Al-Insân or Ad-Dahr

(1)Has there not been over man a period of time, when he was nothing to be mentioned?

(2)Verily, We have created man from Nutfah drops of mixed semen (discharge of man and woman), in order to try him, so We made him hearer, seer.

(3)Verily, We showed him the way, whether he be grateful or ungrateful.

(4)Verily, We have prepared for the disbelievers iron chains, iron collars, and a blazing Fire.

(5)Verily, the Abrâr (pious, who fear Allâh and avoid evil), shall drink a cup (of wine) mixed with water from a spring in Paradise called Kâfûr.

(6)A spring wherefrom the slaves of Allâh will drink, causing it to gush forth abundantly.

(7)They (are those who) fulfill (their) vows, and they fear a Day whose evil will be wide-spreading.

(8)And they give food, inspite of their love for it (or for the love of Him), to Miskin[] (poor), the orphan, and the captive,

(9)(Saying): "We feed you seeking Allâh's Countenance only. We wish for no reward, nor thanks from you.

(10)"Verily, We fear from our Lord a Day, hard and distressful, that will make the faces look horrible (from extreme dislikeness to it)."

(11)So Allâh saved them from the evil of that Day, and gave them Nadratan (a light of beauty) and joy.

(12)And their recompense shall be Paradise, and silken garments, because they were patient.

(13)Reclining therein on raised thrones, they will see there neither the excessive heat of the sun, nor the excessive bitter cold, (as in Paradise there is no sun and no moon).

(14)And the shade thereof is close upon them, and the bunches of fruit thereof will hang low within their reach.

(15)And amongst them will be passed round vessels of silver and cups of crystal,

(16)Crystal-clear, made of silver. They will determine the measure thereof according to their wishes.

(17)And they will be given to drink there a cup (of wine) mixed with Zanjabîl (ginger, etc.),

(18)A spring there, called Salsabîl.

(19)And round about them will (serve) boys of everlasting youth. If you see them, you would think them scattered pearls.

(20)And when you look there (in Paradise), you will see a delight (that cannot be imagined), and a great dominion.

(21)Their garments will be of fine green silk, and gold embroidery. They will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give them a pure drink.

(22)(And it will be said to them): "Verily, this is a reward for you, and your endeavour has been accepted."

(23)Verily! It is We Who have sent down the Qur'ân to you (O Muhammad SAW) by stages.

(24)Therefore be patient (O Muhammad SAW) and submit to the Command of your Lord (Allâh, by doing your duty to Him and by conveying His Message to mankind), and obey neither a sinner nor a disbeliever among them.

(25)And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon [i.e. offering of the Morning (Fajr), Zuhr, and 'Asr prayers].

(26)And during night, prostrate yourself to Him (i.e. the offering of Maghrib and 'Ishâ' prayers), and glorify Him a long night through (i.e. Tahajjud prayer).

(27)Verily! These (disbelievers) love the present life of this world, and put behind them a heavy Day (that will be hard).

(28)It is We Who created them, and We have made them of strong built. And when We will, We can replace them with others like them with a complete replacement.

(29)Verily! This (Verses of the Qur'ân) is an admonition, so whosoever wills, let him take a Path to his Lord (Allâh).

(30)But you cannot will, unless Allâh wills. Verily, Allâh is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise.

(31)He will admit to His Mercy whom He will and as for the Zâlimûn, (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.) He has prepared a painful torment.

Al-Qiyâmah

(1)I swear by the Day of Resurrection;

(2)And I swear by the self-reproaching person (a believer).

(3)Does man (a disbeliever) think that We shall not assemble his bones?

(4)Yes, We are Able to put together in perfect order the tips of his fingers.[]

(5)Nay! (Man denies Resurrection and Reckoning. So) he desires to continue committing sins.

(6)He asks: "When will be this Day of Resurrection?"

(7)So, when the sight shall be dazed,

(8)And the moon will be eclipsed,

(9)And the sun and moon will be joined together (by going one into the other or folded up or deprived of their light, etc.)[]

(10)On that Day man will say: "Where (is the refuge) to flee?"

(11)No! There is no refuge!

(12)Unto your Lord (Alone) will be the place of rest that Day.

(13)On that Day man will be informed of what he sent forward (of his evil or good deeds), and what he left behind (of his good or evil traditions).

(14)Nay! Man will be a witness against himself [as his body parts (skin, hands, legs, etc.) will speak about his deeds].

(15)Though he may put forth his excuses (to cover his evil deeds).

(16)Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'ân, O Muhammad SAW) to make haste therewith.

(17)It is for Us to collect it and to give you (O Muhammad SAW) the ability to recite it (the Qur'ân),

(18)And when We have recited it to you [O Muhammad SAW through Jibrael (Gabriel)], then follow you its (the Qur'ân's) recital.

(19)Then it is for Us (Allâh) to make it clear to you,

(20)Not [as you think, that you (mankind) will not be resurrected and recompensed for your deeds], but (you men) love the present life of this world,

(21)And leave (neglect) the Hereafter.

(22)Some faces that Day shall be Nâdirah (shining and radiant).

(23)Looking at their Lord (Allâh);

(24)And some faces, that Day, will be Bâsirah (dark, gloomy, frowning, and sad),

(25)Thinking that some calamity was about to fall on them;

(26)Nay, when (the soul) reaches to the collar bone (i.e. up to the throat in its exit),

(27)And it will be said: "Who can cure him and save him from death?"

(28)And he (the dying person) will conclude that it was (the time) of departing (death);

(29)And leg will be joined with another leg (shrouded)[]

(30)The drive will be, on that Day, to your Lord (Allâh)!

(31)So he (the disbeliever) neither believed (in this Qur'ân, in the Message of Muhammad SAW) nor prayed!

(32)But on the contrary, he belied (this Qur'ân and the Message of Muhammad SAW) and turned away!

(33)Then he walked in full pride to his family admiring himself!

(34)Woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

(35)Again, woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

(36)Does man think that he will be left Suda [neglected without being punished or rewarded for the obligatory duties enjoined by his Lord (Allâh) on him]?

(37)Was he not a Nutfah (mixed male and female discharge of semen) poured forth?

(38)Then he became an 'Alaqa (a clot); then (Allâh) shaped and fashioned (him) in due proportion.[]

(39)And made him in two sexes, male and female.

(40)Is not He (Allâh Who does that), Able to give life to the dead? (Yes! He is Able to do all things).
