۟ۙ

I swear by those (angels) who pull out (the souls of the infidels) with extreme force,
۟ۙ
and by those (angels) who untie the knot (of the souls of the believers) smoothly,
۟ۙ
and by those who float (in the atmosphere) swiftly,
۟ۙ
then proceed forward quickly,
۟ۘ
then manage (to do) everything (they are ordered to do,)
۟ۙ
(you will be resurrected) on the Day when the shocking event (i.e. the first blowing of the trumpet) will shock (everything),
۟ؕ
followed by the next one (i.e. the second blowing of the trumpet.)
۟ۙ
On that day, hearts (of people) will be throbbing,
۟ۘ
with their eyes downcast.
۟ؕ
They (the infidels) say, “Are we going to be brought back to our former state (of Life)?
۟ؕ
Is it when we are turned into decayed bones?”
۟ۘ
They say, “If so, that will be a harmful homecoming.”
۟ۙ
In fact, it will be only a single harsh voice,
۟ؕ
and in no time they will be (brought) into the plain (of Hashr).
۟ۘ
Has there come to you the narrative about Mūsā?
۟ۚ
(Recall) when his Lord called to him in the blessed valley of Tuwā:
۟ؗۖ
“Go to Fir‘aun (Pharaoh). Indeed, he has crossed all bounds.
۟ۙ
And say (to him,) ‘Would you like to purify yourself,
۟ۚ
and that I should guide you to your Lord, so that you fear (Him)?’”
