| إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْفَطَرَتْ {١} |
1. When the sky will be cleft asunder, |
| وَإِذَا الْكَوَاكِبُ انْتَثَرَتْ {٢} |
2. And when the planets will become dispersed, |
| وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ {٣} |
3. And when the rivers are widely split up and made to flow forth (into canals), |
| وَإِذَا الْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ {٤} |
4. And when the graves will be laid open, |
| عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ {٥} |
5. Every person shall know (then) what (evil) actions (which he should not have done) he has committed, and what (good actions he should have done) he has omitted. |
| يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنْسَانُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ الْكَرِيمِ {٦} |
6. O (ungrateful) human being! what has enticed you away from your Lord, the Honoured One, |
| الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّاكَ فَعَدَلَكَ {٧} |
7. Who created you, then perfected you (with wisdom), then endowed you with great natural powers and faculties, |
| فِي أَيِّ صُورَةٍ مَا شَاءَ رَكَّبَكَ {٨} |
8. And He fashioned you in whatever form it pleased Him. |
| كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِالدِّينِ {٩} |
9. Surely, (it is) not at all (as you think), the truth is that you treat the Requital as a lie. |
| وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَافِظِينَ {١٠} |
10. Verily, there are (appointed) guardians over you, |
| كِرَامًا كَاتِبِينَ {١١} |
11. Noble (angel) recorders (of your commissions and omissions), |
| يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ {١٢} |
12. Who know (all) that you do. |
| إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ {١٣} |
13. The virtuous shall invariably be in (a state of) bliss. |
| وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ {١٤} |
14. But the wicked shall, of course, be in the flaming Fire. |
| يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ {١٥} |
15. They will enter therein on the Day of Requital, |
| وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَائِبِينَ {١٦} |
16. And they shall not at all (be able to) keep themselves away (by escaping) from it. |
| وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ {١٧} |
17. What should make you know what the Day of Requital is! |
| ثُمَّ مَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ {١٨} |
18. Again (We repeat) how can you know what the Day of Requital is! |
| يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِنَفْسٍ شَيْئًا ۖ وَالْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلَّهِ {١٩} |
19. (It is) the day when no person shall be able to do anything for another! On that day the (absolute) Judgment of every sort shall entirely belong to Allâh. |
