আল ইনশিকাক (চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হওয়া)

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder

1 When the sky is rent asunder,

2 And attentive to her Lord in fear,

2 And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so); -

3 And when the earth is spread out

3 And when the earth is flattened out,

4 And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty

4 And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,

5 And attentive to her Lord in fear!

5 And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, - and it must needs (do so); - (then will come Home the full reality).

6 Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).

6 O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord - painfully toiling, - but thou shalt meet Him.

7 Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

7 Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,

8 He truly will receive an easy reckoning

8 Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,

9 And will return unto his folk in joy.

9 And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!

10 But whoso is given his account behind his back,

10 But he who is given his Record behind his back, -

11 He surely will invoke destruction

11 Soon will he cry for perdition,

12 And be thrown to scorching fire.

12 And he will enter a Blazing Fire.

13 He verily lived joyous with his folk,

13 Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!

14 He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).

14 Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!

15 Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!

15 Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!

16 Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,

16 So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;

17 And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

17 The Night and its Homing;

18 And by the moon when she is at the full,

18 And the Moon in her fullness:

19 That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

19 Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.

20 What aileth them, then, that they believe not

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

21 And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?

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

22 Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

22 But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).

23 And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

23 But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)

24 So give them tidings of a painful doom,

24 So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,

25 Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.

25 Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.
