When the sky is rent asunder,
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so); -
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
Waitha alardu muddat
And when the earth has been extended
And when the earth is flattened out,
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,

Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, - and it must needs (do so); - (then will come Home the full reality).

O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord - painfully toiling, - but thou shalt meet Him.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

And return to his people in happiness.
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
He will cry out for destruction
Soon will he cry for perdition,
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
Wayasla saAAeeran
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi

So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
Waallayli wama wasaqa
And [by] the night and what it envelops
The Night and its Homing;
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa

And the Moon in her fullness:
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin

Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
Fama lahum la yuminoona
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not? -
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
But those who have disbelieved deny,
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)

Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
