الانفطار

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder.

1 When the sky breaks apart

2 And when the stars have fallen and scattered.

2 And when the stars fall, scattering,

3 And when the seas are burst forth.

3 And when the seas are erupted

4 And when the graves are turned upside down (and bring out their contents)

4 And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,

5 (Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds).

5 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.

6 O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?

6 O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,

7 Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.

7 Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?

8 In whatever form He willed, He put you together.

8 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

9 Nay! But you deny Ad-Din (i.e. the Day of Recompense).

9 No! But you deny the Recompense.

10 But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you,

10 And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,

11 Kiraman (Honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds),

11 Noble and recording;

12 They know all that you do.

12 They know whatever you do.

13 Verily, the Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) will be in Delight (Paradise);

13 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

14 And verily, the Fujjar (the wicked, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners and evil-doers) will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),

14 And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

15 Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,

15 They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,

16 And they (Al-Fujjar) will not be absent therefrom.

16 And never therefrom will they be absent.

17 And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?

17 And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

18 Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?

18 Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

19 (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.

19 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.
