Chapter 82, 19 verses
Itha alssamao infatarat
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
Waitha alkawakibu intatharat
And when the stars become dispersed,
When the planets are dispersed,
وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ
Waitha albiharu fujjirat
And when the seas are made to flow forth,
When the seas are poured forth,
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat
And when the graves are laid open,
And the sepulchres are overturned,
وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat
Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi
O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka
Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka
Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.
فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ

Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ

And most surely there are keepers over you
Lo! there are above you guardians,
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ
Kiraman katibeena
Honorable recorders,
Generous and recording,
كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ
YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona
They know what you do.
Who know (all) that ye do.
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
Most surely the righteous are in bliss,
Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin
And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell;
وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ
Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ
Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena
And they shall by no means be absent from it.
And will not be absent thence.
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ
Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
