When the sky breaks apart
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
Chapter 82, 19 verses
When the sky breaks apart
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
Itha alssamao infatarat
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
And when the stars fall, scattering,
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
When the planets are dispersed,
Waitha alkawakibu intatharat
وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ
And when the seas are erupted
وإذا البحار فجرت
When the seas are poured forth,
Waitha albiharu fujjirat
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,
وإذا القبور بعثرت
And the sepulchres are overturned,
Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat
وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.
AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat

O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,
Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?
Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.
Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka
فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ
No! But you deny the Recompense.
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.
Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,
وإن عليكم لحافظين
Lo! there are above you guardians,

وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ
Noble and recording;
كراما كاتبين
Generous and recording,
Kiraman katibeena
كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ
They know whatever you do.
يعلمون ما تفعلون
Who know (all) that ye do.
YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ
Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,
إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell;
Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin
وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
يصلونها يوم الدين
They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,
Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni
يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ
And never therefrom will they be absent.
وما هم عنها بغائبين
And will not be absent thence.
Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
وما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!
Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
ثم ما أدراك ما يوم الدين
Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!
Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ
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.
يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi
يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ
