الانفطار

1 When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,

1 When the sky breaks apart

2 And when the stars become dispersed,

2 And when the stars fall, scattering,

3 And when the seas are made to flow forth,

3 And when the seas are erupted

4 And when the graves are laid open,

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

5 Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.

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

6 O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,

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

7 Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?

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

8 Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.

8 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

9 Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,

9 No! But you deny the Recompense.

10 And most surely there are keepers over you

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

11 Honorable recorders,

11 Noble and recording;

12 They know what you do.

12 They know whatever you do.

13 Most surely the righteous are in bliss,

13 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

14 And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,

14 And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

15 They shall enter it on the day of judgment.

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

16 And they shall by no means be absent from it.

16 And never therefrom will they be absent.

17 And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?

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

18 Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?

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

19 The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.

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.
