আল ইনশিকাক (ফেটে চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হওয়া)

1 When the sky has split [open]

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

2 And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

2 And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.

3 And when the earth has been extended

3 And when the earth is stretched forth,

4 And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]

4 And has cast out all that was in it and became empty.

5 And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -

5 And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.

6 O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

6 O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, and you will meet (the results of your deeds which you did).

7 Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

7 Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand,

8 He will be judged with an easy account

8 He surely will receive an easy reckoning,

9 And return to his people in happiness.

9 And will return to his family in joy!

10 But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

10 But whosoever is given his Record behind his back,

11 He will cry out for destruction

11 He will invoke (for his) destruction,

12 And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

12 And he shall enter a blazing Fire, and be made to taste its burning.

13 Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

13 Verily, he was among his people in joy!

14 Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

14 Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)!

15 But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

15 Yes! Verily, his Lord has been ever beholding him!

16 So I swear by the twilight glow

16 So I swear by the afterglow of sunset;

17 And [by] the night and what it envelops

17 And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness,

18 And [by] the moon when it becomes full

18 And by the moon when it is at the full.

19 [That] you will surely experience state after state.

19 You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter).

20 So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

20 What is the matter with them, that they believe not?

21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they fall not prostrate.

22 But those who have disbelieved deny,

22 Nay, those who disbelieve belie (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and whatever he brought, i.e. this Qur'an and Islamic Monotheism, etc.).

23 And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

23 And Allah knows best what they gather (of good and bad deeds),

24 So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

24 So announce to them a painful torment.

25 Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.

25 Save those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them is a reward that will never come to an end (i.e. Paradise).
