Verse 69

ﯕﯖﯗﯘﯙﯚﯛ ﯜ

Is it you who bring it down from the clouds, or is it We Who do so?

Verse 70

ﯝﯞﯟﯠﯡﯢ ﯣ

If We willed, We could make it salty. Will you not then give thanks?

So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Greatest.

Verse 75

ﯻﯼﯽﯾﯿ ﰀ

So I do swear by the positions of the stars—

Verse 76

ﰁﰂﰃﰄﰅ ﰆ

and this, if only you knew, is indeed a great oath—

Verse 77

ﭑﭒﭓ ﭔ

that this is truly a noble Quran,

Verse 78

ﭕﭖﭗ ﭘ

in a well-preserved Record,¹

Verse 79

ﭙﭚﭛﭜ ﭝ

touched by none except the purified ˹angels˺.¹

Verse 80

ﭞﭟﭠﭡ ﭢ

˹It is˺ a revelation from the Lord of all worlds.

Verse 81

ﭣﭤﭥﭦ ﭧ

How can you then take this message lightly,

Verse 82

ﭨﭩﭪﭫ ﭬ

and repay ˹Allah for˺ your provisions with denial?¹

Verse 83

ﭭﭮﭯﭰ ﭱ

Why then ˹are you helpless˺ when the soul ˹of a dying person˺ reaches ˹their˺ throat,

Verse 84

ﭲﭳﭴ ﭵ

while you are looking on?

Verse 85

ﭶﭷﭸﭹﭺﭻﭼ ﭽ

And We are nearer to such a person than you, but you cannot see.

Verse 86

ﭾﭿﮀﮁﮂ ﮃ

Now, if you are not subject to Our Will ˹as you claim˺,

Verse 87

ﮄﮅﮆﮇ ﮈ

bring that soul back, if what you say is true.

Verse 88

ﮉﮊﮋﮌﮍ ﮎ

So, if the deceased is one of those brought near ˹to Us˺,

Verse 89

ﮏﮐﮑﮒ ﮓ

then ˹such a person will have˺ serenity, fragrance,¹ and a Garden of Bliss.

Verse 90

ﮔﮕﮖﮗﮘﮙ ﮚ

And if the deceased is one of the people of the right,

Verse 91

ﮛﮜﮝﮞﮟ ﮠ

then ˹they will be told,˺ “Greetings to you from the people of the right.”

Verse 92

ﮡﮢﮣﮤﮥﮦ ﮧ

But if such person is one of the misguided deniers,

Verse 93

ﮨﮩﮪ ﮫ

then their accommodation will be boiling water ˹to drink˺

Verse 94

ﮬﮭ ﮮ

and burning in Hellfire.

Verse 95

ﮯﮰﮱﯓﯔ ﯕ

Indeed, this is the absolute truth.

Verse 96

ﯖﯗﯘﯙ ﯚ

So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Greatest.
