Chapter 84, 25 verses
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
When the heaven bursts asunder,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انشقت
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And obeys its Lord and it must.
وأذنت لربها وحقت
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
Waitha alardu muddat
And when the earth is stretched,
وإذا الأرض مدت
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,
وألقت ما فيها وتخلت
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And obeys its Lord and it must.
وأذنت لربها وحقت
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
Ya ayyuha alinsanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi
O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.
يا أيها الإنسان إنك كادح إلى ربك كدحا فملاقيه
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
فأما من أوتي كتابه بيمينه
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ
Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
فسوف يحاسب حسابا يسيرا
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
وينقلب إلى أهله مسرورا
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
وأما من أوتي كتابه وراء ظهره
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
He shall call for perdition,
فسوف يدعو ثبورا
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
Wayasla saAAeeran
And enter into burning fire.
ويصلى سعيرا
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.
إنه كان في أهله مسرورا
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
Surely he thought that he would never return.
إنه ظن أن لن يحور
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.
بلى إن ربه كان به بصيرا
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi
But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,
فلا أقسم بالشفق
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
Waallayli wama wasaqa
And the night and that which it drives on,
والليل وما وسق
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa
And the moon when it grows full,
والقمر إذا اتسق
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin
That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.
لتركبن طبقا عن طبق
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
Fama lahum la yuminoona
But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,
فما لهم لا يؤمنون
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?
وإذا قرئ عليهم القرآن لا يسجدون ۩
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.
بل الذين كفروا يكذبون
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
And Allah knows best what they hide,
والله أعلم بما يوعون
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
So announce to them a painful punishment~
فبشرهم بعذاب أليم
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.
إلا الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات لهم أجر غير ممنون
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ
