Ayah: 77

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَهُدٗى وَرَحۡمَةٞ لِّلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

77. It is certainly a guide and a mercy for the believers.

Ayah: 78

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَقۡضِي بَيۡنَهُم بِحُكۡمِهِۦۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ

78. Your Lord 'Allāh' will certainly judge between them by His just Judgement. He is the All-Mighty, the All-knowing.

Ayah: 79

فَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنَّكَ عَلَى ٱلۡحَقِّ ٱلۡمُبِينِ

79. So put your trust in Allāh 'alone', for you are surely upon the clear Truth.

Ayah: 80

إِنَّكَ لَا تُسۡمِعُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَلَا تُسۡمِعُ ٱلصُّمَّ ٱلدُّعَآءَ إِذَا وَلَّوۡاْ مُدۡبِرِينَ

80. You cannot make the dead hear 'the Truth', nor will you make the deaf to hear the call when they turn their backs retreating.

Ayah: 81

وَمَآ أَنتَ بِهَٰدِي ٱلۡعُمۡيِ عَن ضَلَٰلَتِهِمۡۖ إِن تُسۡمِعُ إِلَّا مَن يُؤۡمِنُ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا فَهُم مُّسۡلِمُونَ

81. Nor can you guide the blind out of their error; you cannot make 'anyone' to hear 'the Truth', except those who believe in Our Verses, and are Muslims12.

12. We are all called to be in submission to Allāh 'God' for when we submit to Allāh only will the devil flee from us as we are then committed to Allāh and will be able to withstand the temptations of the devil.

Ayah: 82

۞ وَإِذَا وَقَعَ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ أَخۡرَجۡنَا لَهُمۡ دَآبَّةٗ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمۡ أَنَّ ٱلنَّاسَ كَانُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا لَا يُوقِنُونَ

82. When the Word 'Decree' comes to pass against them13, We shall bring forth for them a beast14 from the earth speaking to them 'saying' that the people had no sure faith in Our verses.

13. At the approach of the Hour of doom.
14. The beast is a great creature which Allāh will cause to emerge when the people become corrupt. It will speak to mankind and exhort them, having the ability to reason and speak. It will make marks on the people’s noses which will distinguish the believers from the disbelievers.
The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) said: The last hour will not come or happen until there appear ten signs before it: The rising of the sun in its place of setting, the coming forth of the beast, the coming forth of Gog and Magog, the Dajjal (antichrist), (the descent of) Jesus son of Mary, the smoke, and three landslides of the earth: one in the west, one in the east, and one in the Arabian Peninsula. The last of that will be the emergence of a fire from Yemen, from the lowest part of Aden, and drive mankind to their place of assembly."

Ayah: 83

وَيَوۡمَ نَحۡشُرُ مِن كُلِّ أُمَّةٖ فَوۡجٗا مِّمَّن يُكَذِّبُ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا فَهُمۡ يُوزَعُونَ

83. 'Warn of' the Day when We shall gather from every nation a party from among those who denied Our revelations, then they will be driven (to the place of Judgment) in rows.

Ayah: 84

حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُو قَالَ أَكَذَّبۡتُم بِـَٔايَٰتِي وَلَمۡ تُحِيطُواْ بِهَا عِلۡمًا أَمَّاذَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

84. Until when they come (to the place of Judgment, Allāh) will ask 'them': "Did you deny My revelations while you did not comprehend them in knowledge? Or what 'else' was it that you used to do?"

Ayah: 85

وَوَقَعَ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ عَلَيۡهِم بِمَا ظَلَمُواْ فَهُمۡ لَا يَنطِقُونَ

85. The Decree 'of Torment' will be justified against them for their iniquities. Thus, they will not speak.

Ayah: 86

أَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ أَنَّا جَعَلۡنَا ٱلَّيۡلَ لِيَسۡكُنُواْ فِيهِ وَٱلنَّهَارَ مُبۡصِرًاۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّقَوۡمٖ يُؤۡمِنُونَ

86. Do they not see that We made the night to rest in, and the day bright 'to seek one’s living'? In this there are certainly signs for a people who believe.

Ayah: 87

وَيَوۡمَ يُنفَخُ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَفَزِعَ مَن فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَن فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُۚ وَكُلٌّ أَتَوۡهُ دَٰخِرِينَ

87. 'Warn' of the Day when the trumpet will be blown, then those who are in the heavens and earth will be terrified, except whom Allāh wills 'to spare'. And all will come to Him humbled.

Ayah: 88

وَتَرَى ٱلۡجِبَالَ تَحۡسَبُهَا جَامِدَةٗ وَهِيَ تَمُرُّ مَرَّ ٱلسَّحَابِۚ صُنۡعَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَتۡقَنَ كُلَّ شَيۡءٍۚ إِنَّهُۥ خَبِيرُۢ بِمَا تَفۡعَلُونَ

88. You will see the mountains, thinking to be solid, moving along like clouds -'it is' the work of Allāh 15, Who has perfected every thing - He is All-Aware of what you do.

15. Allāh designed his people to be inventors: He has filled them with skill to do every sort of work done by an engraver or by a designer or by an embroiderer, or by a weaver - by any sort of workman or skilled designer. Painting, carpentry, planting trees, landscaping, decoration, architecture drawing, cooking, writing, and other jobs involve artistry too. In fact, any time a person is building, he is inventing, although this work only feels like creativity when it is accomplished in a spirit of joy.
Whatever profession a believer is engaged in, to the best of his or her ability, with integrity, and in a spirit of thankfulness, he or she works for the King of the universe and is doing something good. Allāh is the first and the best of the creators, but since we are made in his image, we also produce. The Qur'an and Sunnah focuses our attention on those who not only produce something beautiful but also redirect attention to the Glory of Allāh and teach others.
