75. Al-Qiyaama سُورَةُ القِيَامَةِ

Yusuf AliI do call to witness the Resurrection Day

Yusuf AliAnd I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit: (Eschew Evil)

Yusuf AliDoes man think that We cannot assemble his bones

Yusuf AliNay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers

Yusuf AliBut man wishes to do wrong (even) in the time in front of him

Yusuf AliHe questions: "When is the Day of Resurrection

Yusuf AliAt length, when the sight is dazed

Yusuf AliAnd the moon is buried in darkness

Yusuf AliAnd the sun and moon are joined together

Yusuf AliThat Day will Man say: "Where is the refuge

Yusuf AliBy no means! No place of safety

Yusuf AliBefore thy Lord (alone), that Day will be the place of rest

Yusuf AliThat Day will Man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he put back

Yusuf AliNay, man will be evidence against himself

Yusuf AliEven though he were to put up his excuses

Yusuf AliMove not thy tongue concerning the (Qur'an) to make haste therewith

Yusuf AliIt is for Us to collect it and to promulgate it

Yusuf AliBut when We have promulgated it, follow thou its recital (as promulgated)

Yusuf AliNay more, it is for Us to explain it (and make it clear)

Yusuf AliNay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life

Yusuf AliAnd leave alone the Hereafter

Yusuf AliSome faces, that Day, will beam (in brightness and beauty)

Yusuf AliLooking towards their Lord

Yusuf AliAnd some faces, that Day, will be sad and dismal

Yusuf AliIn the thought that some back-breaking calamity was about to be inflicted on them

Yusuf AliYea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit)

Yusuf AliAnd there will be a cry, "Who is a magician (to restore him)

Yusuf AliAnd he will conclude that it was (the Time) of Parting

Yusuf AliAnd one leg will be joined with another

Yusuf AliThat Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord

Yusuf AliSo he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray

Yusuf AliBut on the contrary, he rejected Truth and turned away

Yusuf AliThen did he stalk to his family in full conceit

Yusuf AliWoe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe

Yusuf AliAgain, Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe

Yusuf AliDoes man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)

Yusuf AliWas he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)

Yusuf AliThen did he become a leech-like clot; then did (God) make and fashion (him) in due proportion

Yusuf AliAnd of him He made two sexes, male and female

Yusuf AliHas not He, (the same), the power to give life to the dead
