Chapter 84, 25 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انشقت
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
When the heaven bursts asunder,
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
وأذنت لربها وحقت
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And obeys its Lord and it must.
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
وإذا الأرض مدت
Waitha alardu muddat
And when the earth is stretched,
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
وألقت ما فيها وتخلت
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
وأذنت لربها وحقت
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And obeys its Lord and it must.
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
يا أيها الإنسان إنك كادح إلى ربك كدحا فملاقيه
Ya ayyuha alinsanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi
O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
فأما من أوتي كتابه بيمينه
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ
فسوف يحاسب حسابا يسيرا
Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
وينقلب إلى أهله مسرورا
Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
وأما من أوتي كتابه وراء ظهره
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
فسوف يدعو ثبورا
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
He shall call for perdition,
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
ويصلى سعيرا
Wayasla saAAeeran
And enter into burning fire.
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
إنه كان في أهله مسرورا
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
إنه ظن أن لن يحور
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
Surely he thought that he would never return.
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
بلى إن ربه كان به بصيرا
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
فلا أقسم بالشفق
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi
But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
والليل وما وسق
Waallayli wama wasaqa
And the night and that which it drives on,
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
والقمر إذا اتسق
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa
And the moon when it grows full,
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
لتركبن طبقا عن طبق
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin
That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
فما لهم لا يؤمنون
Fama lahum la yuminoona
But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
وإذا قرئ عليهم القرآن لا يسجدون ۩
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
بل الذين كفروا يكذبون
Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
والله أعلم بما يوعون
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
And Allah knows best what they hide,
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
فبشرهم بعذاب أليم
Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
So announce to them a painful punishment~
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
إلا الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات لهم أجر غير ممنون
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ
