Sahih International — English — An-Nazi'at

So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].

Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].

Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.

He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.

And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.

And after that He spread the earth.

He extracted from it its water and its pasture,

And the mountains He set firmly

As provision for you and your grazing livestock.

But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -

The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

So as for he who transgressed

And preferred the life of the world,

Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.

But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

To your Lord is its finality.

You are only a warner for those who fear it.

It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.
