Surah Al-Qiyama (The Resurrection) سُورَة القيامة

I do call to witness the Resurrection Day; ⁽¹⁾

And I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit: (Eschew Evil). ⁽²⁾

Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones? ⁽³⁾

Nay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers. ⁽⁴⁾

But man wishes to do wrong (even) in the time in front of him. ⁽⁵⁾

He questions: "When is the Day of Resurrection?" ⁽⁶⁾

At length, when the sight is dazed, ⁽⁷⁾

And the moon is buried in darkness. ⁽⁸⁾

And the sun and moon are joined together,- ⁽⁹⁾

That Day will Man say: "Where is the refuge?" ⁽¹⁰⁾

By no means! No place of safety! ⁽¹¹⁾

Before thy Lord (alone), that Day will be the place of rest. ⁽¹²⁾

That Day will Man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he put back. ⁽¹³⁾

Nay, man will be evidence against himself, ⁽¹⁴⁾

Even though he were to put up his excuses. ⁽¹⁵⁾

Move not thy tongue concerning the (Qur'an) to make haste therewith. ⁽¹⁶⁾

It is for Us to collect it and to promulgate it: ⁽¹⁷⁾

But when We have promulgated it, follow thou its recital (as promulgated): ⁽¹⁸⁾

Nay more, it is for Us to explain it (and make it clear): ⁽¹⁹⁾

Nay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life, ⁽²⁰⁾

And leave alone the Hereafter. ⁽²¹⁾

Some faces, that Day, will beam (in brightness and beauty);- ⁽²²⁾

Looking towards their Lord; ⁽²³⁾

And some faces, that Day, will be sad and dismal, ⁽²⁴⁾

In the thought that some back-breaking calamity was about to be inflicted on them; ⁽²⁵⁾

Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit), ⁽²⁶⁾

And there will be a cry, "Who is a magician (to restore him)?" ⁽²⁷⁾

And he will conclude that it was (the Time) of Parting; ⁽²⁸⁾

And one leg will be joined with another: ⁽²⁹⁾

That Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord! ⁽³⁰⁾

So he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray!- ⁽³¹⁾

But on the contrary, he rejected Truth and turned away! ⁽³²⁾

Then did he stalk to his family in full conceit! ⁽³³⁾

Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe! ⁽³⁴⁾

Again, Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe! ⁽³⁵⁾

Does man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)? ⁽³⁶⁾

Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)? ⁽³⁷⁾

Then did he become a leech-like clot; then did (Allah) make and fashion (him) in due proportion. ⁽³⁸⁾

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

Has not He, (the same), the power to give life to the dead? ⁽⁴⁰⁾
