M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

35. Surely We have made them to grow into a (new) growth,

36. Then We have them virgins,

37. Loving, equals in age,

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

39. A numerous company from among the first,

40. And a numerous company from among the last.

41. And those of the left hand, how wretched are those of the left hand!

42. In hot wind and boiling water,

43. And the shade of black smoke,

44. Neither cool nor honourable.

45. Surely they were before that made to live in ease and plenty.

46. And they persisted in the great violation.

47. And they used to say: What! when we die and have become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised?

48. Or our fathers of yore?

49. Say: The first and the last,

50. Shall most surely be gathered together for the appointed hour of a known day.

51. Thenshallyou,Oyouwho err and call it a lie!

52. Most surely eat of a tree of Zaqqoom,
