3
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the reality is!
4
(The tribes of) Thamud and 'Aad disbelieved in the Judgement to come.
5
As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the lightning.
6
And as for 'Aad, they were destroyed by a fierce roaring wind,
7
Which He imposed on them for seven long nights and eight long days so that thou mightest have seen men lying overthrown, as they were hollow trunks of palm-trees.
8
Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them?
9
And Pharaoh and those before him, and the communities that were destroyed, brought error,
10
And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, therefore did He grip them with a tightening grip.
11
Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the shipp
12
That We might make it a memorial for you, and that remembering ears (that heard the story) might remember.
13
And when the Trumpet shall sound one blastt
14
And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
15
Then, on that day will the Event befall.
16
And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.
17
And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne of their Lord that day, above them.
18
On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden.
19
Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book!
20
Surely I knew that I should have to meet my reckoning.
21
Then he will be in blissful statee
23
Whereof the clusters are in easy reach.
24
(And it will be said unto those therein): Eat and drink at ease for that which ye sent on before you in past days.
25
But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say: Oh, would that I had not been given my bookk
26
And knew not what my reckoning!
27
Oh, would that it had been death!
28
My wealth hath not availed me,
29
My power hath gone from me.
30
(It will be said): Take him and fetter himm
