The Mount acts as a witness
(The) Book written in straight lines acts as a witness
on wide pieces of parchment-paper
‘Always being visited’ House (The Kaba) acts as a witness
The elevated roof (as Heaven) acts as a witness
The sea in high tides acts as a witness
Surely, the torment coming from your Nourisher-Sustainer is about to occur without any doubt
(There is) not unto it any who can avert
The Day the heaven trembles in a dreadful shahead of state
and the mountains slide away in a swift movement
Then woe that Day for the deniers —
those: they sport and play in senseless items
The Day they are pushed down to the Fire of Hell, pushing down with full force
This is the Fire which you used to deny
Is this then magic ? Or you people do not see (the reality)
Slide you therein. Then (whether) you show patience or you do not show patience — (it is the) same to you. Surely what (is a fact is that) you will be rewarded what you had been doing
Verily, the Muttaqun will be in Gardens and Bliss
as those who enjoy with what their Nourisher-Sustainer has provided them; and their Nourisher-Sustainer has saved them from the torment of the blazing Fire
Eat and drink Haniyan (in full happiness) because of what you used to do (in your worldly life) —
recliners on couches arranged in rows; and We provided them the company of Hurin Eenin
And those who have Believed and whose offspring followed them with Faith We did join to these their offspring; and We did not nullify from their deed any thing. Every individual, for what he has earned (in his worldly life,is) mortgaged
And We provided them assistance in (getting) fruits and meat, such as they desire
Therein they shall toast the cup (showing their attachment to one another); there shall be no Laghw [dirty, bad or intoxicating (-effect thereof)] therein; and nor Tasim (a sinful act)
And there will move all around them youthful boys reserved for them — as if they are pearls guarded and preserved
And some of them came directly in front of some others; they would question one another
They said: “Verily, we used to be, aforetime, among our family-members and followers as those who were always conscious of the position (of Allah)
So Allah showered grace on us, and He saved us from the torment of an extremely hot atmosphere
Verily we, we used to call Him aforetime (in our needs and in our regular Prayers). Surely He: He is Al-Barr (The Most Generous, The Most Kind), the continuously Merciful
So propagate the Message. So, by the Grace of your Nourisher-Sustainer you are not a clairvoyant, and nor a fanatic
Or do they say: “ Is he a poet? We await doubt and suspicion which people will have about the Divine‘good and grace’ (which some relate to his person).”
Say: “Wait. Then surely I am with you being out of those who await.”
Do their delusions command them for this, or they are a nation of those who exceed the bounds
Or do they say: “He (who is propagating the Book) has (himself) uttered it (i.e., he himself is its producer and author)?” Nay, they (actually) develop not Faith (in Allah’s Book)
Let them then come with Hadees like unto it if they happened to be those who speak the truth
Have they been created out of nothing, or they themselves (are) the creators
Or have they created the heavens and the earth? Nay! They develop not the certainty in Faith
Or, are with them treasures of your Nourisher-Sustainer, or are they the keepers (controllers thereof)
Or, for them is a receiver they listen to therein (the secret signals of the heavenly administration)? Then let their listener approach with evident power
Or, for Him the daughters and for you the sons
Do you ask them for a reward, so they with a load of debt are burdened people
Or, with them (under their surveilance is) Al-ghaib (the unseen), so they record it down
Or, they intend a plan? Rather those who have disbelieved: they (themselves are) those who are encircled and caught in a stratagem
Or, for them is an ilah other than Allah? Be Allah glorified against what they ascribe as partners (to Him)
And if they watch a piece as one falling down from towards the sky, they will say: “Clouds, piled-up!”
So leave them till they meet their Day — that (one) wherein they will be over-taken by a thunder bolt
(That) Day their plotting does not benefit them at all, and nor they will be helped
And verily, for those who have transgressed (awaits) a torment additional to this; but the majority of them do not know
So show steadfastness for the Ordainment of your Nourisher-Sustainer. So verily, you are under (protection of) Our Eyes. And glorify with the Praise of your Nourisher-Sustainer when you stand up (for offering or leading a Prayer)
And out (of the hours) of the night, do glorify Him and (at the) retreat of the stars. [This is a recommendation for Isha and Fajr Prayers]
