[74:48]

The mediation of no mediators will avail them then.

[74:49]

Why now turn they away from the Admonishment,

[74:50]

As they were frightened asses

[74:51]

Fleeing from a lion ?

[74:52]

Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).

[74:53]

Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter.

[74:54]

Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment.

[74:55]

So whosoever will may heed.

[74:56]

And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.

The Rising of the Dead

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[75:1]

Nay, I swear by the Day of Resurrection;

[75:2]

Nay, I swear by the accusing soul (that this Scripture is true).

[75:3]

Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones ?

[75:4]

Yea, verily. We are Able to restore his very fingers!

[75:5]

But man would fain deny what is before him.

[75:6]

He asketh: When will be this Day of Resurrection ?

[75:7]

But when sight is confounded

[75:8]

And the moon is eclipsed

[75:9]

And sun and moon are united,

[75:10]

On that day man will cry: Whither to flee!

[75:11]

Alas! No refuge!

[75:12]

Unto thy Lord is the recourse that day.

[75:13]

On that day man is told the tale of that which he hath sent before and left behind.

[75:14]

Oh, but man is a telling witness against himself,

[75:15]

Although he tender his excuses.

[75:16]

Stir not thy tongue herewith to hasten it.

[75:17]

Lo! upon Us (resteth) the putting together thereof and the reading thereof.

[75:18]

And when We read it, follow thou the reading;

[75:19]

Then lo! upon Us (resteth) the explanation thereof.
