So the pleas of intercessors will be of no benefit to them.
          
            74:48
          
        
        
          Now, what is the matter with them that they are turning away from the reminder,
          
            74:49
          
        
        
          as if they were spooked zebras
          
            74:50
          
        
        
          fleeing from a lion?
          
            74:51
          
        
        
          In fact, each one of them wishes to be given a ˹personal˺ letter ˹from Allah˺ for all ˹to read˺.1
          
            74:52
          
        
        
          But no! In fact, they do not fear the Hereafter.
          
            74:53
          
        
        
          Enough! Surely this ˹Quran˺ is a reminder.
          
            74:54
          
        
        
          So let whoever wills be mindful of it.
          
            74:55
          
        
        
          But they cannot do so unless Allah wills. He ˹alone˺ is worthy to be feared and entitled to forgive.
          
            74:56
          
        
        
          I do swear by the Day of Judgment!
          
            75:1
          
        
        
          And I do swear by the self-reproaching soul!
          
            75:2
          
        
        
          Do people think We cannot reassemble their bones?
          
            75:3
          
        
        
          Yes ˹indeed˺! We are ˹most˺ capable of restoring ˹even˺ their very fingertips.1
          
            75:4
          
        
        
          Still people want to deny what is yet to come,
          
            75:5
          
        
        
          asking ˹mockingly˺, “When is this Day of Judgment?”
          
            75:6
          
        
        
          But when the sight is stunned,
          
            75:7
          
        
        
          and the moon is dimmed,
          
            75:8
          
        
        
          and the sun and the moon are brought together,1
          
            75:9
          
        
        
          on that Day one will cry, “Where is the escape?”
          
            75:10
          
        
        
          But no! There will be no refuge.
          
            75:11
          
        
        
          On that Day all will end up before your Lord.
          
            75:12
          
        
        
          All will then be informed of what they have sent forth and left behind.
          
            75:13
          
        
        
          In fact, people will testify against their own souls,1
          
            75:14
          
        
        
          despite the excuses they come up with.
          
            75:15
          
        
        
          Do not rush your tongue trying to memorize ˹a revelation of˺ the Quran.
          
            75:16
          
        
        
          It is certainly upon Us to ˹make you˺ memorize and recite it.
          
            75:17
          
        
        
          So once We have recited a revelation ˹through Gabriel˺, follow its recitation ˹closely˺.
          
            75:18
          
        
        
          Then it is surely upon Us to make it clear ˹to you˺.
          
            75:19
