79. Soul Snatchers - An-Naziat

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

79:1	I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,
79:2	And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,
79:3	And by those who float in space,
79:4	Then those who are foremost going ahead,
79:5	Then those who regulate the affair.
79:6	The day on which the quaking one shall quake,
79:7	What must happen afterwards shall follow it.
79:8	Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
79:9	Their eyes cast down.
79:10	They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?
79:11	What! when we are rotten bones?
79:12	They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.
79:13	But it shall be only a single cry,
79:14	When lo! they shall be wakeful.
79:15	Has not there come to you the story of Musa?
79:16	When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,
79:17	Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.
79:18	Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:
79:19	And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.
79:20	So he showed him the mighty sign.
79:21	But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.
79:22	Then he went back hastily.
79:23	Then he gathered (men) and called out.
79:24	Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.
79:25	So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.
79:26	Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.
79:27	Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.
79:28	He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.
79:29	And He made dark its night and brought out its light.
79:30	And the earth, He expanded it after that.
79:31	He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.
79:32	And the mountains, He made them firm,
79:33	A provision for you and for your cattle.
79:34	But when the great predominating calamity comes;
79:35	The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,
79:36	And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees
79:37	Then as for him who is inordinate,
79:38	And prefers the life of this world,
79:39	Then surely the hell, that is the abode.
79:40	And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,
79:41	Then surely the garden -- that is the abode.
79:42	They ask you about the hour, when it will come.
79:43	About what! You are one to remind of it.
79:44	To your Lord is the goal of it.
79:45	You are only a warner to him who would fear it.
79:46	On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
