Chapter 82, 19 verses
Itha alssamao infatarat
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انفَطَرَتْ
When the sky breaks apart
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
Waitha alkawakibu intatharat
وَإِذَا الْكَوَاكِبُ انتَثَرَتْ
And when the stars fall, scattering,
And when the stars become dispersed,
Waitha albiharu fujjirat
وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
And when the seas are erupted
And when the seas are made to flow forth,
Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat
وَإِذَا الْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,
And when the graves are laid open,
AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.
Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi
يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ الْكَرِيمِ
O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,
O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka
الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّاكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?
Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka
فِي أَيِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَاءَ رَكَّبَكَ
In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.
Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِالدِّينِ
No! But you deny the Recompense.
Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,
Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَافِظِينَ
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,
And most surely there are keepers over you
Kiraman katibeena
كِرَامًا كَاتِبِينَ
Noble and recording;
Honorable recorders,
YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ
They know whatever you do.
They know what you do.
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,
Most surely the righteous are in bliss,
Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin
وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni
يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
They shall enter it on the day of judgment.
Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَائِبِينَ
And never therefrom will they be absent.
And they shall by no means be absent from it.
Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
ثُمَّ مَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi
يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْئًا ۖ وَالْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ
It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah.
The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.
