You, wrapped in your cloak

arise and give warning

Proclaim the greatness of your Lord

cleanse yourself

keep away from all filth

do not be overwhelmed and weaken

be steadfast in your Lord’s cause

When the Trumpet sounds

that will be a Day of anguish for the disbelievers

They will have no ease

[Prophet], leave Me to deal with the one I created helpless

then gave vast wealth

and sons by his side

making everything easy for him––

yet he still hopes I will give him more

No! He has been stubbornly hostile to Our revelation

I will inflict a spiralling torment on him

He planned and plotted––

devilishly he plotted

ferociously he plotted!––

and looked

and frowned and scowled

and turned away and behaved arrogantly

and said, ‘This is just old sorcery

just the talk of a mortal!’

I will throw him into the scorching Fire

What will explain to you what the scorching Fire is

It spares nothing and leaves nothing

it scorches the flesh of humans

there are nineteen in charge of it––

none other than angels appointed by Us to guard Hellfire- and We have made their number a test for the disbelievers. So those who have been given the Scripture will be certain and those who believe will have their faith increased: neither those who have been given the Scripture nor the believers will have any doubts, but the sick at heart and the disbelievers will say, ‘What could God mean by this description?’ God leaves whoever He will to stray and guides whoever He will- no one knows your Lord’s forces except Him- this [description] is a warning to mortals

Yes––by the moon

By the departing night

By the shining dawn

It is one of the mightiest things

a warning to all mortals

to those of you who choose to go ahead and those who lag behind

Every soul is held in pledge for its deeds

but the Companions of the Right will stay

in Gardens and ask

about the guilty

‘What drove you to the Scorching Fire?’ [they will ask]

and they will answer, ‘We did not pray

we did not feed the poor

we indulged with others [in mocking the believers]

we denied the Day of Judgement

until the Certain End came upon us.’

No intercessor’s plea will benefit them now

What is the matter with them? Why do they turn away from the warning

like frightened asses

fleeing from a lion

Each one of them demands that a scripture be sent down to him and unrolled before his very eyes

No! Truly they have no fear of the life to come

but truly this is a reminder

Let whoever wishes to take heed do so

they will only take heed if God so wishes. He is the Lord who should be heeded, the Lord of forgiveness
