Chapter 82, 19 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
When the sky breaks apart
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
When the planets are dispersed,
And when the stars fall, scattering,
وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ
وإذا البحار فجرت
When the seas are poured forth,
And when the seas are erupted
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
وإذا القبور بعثرت
And the sepulchres are overturned,
And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,
وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.
A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,
O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?
Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.
In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.
فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.
No! But you deny the Recompense.
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ
وإن عليكم لحافظين
Lo! there are above you guardians,
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ
كراما كاتبين
Generous and recording,
Noble and recording;
كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ
يعلمون ما تفعلون
Who know (all) that ye do.
They know whatever you do.
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ
إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.
Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell;
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ
يصلونها يوم الدين
They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ
وما هم عنها بغائبين
And will not be absent thence.
And never therefrom will they be absent.
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ
وما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
ثم ما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
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.
يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ
