۟ۚ

About what are they asking each other?
۟ۙ
About the Great Event
۟ؕ
in which they dispute!
۟ۙ
Indeed they will soon know.
۟
Again, indeed they will soon know.
۟ۙ
Did We not make the earth a floor,
۟
and the mountains bulwarks?
۟ۙ
And We have created you in pairs,
۟ۙ
and made your sleep a source of rest,
۟ۙ
and made the night a covering,
۪۟
and made the day a source of livelihood.
۟ۙ
And We have built seven strong (skies),
۟
and created a luminous lamp (the sun).
۟ۙ
And We have sent down abundant water from the rain-laden clouds,
۟ۙ
so that We bring out therewith grain and vegetation,
۟ؕ
and thick gardens.
۟ۙ
Surely the Day of Decision is an appointed time,
۟ۙ
a day when the trumpet will be blown, so you will come in multitudes,
۟ۙ
and the sky will be opened, so it will become as gates,
۟ؕ
and the mountains will be set in motion, so they will be as mirage.
۟
Surely Jahannam (the Hell) lurks in ambush.
۟ۙ
(It is) abode for the rebellious people
۟ۚ
who will be abiding in it for ages.
۟ۙ
They will taste nothing cool in it, nor a drink,
۟ۙ
except boiling water and pus,
۟ؕ
this being a punishment, fully commensurate (with their deeds).
۟ۙ
They did not expect (to face) accounting (of their deeds),
۟ؕ
and they rejected Our signs totally.
۟ۙ
And everything (from their deeds) is thoroughly recorded by Us in writing.
۟۠
“So now taste! We will add nothing to you but torment.”
۟ۙ
Of course, the God-fearing will have great achievement,
۟ۙ
-gardens and grapes,
۟ۙ
and buxom maidens of matching age,
۟ؕ
and goblets filled up to the brim.
