Surat An-Nāzi`āt (Those who drag forth) - سورة النازعات

: By those (angels) who pull out (the souls of the disbelievers and the wicked) with great violence;

: By those (angels) who gently take out (the souls of the believers);

: And by those that swim along (i.e. angels or planets in their orbits, etc.).

: And by those that press forward as in a race (i.e. the angels or stars or the horses, etc.).

: And by those angels who arrange to do the Commands of their Lord, (so verily, you disbelievers will be called to account).

: On the Day (when the first blowing of the Trumpet is blown), the earth and the mountains will shake violently (and everybody will die),

: The second blowing of the Trumpet follows it (and everybody will be raised up),

: (Some) hearts that Day will shake with fear and anxiety.

: Their eyes cast down.

: They say: "Shall we indeed be returned to (our) former state of life?

: "Even after we are crumbled bones?"

: They say: "It would in that case, be a return with loss!"

: But only, it will be a single Zajrah [shout (i.e., the second blowing of the Trumpet)]. (See Verse 37:19).

: When, behold, they find themselves over the earth alive after their death,

: Has there come to you the story of Musa (Moses)?

: When his Lord called him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,

: Go to Fir'aun (Pharaoh), verily, he has transgressed all bounds (in crimes, sins, polytheism, disbelief, etc.).

: And say to him: "Would you purify yourself (from the sin of disbelief by becoming a believer)",

: And that I guide you to your Lord, so you should fear Him?

: Then [Musa (Moses)] showed him the great sign (miracles).

: But [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] belied and disobeyed;

: Then he turned his back, striving hard (against Allah).

: Then he gathered his people and cried aloud,

: Saying: "I am your lord, most high",

: So Allah, seized him with punishment for his last [i.e. his saying: "I am your lord, most high") (see Verse 79:24)] and first [(i.e. his saying, "O chiefs! I know not that you have a god other than I" (see Verse 28:38)] transgression.

: Verily, in this is an instructive admonition for whosoever fears Allah.

: Are you more difficult to create, or is the heaven that He constructed?

: He raised its height, and He has equally ordered it,

: Its night He covers with darkness, and its forenoon He brings out (with light).

: And after that He spread the earth;

: And brought forth therefrom its water and its pasture;

: And the mountains He has fixed firmly;

: (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle.

: But when there comes the greatest catastrophe (i.e. the Day of Recompense, etc.),

: The Day when man shall remember what he strove for,

: And Hell-fire shall be made apparent in full view for (every) one who sees,

: Then, for him who Tagha (transgressed all bounds, in disbelief, oppression and evil deeds of disobedience to Allah).

: And preferred the life of this world (by following his evil desires and lusts),

: Verily, his abode will be Hell-fire;

: But as for him who feared standing before his Lord, and restrained himself from impure evil desires, and lusts.

: Verily, Paradise will be his abode.

: They ask you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) about the Hour, - when will be its appointed time?

: You have no knowledge to say anything about it,

: To your Lord belongs (the knowledge of) the term thereof?

: You (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) are only a warner for those who fear it,

: The Day they see it, (it will be) as if they had not tarried (in this world) except an afternoon or a morning.
