أَإِذا مِتنا وَكُنّا تُرابًا وَعِظامًا أَإِنّا لَمَبعوثونَ

When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

أَوَآباؤُنَا الأَوَّلونَ

And our forefathers [as well]?"

قُل نَعَم وَأَنتُم داخِرونَ

Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible."

فَإِنَّما هِيَ زَجرَةٌ واحِدَةٌ فَإِذا هُم يَنظُرونَ

It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing.

وَقالوا يا وَيلَنا هـٰذا يَومُ الدّينِ

They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."

احشُرُوا الَّذينَ ظَلَموا وَأَزواجَهُم وَما كانوا يَعبُدونَ

[The angels will be ordered], "Gather those who committed wrong, their kinds, and what they used to worship

مِن دونِ اللَّهِ فَاهدوهُم إِلىٰ صِراطِ الجَحيمِ

Other than Allah, and guide them to the path of Hellfire

وَقِفوهُم ۖ إِنَّهُم مَسئولونَ

And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned."

ما لَكُم لا تَناصَرونَ

[They will be asked], "What is [wrong] with you? Why do you not help each other?"

بَل هُمُ اليَومَ مُستَسلِمونَ

But they, that Day, are in surrender.
