الانفطار

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder.

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

1 Itha alssamao infatarat

2 And when the stars have fallen and scattered.

2 When the planets are dispersed,

2 Waitha alkawakibu intatharat

3 And when the seas are burst forth.

3 When the seas are poured forth,

3 Waitha albiharu fujjirat

4 And when the graves are turned upside down (and bring out their contents)

4 And the sepulchres are overturned,

4 Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat

5 (Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds).

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

5 AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat

6 O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?

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

6 Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi

7 Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.

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

7 Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka

8 In whatever form He willed, He put you together.

8 Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.

8 Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka

9 Nay! But you deny Ad-Din (i.e. the Day of Recompense).

9 Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.

9 Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni

10 But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you,

10 Lo! there are above you guardians,

10 Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena

11 Kiraman (Honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds),

11 Generous and recording,

11 Kiraman katibeena

12 They know all that you do.

12 Who know (all) that ye do.

12 YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona

13 Verily, the Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) will be in Delight (Paradise);

13 Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.

13 Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin

14 And verily, the Fujjar (the wicked, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners and evil-doers) will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),

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

14 Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin

15 Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,

15 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,

15 Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni

16 And they (Al-Fujjar) will not be absent therefrom.

16 And will not be absent thence.

16 Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena

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

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

17 Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

18 Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?

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

18 Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

19 (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power (to do) anything for another, and the Decision, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.

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
