بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ وَالنّازِعاتِ غَرقًا

By those [angels] who extract with violence

وَالنّاشِطاتِ نَشطًا

And [by] those who remove with ease

وَالسّابِحاتِ سَبحًا

And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming

فَالسّابِقاتِ سَبقًا

And those who race each other in a race

يَومَ تَرجُفُ الرّاجِفَةُ

On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],

تَتبَعُهَا الرّادِفَةُ

There will follow it the subsequent [one].

قُلوبٌ يَومَئِذٍ واجِفَةٌ

Hearts, that Day, will tremble,

أَبصارُها خاشِعَةٌ

Their eyes humbled.

يَقولونَ أَإِنّا لَمَردودونَ فِي الحافِرَةِ

They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?
