“It will be commanded…”

In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful

\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|

SURA 37. AS-SAFFAT

\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|

22 It will be commanded: “Gather all the wrongdoers, their spouses and those whom they used to worship

23 besides Allah and show them the way to hell.

24 When they will all be gathered and angels will start pushing them towards hell, Allah shall say: “Stop for a while, they have to be questioned:

25 “What is the matter with you today that you do not help each other?”

26 Nay! On that Day they shall all be submissive.

27 Some of them will step forward to question one another.

28 The followers will say to their leaders: “It was you who used to come at us from the right hand (right hand is a symbol of authority) and forced ustowards the wrong way.”

29 They will reply: “Nay! But it was you who had no faith.

30 we had no power over you, the fact is that you were an inordinate people;

31 true is the verdict which Our Rabb has passed upon us, we shall indeed taste the punishment of our sins:

32 We misled you, for we ourselves were astray.”

33 So on that Day they shall all be partners in the punishment.

34 Thus, shall We deal with the criminals;

35 for when they were told: “There is no god except Allah,” they used to puff themselves up with pride

36 and say: “What! Should we give up our gods for the sake of a mad poet?”

37 Whereas he had come with the truth and had confirmed the message of prior Rasools.

38 Then it will be said: “You are surely going to taste the painful punishment:

39 and this reward is nothing except what you had done.

40 But the sincere devotees of Allah
41 shall have familiar sustenance
42- fruits, and shall be honored
43 in the gardens of delight.
44 Reclining face to face upon soft couches,
45 they shall be served with goblets filled at a fountain of wine,
46 a crystal-white drink, delicious to those who drink it.
47 It will neither dull their senses nor they will become drunk.
48 And beside them there will be bashful, dark big beautiful eyed virgins,
49 as if they were delicate eggs closely guarded.
50 Some of them will be asking questions to others
51 One of them will say: “I had a friend
52 who used to ask: ‘Are you really of those who affirm (the message of Islam)?
53 When we are dead and turned to dust and bones, shall we ever be brought to judgement?’”
54 It will be said: “Would you like to see him?”
55 He will look down and see his friend in the midst of hellfire.
56 Then he will say: “By Allah! You had almost ruined me.
57 Had it not been for the grace of my Rabb, I should certainly have been among those who are brought there.
58 Is it not so that we shall not die
59 after our first death and that we shall not be chastised?”
60 Most surely it is a mighty achievement.
61 For such an end, let every one strive who wish to strive.
