Blueprint Of A Podium

Surah 79: The angels who tear out souls (An-Naziate)

1. For those who violently tear!
2. And those who gently!
3. And by those who float freely
4. then rushed at full speed,
5. and decide matters!
6. The day [the land] shakes [at the first sound of the bugle]
7. immediately followed by the second.
8. That day, there will be stirred hearts with terror,
9. and their eyes cast down.
10. They say: "What! Will we be back our first life,
11. when we are rotten bones? "
12. They say:" It will be a return with loss! "
13. There will be a summons
14. and now they are in the earth (resurrected).
15. the story of Moses reached thee?
16. When his Lord called Touw in the valley sanctified:
17. "Go to Pharaoh. Really, he rebelled!
18. Then tell him:" Would you purify yourself?
19. and that I guide thee to thy Lord that thou shouldst fear Him? "
20. He showed him the great miracle.
21. But he called it a lie and disobeyed
22. Then he turned back, went away hurriedly,
23. collected [people] and they made a proclamation,
24. and said: "I am your Lord, Most High".
25. So God seized him with the punishment of the Hereafter and the earthly.
26. There certainly is a lesson for him who fears.
27. Are you the harder to create? or heaven, He made it?
28. He raised high its height, then a perfectly ordered;
29. He darkened its night and brought out its light.
30. And as for the earth, moreover, it has scope:
31. He brought forth from it its water and pasture,
32. And the mountains hath He anchored
33. for your enjoyment, you and your cattle.
34. Then when the great cataclysm,
35. the day when man will remember what he strove for,
36. Hell will be fully visible to him who sees ...
37. As one who has exceeded the limits
38. and prefers this life,
39. then, hell will be his refuge.
40. And for him who feared standing before his Lord and forbids the soul from passion,
41. Paradise will be his refuge.
42. They ask thee concerning the Hour: "When will she drop anchor"
43. How [science] have you got to tell them?
44. His term is known only to thy Lord.
45. Thou art but a warner to him who fears.
46. The day they see it, they had tarried a day or the morning.
