1Concerning what are they disputing? 2Concerning the Great News, 3About which they cannot agree. 4Verily, they shall soon (come to) know! 5Verily, verily they shall soon (come to) know! 6Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse, 7And the mountains as pegs? 8And (have We not) created you in pairs, 9And made your sleep for rest, 10And made the night as a covering, 11And made the day as a means of subsistence? 12And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments, 13And placed (therein) a Light of Splendour? 14And do We not send down from the clouds water in abundance, 15That We may produce therewith corn and vegetables, 16And gardens of luxurious growth? 17Verily the Day of Sorting out is a thing appointed, 18The Day that the Trumpet shall be sounded, and ye shall come forth in crowds; 19And the heavens shall be opened as if there were doors, 20And the mountains shall vanish, as if they were a mirage. 21Truly Hell is as a place of ambush, 22For the transgressors a place of destination: 23They will dwell therein for ages. 24Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink, 25Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold, 26A fitting recompense (for them). 27For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds), 28But they (impudently) treated Our Signs as false. 29And all things have We preserved on record. 30"So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in Punishment." 31Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfilment of (the heart´s) desires; 32Gardens enclosed, and grapevines; 33And voluptuous women of equal age; 34And a cup full (to the brim). 35No vanity shall they hear therein, nor Untruth:- 36Recompense from thy Lord, a gift, (amply) sufficient, 37(From) the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all between, (Allah) Most Gracious: None shall have power to argue with Him. 38The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand forth in ranks, none shall speak except any who is permitted by (Allah) Most Gracious, and He will say what is right. 39That Day will be the sure Reality: Therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) return to his Lord! 40Verily, We have warned you of a Penalty near, the Day when man will see (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the Unbeliever will say, "Woe unto me! Would that I were (metre) dust!"
