Sorah Al-Waqi'ah ( The Event ) - Verses Number 96
فَأَصْحَابُ الْمَيْمَنَةِ مَا أَصْحَابُ الْمَيْمَنَةِ ( 8 )

Then (there will be) the Companions of the Right Hand;- What will be the Companions of the Right Hand?
وَأَصْحَابُ الْمَشْأَمَةِ مَا أَصْحَابُ الْمَشْأَمَةِ ( 9 )

And the Companions of the Left Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Left Hand?
وَالسَّابِقُونَ السَّابِقُونَ ( 10 )

And those Foremost (in Faith) will be Foremost (in the Hereafter).
عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّوْضُونَةٍ ( 15 )

(They will be) on Thrones encrusted (with gold and precious stones),
يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَانٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ( 17 )

Round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness),
بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ ( 18 )

With goblets, (shining) beakers, and cups (filled) out of clear-flowing fountains:
لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ( 19 )

No after-ache will they receive therefrom, nor will they suffer intoxication:
لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا ( 25 )

Not frivolity will they hear therein, nor any taint of ill,-
وَأَصْحَابُ الْيَمِينِ مَا أَصْحَابُ الْيَمِينِ ( 27 )

The Companions of the Right Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Right Hand?
وَأَصْحَابُ الشِّمَالِ مَا أَصْحَابُ الشِّمَالِ ( 41 )

The Companions of the Left Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Left Hand?
فِي سَمُومٍ وَحَمِيمٍ ( 42 )

(They will be) in the midst of a Fierce Blast of Fire and in Boiling Water,
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ( 45 )

For that they were wont to be indulged, before that, in wealth (and luxury),
وَكَانُوا يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى الْحِنثِ الْعَظِيمِ ( 46 )

And persisted obstinately in wickedness supreme!
وَكَانُوا يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ( 47 )

And they used to say, "What! when we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised up again?-
لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَاتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ ( 50 )

"All will certainly be gathered together for the meeting appointed for a Day well-known.
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا الضَّالُّونَ الْمُكَذِّبُونَ ( 51 )

"Then will ye truly,- O ye that go wrong, and treat (Truth) as Falsehood!-
فَشَارِبُونَ شُرْبَ الْهِيمِ ( 55 )

"Indeed ye shall drink like diseased camels raging with thirst!"
نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ ( 57 )

It is We Who have created you: why will ye not witness the Truth?
أَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُ أَمْ نَحْنُ الْخَالِقُونَ ( 59 )

Is it ye who create it, or are We the Creators?
نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ الْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ ( 60 )

We have decreed Death to be your common lot, and We are not to be frustrated
عَلَىٰ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَالَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِي مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ( 61 )

from changing your Forms and creating you (again) in (forms) that ye know not.
وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ النَّشْأَةَ الْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ( 62 )

And ye certainly know already the first form of creation: why then do ye not celebrate His praises?
أَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُ أَمْ نَحْنُ الزَّارِعُونَ ( 64 )

Is it ye that cause it to grow, or are We the Cause?
لَوْ نَشَاءُ لَجَعَلْنَاهُ حُطَامًا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ ( 65 )

Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry powder, and ye would be left in wonderment,
أَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ الْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ الْمُنزِلُونَ ( 69 )

Do ye bring it down (in rain) from the cloud or do We?
لَوْ نَشَاءُ جَعَلْنَاهُ أُجَاجًا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ ( 70 )

Were it Our Will, We could make it salt (and unpalatable): then why do ye not give thanks?
أَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَا أَمْ نَحْنُ الْمُنشِئُونَ ( 72 )

Is it ye who grow the tree which feeds the fire, or do We grow it?
نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَاهَا تَذْكِرَةً وَمَتَاعًا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ ( 73 )

We have made it a memorial (of Our handiwork), and an article of comfort and convenience for the denizens of deserts.
فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِيمِ ( 74 )

Then celebrate with praises the name of thy Lord, the Supreme!
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِ ( 75 )

Furthermore I call to witness the setting of the Stars,-
وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ( 76 )

And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if ye but knew,-
أَفَبِهَٰذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ ( 81 )

Is it such a Message that ye would hold in light esteem?
وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ ( 82 )

And have ye made it your livelihood that ye should declare it false?
فَلَوْلَا إِذَا بَلَغَتِ الْحُلْقُومَ ( 83 )

Then why do ye not (intervene) when (the soul of the dying man) reaches the throat,-
وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ ( 85 )

But We are nearer to him than ye, and yet see not,-
فَلَوْلَا إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ ( 86 )

Then why do ye not,- If you are exempt from (future) account,-
تَرْجِعُونَهَا إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ( 87 )

Call back the soul, if ye are true (in the claim of independence)?
فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ ( 89 )

(There is for him) Rest and Satisfaction, and a Garden of Delights.
وَأَمَّا إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْيَمِينِ ( 90 )

And if he be of the Companions of the Right Hand,
فَسَلَامٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْيَمِينِ ( 91 )

(For him is the salutation), "Peace be unto thee", from the Companions of the Right Hand.
