Therefore, when it is recited by Us (through the angel), follow its recitation (by concentration of your heart).

Then, it is undertaken by Us to explain it.

Never, (your denial of Resurrection is never based on any sound reason!) Instead, you love that which is immediate,

and neglect the Hereafter.

Many faces, that day, will be glowing,

looking towards their Lord,

and many faces, that day, will be gloomy,

realizing that a back-breaking calamity is going to be afflicted on them.

Never, (you will never remain in this world forever!) When the soul (of a patient) reaches the clavicles,

and it is said, “Who is an enchanter (that can save him?)”

and he realizes that it is (the time of) departure (from the world,)

and one shank is intertwined with the other shank,

then on that day, it is to your Lord that one has to be driven.

So (the denier of the Hereafter) neither believed, nor prayed,

but rejected the truth and turned away (from it),

then he went to his home, puffed up with pride.

(It will be said to such a man,) Woe to you, then woe to you!
