| | Musharraf Hussain rendition of Surah The Rising of the Dead, Resurrection(al-Qiyamah) --- |
---|
75:1 | | I swear by the Day of Judgement, |
75:2 | | and I swear by the self-critical soul! |
75:3 | | Do people think We won’t put together their disintegrated bones? |
75:4 | | Of course, We are capable of restoring even his fingertips. |
75:5 | | Yet they openly commit evil in front of Him, |
75:6 | | and mockingly ask: “When will Judgement Day come?” |
75:7 | | When it comes eyes will be dazzled, |
75:8 | | the moon eclipsed, |
75:9 | | the sun and the moon will appear to be joined together, |
75:10 | | and man will ask that Day: “Where can we flee to?” |
75:11 | | No, there is no safe place. |
75:12 | | That Day, you will be brought before your Lord: |
75:13 | | people will learn what they achieved and what they failed to do. |
75:14 | | They will have evidence against themselves, |
75:15 | | but still offer excuses |
75:16 | | Messenger, don’t read the Quran too fast to memorise it. |
75:17 | | We are responsible for its compilation and recital. |
75:18 | | So when We recite it, then follow its recitation. |
75:19 | | It is also Our responsibility to explain it clearly to you |
75:20 | | You love the fleeting world, |
75:21 | | and dislike the Hereafter. |
75:22 | | That Day, some faces will be shining, |
75:23 | | happily watching their Lord. |
75:24 | | That Day, other faces will be gloomy and grave, |
75:25 | | sensing the occurrence of a back-breaking sufferings. |
75:26 | | Nay, when the soul reaches the breastbone, |
75:27 | | it will be said, “Where’s the charmer doctor who can heal?” |
75:28 | | He will know it’s time to leave, |
75:29 | | the legs will be straightened and brought together; |
75:30 | | then that Day he will be driven toward Your Lord |
75:31 | | He didn’t believe or pray, |
75:32 | | instead he denied and turned his back, |
75:33 | | walked arrogantly amid his people. |
75:34 | | Yet, the Hereafter is drawing closer and closer to you, |
75:35 | | and even more and more closer to you. |
75:36 | | Do people think they aren’t answerable to Allah? |
75:37 | | Weren’t they a drop of emitted semen? |
75:38 | | Then a germ cell that Allah created and perfected? |
75:39 | | Then He made from it the pair: the male and the female. |
75:40 | | Isn’t He the One Who did that? So, isn’t He capable of bringing back to life the dead |
