78. The Announcement - An-Naba

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

78:1	Of what do they ask one another?
78:2	About the great event,
78:3	About which they differ?
78:4	Nay! they shall soon come to know
78:5	Nay! Nay! they shall soon know.
78:6	Have We not made the earth an even expanse?
78:7	And the mountains as projections (thereon)?
78:8	And We created you in pairs,
78:9	And We made your sleep to be rest (to you),
78:10	And We made the night to be a covering,
78:11	And We made the day for seeking livelihood.
78:12	And We made above you seven strong ones,
78:13	And We made a shining lamp,
78:14	And We send down from the clouds water pouring forth abundantly,
78:15	That We may bring forth thereby corn and herbs,
78:16	And gardens dense and luxuriant.
78:17	Surely the day of decision is (a day) appointed:
78:18	The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you shall come forth in hosts,
78:19	And the heaven shall be opened so that it shall be all openings,
78:20	And the mountains shall be moved off so that they shall remain a mere semblance.
78:21	Surely hell lies in wait,
78:22	A place of resort for the inordinate,
78:23	Living therein for ages.
78:24	They shall not taste therein cool nor drink
78:25	But boiling and intensely cold water,
78:26	Requital corresponding.
78:27	Surely they feared not the account,
78:28	And called Our communications a lie, giving the lie (to the truth).
78:29	And We have recorded everything in a book,
78:30	So taste! for We will not add to you aught but chastisement.
78:31	Surely for those who guard (against evil) is achievement,
78:32	Gardens and vineyards,
78:33	And those showing freshness of youth, equals in age,
78:34	And a pure cup.
78:35	They shall not hear therein any vain words nor lying.
78:36	A reward from your Lord, a gift according to a reckoning:
78:37	The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, the Beneficent God, they shall not be able to address Him.
78:38	The day on which the spirit and the angels shall stand in ranks; they shall not speak except he whom the Beneficent God permits and who speaks the right thing.
78:39	That is the sure day, so whoever desires may take refuge with his Lord.
78:40	Surely We have warned you of a chastisement near at hand: the day when man shall see what his two hands have sent before, and the unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust!
