I swear by the Day of Resurrection

And I swear by the reproaching soul ˹to the certainty of resurrection˺.

Does man think that We will not assemble his bones?

Yes. ˹We are˺ Able ˹even˺ to proportion his fingertips.

But man desires to continue in sin.

He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection?"

So when vision is dazzled

And the moon darkens

And the sun and the moon are joined,

Man will say on that Day, "Where is the ˹place of˺ escape?"

No! There is no refuge.

To your Lord, that Day, is the ˹place of˺ permanence.

Man will be informed that Day of what he sent ahead and kept back.

Rather, man, against himself, will be a witness,

Even if he presents his excuses.

لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ

وَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلنَّفْسِ ٱللَّوَّامَةِ

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُۥ

بَلَىٰ قَٰدِرِينَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُۥ

بَلْ يُرِيدُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُۥ

يَسْـَٔلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلْبَصَرُ

وَخَسَفَ ٱلْقَمَرُ

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ

يَقُولُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ ٱلْمَفَرُّ

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمُسْتَقَرُّ

يُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذِۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ

بَلِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةࣱ

وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ

Move not your tongue with it, ˹O Muhammad˺, to hasten with recitation of the Qur'an.

Indeed, upon Us is its collection ˹in your heart˺ and ˹to make possible˺ its recitation.

So when We have recited it ˹through Gabriel˺, then follow its recitation.

No! But you love the immediate

And leave the Hereafter.

˹Some˺ faces, that Day, will be radiant,

Looking at their Lord.

And ˹some˺ faces, that Day, will be contorted,

Expecting that there will be done to them ˹something˺ backbreaking.

No! When the soul has reached the collar bones

And it is said, "Who will cure ˹him˺?"

And the dying one is certain that it is the ˹time of˺ separation

And the leg is wound about the leg,

To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession.

لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِۦ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِۦٓ

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُۥ وَقُرْءَانَهُۥ

فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَٰهُ فَٱتَّبِعْ قُرْءَانَهُۥ

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ ٱلْعَاجِلَةَ

وَتَذَرُونَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ

وُجُوهࣱ يَوْمَئِذࣲ نَّاضِرَةٌ

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةࣱ

وَوُجُوهࣱ يَوْمَئِذِۭ بَاسِرَةࣱ

تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةࣱ

كَلَّآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلتَّرَاقِيَ

وَقِيلَ مَنْ͏ۜ رَاقࣲ

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ ٱلْفِرَاقُ

وَٱلْتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمَسَاقُ

And the disbeliever had not believed, nor had he prayed.

But ˹instead˺, he denied and turned away.

And then he went to his people, swaggering ˹in pride˺.

Woe to you, and woe!

Then woe to you, and woe!

Does man think that he will be left neglected?

Had he not been a sperm from semen emitted?

Then he was a clinging clot, and ˹Allah˺ created ˹his form˺ and proportioned ˹him˺

And made of him two mates, the male and the female.

Is not that ˹Creator˺ Able to give life to the dead?

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ

وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ يَتَمَطَّىٰٓ

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰٓ

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةࣰ مِّن مَّنِيࣲّ يُمْنَىٰ

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةࣰ فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ ٱلزَّوْجَيْنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ

أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يُحْـِۧيَ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ
