يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ ١٧
There will circulate among them young boys made eternal.

56. Al-Waqi'ah
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ ١٨
With vessels, pitchers and a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring -
لَّا يُصَدَّعُونَ عَنْهَا وَلَا يُنزِفُونَ ١٩
No headache will they have therefrom, nor will they be intoxicated -
وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ مِّمَّا يَتَخَيَّرُونَ ٢٠
And fruit of what they select
وَلَحْمِ طَيْرٍ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ٢١
And the meat of fowl, from whatever they desire.
وَحُورٌ عِينٌ ٢٢
And [for them are] fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes,
كَأَمْثَـٰلِ ٱللُّؤْلُؤِ ٱلْمَكْنُونِ ٢٣
The likenesses of pearls well-protected,
جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ٢٤
As reward for what they used to do.
لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا تَأْثِيمًا ٢٥
They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin -
إِلَّا قِيلًا سَلَـٰمًا سَلَـٰمًا ٢٦
Only a saying [of] peace, peace.
وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ ٢٧
The companions of the right - what are the companions of the right?
فِى سِدْرٍ مَّخْضُودٍ ٢٨
[They will be] among lote trees with thorns removed.
وَطَلْحٍ مَّنضُودٍ ٢٩
And [banana] trees layered [with fruit].
وَظِلٍّ مَّمْدُودٍ ٣٠
And shade extended.
وَمَآءٍ مَّسْكُوبٍ ٣١
And water poured out
وَفَـٰكِهَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ ٣٢
And fruit, abundant [and varied],
لَّا مَقْطُوعَةٍ وَلَا مَمْنُوعَةٍ ٣٣
Neither limited [to season] nor forbidden,
وَفُرُشٍ مَّرْفُوعَةٍ ٣٤
And [upon] beds raised high.
إِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَـٰهُنَّ إِنشَآءً ٣٥
Indeed, We have produced them [i.e., the women of Paradise] in a [new] creation
فَجَعَلْنَـٰهُنَّ أَبْكَارًا ٣٦
And made them virgins,
عُرُبًا أَتْرَابًا ٣٧
Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age,
لِّأَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ ٣٨
For the companions of the right [who are]
ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٣٩
A company of the former peoples
وَثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ ٤٠
And a company of the later peoples.
وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ٤١
And the companions of the left - what are the companions of the left?
فِى سَمُومٍ وَحَمِيمٍ ٤٢
[They will be] in scorching fire and scalding water
وَظِلٍّ مِّن يَحْمُومٍ ٤٣
And a shade of black smoke,
لَّا بَارِدٍ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ٤٤
Neither cool nor beneficial.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ٤٥
Indeed they were, before that, indulging in affluence,
وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٤٦
And they used to persist in the great violation,
وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَـٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ٤٧
And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ٤٨
And our forefathers [as well]?"
قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ وَٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ ٤٩
Say, [O Muḥammad], "Indeed, the former and later peoples
لَمَجْمُوعُونَ إِلَىٰ مِيقَـٰتِ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ ٥٠
Are to be gathered together for the appointment of a known Day."
