shivering one will shiver.
-

-
How many hearts will be throbbing that Day?
-
They will not be able to lift up their eyes.
-
The infidels say. "shall we really be restored to our former
state"?

-
And preferred the life of this world,

his soul from evil desires;

-
But what you are to do with its mentioning?
-
Towards your Lord is its ultimate end.
-
You are only a warner to him who fears it.

tarried in the world but an evening or the rising of the sun.
