আল ইনফিতার

1 When the sky breaks apart

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

2 And when the stars fall, scattering,

2 And when the stars have fallen and scattered.

3 And when the seas are erupted

3 And when the seas are burst forth.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

8 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

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

9 No! But you deny the Recompense.

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

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

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

11 Noble and recording;

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

12 They know whatever you do.

12 They know all that you do.

13 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

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

14 And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

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

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

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

16 And never therefrom will they be absent.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
