By the angels who drag forth vehemently
By the angels who release with gentle release
By the angels who glide swimmingiy
And then they speed with foremost speed
And then they manage the affair
A Day shall come whereon the quaking will quake
And there will follow it the next blast
Hearts on that Day will be throbbing
Their looks will be downcast
They say: shall we indeed be restored to the first state
When we have become bones decayed
They say: that then shall be a losing return
It will be only one scaring shout
And lo! they all shall appear on the surface
Hath there come Unto thee the story of Musa
Recall what time his Lord called Unto him in the holy vale of Tuwa
Saying:'go thou Unto Fir'awn; verily he hath waxen exorbitant
Then say thou: 'wouldst thou to be purified
Then shall guide thee Unto thy Lord so that thou shalt fear
Then he shewed him the great sign
Yet he belied and disobeyed
Then he turned back striving
Then he gathered and cried aloud
And he said: I am Your Lord, most high
Wherefore Allah laid hold of him with the punishment of the Hereafter and of the present
Verily herein is lesson for him who feareth
Are ye harder to create or the heaven which He hath builded
He hath raised the height thereof and perfected it
And He made dark its night, and brought forth its sunshine
And the earth!- thereafter He stretched it out
And he brought forth therefrom its water, and its pasture
And the mountains! - He established them firm
A provision for you and your cattle
Then when the Grand Calamity shall com
The Day whereon man shall rember whatsoever he had striven for
And the Scorch will be made apparent to any one who beholdeth
Then as for him who waxed exorbitant
And who chose the life of the world
Verily the Scorch! that shall be his resort
And as for him who dreaded standing before his Lord, and restrained his soul from lust
Verily the Garden! -that shall be his resort
They question thee of the Hour:'when will its arrival be
Wherein art thou concerred with the declaration thereof
Unto thy Lord is the Knowledge of the limit fixed therefor
Thou art but a warner Unto him who feareth
On the Day whereon they behold it, it will appear to them as though they had not tarried save an evening or the morn thereof
