Surah Al-Waqia
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the Event (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) befalls. (1) And there can be no denial of its befalling. (2) Bringing low (some — those who will enter Hell) Exalting (others- those who will enter Paradise). (Tafsir Ibn-Kathir) (3) When the earth will be shaken with a terrible shake. (4) And the mountains will be powdered to dust. (5) So that they will become floating dust particles. (6) And you (all) will be in three groups. (7) So those on the Right Hand (i.e. those who will be given their Records in their right hands) — how (fortunate) will be those on the Right Hand! (As a respect for them, because they will enter Paradise). (8) And those on the Left Hand (i.e. those who will be given their Record in their left hands) — how (unfortunate) will be those on the Left Hand? (As a disgrace for them, because they will enter Hell). (9) And those foremost [(in Islâmic Faith of Monotheism and in performing righteous deeds) in the life of this world on the very first call for to embrace Islâm,] will be foremost (in Paradise). (10) These will be those nearest (to Allâh). (11) In the Gardens of Delight (Paradise). (12) A multitude of those (foremost) will be from the first generations (who embraced Islâm). (13) And a few of those (foremost) will be from the later generations. (14) (They will be) on thrones woven with gold and precious stones, (15) Reclining thereon, face to face. (16) Immortal boys will go around them (serving). (17) With cups, and jugs, and a glass of the flowing wine, (18) Wherefrom they will get neither any aching of the head, nor any intoxication. (19) And with fruit, that they may choose. (20) And with the flesh of fowls that they desire. (21) And (there will be) Hur (fair females) with wide, lovely eyes (as wives for the pious), (22) Like unto preserved pearls. (23) A reward for what they used to do. (24) No Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk) will they hear therein, nor any sinful speech (like backbiting). (25) But only the saying of: Salâm!, Salâm! (greetings with peace)[] ! (26) And those on the Right Hand- how (fortunate) will be those on the Right Hand? (27) (They will be) among thornless lote-trees, (28) And Among Talh (banana-trees) with fruits piled one above another, (29) In shade long-extended, (30) And by water flowing constantly, (31) And fruit in plenty, (32) Whose supply is not cut off (by change of season) nor are they out of reach. (33) And on couches or thrones, raised high. (34) Verily, We have created them (maidens) of special creation. (35) And made them virgins. (36) Loving (their husbands only), (and) of equal age. (37) For those on the Right Hand. (38) A multitude of those (on the Right Hand) will be from the first generation (who embraced Islâm). (39) And a multitude of those (on the Right Hand) will be from the later generations. (40) And those on the Left Hand how (unfortunate) will be those on the Left Hand? (41)
