**1. When the Event (the Day of Resurrection) befalls,**

**2. There is no denying its befalling.**

**3. It will bring low (some) and raise (others).**

**4. When the earth will be shaken with a severe shaking.**

**5. And the mountains will be crushed to powder,**

**6. Becoming scattered dust.**

**7. And you will be three kinds:**

**8. Those on the Right Hand (i.e., the Blessed).**

**9. Those on the Left Hand (i.e., the Wretched).**

**10. And those foremost (in Faith) will be foremost (in Paradise).**

**11. These are they who will be brought near (to Allah).**

**12. In Gardens of Delight.**

**13. A number of people from those of old,**

**14. And a few from those of later times.**

**15. On thrones woven with gold and precious stones,**

**16. Reclining on them, facing each other.**

**17. There will circulate among them [servant] boys especially for them,**

**18. With cups, and jugs, and a glass from the flowing wine.**

**19. No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated.**

**20. And fruit of what they select,**

**21. And the meat of fowl from whatever they desire.**

**22. And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,**

**23. The likenesses of pearls well-protected.**

**24. As reward for what they used to do.**

**25. They will not hear therein any ill speech or commission of sin—**

**26. Only a saying: "Peace, peace."**

**27. The companions of the right—what are the companions of the right?**

**28. [They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed,**

**29. And [banana] trees layered [with fruit],**

**30. And shade extended,**

**31. And water flowing constantly,**

**32. And fruit in abundance,**

**33. Whose season is not limited, nor are they out of reach.**

**34. And upon beds raised high.**

**35. Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation.**

**36. And made them virgins,**

**37. Devoted to their husbands and of equal age.**

**38. For the companions of the right hand.**
