بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ عَمَّ يَتَساءَلونَ

What are they asking one another about?

عَنِ النَّبَإِ العَظيمِ

About the extraordinary news.

الَّذي هُم فيهِ مُختَلِفونَ

That they are in disagreement over.

كَلّا سَيَعلَمونَ

Indeed, they will surely know.

أَلَم نَجعَلِ الأَرضَ مِهادًا

Didn’t We make the earth a cradle?

وَالجِبالَ أَوتادًا

And the mountains as pegs?

وَخَلَقناكُم أَزواجًا

And created you in pairs?

وَجَعَلنا نَومَكُم سُباتًا

And made your sleep for rest?

وَجَعَلنَا اللَّيلَ لِباسًا

And made the night a cover?
