الانفطار

1 When the sky breaks apart

1 Itha alssamao infatarat

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

2 And when the stars fall, scattering,

2 Waitha alkawakibu intatharat

2 When the planets are dispersed,

3 And when the seas are erupted

3 Waitha albiharu fujjirat

3 When the seas are poured forth,

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

4 Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat

4 And the sepulchres are overturned,

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

5 AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat

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

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

6 Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi

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

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

7 Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka

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

8 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

8 Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka

8 Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.

9 No! But you deny the Recompense.

9 Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni

9 Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.

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

10 Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena

10 Lo! there are above you guardians,

11 Noble and recording;

11 Kiraman katibeena

11 Generous and recording,

12 They know whatever you do.

12 YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona

12 Who know (all) that ye do.

13 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

13 Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin

13 Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.

14 And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

14 Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin

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

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

15 Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni

15 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,

16 And never therefrom will they be absent.

16 Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena

16 And will not be absent thence.

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

17 Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

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

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

18 Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni

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

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.

19 Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi

19 A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
