In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
Wenn der Himmel zerbricht

When the planets are dispersed,
And when the stars become dispersed,
und wenn die Sterne sich zerstreuen

When the seas are poured forth,

And the sepulchres are overturned,
And when the graves are laid open,
und wenn die Gräber durchwühlt werden,
