Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky has split [open]
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
And when the earth has been extended
Waitha alardu muddat
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.
Ya ayyuha alinsanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ
He will be judged with an easy account
Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
And return to his people in happiness.
Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
He will cry out for destruction
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
Wayasla saAAeeran
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
So I swear by the twilight glow
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
And [by] the night and what it envelops
Waallayli wama wasaqa
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
And [by] the moon when it becomes full
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
Fama lahum la yuminoona
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
But those who have disbelieved deny,
Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ
