the holy qur'an chapter 75

THE HOLY QUR'AN

"The Resurrection"

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

"75.1": Nay! I swear by the day of resurrection.

"75.2": Nay! I swear by the self-accusing soul.

"75.3": Does man think that We shall not gather his bones?

"75.4": Yea! We are able to make complete his very fingertips

"75.5": Nay! man desires to give the lie to what is before him.

"75.6": He asks: When is the day of resurrection?

"75.7": So when the sight becomes dazed,

"75.8": And the moon becomes dark,

"75.9": And the sun and the moon are brought together,

"75.10": Man shall say on that day: Whither to fly to?

"75.11": By no means! there shall be no place of refuge!

"75.12": With your Lord alone shall on that day be the place of rest.

"75.13": Man shall on that day be informed of what he sent before and (what he) put off.

"75.14": Nay! man is evidence against himself,

"75.15": Though he puts forth his excuses.

"75.16": Do not move your tongue with it to make haste with it,

"75.17": Surely on Us (devolves) the collecting of it and the reciting of it.

"75.18": Therefore when We have recited it, follow its recitation.

"75.19": Again on Us (devolves) the explaining of it.

"75.20": Nay! But you love the present life,

"75.21": And neglect the hereafter.

"75.22": (Some) faces on that day shall be bright,

"75.23": Looking to their Lord.

"75.24": And (other) faces on that day shall be gloomy,

"75.25": Knowing that there will be made to befall them some great calamity.

"75.26": Nay! When it comes up to the throat,

"75.27": And it is said: Who will be a magician?

"75.28": And he is sure that it is the (hour of) parting

"75.29": And affliction is combined with affliction;

"75.30": To your Lord on that day shall be the driving.

"75.31": So he did not accept the truth, nor did he pray,

"75.32": But called the truth a lie and turned back,

"75.33": Then he went to his followers, walking away in haughtiness.

"75.34": Nearer to you (is destruction) and nearer,

"75.35": Again (consider how) nearer to you and nearer.

"75.36": Does man think that he is to be left to wander without an aim?

"75.37": Was he not a small seed in the seminal elements,

"75.38": Then he was a clot of blood, so He created (him) then made (him) perfect.

"75.39": Then He made of him two kinds, the male and the female.

"75.40": Is not He able to give life to the dead?
