    56:58Have you seen that which you emit?

  59. ءَأَنتُمْ تَخْلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْخَـٰلِقُونَ ﴿٥٩﴾

    56:59Is it you who creates it, or are We the Creator?

  61. عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمْثَـٰلَكُمْ وَنُنشِئَكُمْ فِى مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿٦١﴾

    56:61In that We will change your likenesses and produce you in that [form] which you do not know.

  62. وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ فَلَوْلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿٦٢﴾

    56:62And you have already known the first creation, so will you not remember?

  63. أَفَرَءَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ ﴿٦٣﴾

    56:63And have you seen that [seed] which you sow?

  64. ءَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُۥٓ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلزَّٰرِعُونَ ﴿٦٤﴾

    56:64Is it you who makes it grow, or are We the grower?

  65. لَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَـٰهُ حُطَـٰمًا فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ ﴿٦٥﴾

    56:65If We willed, We could make it [dry] debris, and you would remain in wonder,

  66. إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ ﴿٦٦﴾

    56:66[Saying], "Indeed, we are [now] in debt;

  67. بَلْ نَحْنُ مَحْرُومُونَ ﴿٦٧﴾

    56:67Rather, we have been deprived."

  68. أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلْمَآءَ ٱلَّذِى تَشْرَبُونَ ﴿٦٨﴾

    56:68And have you seen the water that you drink?

  69. ءَأَنتُمْ أَنزَلْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُزْنِ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنزِلُونَ ﴿٦٩﴾

    56:69Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down?

  70. لَوْ نَشَآءُ جَعَلْنَـٰهُ أُجَاجًا فَلَوْلَا تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿٧٠﴾

    56:70If We willed, We could make it bitter, so why are you not grateful?

  71. أَفَرَءَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِى تُورُونَ ﴿٧١﴾

    56:71And have you seen the fire that you ignite?

  72. ءَأَنتُمْ أَنشَأْتُمْ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمْ نَحْنُ ٱلْمُنشِـُٔونَ ﴿٧٢﴾

    56:72Is it you who produced its tree, or are We the producer?

  73. نَحْنُ جَعَلْنَـٰهَا تَذْكِرَةً وَمَتَـٰعًا لِّلْمُقْوِينَ ﴿٧٣﴾

    56:73We have made it a reminder and provision for the travelers,

  74. فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ﴿٧٤﴾

    56:74So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.

  75. ۞ فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ ﴿٧٥﴾

    56:75Then I swear by the setting of the stars,

  76. وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ ﴿٧٦﴾

    56:76And indeed, it is an oath - if you could know - [most] great.

  77. إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرْءَانٌ كَرِيمٌ ﴿٧٧﴾

    56:77Indeed, it is a noble Qur'an

  78. فِى كِتَـٰبٍ مَّكْنُونٍ ﴿٧٨﴾

    56:78In a Register well-protected;

  79. لَّا يَمَسُّهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلْمُطَهَّرُونَ ﴿٧٩﴾

    56:79None touch it except the purified.

  80. تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ﴿٨٠﴾

    56:80[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.

  81. أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ ﴿٨١﴾

    56:81Then is it to this statement that you are indifferent

  82. وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿٨٢﴾

    56:82And make [the thanks for] your provision that you deny [the Provider]?

  83. فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ ﴿٨٣﴾

    56:83Then why, when the soul at death reaches the throat

  84. وَأَنتُمْ حِينَئِذٍ تَنظُرُونَ ﴿٨٤﴾

    56:84And you are at that time looking on -

  85. وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنكُمْ وَلَـٰكِن لَّا تُبْصِرُونَ ﴿٨٥﴾

    56:85And Our angels are nearer to him than you, but you do not see -

  86. فَلَوْلَآ إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ ﴿٨٦﴾

    56:86Then why do you not, if you are not to be recompensed,

  87. تَرْجِعُونَهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ ﴿٨٧﴾

    56:87Bring it back, if you should be truthful?

  88. فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ ﴿٨٨﴾

    56:88And if the deceased was of those brought near to Allah,

  89. فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ ﴿٨٩﴾

    56:89Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.

  90. وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ﴿٩٠﴾

    56:90And if he was of the companions of the right,

  91. فَسَلَـٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ﴿٩١﴾

    56:91Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right."

  92. وَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ ﴿٩٢﴾

    56:92But if he was of the deniers [who were] astray,

  93. فَنُزُلٌ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ ﴿٩٣﴾

    56:93Then [for him is] accommodation of scalding water

  94. وَتَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ ﴿٩٤﴾

    56:94And burning in Hellfire

  95. إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِ ﴿٩٥﴾

    56:95Indeed, this is the true certainty,

  96. فَسَبِّحْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ﴿٩٦﴾

    56:96So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
