Al-Waqi'ah · Al-Waqi'ah

Both use the rhetorical question 'wa ashab al-yamin ma ashab al-yamin' but 56:8 introduces all three groups together while 56:27 begins the dedicated description of the Companions of the Right.

At-Tur · Al-Waqi'ah

Both describe immortal youths serving in Paradise but 52:24 adds the simile 'ka'annahum lu'lu'un maknun' (like preserved pearls) while 56:17 describes them without this simile.

As-Saffat · Al-Waqi'ah

Both describe the wine of Paradise as harmless but 37:47 uses 'la yunzafun' (they will not be drained/intoxicated) while 56:19 uses 'la yunzifun' — a root vowel shift changing the verb pattern.

Al-Waqi'ah · Al-A'la

87:1 'sabbih isma rabbika al-a'la' and 56:74 'fa sabbih bismi rabbika al-'azim' both command glorifying the Lord's name but differ in the divine attribute: al-a'la (Most High) vs al-'azim (Most Great).

The same closing command 'fa sabbih bismi rabbika al-'azim' appears identically at the end of Al-Waqi'ah and at the end of Al-Haqqah.

Al-Waqi'ah · Al-Waqi'ah

The command 'fa sabbih bismi rabbika al-'azim' closes both the middle and the very end of Al-Waqi'ah in identical wording.
