الانشقاق

1 When the sky has split [open]

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

1 Itha alssamao inshaqqat

2 And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

2 And attentive to her Lord in fear,

2 Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

3 And when the earth has been extended

3 And when the earth is spread out

3 Waitha alardu muddat

4 And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]

4 And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty

4 Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat

5 And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -

5 And attentive to her Lord in fear!

5 Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

6 O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

6 Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).

6 Ya ayyuha alinsanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi

7 Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

7 Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

7 Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi

8 He will be judged with an easy account

8 He truly will receive an easy reckoning

8 Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran

9 And return to his people in happiness.

9 And will return unto his folk in joy.

9 Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran

10 But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

10 But whoso is given his account behind his back,

10 Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi

11 He will cry out for destruction

11 He surely will invoke destruction

11 Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran

12 And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

12 And be thrown to scorching fire.

12 Wayasla saAAeeran

13 Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

13 He verily lived joyous with his folk,

13 Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran

14 Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

14 He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).

14 Innahu thanna an lan yahoora

15 But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

15 Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!

15 Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran

16 So I swear by the twilight glow

16 Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,

16 Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi

17 And [by] the night and what it envelops

17 And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

17 Waallayli wama wasaqa

18 And [by] the moon when it becomes full

18 And by the moon when she is at the full,

18 Waalqamari itha ittasaqa

19 [That] you will surely experience state after state.

19 That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

19 Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin

20 So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

20 What aileth them, then, that they believe not

20 Fama lahum la yuminoona

21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

21 And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?

21 Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona

22 But those who have disbelieved deny,

22 Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

22 Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona

23 And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

23 And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

23 WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona

24 So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

24 So give them tidings of a painful doom,

24 Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin

25 Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.

25 Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.

25 Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
