree in paradise)
56:30
Dense and defuse shade
56:31
Water pouring out (of springs constantly)
56:33
Unforbidden and limitless
56:34
And elevated thrones
56:35
(As for their wives), We would fashion them afresh
56:36
And make them young again, vernal and virginal
56:37
Loving and devoted mates of the same age
56:38
(All this), for the people of the right
56:39
(There would be) many (of them) from the earlier (generations)
56:40
And many from the later (generations)
56:41
And the people of the left? How (wretched) would be the people of the left
56:42
(They would live) in the (blistering) hot wind, and the (boiling) hot water
56:43
Under the cover of the dark smoke
56:44
Which is neither cool nor refreshing
56:45
Prior to this, they had the life of leisure and luxury
56:46
And persisted in the greatest of sins
56:47
They used to say, "After we die and wither away into dust and bones, would we really be brought back to life?"
56:48
"And our forefathers, too?"
56:49
(Tell them, oh prophet) "Indeed, all (of you) of the earlier and later times,"
56:50
"Would certainly be gathered together at the selected place, on an appointed day."
56:51
"And then, oh you who went astray and rejected (the truth)!"
56:52
"You would certainly have to eat the fruit of the tree of ´zaqqum´,"
56:53
"And stuff yourself with it."
56:54
"(To flush it down), you are going to have (only) hot boiling water,"
56:55
"Which you will drink like a thirst stricken camel!"
56:56
Such will be their ´reception´ on the Day of Judgment
56:57
It is We Who has created you. Why then do you not affirm the truth
56:58
Do you ever think about the semen you ejaculate
56:59
Do you turn it into a human fetus, or are We the Creator
56:60
We have decreed death for all of you, and We are not incapable
56:61
Of altering your form, and reshaping you into an altogether different existence. An existence about which you know absolutely nothing
56:62
You are certainly well aware of this (present) form of creation. So, why do you not heed
56:63
Do you ever think about the seeds you sow in the soil
56:64
Do you make them grow? Or is it We Who turns the seeds into a field full of crops
56:65
If We wish, We can convert the crop into chaff and leave you whining
56:66
(Saying), "We have really been penalized!"
56:67
"In fact we have been deprived."
56:68
Do you ever think about the water you drink
56:69
Did you bring it down from the rain clouds? Or is it We Who makes the rain come down
56:70
If We wish, We could make it brackish. So why aren´t you grateful
56:71
Do you ever think about the fire you build (from logs)
56:72
Did you bring the trees (and forests) into being? Or is it We Who causes them to be
56:73
We have made all this to remind you (of Us), and a skill (providing comfort) for those in the wilderness
56:74
So glorify and praise the name of your Supreme Lord
56:75
No, of course not! I swear by the position of the stars
56:76
And it is, indeed, a very solemn oath if you only knew
56:77
(I swear that) this (Qur´an) is certainly a noble recital
56:78
(Inscribed) in a well-guarded book
56:79
Only those who are (physically and ritually) clean, (are allowed to) touch it
56:80
(It is) a revelation from the Lord of the universe
56:81
Yet, do you shun this narrative (nonchalantly)
56:82
Do you make the denial (of the truth) your livelihood, (and respond to the blessings by rejecting the truth)
56:83
How about when (the soul of the dying) heaves up into the throat
56:84
At that time, you can do nothing but look on (helplessly)
56:85
Compared to you, We are closer to the one dying. But you cannot see
56:86
Thus, if (you think) you are not subject to reckoning, why can´t you
56:87
Return the soul back (to the dead), if you are (indeed) truthful
56:88
And if the dying person had been (the one) nearest (to Allah)
56:89
(He shall have) peace and tranquility, bounteous provisions and the blissful idyllic paradise
56:90
While if the (dying) person is among those of the right (side)
56:91
(He shall hear the greetings), "Peace be to you. (You are) among those of the right (side)."
56:92
But if the deceased happens to be among those who rejected and went astray
56:93
(He shall have) the hot boiling water ´to welcome´ him
56:94
And the roasting heat of the hellfire
56:95
Indeed! That is definitely and most certainly the absolute truth
56:96
So, (oh prophet)! glorify and praise the name of the Greatest, your Supreme Lord
