Surah 56 Al-Waqi'ah, Ayat 83-94

فَلَوۡلَاۤ اِذَا بَلَغَتِ الۡحُـلۡقُوۡمَۙ‏ ﴿56:83﴾ وَاَنۡتُمۡ حِيۡنَـئِذٍ تَـنۡظُرُوۡنَۙ‏ ﴿56:84﴾ وَنَحۡنُ اَقۡرَبُ اِلَيۡهِ مِنۡكُمۡ وَلٰـكِنۡ لَّا تُبۡصِرُوۡنَ‏ ﴿56:85﴾ فَلَوۡلَاۤ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ غَيۡرَ مَدِيۡنِيۡنَۙ‏ ﴿56:86﴾ تَرۡجِعُوۡنَهَاۤ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ صٰدِقِيۡنَ‏ ﴿56:87﴾ فَاَمَّاۤ اِنۡ كَانَ مِنَ الۡمُقَرَّبِيۡنَۙ‏ ﴿56:88﴾ فَرَوۡحٌ وَّ رَيۡحَانٌ ۙ وَّجَنَّتُ نَعِيۡمٍ‏ ﴿56:89﴾ وَاَمَّاۤ اِنۡ كَانَ مِنۡ اَصۡحٰبِ الۡيَمِيۡنِۙ‏ ﴿56:90﴾ فَسَلٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنۡ اَصۡحٰبِ الۡيَمِيۡنِؕ‏ ﴿56:91﴾ وَاَمَّاۤ اِنۡ كَانَ مِنَ الۡمُكَذِّبِيۡنَ الضَّآلِّيۡنَۙ‏ ﴿56:92﴾ فَنُزُلٌ مِّنۡ حَمِيۡمٍۙ‏ ﴿56:93﴾ وَّتَصۡلِيَةُ جَحِيۡمٍ‏ ﴿56:94﴾

(56:83) Why, then, when the soul leaps up to the throat, (56:84) the while you are helplessly watching that he is on the verge of death, (56:85) – at that moment when We are closer to him than you, although you do not see (Us) (56:86) if you are not subject to anyone's authority, (56:87) why are you then not able to bring them back to life if you are truthful? (56:88) So if he is one of those who are near-stationed (to Allah), (56:89) then happiness and delight and Gardens of Bliss are his. (56:90) And if he is one of the People on the Right, (56:91) he will be welcomed by the words: “Peace to you” from the People on the Right. (56:92) And if he is one of those who give the lie (to this Message) and go astray, (56:93) then he will be served boiling water, (56:94) and will be scorched by the Fire.
