الانفطار

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,

1 Itha alssamao infatarat

1 When the sky breaks apart

2 When the planets are dispersed,

2 Waitha alkawakibu intatharat

2 And when the stars fall, scattering,

3 When the seas are poured forth,

3 Waitha albiharu fujjirat

3 And when the seas are erupted

4 And the sepulchres are overturned,

4 Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat

4 And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,

5 A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.

5 AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat

5 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.

6 O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,

6 Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi

6 O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,

7 Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?

7 Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka

7 Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?

8 Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.

8 Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka

8 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

9 Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.

9 Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni

9 No! But you deny the Recompense.

10 Lo! there are above you guardians,

10 Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena

10 And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,

11 Generous and recording,

11 Kiraman katibeena

11 Noble and recording;

12 Who know (all) that ye do.

12 YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona

12 They know whatever you do.

13 Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.

13 Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin

13 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

14 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell;

14 Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin

14 And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

15 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,

15 Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni

15 They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,

16 And will not be absent thence.

16 Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena

16 And never therefrom will they be absent.

17 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

17 Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

17 And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

18 Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

18 Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

18 Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

19 A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.

19 Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi

19 It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah.
