75: The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection
|
1 |
I do call to witness the Resurrection Day;
|
2 |
And I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit: (Eschew Evil).
|
3 |
Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones?
|
4 |
Nay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his
fingers.
|
5 |
But man wishes to do wrong (even) in the time in front of him.
|
6 |
He questions: "When is the Day of Resurrection?"
|
7 |
At length, when the sight is dazed,
|
8 |
And the moon is buried in darkness.
|
9 |
And the sun and moon are joined together,-
|
10 |
That Day will Man say: "Where is the refuge?"
|
11 |
By no means! No place of safety!
|
12 |
Before thy Lord (alone), that Day will be the place of rest.
|
13 |
That Day will Man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he
put back.
|
14 |
Nay, man will be evidence against himself,
|
15 |
Even though he were to put up his excuses.
|
16 |
Move not thy tongue concerning the (Qur'án) to make haste therewith.
|
17 |
It is for Us to collect it and to promulgate it:
|
18 |
But when We have promulgated it, follow thou its recital (as
promulgated):
|
19 |
Nay more, it is for Us to explain it (and make it clear):
|
20 |
Nay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life,
|
21 |
And leave alone the Hereafter.
|
22 |
Some faces, that Day, will beam (in brightness and beauty);-
|
23 |
Looking towards their Lord;
|
24 |
And some faces, that Day, will be sad and dismal,
|
25 |
In the thought that some back-breaking calamity was about to be
inflicted on them;
|
26 |
Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit),
|
27 |
And there will be a cry, "Who is a magician (to restore him)?"
|
28 |
And he will conclude that it was (the Time) of Parting;
|
29 |
And one leg will be joined with another:
|
30 |
That Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord!
|
31 |
So he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray!-
|
32 |
But on the contrary, he rejected Truth and turned away!
|
33 |
Then did he stalk to his family in full conceit!
|
34 |
Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe!
|
35 |
Again, Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe!
|
36 |
Does man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)?
|
37 |
Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)?
|
38 |
Then did he become a leech-like clot; then did (God) make and fashion
(him) in due proportion.
|
39 |
And of him He made two sexes, male and female.
|
40 |
Has not He, (the same), the power to give life to the dead?
|
