مَّتَٰعٗا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَٰمِكُمۡ
[As] enjoyment [i.e., provision] for you and your grazing livestock.
فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ
But when there comes the Deafening Blast[1]
1- The piercing blast of the Horn which signals resurrection. A§-êŒkhkhah is also a name for the Day of Resurrection.
يَوۡمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مِنۡ أَخِيهِ
On the Day a man will flee from his brother
وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ
And his mother and his father
وَصَٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ
And his wife and his children,
لِكُلِّ ٱمۡرِيٕٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ شَأۡنٞ يُغۡنِيهِ
For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.[1]
1- i.e., to occupy him. He will be concerned only with himself, thus forgetting all others.
وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ مُّسۡفِرَةٞ
[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright –
ضَاحِكَةٞ مُّسۡتَبۡشِرَةٞ
Laughing, rejoicing at good news.
وَوُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٍ عَلَيۡهَا غَبَرَةٞ
And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.
تَرۡهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ
Blackness will cover them.
أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡكَفَرَةُ ٱلۡفَجَرَةُ
Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
