75 : 4

بَلَىٰ قَادِرِينَ عَلَىٰ أَنْ نُسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ

يَقُولُ الْإِنْسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ

That Day will Man say: "Where is the refuge?"

75 : 11

75 : 18

فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ

But when We have promulgated it, follow thou its recital (as promulgated):

75 : 19

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ

Nay more, it is for Us to explain it (and make it clear):

75 : 20

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ

Nay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life,

75 : 21

وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ

And leave alone the Hereafter.

75 : 22

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَاضِرَةٌ

Some faces, that Day, will beam (in brightness and beauty);-

75 : 23

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ

Looking towards their Lord;

75 : 24

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ

And some faces, that Day, will be sad and dismal,

75 : 25

تَظُنُّ أَنْ يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ

In the thought that some back-breaking calamity was about to be inflicted on them;

75 : 26

كَلَّا إِذَا بَلَغَتِ التَّرَاقِيَ

Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit),

75 : 27

وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍ

75 : 30

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ

That Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord!

75 : 31

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ

So he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray!-

75 : 32

وَلَٰكِنْ كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

But on the contrary, he rejected Truth and turned away!

75 : 33

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّىٰ

Then did he stalk to his family in full conceit!

75 : 34

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe!

75 : 35

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

Again, Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe!

75 : 36

أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنْ يُتْرَكَ سُدًى

Does man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)?

75 : 37

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِنْ مَنِيٍّ يُمْنَىٰ

Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)?

75 : 38

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Then did he become a leech-like clot; then did (Allah) make and fashion (him) in due proportion.

75 : 39

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَىٰ

And of him He made two sexes, male and female.

75 : 40

أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَىٰ أَنْ يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَىٰ

Has not He, (the same), the power to give life to the dead?
