Surah “The Event, The Inevitable, That Which is Coming”

as rendered by Umm Muhammad (Sahih International) — 96 verses

When the Occurrence occurs
There is, at its occurrence, no denial
It will bring down [some] and raise up [others]
When the earth is shaken with convulsio
And the mountains are broken down, crumblin
And become dust dispersing
And you become [of] three kinds
Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right
And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left
And the forerunners, the forerunners
Those are the ones brought near [to Allah ]
In the Gardens of Pleasure
A [large] company of the former people
And a few of the later peoples
On thrones woven [with ornament]
Reclining on them, facing each other
There will circulate among them young boys made eternal
With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring
No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated
And fruit of what they select
And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire
And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes
The likenesses of pearls well-protected
As reward for what they used to do
They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin
Only a saying: "Peace, peace."
The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right
[They will be] among lote trees with thorns remove
And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]
And shade extende
And water poured out
And fruit, abundant [and varied]
Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden
And [upon] beds raised high
Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creatio
And made them virgins
Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age
For the companions of the right [who are]
A company of the former people
And a company of the later peoples
And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left
[They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water
And a shade of black smoke
Neither cool nor beneficial
Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence
And they used to persist in the great violation
And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected
And our forefathers [as well]?"
Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, the former and the later people
Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day."
Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers
Will be eating from trees of zaqqum
And filling with it your bellies
And drinking on top of it from scalding water
And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels
That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense
We have created you, so why do you not believe
Have you seen that which you emit
Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator
We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone
In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know
And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember
And have you seen that [seed] which you sow
Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower
If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder
[Saying], "Indeed, we are [now] in debt
Rather, we have been deprived."
And have you seen the water that you drink
Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down
If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful
And have you seen the fire that you ignite
Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer
We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers
So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great
Then I swear by the setting of the stars
And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great
Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an
In a Register well-protected
None touch it except the purified
[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds
Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent
And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]
Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat
And you are at that time looking on
And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see
Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed
Bring it back, if you should be truthful
And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah
Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure
And if he was of the companions of the right
Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right."
But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray
Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water
And burning in Hellfir
Indeed, this is the true certainty
So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great
