About what are they asking one another?

An-Naba 78:2

عَنِ النَّبَإِ العَظيمِ

About the great news,

An-Naba 78:3

الَّذى هُم فيهِ مُختَلِفونَ

concerning which they disagree.

An-Naba 78:4

كَلّا سَيَعلَمونَ

No indeed! They will soon know.

An-Naba 78:5

ثُمَّ كَلّا سَيَعلَمونَ

Again, no indeed! They will soon know.

An-Naba 78:6

أَلَم نَجعَلِ الأَرضَ مِهٰدًا

Did We not make the earth a resting place,

An-Naba 78:7

وَالجِبالَ أَوتادًا

and the mountains pegs?

An-Naba 78:8

وَخَلَقنٰكُم أَزوٰجًا

We created you in pairs,

An-Naba 78:9

وَجَعَلنا نَومَكُم سُباتًا

and made your sleep a rest,

An-Naba 78:10

وَجَعَلنَا الَّيلَ لِباسًا

and made the night a covering,

An-Naba 78:11

وَجَعَلنَا النَّهارَ مَعاشًا

and made the day for livelihood,

An-Naba 78:12

وَبَنَينا فَوقَكُم سَبعًا شِدادًا

and built above you seven strong ones,

An-Naba 78:13

وَجَعَلنا سِراجًا وَهّاجًا

and set a blazing lamp,

An-Naba 78:14

وَأَنزَلنا مِنَ المُعصِرٰتِ ماءً ثَجّاجًا

and sent down pouring water from the rain clouds,

An-Naba 78:15

لِنُخرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَباتًا

to bring forth grain and vegetation with it,

An-Naba 78:16

وَجَنّٰتٍ أَلفافًا

and gardens of intertwined growth.

An-Naba 78:17

إِنَّ يَومَ الفَصلِ كانَ ميقٰتًا

The Day of Decision is an appointed time,

An-Naba 78:18

يَومَ يُنفَخُ فِى الصّورِ فَتَأتونَ أَفواجًا

a day when the trumpet is blown and you come in groups,

An-Naba 78:19

وَفُتِحَتِ السَّماءُ فَكانَت أَبوٰبًا

and the sky is opened and becomes gateways,

An-Naba 78:20

وَسُيِّرَتِ الجِبالُ فَكانَت سَرابًا

and the mountains are set in motion and become a mirage.

An-Naba 78:21

إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كانَت مِرصادًا

Hell is a place of ambush,

An-Naba 78:22

لِلطّٰغينَ مَـٔابًا

a place of return for the transgressors,

An-Naba 78:23

لٰبِثينَ فيها أَحقابًا

where they remain for ages.

An-Naba 78:24

لا يَذوقونَ فيها بَردًا وَلا شَرابًا

There they taste neither coolness nor drink,

An-Naba 78:25

إِلّا حَميمًا وَغَسّاقًا

except boiling water and foul discharge,

An-Naba 78:26

جَزاءً وِفاقًا

a fitting recompense.

An-Naba 78:27

إِنَّهُم كانوا لا يَرجونَ حِسابًا

They did not expect an accounting,

An-Naba 78:28

وَكَذَّبوا بِـٔايٰتِنا كِذّابًا

and utterly denied Our signs.

An-Naba 78:29

وَكُلَّ شَىءٍ أَحصَينٰهُ كِتٰبًا

We have enumerated everything in a record.

An-Naba 78:30

فَذوقوا فَلَن نَزيدَكُم إِلّا عَذابًا

So taste! We will increase you in nothing but punishment.

An-Naba 78:31

إِنَّ لِلمُتَّقينَ مَفازًا

For the mindful there is attainment,

An-Naba 78:32

حَدائِقَ وَأَعنٰبًا

gardens and grapes,

An-Naba 78:33

وَكَواعِبَ أَترابًا

and full-breasted maidens of equal age,

An-Naba 78:34

وَكَأسًا دِهاقًا

and a brimming cup.

An-Naba 78:35

لا يَسمَعونَ فيها لَغوًا وَلا كِذّٰبًا

There they hear neither idle talk nor lies,

An-Naba 78:36

جَزاءً مِن رَبِّكَ عَطاءً حِسابًا

a recompense from your Lord, a sufficient gift,

An-Naba 78:37

رَبِّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالأَرضِ وَما بَينَهُمَا الرَّحمٰنِ ۖ لا يَملِكونَ مِنهُ خِطابًا

the Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, the Entirely Merciful. They have no authority to address Him.

An-Naba 78:38

يَومَ يَقومُ الرّوحُ وَالمَلٰئِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لا يَتَكَلَّمونَ إِلّا مَن أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحمٰنُ وَقالَ صَوابًا

On the day when the Spirit and the angels stand in rows, they will not speak, except one whom the Entirely Merciful permits and who speaks rightly.

An-Naba 78:39

ذٰلِكَ اليَومُ الحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلىٰ رَبِّهِ مَـٔابًا

That is the true day. So whoever wills may take a way of return to his Lord.

An-Naba 78:40

إِنّا أَنذَرنٰكُم عَذابًا قَريبًا يَومَ يَنظُرُ المَرءُ ما قَدَّمَت يَداهُ وَيَقولُ الكافِرُ يٰلَيتَنى كُنتُ تُرٰبًا

We have warned you of a near punishment, on the day when a person sees what his hands have sent ahead, and the disbeliever says, “If only I were dust!”
