| In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. |

1. | I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked, |
2. | And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed, |
3. | And by those who float in space, |
4. | Then those who are foremost going ahead, |
S. | Then those who regulate the affair |
6. | The day on which the quaking one shall quake, |
7. | What must happen afterwards shall follow it |
8. | Hearts on that day shall palpitate, |
9. | Their eyes cast down |
10. | They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state? |
11. | What! when we are rotten bones? |
12. | They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss |
13. | But it shall be only a single cry, |
14. | When lo! they shall be wakeful |
15. | Has not there come to you the story of Musa? |
16. | When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice, |
17. | Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate |
18. | Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself: |
19. | And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear. |
20. | So he showed him the mighty sign |
21. | But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed |
22. | Then he went back hastily |
23. | Then he gathered (men) and called out |
24. | Then he said: I am your lord, the most high |
25. | So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life. |
26. | Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears |
27. | Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it |
28. | He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state. |
29. | And He made dark its night and brought out its light |
30. | And the earth, He expanded it after that |
31. | He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage |
32. | And the mountains, He made them firm, |
33. | A provision for you and for your cattle |
34. | But when the great predominating calamity comes; |
35. | The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after, |
36. | And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees |
37. | Then as for him who is inordinate, |
38. | And prefers the life of this world, |
39. | Then surely the hell, that is the abode |
40. | And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires, |
41. | Then surely the garden-- that is the abode |
42. | They ask you about the hour, when it will come |
43. | About what! You are one to remind of it |
44. | To your Lord is the goal of it |
45. | You are only a warner to him who would fear it |
46. | On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it. |
