I swear by the Day of Resurrection

And I swear by the reproaching soul [to the certainty of resurrection].

Does man think that We will not assemble his bones?

Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips.

But man desires to continue in sin.

He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection?"

So when vision is dazzled

And the moon darkens

And the sun and the moon are joined,

Man will say on that Day, "Where is the [place of] escape?"

No! There is no refuge.

To your Lord, that Day, is the [place of] permanence.

Man will be informed that Day of what he sent ahead and kept back.

Rather, man, against himself, will be a witness,

Even if he presents his excuses.

Move not your tongue with it, [O Muhammad], to hasten with recitation of the Qur'an.

Indeed, upon Us is its collection [in your heart] and [to make possible] its recitation.

So when We have recited it [through Gabriel], then follow its recitation.

Then upon Us is its clarification [to you].

No! But you love the immediate

And leave the Hereafter.

[Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant,

Looking at their Lord.

And [some] faces, that Day, will be contorted,

Expecting that there will be done to them [something] backbreaking.

No! When the soul has reached the collar bones

And it is said, "Who will cure [him]?"

And the dying one is certain that it is the [time of] separation

And the leg is wound about the leg,

To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession.

And the disbeliever had not believed, nor had he prayed.

But [instead], he denied and turned away.

And then he went to his people, swaggering [in pride].

Woe to you, and woe!

Then woe to you, and woe!

Does man think that he will be left neglected?

Had he not been a sperm from semen emitted?

Then he was a clinging clot, and [Allah] created [his form] and proportioned [him]

And made of him two mates, the male and the female.

Is not that [Creator] Able to give life to the dead?

Has there [not] come upon man a period of time when he was not a thing [even] mentioned?

Indeed, We created man from a sperm-drop mixture that We may try him; and We made him hearing and seeing.

Indeed, We guided him to the way, be he grateful or be he ungrateful.

Indeed, We have prepared for the disbelievers chains and shackles and a blaze.

Indeed, the righteous will drink from a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of Kafur,

A spring of which the [righteous] servants of Allah will drink; they will make it gush forth in force [and abundance].

They [are those who] fulfill [their] vows and fear a Day whose evil will be widespread.

And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive,

[Saying], "We feed you only for the countenance of Allah. We wish not from you reward or gratitude.

Indeed, We fear from our Lord a Day austere and distressful."

So Allah will protect them from the evil of that Day and give them radiance and happiness

And will reward them for what they patiently endured [with] a garden [in Paradise] and silk [garments].

[They will be] reclining therein on adorned couches. They will not see therein any [burning] sun or [freezing] cold.

And near above them are its shades, and its [fruit] to be picked will be lowered in compliance.

And there will be circulated among them vessels of silver and cups having been [created] clear [as glass],

Clear glasses [made] from silver of which they have determined the measure.

And they will be given to drink a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of ginger

[From] a fountain within Paradise named Salsabeel.
