بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
When the sky breaks apart
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
Chapter 82, 19 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
When the sky breaks apart
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
And when the stars fall, scattering,
And when the stars become dispersed,
وإذا البحار فجرت
And when the seas are erupted
And when the seas are made to flow forth,
وإذا القبور بعثرت
And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,
And when the graves are laid open,
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.
Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم
O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,
O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?
Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.
Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
No! But you deny the Recompense.
Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,
وإن عليكم لحافظين
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,
And most surely there are keepers over you
كراما كاتبين
Noble and recording;
Honorable recorders,
يعلمون ما تفعلون
They know whatever you do.
They know what you do.
إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,
Most surely the righteous are in bliss,
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
يصلونها يوم الدين
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
They shall enter it on the day of judgment.
وما هم عنها بغائبين
And never therefrom will they be absent.
And they shall by no means be absent from it.
وما أدراك ما يوم الدين
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
ثم ما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
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.
The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.
