In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
[Music] The Inevitable Event -
What is the Inevitable Event? And what can make you
know the
Inevitable Event? The Thamud and the ‘Ad denied the terrible calamity. Thamud, so they were destroyed by the tyrant. And I, ‘Ad, was destroyed by a furious, violent wind. He subjected it to them for seven nights and eight days in succession. So you would see the people therein fallen down as if they were hollow trunks of palm trees. Do you see any remnant of them? And
Pharaoh and those before him and the overturned
cities came with
sin, so they disobeyed the Messenger of their Lord, so He seized them with a mighty seizure. When the
water rose, We carried you in the
ship that We might make it a reminder for you and a listening ear retain it.
Then when the Trumpet is blown with a
single blast, and the earth and the mountains are lifted up and crushed with a single crushing, then on that Day the
Inevitable will occur, and the heaven will split with water, and it will be that Day fragile, and the angels will be on its sides, and the Throne of your Lord will be borne above them on that Day eight. On that Day you will be exposed, not a
secret of you will be hidden. Then when the Trumpet is blown with a
single blast, and the earth and the mountains are lifted up and crushed with a
single crushing,
then on that Day the Inevitable will occur, and
the heaven will be cleft asunder, and the
angels will be on
its sides, and the Throne of your Lord will be borne above them on
that Day
eight. On
that Day you will be exposed, not a secret of you will be
hidden. Then as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say, "Here,
or read my
record? Indeed, I thought that I would be faced with
my account." So he will be in a
pleasant life in Paradise.
High are its fruits within easy reach.
Eat and drink in
pleasure for what you sent forth in the days
gone by. But he who is given his book in his right hand will say, “Here am I!” He will say, “Here am I! Read my
book! Indeed, I
thought that I would meet
my account!” So ​​he will be in a
pleasant life in a
high Paradise, its fruits within easy reach.
Eat and drink in
pleasure for what you sent forth in the days
gone by. [Applause] But he who is given his book in his left hand will say, “
Oh, would that I had received
my book and not known what my
account was! Oh, would that it were final! What good would it have been for me? My power has perished!
Take him and
chain him; then
cast him into Hell; then into a chain whose length is
seventy cubits and
enter him.” But he who is given his book in his left hand will say, “Oh, would
that I had not received
my book and not known what my
account was! Oh, would that it were final! What good would it have been for me? My
power has perished! Take
him and chain him;
then cast him into Hell;
then into a chain whose length is seventy cubits and
enter him. Indeed, he did not believe in Allah, the
Almighty, and did not encourage [people] to eat.” The
poor man has no
protector or food here today except from
[music]
washing, which none
eat except sinners.
[music] I
swear by what
you see and what you do not
see that it is the
word of an honored messenger, and it is not the word of a
poet. Little do you
believe, nor is it the word of a
soothsayer. Little do you remember. A
revelation from the Lord of the
worlds. And if he had fabricated against Us some
sayings, We would have seized him by the
right hand, then We would have cut from him the
aorta. And you cannot prevent anyone from it. And indeed, it is a
reminder for the
righteous. And indeed, We know that
among you are
deniers. And indeed, it is a
regret for the
disbelievers. And indeed, it is the certainty of
truth. So glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
