English translation of the Quran by Dr Ghali:
Quran-53:57
The Imminent is imminent; <- as in the day of judgement is approachingQuran-53:58
Apart from Allah, none can lift it off. <- no one can stop it other than AllahQuran-53:59
Do you then wonder at this discourse, <- as in , wondering about the quranQuran-53:60
And do you laugh, and do you not weep. <- wasting time lauging instead of crying about the approaching judgementQuran-53:61
(While) you amuse yourselves? <- wasting time entertaining and enjoying life instead of preparing for judgement day.
I'm hoping that I have misunderstood these verses, but it seems that as muslims, we should not be laughing, having fun, enjoying life, and entertaining ourselves?
