Chapter 82, 19 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
When the Sky is cleft asunder;
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
When the planets are dispersed,
When the Stars are scattered;
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ
When the seas are poured forth,
When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;
وإذا البحار فجرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
And the sepulchres are overturned,
And when the Graves are turned upside down; -
وإذا القبور بعثرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.
(Then) shall each soul know what it hath sent forward and (what it hath) kept back.
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,
O man! What has seduced thee from thy Lord Most Beneficent? -
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?
Him Who created thee. Fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias;
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.
In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ

Nay! But ye do reject Right and Judgment!
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ
Lo! there are above you guardians,
But verily over you (are appointed angels) to protect you, -
وإن عليكم لحافظين
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ
Generous and recording,
Kind and honourable, - Writing down (your deeds):
كراما كاتبين
كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ

They know (and understand) all that ye do.
يعلمون ما تفعلون
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ

إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ

And the Wicked - they will be in the Fire,
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ

Which they will enter on the Day of Judgment,
يصلونها يوم الدين
يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ

And they will not be able to keep away therefrom.
وما هم عنها بغائبين
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ

يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ
