Then you, O  misguided deniers, 56:51
will certainly eat from ˹the fruit of˺ the trees of Zaqqûm,1 56:52
filling up ˹your˺ bellies with it. 56:53
Then on top of that you will drink boiling water— 56:54
and you will drink ˹it˺ like thirsty camels do.” 56:55
This will be their accommodation on the Day of Judgment. 56:56
It is We Who created you. Will you not then believe ˹in resurrection˺? 56:57
Have you considered what you ejaculate? 56:58
Is it you who create ˹a child out of˺ it, or is it We Who do so? 56:59
We have ordained death for ˹all of˺ you, and We cannot be prevented 56:60
from transforming and recreating you in forms unknown to you. 56:61
You already know how you were first created. Will you not then be mindful? 56:62
Have you considered what you sow? 56:63
Is it you who cause it to grow, or is it We Who do so? 56:64
If We willed, We could simply reduce this ˹harvest˺ to chaff, leaving you to lament, 56:65
“We have truly suffered a ˹great˺ loss. 56:66
In fact, we have been deprived ˹of our livelihood˺.” 56:67
Have you considered the water you drink? 56:68
Is it you who bring it down from the clouds, or is it We Who do so? 56:69
If We willed, We could make it salty. Will you not then give thanks? 56:70
Have you considered the fire you kindle?1 56:71
Is it you who produce its trees, or is it We Who do so? 56:72
We have made it ˹as˺ a reminder ˹of the Hellfire˺ and a provision for the travellers. 56:73
So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Greatest. 56:74
So I do swear by the positions of the stars— 56:75
and this, if only you knew, is indeed a great oath— 56:76
