The Quran

By those ˹angels˺ stripping out ˹evil souls˺ harshly

and those pulling out ˹good souls˺ gently

and those gliding ˹through heavens˺ swiftly

and those taking the lead vigorously

and those conducting affairs ˹obediently˺

˹Consider˺ the Day ˹when˺ the quaking Blast will come to pass

followed by a second Blast

˹The deniers’˺ hearts on that Day will be trembling ˹in horror˺

with their eyes downcast

˹But now˺ they ask ˹mockingly˺, “Will we really be restored to our former state

even after we have been reduced to decayed bones?”

Adding, “Then such a return would be a ˹total˺ loss ˹for us˺!”

But indeed, it will take only one ˹mighty˺ Blast

and at once they will be above ground

Has the story of Moses reached you ˹O Prophet˺

His Lord called him in the sacred valley of Ṭuwa

˹commanding,˺ “Go to Pharaoh, for he has truly transgressed ˹all bounds˺

And say, ‘Would you ˹be willing to˺ purify yourself

and let me guide you to your Lord so that you will be in awe ˹of Him˺?’”

Then Moses showed him the great sign

but he denied and disobeyed ˹Allah˺

then turned his back, striving ˹against the truth˺

Then he summoned ˹his people˺ and called out

saying, “I am your lord, the most high!”

So Allah overtook him, making him an example in this life and the next

Surely in this is a lesson for whoever stands in awe of ˹Allah˺

Which is harder to create: you or the sky? He built it

raising it high and forming it flawlessly

He dimmed its night, and brought forth its daylight

As for the earth, He spread it out as well

bringing forth its water and pastures

and setting the mountains firmly ˹upon it˺—

all as ˹a means of˺ sustenance for you and your animals

But, when the Supreme Disaster comes to pass—

the Day every person will remember all ˹their˺ striving

and the Hellfire will be displayed for all to see—

then as for those who transgressed

and preferred the ˹fleeting˺ life of this world

the Hellfire will certainly be ˹their˺ home

And as for those who were in awe of standing before their Lord and restrained themselves from ˹evil˺ desires

Paradise will certainly be ˹their˺ home

They ask you ˹O Prophet˺ regarding the Hour, “When will it be?”

But it is not for you to tell its time

That knowledge rests with your Lord ˹alone˺

Your duty is only to warn whoever is in awe of it

On the Day they see it, it will be as if they had stayed ˹in the world˺ no more than one evening or its morning
