It will bring down [some] and raise up [others].

 

56:4

to top

56:4

When the earth is shaken with convulsion

 

56:5

to top

56:5

Sahih International

And become dust dispersing.

 

56:7

And you become [of] three kinds:

 

56:8

to top

56:8

Then the companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

 

56:9

to top

56:9

 

Sahih International

And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

 

56:10

to top

56:10

 

Sahih International

And the forerunners, the forerunners -

 

56:11

to top

56:11

 

Sahih International

Those are the ones brought near [to Allah ]

 

56:12

to top

56:12

 

Sahih International

In the Gardens of Pleasure,

 

56:13

to top

56:13

 

Sahih International

A [large] company of the former peoples

 

56:14

to top

56:14

 

Sahih International

And a few of the later peoples,

 

56:15

to top

56:15

 

Sahih International

On thrones woven [with ornament],

 

56:16

to top

56:16

 

Sahih International

Reclining on them, facing each other.

 

56:17

to top

56:17

 

Sahih International

There will circulate among them young boys made eternal

 

56:18

to top

56:18

 

Sahih International

With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -

 

56:19

to top

56:19

 

Sahih International

No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated -

 

56:20

to top

56:20

 

Sahih International

And fruit of what they select

 

56:21

to top

56:21

 

Sahih International

And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire.

 

56:22

to top

56:22

 

Sahih International

And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,

 

56:23

to top

56:23

 

Sahih International

The likenesses of pearls well-protected,

 

56:24

to top

56:24

 

Sahih International

As reward for what they used to do.

 

56:25

to top

56:25

 

Sahih International

They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin -

 

56:26

to top

56:26

 

Sahih International

Only a saying: "Peace, peace."

 

56:27

to top

56:27

 

Sahih International

The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?

 

56:28

to top

56:28

 

Sahih International

[They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed

 

56:29

to top

56:29

 

Sahih International

And [banana] trees layered [with fruit]

 

56:30

to top

56:30

 

Sahih International

And shade extended

 

56:31

to top

56:31

 

Sahih International

And water poured out

 

56:32

to top

56:32

 

Sahih International

And fruit, abundant [and varied],

 

56:33

to top

56:33

 

Sahih International

Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden,

 

56:34

to top

56:34

 

Sahih International

And [upon] beds raised high.

 

56:35

to top

56:35

 

Sahih International

Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation

 

56:36

to top

56:36

 

Sahih International

And made them virgins,

 

56:37

to top

56:37

 

Sahih International

Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age,

 

56:38

to top

56:38

 

Sahih International

For the companions of the right [who are]

 

56:39

to top

56:39

 

Sahih International

A company of the former peoples

 

56:40

to top

56:40

 

Sahih International

And a company of the later peoples.

 

56:41

to top

56:41

 

Sahih International

And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?

 

56:42

to top

56:42

 

Sahih International

[They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water

 

56:43

to top

56:43

 

Sahih International

And a shade of black smoke,

 

56:44

to top

56:44

 

Sahih International

Neither cool nor beneficial.

 

56:45

to top

56:45

 

Sahih International

Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence,

 

56:46

to top

56:46

 

Sahih International

And they used to persist in the great violation,

 

56:47

to top

56:47

 

Sahih International

And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

 

56:48

to top

56:48

 

Sahih International

And our forefathers [as well]?"

 

56:49

to top

56:49

 

Sahih International

Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, the former and the later peoples

 

56:50

to top

56:50

 

Sahih International

Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day."

 

56:51

to top

56:51

 

Sahih International

Then indeed you, O those astray [who are] deniers,

 

56:52

to top

56:52

 

Sahih International

Will be eating from trees of zaqqum

 

56:53

to top

56:53

 

Sahih International

And filling with it your bellies

 

56:54

to top

56:54

 

Sahih International

And drinking on top of it from scalding water

 

56:55

to top

56:55

 

Sahih International

And will drink as the drinking of thirsty camels.

 

56:56

to top

56:56

 

Sahih International

That is their accommodation on the Day of Recompense.

 

56:57

to top

56:57

 

Sahih International

We have created you, so why do you not believe?

 

56:58

to top

56:58

 

Sahih International

Have you seen that which you emit?

 

56:59

to top

56:59

 

Sahih International

Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator?

 

56:60

to top

56:60

 

Sahih International

We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be outdone

 

56:61

to top

56:61

 

Sahih International

In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know.

 

56:62

to top

56:62

 

Sahih International

And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember?

 

56:63

to top

56:63

 

Sahih International

And have you seen that [seed] which you sow?

 

56:64

to top

56:64

 

Sahih International

Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower?

 

56:65

to top

56:65

 

Sahih International

If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder,

 

56:66

to top

56:66

 

Sahih International

[Saying], "Indeed, we are [now] in debt;

 

56:67

to top

56:67

 

Sahih International

Rather, we have been deprived."

 

56:68

to top

56:68

 

Sahih International

And have you seen the water that you drink?

 

56:69

to top

56:69

 

Sahih International

Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down?

 

56:70

to top

56:70

 

Sahih International

If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful?

 

56:71

to top

56:71

 

Sahih International

And have you seen the fire that you ignite?

 

56:72

to top

56:72

 

Sahih International

Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer?

 

56:73

to top

56:73

 

Sahih International

We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers,

 

56:74

to top

56:74

 

Sahih International

So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

 

56:75

to top

56:75

 

Sahih International

Then I swear by the setting of the stars,

 

56:76

to top

56:76

 

Sahih International

And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great.

 

56:77

to top

56:77

 

Sahih International

Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an

 

56:78

to top

56:78

 

Sahih International

In a Register well-protected;

 

56:79

to top

56:79

 

Sahih International

None touch it except the purified.

 

56:80

to top

56:80

 

Sahih International

[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

 

56:81

to top

56:81

 

Sahih International

Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent

 

56:82

to top

56:82

 

Sahih International

And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]?

 

56:83

to top

56:83

 

Sahih International

Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat

 

56:84

to top

56:84

 

Sahih International

And you are at that time looking on -

 

56:85

to top

56:85

 

Sahih International

And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see -

 

56:86

to top

56:86

 

Sahih International

Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed,

 

56:87

to top

56:87

 

Sahih International

Bring it back, if you should be truthful?

 

56:88

to top

56:88

 

Sahih International

And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah ,

 

56:89

to top

56:89

 

Sahih International

Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.

 

56:90

to top

56:90

 

Sahih International

And if he was of the companions of the right,

 

56:91

to top

56:91

 

Sahih International

Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right."

 

56:92

to top

56:92

 

Sahih International

But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray,

 

56:93

to top

56:93

 

Sahih International

Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water

 

56:94

to top

56:94

 

Sahih International

And burning in Hellfire

 

56:95

to top

56:95

 

Sahih International

Indeed, this is the true certainty,

 

56:96

to top

56:96

 

Sahih International

So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
