Sura-50 [Qaf Mecca 34]
The Quranic Text & Ali’s version:
إِنَّا
نَحْنُ نُحْيِي
وَنُمِيتُ
وَإِلَيْنَا
الْمَصِيرُ
﴿٤٣﴾
50:43. Verily it is We Who give Life and Death; and to Us is the Final Goal --
يَوْمَ
تَشَقَّقُ
الْأَرْضُ
عَنْهُمْ سِرَاعًا
ذَلِكَ حَشْرٌ
...
50:44. The Day when the Earth will be rent asunder, from (men) hurrying out: that will be a gathering together --
C4983. Men will hurry out from all corners of the earth to answer the call, and the earth itself will be rent asunder.
In 25:25 the imagery used was the heaven being rent asunder, and angels coming out in ranks: see n. 3082. Cf. also 84:1-4.
... عَلَيْنَا يَسِيرٌ ﴿٤٤﴾
quite easy for Us.
C4984. It may seem to our material imaginations a difficult task to collect together the souls of all sorts of men, who died in all sorts of conditions at different times, but it will be a different kind of world and creation altogether, and to Allah all things are not only possible but easy.
نَحْنُ
أَعْلَمُ بِمَا
يَقُولُونَ
وَمَا أَنتَ
عَلَيْهِم
بِجَبَّارٍ...
50:45. We know best what they say; and thou art not one to overawe them by force.
C4985. People may throw all sorts of doubts about the Judgment and the Hereafter. The Prophet's task is not to force them to accept anything. His task is to deliver the Message of the Quran, and admonish those who are spiritually fit and ready to receive admonition and to prepare themselves for the new and higher life destined for man.
...فَذَكِّرْ بِالْقُرْآنِ مَن يَخَافُ وَعِيدِ ﴿٤٥﴾
So admonish with the Qur'án such as fear My Warning!
Asad’s Version:
50:43 Verily, it is We who grant life and deal death; and with Us will be all journeys' end
(50:44) on the Day when the earth is riven asunder all around them as they hasten forth [towards God's judgment]: that gathering will be easy for Us [to encompass].
50:45 Fully aware are We of what they [who deny resurrection] do say; and thou canst by no means force them [to believe in it]. Yet none the less, remind, through this Qur'an, all such as may fear My warning.
Yuksel’s version
50:43 We are the Ones who give life and bring death, and to Us is the destiny.
50:44 The day when the earth will rapidly crumble away from them; that will be a gathering which is easy for Us.
50:45 We are totally aware of what they say, and you are not to be a tyrant over them. So remind with the Quran those who fear My promise.
