Sorah An-Naba' ( The Great News ) - Verses Number 40
عَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ ( 1 ) 
About what are they asking one another?
عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ ( 2 )
About the great news -
الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ ( 3 )
That over which they are in disagreement.
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 4 )
No! They are going to know.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 5 )
Then, no! They are going to know.
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْأَرْضَ مِهَادًا ( 6 )
Have We not made the earth a resting place?
وَالْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا ( 7 )
And the mountains as stakes?
وَخَلَقْنَاكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا ( 8 )
And We created you in pairs
وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا ( 9 )
And made your sleep [a means for] rest
وَجَعَلْنَا اللَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا ( 10 )
And made the night as clothing
وَجَعَلْنَا النَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا ( 11 )
And made the day for livelihood
وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا ( 12 )
And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]
وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا ( 13 )
And made [therein] a burning lamp
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ الْمُعْصِرَاتِ مَاءً ثَجَّاجًا ( 14 )
And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water
لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا ( 15 )
That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation
وَجَنَّاتٍ أَلْفَافًا ( 16 )
And gardens of entwined growth.
إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَاتًا ( 17 )
Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time -
يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا ( 18 )
The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes
وَفُتِحَتِ السَّمَاءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَابًا ( 19 )
And the heaven is opened and will become gateways
وَسُيِّرَتِ الْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا ( 20 )
And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage.
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا ( 21 )
Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait
لِّلطَّاغِينَ مَآبًا ( 22 )
For the transgressors, a place of return,
لَّابِثِينَ فِيهَا أَحْقَابًا ( 23 )
In which they will remain for ages [unending].
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا ( 24 )
They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink
إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا ( 25 )
Except scalding water and [foul] purulence -
جَزَاءً وِفَاقًا ( 26 )
An appropriate recompense.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا ( 27 )
Indeed, they were not expecting an account
وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كِذَّابًا ( 28 )
And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial.
وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ كِتَابًا ( 29 )
But all things We have enumerated in writing.
فَذُوقُوا فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ( 30 )
"So taste [the penalty], and never will We increase you except in torment."
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا ( 31 )
Indeed, for the righteous is attainment -
حَدَائِقَ وَأَعْنَابًا ( 32 )
Gardens and grapevines
وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا ( 33 )
And full-breasted [companions] of equal age
وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا ( 34 )
And a full cup.
لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّابًا ( 35 )
No ill speech will they hear therein or any falsehood -
جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا ( 36 )
[As] reward from your Lord, [a generous] gift [made due by] account,
رَّبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الرَّحْمَٰنِ ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا ( 37 )
[From] the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Most Merciful. They possess not from Him [authority for] speech.
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا ( 38 )
The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows, they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is correct.
ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الْحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ مَآبًا ( 39 )
That is the True Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord a [way of] return.
إِنَّا أَنذَرْنَاكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ الْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ الْكَافِرُ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَابًا ( 40 )
Indeed, We have warned you of a near punishment on the Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"

- Ruling of Peace Treaties with the JewsIt is the victory of the Jews, notwithstanding that they are a small group, over the Muslim ’ummah in four successive wars. The Arab Muslims whom these defeats have affected concur about the indispensability of concluding peace and compromise with the Jews, saying that there is no alternative before them and offering the excuse that the Jews are helped by the Western nations and America while the Muslims have no power and authority in their favour. And after having extended their hands for compromise with the Jews some of the Arabs have in fact concluded treaties with them calling these Peace Treaties. Since these treaties contain conditions that are invalid, more harmful and graver than defeats in the wars, and since people are asking about what should the Muslims' attitude be towards the Jews and towards the Peace Treaties that have been concluded, and because Allah Subhânahu wa Ta‘âlâ has taken a ovenant of those who are given knowledge to elucidate and not to conceal anything, I have liked to write briefly about the attitude which, according to sharî‘ah, the members of the Islamic ’ummah should adopt towards these treaties they call Peace Treaties.
