qarAẗ

1

Yet even if [they should listen to] a [divine] discourse by which mountains could be moved, or the earth cleft asunder, or the dead made to speak - [they who are bent on denying the truth would still refuse to believe in it]!* Nay, but God alone has the power to decide what shall be.* Have, then, they who have attained to faith not yet come to know that, had God so willed; He would indeed have guided all mankind aright?* But as for those who are bent on denying the truth-in result of their [evil] deeds, sudden calamities will always befall them or will alight close to their homes;* [and this will continue] until God's promise [of resurrection] is fulfilled: verily, God never fails to fulfil His promise!
THE LIE gave [the tribes of] Thamud and 'Ad to [all tidings of] that sudden calamity!*

3

OH, the sudden calamity!*

4

How awesome the sudden calamity!

And what could make thee conceive what that sudden calamity will be?
