> Surah 75
> 
> Al Qiyamah (The Resurrection)
> 
> In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
> 
> 1.  I do call to witness the Resurrection Day;
> 
> 2.  And I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit; (eschew Evil).
> 
> 3.  Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones?
> 
> 4.  Nay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers.
> 
> 5.  But man wishes to do wrong (even) in the time in front of him.
> 
> 6.  He questions: "When is the Day of Resurrection?"
> 
> 7.  At length, when the Sight is dazed,
> 
> 8.  And the moon is buried in darkness.
> 
> 9.  And the sun and moon are joined together--
> 
> 10.  That Day will Man say "Where is the refuge?"
> 
> 11.  By no means! No place of safety!
> 
> 12.  Before thy Lord (alone) that Day will be the place of rest.
> 
> 13.  That Day will man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he put back.
> 
> 14.  Nay, man will be evidence against himself,
> 
> 15.  Even though he were to put up his excuses.
> 
> 16.  Move not thy tongue concerning the (Qur'an) to make haste therewith.
> 
> 17.  It is for Us to collect it and to promulgate it:
> 
> 18.  But when We have promulgated it, follow thou its recital (as promulgated):
> 
> 19.  Nay more, it is for Us to explain it (and make it clear):
> 
> 20.  Nay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life,
> 
> 21.  And leave alone the Hereafter.
> 
> 22.  Some faces that Day, will beam (in brightness and beauty)--
> 
> 23.  Looking towards their Lord;
> 
> 24.  And some faces, that Day, will be sad and dismal,
> 
> 25.  In the thought that some back-breaking calamity was about to be inflicted on them;
> 
> 26.  Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit),
> 
> 27.  And there will be a cry, "Who is a magician (to restore him)?"
> 
> 28.  And he will conclude that it was (the Time) of Parting;
> 
> 29.  And one leg will be joined with another:
> 
> 30.  That Day the Drive will be (all) to thy Lord!
> 
> 31.  So he gave nothing in charity, nor did he pray!--
> 
> 32.  But on the contrary, He rejected Truth and turned away!
> 
> 33.  Then did he stalk to his family in full conceit!
> 
> 34.  Woe to thee, (O man!) yea, woe!
> 
> 35.  Again, woe to thee, (O man!), yea woe!
> 
> 36.  Does Man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)?
> 
> 37.  Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)?
> 
> 38.  Then did he become a leech-like clot; then did (Allah) make and fashion (him) in due proportion.
> 
> 39.  And of him He made two sexes, male and female.
> 
> 40.  Has not He, (the same), the power to give life to the dead?
