70:1
A man [mockingly] demanded the punishment
70:2
It will fall on the disbelievers––none can deflect it––
70:3
from God, the Lord of the Ways of Ascent
70:4
by which the angels and the Spirit ascend to Him, on a Day whose length is fifty thousand years
70:5
So be patient, [Prophet], as befits you
70:6
The disbelievers think it is distant
70:7
but We know it to be close
70:8
On a Day when the heavens will be like molten bras
70:9
and the mountains like tufts of wool
70:10
when no friend will ask about his friend
70:11
even when they are within sight of one another. The guilty person will wish he could save himself from the suffering of that Day by sacrificing his sons
70:12
his spouse, his brother
70:13
the kinsfolk who gave him shelter
70:14
and everyone on earth, if it could save him
70:15
But no! There is a raging flam
70:16
that strips away the skin
70:17
and it will claim everyone who rejects the truth, turns away
70:18
amasses wealth and hoards it
70:19
Man was truly created anxious
70:20
he is fretful when misfortune touches him
70:21
but tight-fisted when good fortune comes his way
70:22
Not so those who pra
70:23
and are constant in their prayers
70:24
who give a due share of their wealt
70:25
to beggars and the deprived
70:26
who believe in the Day of Judgemen
70:27
and fear the punishment of their Lord––
70:28
none may feel wholly secure from it––
70:29
who guard their chastit
70:30
from all but their spouses or their slave-girls––there is no blame attached to [relations with] these
70:31
but those whose desires exceed this limit are truly transgressors––
70:32
who are faithful to their trusts and their pledges
70:33
who give honest testimon
70:34
and are steadfast in their prayers
70:35
They will be honoured in Gardens of bliss
70:36
What is wrong with the disbelievers? Why do they rush to peer at you [Prophet]
70:37
from right and left, in crowds
70:38
Does every one of them expect to enter a Garden of bliss
70:39
No! We created them from the substance they know
70:40
and, by the Lord of every sunrise and sunset, We have the powe
70:41
to substitute for them others better than they are- nothing can prevent Us from doing this
70:42
So leave them to wallow in idle talk, until they come face to face with their promised Day
70:43
the Day they will rush out of their graves as if rallying to a flag
70:44
eyes downcast and covered in shame: that is the Day of which they were warned
