| 40. Verily, the Day of Decision is the appointed time for all of them. 41. The day when a friend shall not avail a friend at all, nor shall they be helped, 42. Save those to whom ALLAH shows mercy. Surely, HE is the Mighty, the Merciful. 43. Verily, the tree of Zaqqum 44. Will be the food of the sinful; 45. Like molten copper it will boil in their bellies, 46. As the boiling of scalding water. 47. WE shall command the angels: `Seize him and drag him into the midst of the blazing Fire; 48. `Then pour upon his head the torment of boiling water.' 49. And shall say to him, `Taste it. Thou didst consider thyself the mighty, the honourable one; 50. `This, indeed, is what you doubted.' 51. Verily, the righteous will be in a place of security, 52. Amid gardens and springs, 53. Attired in fine silk and heavy brocade, facing one another. 54. Thus will it be. And WE shall give them as companions fair maidens, having large, black eyes. 55. They will call therein for every kind of fruit, in peace and security. 56. They will not taste death therein, save the first death; and God will save them from the punishment of the blazing Fire, 57. As an act of grace from thy Lord. That is the supreme achievement. 58. And WE have made the Qur'an easy in thy tongue that they may take heed. 59. So wait thou; they, too, are waiting. |
