An-Naba orThe News[1] (Arabic:النبأ,an-nabaʼ,[2] also known as "The Tidings", "The Announcement") is theseventy-eighth chapter (surah) of theQuran, with fortyayat or verses.
The first twenty verses discuss the wonders of the worldly creation (the earth, plants, the peace of night, the mountains and rain); the final twenty verses are about the eternal wonders and horrors of the next world, with the raging sinner (the Arabictriliteral root TGY "taagheena" is used) being punished starkly opposed with the rewarding of dutiful believers in paradise.[3] The Arabic triliteral root WQY "muttaqeena" is employed as a poeticparataxis to TGY).[citation needed]
