An-Naba — The Announcement

About what are they asking one another?

About the great news -

That over which they are in disagreement.

No! They are going to know.

Then, no! They are going to know.

Have We not made the earth a resting place?

And the mountains as stakes?

And We created you in pairs

And made your sleep [a means for] rest

And made the night as clothing

And made the day for livelihood

And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]

And made [therein] a burning lamp

And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water

That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation

And gardens of entwined growth.

Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time -

The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes

And the heaven is opened and will become gateways

And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage.
