[55:68]

Wherein is fruit, the date-palm and pomegranate.

[55:69]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ?

[55:70]

Wherein (are found) the good and beautiful -

[55:71]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ? -

[55:72]

Fair ones, close-guarded in pavilions -

[55:73]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ? -

[55:74]

Whom neither man nor jinni will have touched before them -

[55:75]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ?

[55:76]

Reclining on green cushions and fair carpets.

[55:77]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ?

[55:78]

Blessed be the name of thy Lord, Mighty and glorious!

The Event

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[56:1]

When the event befalleth -

[56:2]

There is no denying that it will befall -

[56:3]

Abasing (some), exalting (others);

[56:4]

When the earth is shaken with a shock

[56:5]

And the hills are ground to powder

[56:6]

So that they become a scattered dust,

[56:7]

And ye will be three kinds:

[56:8]

(First) those on the right hand; what of those on the right hand ?

[56:9]

And (then) those on the left hand; what of those on the left hand ?

[56:10]

And the foremost in the race, the foremost in the race:

[56:11]

Those are they who will be brought nigh

[56:12]

In gardens of delight;

[56:13]

A multitude of those of old

[56:14]

And a few of those of later time.

[56:15]

On lined couches,

[56:16]

Reclining therein face to face.
