Sorah An-Naba' ( The Great News ) - Verses Number 40
عَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ ( 1 ) 
Concerning what are they disputing?
عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ ( 2 )
Concerning the Great News,
الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ ( 3 )
About which they cannot agree.
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 4 )
Verily, they shall soon (come to) know!
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 5 )
Verily, verily they shall soon (come to) know!
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْأَرْضَ مِهَادًا ( 6 )
Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse,
وَالْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا ( 7 )
And the mountains as pegs?
وَخَلَقْنَاكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا ( 8 )
And (have We not) created you in pairs,
وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا ( 9 )
And made your sleep for rest,
وَجَعَلْنَا اللَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا ( 10 )
And made the night as a covering,
وَجَعَلْنَا النَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا ( 11 )
And made the day as a means of subsistence?
وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا ( 12 )
And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments,
وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا ( 13 )
And placed (therein) a Light of Splendour?
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ الْمُعْصِرَاتِ مَاءً ثَجَّاجًا ( 14 )
And do We not send down from the clouds water in abundance,
لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا ( 15 )
That We may produce therewith corn and vegetables,
وَجَنَّاتٍ أَلْفَافًا ( 16 )
And gardens of luxurious growth?
إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَاتًا ( 17 )
Verily the Day of Sorting out is a thing appointed,
يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا ( 18 )
The Day that the Trumpet shall be sounded, and ye shall come forth in crowds;
وَفُتِحَتِ السَّمَاءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَابًا ( 19 )
And the heavens shall be opened as if there were doors,
وَسُيِّرَتِ الْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا ( 20 )
And the mountains shall vanish, as if they were a mirage.
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا ( 21 )
Truly Hell is as a place of ambush,
لِّلطَّاغِينَ مَآبًا ( 22 )
For the transgressors a place of destination:
لَّابِثِينَ فِيهَا أَحْقَابًا ( 23 )
They will dwell therein for ages.
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا ( 24 )
Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink,
إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا ( 25 )
Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold,
جَزَاءً وِفَاقًا ( 26 )
A fitting recompense (for them).
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا ( 27 )
For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds),
وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كِذَّابًا ( 28 )
But they (impudently) treated Our Signs as false.
وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ كِتَابًا ( 29 )
And all things have We preserved on record.
فَذُوقُوا فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ( 30 )
"So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in Punishment."
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا ( 31 )
Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfilment of (the heart's) desires;
حَدَائِقَ وَأَعْنَابًا ( 32 )
Gardens enclosed, and grapevines;
وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا ( 33 )
And voluptuous women of equal age;
وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا ( 34 )
And a cup full (to the brim).
لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّابًا ( 35 )
No vanity shall they hear therein, nor Untruth:-
جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا ( 36 )
Recompense from thy Lord, a gift, (amply) sufficient,
رَّبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الرَّحْمَٰنِ ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا ( 37 )
(From) the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all between, (Allah) Most Gracious: None shall have power to argue with Him.
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا ( 38 )
The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand forth in ranks, none shall speak except any who is permitted by (Allah) Most Gracious, and He will say what is right.
ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الْحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ مَآبًا ( 39 )
That Day will be the sure Reality: Therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) return to his Lord!
إِنَّا أَنذَرْنَاكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ الْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ الْكَافِرُ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَابًا ( 40 )
Verily, We have warned you of a Penalty near, the Day when man will see (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the Unbeliever will say, "Woe unto me! Would that I were (metre) dust!"

- Rules Governing The Criticism Of HadithAn summarised text detailing the rules governing the Criticism of Hadeeth. From its introduction -'A hadith (pl. ahadith) is composed of two parts: the matn (text) and the isnad (chain of reporters). A text may seem to be logical and reasonable but it needs an authentic isnad with reliable reporters to be acceptable; 'Abdullah b. al-Mubarak (d. 181 AH) is reported to have said, "The isnad is part of the religion: had it not been for the isnad, whoever wished to would have said whatever he liked." During the lifetime of the Prophet (SAS) and after his death, his Companions (Sahabah) used to refer to him when quoting his sayings. The Successors (Tabi'un) followed suit; some of them used to quote the Prophet (SAS) through the Companions while others would omit the intermediate authority - such a hadith was known as mursal (loose). It was found that the missing link between the Successor and the Prophet (SAS) might be one person, i.e. a Companion, or two persons, the extra person being an older Successor who heard the hadith from the Companion.'
