Surah “The Mount, The Mountain”

And (by) At- Tur, (The Mount

And (by) a Book inscribed

In a parchment spread

And (by) the Home always frequented

And (by) the roof upraised

And (by) the sea seething

Surely your Lord's torment is indeed befalling

In no way (can) there be any repelling

The Day when the heaven whirls with (awful) whirling

And the mountains travel with (awful) traveling

Then woe upon that day to the beliers

They are the ones who play at their wading, (i.e., become absorbed

The Day when they are repulsed to the fire of Hell with (contemptuous) repulsing

"This is the Fire that you used to cry lies to

So, is this magic, or is it you (who) do not behold

Roast in it! So (endure) patiently (in it) or do not (endure) patiently, equal it is to you! Surely you are only being recompensed for whatever you were doing."

Surely the pious will be in Gardens and Bliss

Jesting with what their Lord has brought them, and their Lord will protect them from the torment of Hell-Fire_

"Eat and drink, (rejoicing) with wholesome appetite for whatever you were doing."

Reclining upon ranged settees. And We will marry them to wide-eyed huras

And the ones who believed, and their offspring closely followed them in belief, We will join their offspring with them, and in no way will We withhold from them anything of their deed (s); every person will be a constant pledge for whatever he has earned

And We will supply them with fruits and flesh such as they crave for

Therein they will (obligingly) contend with one another cups, and there is no idle talk, and no room for vice

And (there) go round them youths of their own, as if they were nestled pearl (s)

And some of them come forward to others, asking one another (Literally: some (others) (questions)

They say, "Surely we were before among our families, (feeling) timorous

Then Allah was bounteous to us, and protected us from the torment of the Pestilential Wind

Surely we used earlier to invoke Him; surely He, Ever He, is The Ever-Benign, The Ever-Merciful."

Then remind! So in no way are you (The Prophet) by your Lord's favor a soothsayer or a madman

Or even do they say, "He is a poet for whom we await the uncertainty (i.e., the calamity of death; literally: the suspicion of fortune or fate) of fortune?"

Say, "Await! So surely I will be with you among the awaiting ones."

Or even do their immature understandings command them to do this

Or even are they an inordinate people?. Or even do they say, "He talked it foolishly?" No indeed, (but) they do not believe

Then let them come up with a discourse like this, in case they are sincere

Or even were they created out of nothing? Or even are they the creators

Or even did they create the heavens and the earth? No indeed, (but) they have no certitude

Or even do they have in their presence the treasuries of your Lord? Or even are they the dominators

Or even do they have a ladder wherein they listen? Then let their listener come up with an evident, all- binding authority

Or even has He the daughters, and you have the sons

Or even do you ask them for a reward, (and) so they are weighed down with heavy fines

Or even do they have in their presence the Unseen, (and) so they are writing (it) down

Or even would they like plotting? Then the ones who have disbelieved are they who are (circumvented) in their plotting

Or even do they have a god, other than Allah? All Extolment be to Allah above whatever they associate (with Him)

And in case they saw a dark lump falling down from the heaven, they would say, "Accumulated clouds!"

So, leave them out, till they meet their Day wherein they will be stunned. (i.e., thunderstruck

The Day when their plotting will not avail them anything, nor will they be vindicated

And surely, for the ones who did injustice, there is a torment besides that, but most of them do not know

And (endure) patiently under the Judgment of your Lord, (for) then surely you are under Our Eyes, and extol with the praise (s) of your Lord when you rise up

And for (part) of the night, then (also) extol Him, and at the with drawing of the stars
