Surah Al-Waqi'aMakiha96In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.When the Imminent [Hour] befalls 1—there is no denying that it will befall— 2[it will be] lowering and exalting. 3When the earth is shaken violently, 4and the mountains are shattered into bits 5and become scattered dust, 6you will be three groups: 7The People of the Right Hand—and what are the People of the Right Hand?! 8And the People of the Left Hand—and what are the People of the Left Hand?! 9And the Foremost Ones are the foremost ones: 10they are the ones brought near [to Allah], 11[who will reside] in the gardens of bliss. 12A multitude from the former [generations] 13and a few from the latter ones. 14On brocaded couches 15reclining on them, face to face. 16They will be waited upon by immortal youths, 17with goblets and ewers and a cup of a clear wine, 18which causes them neither headache nor stupefaction, 19and such fruits as they prefer 20and such flesh of fowls as they desire, 21and big-eyed houris 22like guarded pearls, 23a reward for what they used to do. 24They will not hear therein any vain talk or sinful speech, 25but only the watchword, ‘Peace!’ ‘Peace!’ 26And the People of the Right Hand—what are the People of the Right Hand?! 27Amid thornless lote trees 28and clustered spathes 29and extended shade, 30and ever-flowing water 31and abundant fruits, 32neither inaccessible, nor forbidden, 33and noble spouses. 34We have created them with a special creation, 35and made them virgins, 36loving, of a like age, 37for the People of the Right Hand. 38A multitude from the former [generations] 39and a multitude from the latter [ones]. 40And the People of the Left Hand—what are the People of the Left Hand?! 41Amid infernal miasma and boiling water 42and the shadow of a dense black smoke, 43neither cool nor beneficial. 44Indeed they had been affluent before this, 45and they used to persist in the great sin. 46And they used to say, ‘What! When we are dead and become dust and bones, shall we be resurrected?! 47And our forefathers too?!’ 48Say, ‘Indeed the former and latter generations 49will all be gathered for the tryst of a known day. 50Then indeed, you, astray deniers, 51will surely eat from the Zaqqum tree 52and stuff your bellies with it, 53and drink boiling water on top of it, 54drinking like thirsty camels.’ 55Such will be the hospitality they receive on the Day of Retribution. 56We created you. Then why do you not acknowledge it? 57Have you considered the sperm that you emit? 58Is it you who create it, or are We the creator? 59We have ordained death among you, and We are not to be outmaneuvered 60from replacing you with your likes and recreating you in [a realm] you do not know. 61Certainly you have known the first genesis, then why do you not take admonition? 62Have you considered what you sow? 63Is it you who make it grow, or are We the grower? 64If We wish, We turn it into chaff, whereat you are left stunned [saying to yourselves,] 65‘Indeed we have suffered loss! 66No, we are deprived!’ 67Have you considered the water that you drink? 68Is it you who bring it down from the rain cloud, or is it We who bring [it] down? 69If We wish We can make it bitter. Then why do you not give thanks? 70Have you considered the fire that you kindle? 71Was it you who caused its tree to grow, or were We the grower? 72It was We who made it a reminder and a boon for the desert-dwellers. 73So celebrate the Name of your Lord, the All-supreme. 74 I swear by the places where the stars set! 75And indeed it is a great oath, should you know. 76This is indeed a noble Quran, 77in a guarded Book 78—no one touches it except the pure ones— 79sent down gradually from the Lord of all the worlds. 80What! Do you take lightly this discourse? 81And make your denial of it your vocation? 82So when it reaches the throat [of the dying person], 83and at that moment you are looking on [at his bedside] 84—and We are nearer to him than you are, though you do not perceive— 85then why do you not restore it, if you are not subject 86[to Divine dispensation], if you are truthful? 87Then, if he be of those brought near, 88then ease, abundance, and a garden of bliss. 89And if he be of the People of the Right Hand, 90then [he will be told,] ‘Peace be on you, from the People of the Right Hand!’ 91But if he be of the impugners, the astray ones, 92then a treat of boiling water 93and entry into hell. 94Indeed this is certain truth. 95So celebrate the Name of your Lord, the All-supreme! 96
