And when the stars have fallen and scattered.
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
Waitha albiharu fujjirat
And when the seas are burst forth.
وإذا البحار فجرت

(Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds).
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi
O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم

Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka
In whatever form He willed, He put you together.
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni
Nay! But you deny Ad-Din (i.e. the Day of Recompense).
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena
But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you,
وإن عليكم لحافظين
Kiraman katibeena
Kiraman (Honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds),
كراما كاتبين
YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona
They know all that you do.
يعلمون ما تفعلون
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
Verily, the Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) will be in Delight (Paradise);
إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin
And verily, the Fujjar (the wicked, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners and evil-doers) will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni
Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,
يصلونها يوم الدين

And they (Al-Fujjar) will not be absent therefrom.
وما هم عنها بغائبين
Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
وما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
ثم ما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi
(It will be) the Day when no person shall have power (to do) anything for another, and the Decision, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.
يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
