Surah “The Reality, The Inevitable”

as rendered by Hasan Al-Fatih Qaribullah — 52 verses

The Resurrection Verifier
and what is the Resurrection Verifier
What makes you to know what the Resurrection Verifier is
Thamood and Aad belied the Clatterer
Thamood, they were destroyed by the violent shout (of Gabriel)
as for Aad, they were destroyed by a howling, violent win
that He subjected upon them for seven nights and eight days consecutively and you might have seen them struck down as if they were the stumps of palm trees that had fallen down
Can you see any remnant of them now
Similarly, Pharaoh, and those before him, and the ruined villages, sinner
and rebelled against their Lord's Messenger. So He took them with a stern taking
And when the waters rose (high) We carried you in the sailing (Ark)
making it a Reminder for you, for all attentive ears to retain
When a single blow is blown on the Horn
when the earth with all its mountains is lifted up and crushed with a single blow
on that Day, the Event occurs
The heaven will be split; because on that Day it will be frail
The angels will stand on all its sides. And on that Day, eight (of them) will carry the Throne of your Lord above them
On that Day you shall be exposed, and no secret of yours will remain hidden
Then, he who is given his book in his right hand will say: 'Here, take and read my book
Indeed, I knew that I should come to my reckoning.
His shall be a pleasing lif
in a high Garden
its fruits are near
(It will be said): 'Eat and drink with a good appetite because of what you did in days long passed.
But, he who is given his book in his left hand will say: 'Woe to me, would that my book had not been given to me
Nor that I knew my reckoning
Would that it (my death) had ended it all
My wealth has not helped me a thin
and my authority has been destroyed.
(It will be said): 'Take him and bind him
Roast him in Hell
then in a chain seventy arm's lengths long insert him
He did not believe in Allah, the Great
nor did he urge the feeding of the needy
Today he shall have no loyal friend here
nor any food except foul pu
that none but sinners eat.
I swear by all that you can see
and all that you do not see
that this is the speech of a noble Messenger
It is not the speech of a poet little do you believe
nor is it the speech of a soothsayer little do you remember
(It is) a sending down from the Lord of all the Worlds
Had he invented sayings against Us
We would have seized him by the right han
then, We would surely have cut from him the aorta (vein)
not one of you could have prevented it from him
Indeed, it is a Reminder to those who fear Allah
We know that there are some among you who will belie
Indeed, it is a sorrow to the unbeliever
yet it is a certain truth
Exalt the Name of your Lord, the Great
