56:1
When the Event to happen happens
56:2
There is no denying its happening –
56:3
Abasing some and exalting others
56:4
When the earth is shaken with a violent shock
56:5
And the mountains are shattered and crumbl
56:6
So they become dust scattered
56:7
You (all conscious, responsible beings) will be sorted out into three group
56:8
Thus: the people of the Right (the people of happiness and prosperity, who receive their Records in their right hands): how happy and prosperous are the people of the Right
56:9
And the people of the Left (the people of wretchedness, who will receive their Records in their left hands): how wretched are the people of the Left
56:10
And the foremost (in faith and good deeds, and serving God’s cause) will be the foremost (in receiving and enjoying God’s mercy)
56:11
Those are the ones near-stationed to God
56:12
In Gardens abounding in bounty and blessings
56:13
A good many of them are from among the first (to have embraced God’s Religion)
56:14
And a few from the later (generations)
56:15
(They will be seated) on lined thrones (encrusted with gold and precious stones)
56:16
Reclining upon them, facing one another
56:17
There will go round them immortal youths
56:18
With goblets, and ewers, and a cup from a clear-flowing spring
56:19
From which no aching of the head ensues, nor intoxication of the mind
56:20
And with fruits such as they choose
56:21
And with the flesh of fowls such as they desire
56:22
And (there will be) pure maidens, most beautiful of eye
56:23
Like pearls kept hidden (in their shells)
56:24
A reward for all (the good) that they used to do
56:25
They will hear there neither vain talk nor accusing speech
56:26
(They will hear) only speech (wishing) peace and security after peace and security
56:27
And the people of the Right (the people of happiness and prosperity who will receive their Records in their right hands): how happy and prosperous are the people of the Right
56:28
Amidst cherry trees laden with fruit
56:29
And banana trees with fruit piled high
56:30
And shade long-extended
56:31
And water gushing (and flowing constantly)
56:32
And fruits (of every other kind) abounding
56:33
Never cut off, nor forbidden
56:34
And (with them will be their) spouses ennobled with beauty and spiritual perfection
56:35
We have brought them into being in a new creation
56:36
And We have made them virgins
56:37
Full of love for their husbands, and equal in age
56:38
For the people of the Right (the people of happiness and prosperity)
56:39
A good many of them are from among the first (to have embraced God’s Religion)
56:40
And a good many are from the later (generations)
56:41
And the people of the Left (who will be given their Records in their left hands): how wretched are the people of the Left
56:42
In the midst of scorching wind and hot, boiling water
56:43
And the shadow of black smoke
56:44
(A shadow) neither cooling nor refreshing
56:45
Indeed, before that, they were lost in excess of pleasures (without moral scruples)
56:46
And would persist in committing the greatest sin (of unbelief or associating partners with God and denying the afterlife)
56:47
And would say: "What? After we have died and become dust and bones, will we indeed be raised from the dead
56:48
"And also our forefathers of old?"
56:49
Say: "Those of old and those of later time
56:50
"Will all be brought together at an appointed time on a Day well-known."
56:51
Then: O you who have strayed (from the Straight Path), who deny (the afterlife)
56:52
You will surely eat of the tree of Zaqqum
56:53
And you fill up your bellies with it
56:54
Thereafter you will drink of hot, boiling water
56:55
You will drink as the camel raging with thirst drinks
56:56
This will be their welcome on the Day of Judgment
56:57
It is We Who have created you. So will you not confirm as truth (what We convey to you as truth)
56:58
Have you considered the semen that you emit
56:59
Is it you who create it, or are We the Creator
56:60
It is also We Who decree death among you – and We cannot be overcome
56:61
So that We may replace you (with new generations like you), and bring you about in a new mode and form of existence you do not know
56:62
For certain you know the first creation (how you are brought into the world), then should you not reflect on (and anticipate the second creation)
56:63
Have you ever considered the seed you sow (in the ground)
56:64
Is it you who cause it to grow, or is it We Who make it grow
56:65
If We so willed, We would surely make it into chaff, and then you would not cease to exclaim
56:66
"We are indeed in a great loss (with our money, time, and efforts gone to waste)
56:67
"Rather, we are left utterly deprived (of our livelihood)."
56:68
Have you ever considered the water that you drink
56:69
Is it you who send it down from the cloud or is it We Who send it down
56:70
If We so willed, We would make it bitter and salty. Then, should you not give thanks
56:71
Have you ever considered the fire that you kindle
56:72
Is it you who bring into being the tree for it, or is it We bring it into being
56:73
We have made it something for reflection (on Our handiwork and Our grace in making the creation useful and beautiful), and a comfort (especially) for the dwellers (and wayfarers) in the desert
56:74
Therefore, glorify the Name of your Lord, the Supreme (declaring His being absolutely above having any defects and partners)
56:75
I swear by the locations of the stars (and their falling)
56:76
– It is indeed a very great oath, if you but knew. –
56:77
Most certainly it is a Qur’an (recited) most honorable
56:78
In a Book well-guarded
56:79
None except the purified ones can reach it (to obtain the knowledge it contains. And none except those cleansed of material and spiritual impurities should touch it)
56:80
It is a Book being sent down in parts from the Lord of the worlds
56:81
Is it this Discourse that you hold in low esteem
56:82
And do you make your share of it denying it
56:83
Then, how is it you do not – when the soul comes up to the throat (of a dying human)
56:84
While you are looking on –
56:85
And while We are nearer to him (the dying human) than you are, but you do not see (that) –
56:86
Then, how is it you do not – if you are not bound to Us in dependence (subject to Our will) –
56:87
(How is it that) you do not restore the soul (of that dying human), if you are truthful (in your claim)
56:88
Now, if he (that dying human) is of those near-stationed to God
56:89
Then (there is for him) comfort in eternal relief (from all kinds of hardships and pains), and abundance, and a Garden of bounty and blessing
56:90
If he is of the people of the Right (the people of happiness and prosperity who will receive their Records in their right hands)
56:91
Then "Peace be upon you" (will be what you will always hear) from the people of the Right
56:92
But if he is one of those who denied (Our Message and Our Messengers), who strayed (from the Straight Path)
56:93
Then his entertainment is boiling wate
56:94
And roasting in a Blazing Flame
56:95
Surely this (Qur’an) is certain truth
56:96
So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Supreme (affirming that He is exalted above any falsehood)
