أَلَمْنَخْلُقكُّممِّنمَّآءٍۢمَّهِينٍۢ٢٠

Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?

And We placed it in a firm lodging [i.e., the womb]

For a known extent.

And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Have We not made the earth a container

Of the living and the dead?

And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

[They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny.

Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns.

[But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame."

Indeed, it throws sparks [as huge] as a fortress,

As if they were yellowish [black] camels.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

This is a Day they will not speak,

Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples.

So if you have a plan, then plan against Me.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs

And fruits from whatever they desire,

[Being told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

[O disbelievers], eat and enjoy yourselves a little; indeed, you are criminals.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

And when it is said to them, "Bow [in prayer]," they do not bow.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Then in what statement after it [i.e., the Qur’ān] will they believe?
