আল ইনশিকাক (চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হওয়া)

1 When the heaven bursts asunder,

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

2 And obeys its Lord and it must.

2 And attentive to her Lord in fear,

3 And when the earth is stretched,

3 And when the earth is spread out

4 And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,

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

5 And obeys its Lord and it must.

5 And attentive to her Lord in fear!

6 O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.

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

7 Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,

7 Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

8 He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,

8 He truly will receive an easy reckoning

9 And he shall go back to his people joyful.

9 And will return unto his folk in joy.

10 And as to him who is given his book behind his back,

10 But whoso is given his account behind his back,

11 He shall call for perdition,

11 He surely will invoke destruction

12 And enter into burning fire.

12 And be thrown to scorching fire.

13 Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.

13 He verily lived joyous with his folk,

14 Surely he thought that he would never return.

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

15 Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.

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

16 But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,

16 Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,

17 And the night and that which it drives on,

17 And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

18 And the moon when it grows full,

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

19 That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.

19 That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

20 But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,

20 What aileth them, then, that they believe not

21 And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?

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

22 Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.

22 Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

23 And Allah knows best what they hide,

23 And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

24 So announce to them a painful punishment~

24 So give them tidings of a painful doom,

25 Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.

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