By the winds which carry dust particles,
2
by the clouds which are heavily loaded with water,
3
by the ships which smoothly sail on the oceans,
4
by the angels which distribute the affairs,
5
that what you are promised is certainly true
6
and the Day of Judgment will inevitably take place.
7
By the beautiful heavens,
8
your ideas are confused.
9
Let whoever wishes, turn away from Our Quran.
10
Death to those whose opinions are merely baseless conjectures.
11
and who wander in the abyss of confusion.
12
They ask, "When it will be the Day of Judgment?"
13
On the Day of Judgment they will be punished by the fire
14
and will be told, "Suffer the torment which you wanted to experience immediately".
15
The pious ones will live amidst gardens and springs,
16
receiving their reward from their Lord. They had been righteous people before the Day of Judgment.
17
They slept very little during the night
18
and asked for forgiveness in the early morning.
19
They assigned a share of their property for the needy and the destitute.
20
In the earth there is evidence (of the Truth) for those who have strong faith.
21
There is also evidence of the Truth within your own selves. Will you then not see?
22
In the heavens there is your sustenance and that which you were promised (Paradise).
23
This, by the Lord of the heavens and the earth is as certain as your ability to speak.
24
Have you heard the story of the honorable guests of Abraham?
25
When they came to him saying, "Peace be with you," he replied to their greeting in the same manner and said to himself, "These are a strange people".
26
He went quietly to his wife and returned to his guests with a fat, roasted calf.
27
He placed it before them. Then he said, "Why are you not eating?"
28
He began to feel afraid. They said, "Do not be afraid," and then gave him the glad news of the birth of a knowledgeable son.
29
His wife came forward, crying and beating her face, saying, "I am an old barren woman!"
30
They said, "This is true but your Lord has said, (that you will have a son); He is All-wise and All-knowing".
