Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali, Muhammad Muhsin Khan — 578

75:20 20. Not [as you think, that you (mankind) will not be resurrected and recompensed for your deeds], but you (men) love the present life of this world,

75:21 21. And neglect the Hereafter.

75:22 22. Some faces that Day shall be Nâdirah (shining and radiant).

75:23 23. Looking at their Lord (Allâh).

75:24 24. And some faces, that Day, will be Bâsirah (dark, gloomy, frowning, and sad),

75:25 25. Thinking that some calamity is about to fall on them.

75:26 26. Nay, when (the soul) reaches to the collar bone (i.e. up to the throat in its exit),

75:27 27. And it will be said: "Who can cure him (and save him from death)?"

75:28 28. And he (the dying person) will conclude that it was (the time) of parting (death);

75:29 29. And one leg will be joined with another leg (shrouded).[3]

75:30 30. The drive will be, on that Day, to your Lord (Allâh)!

75:31 31. So he (the disbeliever) neither believed (in this Qur’ân and in the Message of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) nor prayed!

75:32 32. But on the contrary, he belied (this Qur’ân and the Message of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) and turned away!

75:33 33. Then he walked in conceit (full pride) to his family admiring himself!

75:34 34. Woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

75:35 35. Again, woe to you [O man (disbeliever)]! And then (again) woe to you!

75:36 36. Does man think that he will be left neglected (without being punished or rewarded for the obligatory duties enjoined by his Lord Allâh on him)?

75:37 37. Was he not a Nutfah (mixed male and female sexual discharge) of semen emitted (poured forth)?

75:38 38. Then he became an ‘Alaqah (a clot); then (Allâh) shaped and fashioned (him) in due proportion.[4]

75:39 39. And made of him two sexes, male and female.

75:40 40. Is not He (Allâh Who does that) Able to give life to the dead? (Yes! He is Able to do all things).

76:1 1. Has there not been over man a period of time, when he was not a thing worth mentioning?

76:2 2. Verily, We have created man from Nutfah (drops) of mixed semen (sexual discharge of man and woman), in order to try him: so We made him hearer and seer.

76:3 3. Verily, We showed him the way, whether he be grateful or ungrateful.

76:4 4. Verily, We have prepared for the disbelievers iron chains, iron collars, and a blazing Fire.

76:5 5. Verily,, the Abrâr (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism), shall drink of a cup (of wine) mixed with (water from a spring in Paradise called) Kâfûr
