الـزلزلة

1 Itha zulzilati alardu zilzalaha

1 When the earth is shaken to her (utmost) convulsion,

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When Earth is shaken with her (final) earthquake

2 Waakhrajati alardu athqalaha

2 And the earth throws up her burdens (from within),

2 And Earth yieldeth up her burdens,

3 Waqala alinsanu ma laha

3 And man cries (distressed): 'What is the matter with her?' -

3 And man saith: What aileth her ?

4 Yawmaithin tuhaddithu akhbaraha

4 On that Day will she declare her tidings:

4 That day she will relate her chronicles,

5 Bianna rabbaka awha laha

5 For that thy Lord will have given her inspiration.

5 Because thy Lord inspireth her.

6 Yawmaithin yasduru alnnasu ashtatan liyuraw aAAmalahum

6 On that Day will men proceed in companies sorted out, to be shown the deeds that they (had done).

6 That day mankind will issue forth in scattered groups to be shown their deeds.

7 Faman yaAAmal mithqala tharratin khayran yarahu

7 Then shall anyone who has done an atom's weight of good, see it!

7 And whoso doeth good an atom's weight will see it then,

8 Waman yaAAmal mithqala tharratin sharran yarahu

8 And anyone who has done an atom's weight of evil, shall see it.

8 And whoso doeth ill an atom's weight will see it then.
