Read Surah Qaaf

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

رِّزْقًا لِّلْعِبَادِ ۙ وَ اَحْیَیْنَا بِهٖ بَلْدَةً مَّیْتًا ؕ كَذٰلِكَ الْخُرُوْجُ۝۱۱

As a provision for men, and enlivened a region that was dead. Even thus will be the life after death.

كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوْحٍ وَّ اَصْحٰبُ الرَّسِّ وَ ثَمُوْدُۙ۝۱۲

The people of Noah, Ar-Rass and Thamud denied before you,

وَ عَادٌ وَّ فِرْعَوْنُ وَ اِخْوَانُ لُوْطٍۙ۝۱۳

As did the people of ´Ad and Pharaoh and the brethren of Lot,

وَّ اَصْحٰبُ الْاَیْكَةِ وَ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ ؕ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِیْدِ۝۱۴

And the dwellers of the Wood and people of Tubba´. Each of them denied the apostles. So My threat became a reality.

اَفَعَیِیْنَا بِالْخَلْقِ الْاَوَّلِ ؕ بَلْ هُمْ فِیْ لَبْسٍ مِّنْ خَلْقٍ جَدِیْدٍ۠۝۱۵

Were We exhausted by the act of the first creation? And yet they are confused about a new creation.

وَ لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ وَ نَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهٖ نَفْسُهٗ ۖۚ وَ نَحْنُ اَقْرَبُ اِلَیْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِیْدِ۝۱۶

He created man and surely know what misdoubts arise in their hearts; for We are closer to him than his jugular vein.

اِذْ یَتَلَقَّی الْمُتَلَقِّیٰنِ عَنِ الْیَمِیْنِ وَ عَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِیْدٌ۝۱۷

When the two (angels) who keep the account, one sitting on the right, one on the left, take it down,

مَا یَلْفِظُ مِنْ قَوْلٍ اِلَّا لَدَیْهِ رَقِیْبٌ عَتِیْدٌ۝۱۸

There is not a word he utters but an observer is ready (to make note of it).

وَ جَآءَتْ سَكْرَةُ الْمَوْتِ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ ذٰلِكَ مَا كُنْتَ مِنْهُ تَحِیْدُ۝۱۹

The palsy of death will surely come. This is what you wished to avert.

وَ نُفِخَ فِی الصُّوْرِ ؕ ذٰلِكَ یَوْمُ الْوَعِیْدِ۝۲۰

And the trumpet blast will sound: It would be the Day of Doom.
