When the Imminent Event (of Doom) will occur,

there will be no one to deny its occurrence.

It will be abasing (some), exalting (others)

when the earth will be jolted with a terrible jolt,

and the mountains will be crumbled a thorough crumbling,

until they will become dust, scattered in the air,

and you will be (divided into) three categories.

As for the People of the Right, how (lucky) are the People of the Right!

And the People of the Left ? How (wretched) are the People of the Left!

And the Foremost are the foremost.

Those are the ones blessed with nearness (to Allah)

in gardens of bliss,

many from the first generations,

and a few from the later ones.

(They will be sitting) on thrones woven with gold,

reclining on them, facing each other.

Immortal boys will rotate around them

with bowls and jugs and a goblet of pure wine,

from which they will neither suffer headache, nor will they be intoxicated,

-and with fruits that they choose,

and the flesh of birds that they desire.

And (for them there will be) houris, having lovely big eyes,

all (neat and clean) like a hidden pearl,

as a reward for what they used to do.

They will hear neither an absurd talk in it, nor something leading to sin,

but (they will hear) the words of Salām , Salām (as greetings).

And the People of the right? How (lucky) are the People of the Right!

(They will be) amid lote-trees with no thorns,

and the trees of TalH , (banana, or a fragrant tree) having layers one upon the other,

and a shade, spread all over,

and water, poured forth,

and a lot of fruits,

neither interrupted (in any season), nor prohibited,

and mattresses of high quality.
