There hath asked an asker for the torment about to befall
The infidels, of which there is no averter
From Allah, Owner of the ascending steps
Whereby the angels ascend Unto Him and also the spirit, On a Day whereof the measure is fifty thousand years
Wherefore be thou patient with a becoming patience
Verily they behold it afar off
And We behold it nigh
It shall befall on a Day whereon the heaven shall become like Unto dregs of oil
And then the mountains shall become like Unto wool dyed
And not a friend shall ask a friend
Though they shall be made to see one another. Fain would the guilty ransom himself from the torment of that Day by his children
And his spouse and his brother
And his kin that sheltered him
And all who are on the earth; so that this might deliver him
By no means! Verily it is a Flame
Flaying off the scalp-skin
It shall calll him who turneth back and backslideth
And masseth and then hoardeth
Verily man is formed impatient
When evil toucheth him, he is bewailing
And when good toucheth him he is begrudging
Not so are the prayerful
Who are at their prayer constant
And those in whose riches is a known right
For the beggar and the destitute
And those who testify to the Day of Requital
And those who are fearful of their Lord's torment
Verily the torment of their Lord is not a thing to feel secure from
And those who of their private parts are guards
Save in regard to their spouses or those whom their right hands own; so verily they are not blameworthy
And whosoever seeketh beyond that, then it is those who are the trespasser
And those who of their trusts and their covenant are keepers
And those who stand firm in their testimonies
And those who of their prayer are observant
Those shall dwell in Gardens, honoured
What aileth those who disbelieve, toward thee hastening
On the right and on the left, in companies
Coveteth every man of them, that he shall enter the Garden of Delight
By no means! veriiy We! We have created them from that which they know
I swear by the Lord of the easts and the wests, that, vierly We are Able
To replace them by others better than they; and We are not to be outrun
Wherefore let thou them alone plunging in vanity and sporting until they meet their Day which they are promised
The Day whereon they shall come forth from the sepulchres hastily, as though they were to an altar hurrying
Downcast shall be their looks; abjectness shall overspread them. Such is the Day which they are promised
