Did We not create you from a humble fluid,
77:20
placing it in a secure place
77:21
until an appointed time?1
77:22
We ˹perfectly˺ ordained ˹its development˺. How excellent are We in doing so!
77:23
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:24
Have We not made the earth a lodging
77:25
for the living and the dead,
77:26
and placed upon it towering, firm mountains, and given you fresh water to drink?
77:27
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:28
˹The disbelievers will be told,˺ “Proceed into that ˹Fire˺ which you used to deny!
77:29
Proceed into the shade ˹of smoke˺ which rises in three columns,
77:30
providing neither coolness nor shelter from the flames.
77:31
Indeed, it hurls sparks ˹as big˺ as huge castles,
77:32
and ˹as dark˺ as black camels.”1
77:33
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:34
On that Day they will not ˹be in a position to˺ speak,
77:35
nor will they be permitted to offer excuses.
77:36
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:37
˹They will be told by Allah,˺ “This is the Day of ˹Final˺ Decision: We have gathered you along with earlier disbelievers ˹for punishment˺.
77:38
So if you have a scheme ˹to save yourselves˺, then use it against Me.”
77:39
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:40
Indeed, the righteous will be amid ˹cool˺ shade and springs
77:41
and any fruit they desire.
77:42
˹They will be told,˺ “Eat and drink happily for what you used to do.”
77:43
Surely this is how We reward the good-doers.
77:44
˹But˺ woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:45
“Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little while, ˹for˺ you are truly wicked.”
77:46
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:47
When it is said to them, “Bow down ˹before Allah,” they do not bow.
77:48
Woe on that Day to the deniers!
77:49
So what message after this ˹Quran˺ would they believe in?
77:50
