78 Surah An Naba – The Great News

In the name of Allah, the entirely Merciful, the especially Merciful

1) “What are the disbelievers asking one another about?”
2) They are talking about the Great News of the Day of Judgement
3) Over which they disagree
4) Surely, they will soon know the reality of it!
5) Yes! For sure they will soon know!
6) Did Allah not make the Earth as a floor?
7) and ˹made˺ the mountains as ˹its˺ pegs
8) And Allah has created you in pairs
9) and made your sleep a means of rest,
10) and made the night as a cover,
11) and made the day for working and earning
12) And Allah built above you seven mighty ˹skies.
13) and placed in them a shining lamp, burning brightly
14) And sent down pouring water from the rain clouds
15) Through which Allah grows grains and vegetation
16) And gardens full of greenery
17) Surely, there is a time fixed for the Day of Judgement
18) It is the day when the Horn will be blown and you will come forward in crowds, groups after groups.
19) The sky will split open and gates will appear in it
20) and the mountains will be blown away and they will be moving, you will see them strong in front of you and then they will just disappear.
21) Surely, Hell has been lying in wait
23) Where they will live for endless ages
24) They will taste nothing cool in it, nor any drink,
25) except boiling water and oozing pus—
26) Their punishment will be fair and just according to their crimes.
27) They thought they will never have to answer anyone for their actions
28) And they totally refused the signs of Allah
28) And they totally refused the signs of Allah
29) And Allah has recorded each and everything they did in writing
30) It will be said to the disbelievers, “ Now taste the punishment! for now all you will get is more punishment!”
31) Those who fear Allah’s displeasure and do good deeds, they will surely have reward
32) Of Gardens and grapes
33) And companions of equal age
34) And cups filled to the top
35) They will not hear in there any vain talk, nor lies,
36) This will be a fitting reward as a generous gift from Allah
37) Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between, the Most Merciful. No one will dare speak to Him
38) On that Day the Angel JIbrail and the other angels will stand in rows. None will talk, except those granted permission by Allah - the Most Merciful and whose words are true.
39) That is the Day which is sure to come. So whoever wishes to, let them follow the right path.
40) Allah has surely warned you of a punishment which is near- the Day when man will see all the actions he did in the world, and the disbeliever will say: "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"
