he Hour (of Judgement) is drawing near, and the moon is cleft
T
in two. Yet when they see a sign (the unbelievers) turn their
backs and say: 'Strongmagic!'
They deny the truth and follow their own fancies. But every matter
will be settled.
There have come to them narratives, deterring and full of wisdom;
but warnings are unavailing.
Let them be. On the day when the Crier summons them to a hard
task, with downcast eyes they shall come out from their graves as if
they were scattered locusts. The unbelievers will cry: 'This is indeed a
hard day!'
Long before them the people of Nuh denied Our signs. They
disbelieved Our servant and called him a madman. He was driven
away. Then he invoked his Lord, (saying): 'I amovercome, Helpme! '
We opened the gates of heaven with pouring rain and caused the
earth to burst with gushing springs, so that the waters met for a
predestined end.We carried him in a vessel built with planks and nails,
drifting on under Our eyes: a recompense for him who had been
disbelieved.
