قُل إِنَّ الأَوَّلينَ وَالآخِرينَ

Say, “Certainly, the earlier and later generations.

لَمَجموعونَ إِلىٰ ميقاتِ يَومٍ مَعلومٍ

Will be gathered together for the scheduled meeting of a known day.”

ثُمَّ إِنَّكُم أَيُّهَا الضّالّونَ المُكَذِّبونَ

Then you, O misguided deniers.

لَآكِلونَ مِن شَجَرٍ مِن زَقّومٍ

Will eat from the Tree of Bitterness.

فَمالِئونَ مِنهَا البُطونَ

You will fill your bellies with it.

فَشارِبونَ شُربَ الهيمِ

Drinking as parched camels do.

هـٰذا نُزُلُهُم يَومَ الدّينِ

This is their hospitality on the Day of Reckoning.

نَحنُ خَلَقناكُم فَلَولا تُصَدِّقونَ

We created you; if only you would believe.

أَفَرَأَيتُم ما تُمنونَ

Did you observe what you ejaculate?

أَأَنتُم تَخلُقونَهُ أَم نَحنُ الخالِقونَ

Is it you who create it, or are We the ones who create?
