(56:1) When the Event will come to pass (56:2) – and then there will be no one to deny its occurrence – (56:3) (a calamitous Event) that shall turn things upside down: (56:4) when the earth will suddenly shake with a terrible shaking, (56:5) and the mountains will crumble (56:6) and will scatter abroad into fine dust. (56:7) You shall then become three groups. (56:8) The People on the Right: and how fortunate will be the People on the Right! (56:9) And the People on the Left: and how miserable will be the People on the Left! (56:10) As for the Foremost, they will be the foremost! (56:11) They shall be near-stationed (to their Lord), (56:12) in the Gardens of Bliss. (56:13) A throng of the ancients, (56:14) and a few from later times. (56:15) They (will be seated) on gold-encrusted couches, (56:16) reclining on them, arrayed face to face; (56:17) immortal youths shall go about them (56:18) with goblets and ewers and a cup filled with a drink drawn from a running spring, (56:19) a drink by which their minds will not be clouded nor will it cause drunkenness; (56:20) they will also go about them with the fruits of which they may choose, (56:21) and with the flesh of any fowl that they may desire to eat; (56:22) and there shall be wide-eyed maidens, (56:23) beautiful as pearls hidden in their shells.

(56:28) They shall be in the midst of thornless lote trees, (56:29) and flower-clad acacias, (56:30) and extended shade, (56:31) and gushing water, (56:32) and abundant fruit, (56:33) never-ending and unforbidden. (56:34) They shall be on upraised couches, (56:35) and their spouses We shall have brought them into being afresh, (56:36) and shall have made them virgins, (56:37) intensely loving and of matching age. (56:38) All this will be for the People on the Right; ..............
