35 There is naught but our first death and we shall not be raised again. |
36 So bring our fathers (back), if you are truthful. |
37 Are they better or the people of Tubba‘, and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty. |
38 And We did not create the heavens and the earth and that which is between them in sport. |
39 We created them not but with truth, but most of them know not. |
40 Surely the day of Decision is the term for them all, |
41 The day when friend will avail friend in naught, nor will they be helped — |
42 Save those on whom Allāh has mercy. Surely He is the Mighty, the Merciful. |
43 Surely the tree of Zaqqūm |
44 Is the food of the sinful, |
45 Like molten brass; it seethes in (their) bellies |
46 Like boiling water. |
47 Seize him, then drag him into the midst of hell; |
48 Then pour on his head of the torment of boiling water — |
49 Taste — thou art forsooth the mighty, the honourable! |
50 Surely this is what you doubted. |
51 Those who keep their duty are indeed in a secure place — |
52 In gardens and springs, |
53 Wearing fine and thick silk, facing one another — |
54 Thus (shall it be). And We shall join them to pure, beautiful ones. |
55 They call therein for every fruit in security — |
56 They taste not therein death, except the first death; and He will save them from the chastisement of hell — |
57 A grace from thy Lord. This is the great achievement. |
58 So We have made it easy in thy tongue that they may mind. |
59 Wait then; surely they (too) are waiting. |
