When the sky has split [open]
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky has split [open]
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And when the earth has been extended
Waitha alardu muddat
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
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
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
He will be judged with an easy account
Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran
And return to his people in happiness.
Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
He will cry out for destruction
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
Wayasla saAAeeran
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
So I swear by the twilight glow
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi
And [by] the night and what it envelops
Waallayli wama wasaqa
And [by] the moon when it becomes full
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
Fama lahum la yuminoona
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
But those who have disbelieved deny,
Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
