The Pluckers -An-Nazi'at
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
	1		[ 79. 1 ] By the pluckers ( the angels of death ), violently plucking ( the souls of the unbelievers ),
	2		[ 79. 2 ] by the drawers ( the angels of death ), gently drawing ( the souls of the believers ),
	3		[ 79. 3 ] by the swimmers ( angels ) swimming gently
	4		[ 79. 4 ] and the outstrippers ( angels ), outstripping,
	5		[ 79. 5 ] by the managers ( angels ) affair.
	6		[ 79. 6 ] On the Day, the shiverer shivers
	7		[ 79. 7 ] followed by the succeeding,
	8		[ 79. 8 ] hearts will throb on that Day
	9		[ 79. 9 ] and their eyes will be humbled.
	10		[ 79. 10 ] They say: 'What, are we being restored as we were before,
	11		[ 79. 11 ] even after we are fragmented bones?'
	12		[ 79. 12 ] They will say: 'Then we are returned lost!'
	13		[ 79. 13 ] But it will be only a single blow,
	14		[ 79. 14 ] and they will be upon the surface of the earth ( alive ).
	15		[ 79. 15 ] Have you received the story of Moses?
	16		[ 79. 16 ] His Lord called to him in the Sacred Valley of Towa,
	17		[ 79. 17 ] saying 'Go to Pharaoh, he has become exceedingly insolent,
	18		[ 79. 18 ] and say: " Will you purify yourself,
	19		[ 79. 19 ] that I might guide you to your Lord, so that you fear ( Him ). "
	20		[ 79. 20 ] He showed him the mighty sign,
	21		[ 79. 21 ] but he belied and disobeyed,
	22		[ 79. 22 ] and hastily turned away,
	23		[ 79. 23 ] then, he gathered, proclaimed, then said:
	24		[ 79. 24 ] 'I am your lord, the most high!'
	25		[ 79. 25 ] So Allah seized him with the punishment of the Everlasting Life, and of this world.
	26		[ 79. 26 ] Surely, in this there is a lesson for he that fears!
	27		[ 79. 27 ] What, are you harder to create than the heaven which He has built?
	28		[ 79. 28 ] He raised it high and leveled it,
	29		[ 79. 29 ] and darkened its night and brought forth its morning.
	30		[ 79. 30 ] And the earth He extended after that;
	31		[ 79. 31 ] and then brought from it its water and pastures.
	32		[ 79. 32 ] And the mountains He set firm
	33		[ 79. 33 ] an enjoyment for you and your herds.
	34		[ 79. 34 ] But when the Great Catastrophe comes,
	35		[ 79. 35 ] the Day when the human will remember what he has worked for,
	36		[ 79. 36 ] and when Hell is advanced for whoever sees,
	37		[ 79. 37 ] then as for whosoever was insolent
	38		[ 79. 38 ] preferring the present life,
	39		[ 79. 39 ] surely, Hell will be their refuge.
	40		[ 79. 40 ] But, whosoever feared the standing before his Lord and prevented the self from desires,
	41		[ 79. 41 ] indeed, their refuge shall be Paradise.
	42		[ 79. 42 ] They will question you about the Hour: 'When shall it be?'
	43		[ 79. 43 ] But how are you to know?
	44		[ 79. 44 ] Its final end is for your Lord.
	45		[ 79. 45 ] You are but a warner for those who fear it.
	46		[ 79. 46 ] On the Day when they behold it, it will be as if they had lingered but an evening, or, a morning.
