When the sky has split [open]
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder,
যখন ফেটে (চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হয়ে) যাবে আকাশ,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder
Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky has split [open]
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder,
যখন ফেটে (চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হয়ে) যাবে আকাশ,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.
এবং সে তার প্রভুর ফরমান পালন করবে, আর তা করাটাই তার জন্যে হক (বাস্তব)।
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
And when the earth has been extended
And when the earth is stretched forth,
এবং যখন পৃথিবীকে করে দেয়া হবে প্রসারিত।
And when the earth is spread out
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
And has cast out all that was in it and became empty.
আর তার ভেতরে যা কিছু ছিলো, সব বাইরে নিক্ষেপ করে সে খালি হয়ে যাবে।
And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.
এভাবে সে তার রবের হুকুম পালন করবে, আর তা করাটাই তার জন্যে হক (বাস্তব)।
And attentive to her Lord in fear!
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.
O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, and you will meet (the results of your deeds which you did).
হে মানুষ! তুমি তোমার (ভালো - মন্দ) কৃতকর্মের বোঝা নিয়ে ফিরে চলছো তোমরা মালিকের দিকে। এ এক অবধারিত প্রত্যাবর্তন। সামনে এগিয়েই তাঁর সাথে মুলাকাত (সাক্ষাত) করবে।
Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand,
সেখানে যার কিতাব (কৃতকর্মের রেকর্ড বা আমলনামা) দেয়া হবে তার ডান হাতে,
Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
He will be judged with an easy account
He surely will receive an easy reckoning,
তার কাছ থেকে নেয়া হবে একটা সহজ হিসাব,
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
And return to his people in happiness.
And will return to his family in joy!
এবং সে তার পরিবার - পরিজনের কাছে ফিরে যাবে হাসি খুশি, আনন্দ উৎফুল্ল চিত্তে।
And will return unto his folk in joy.
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
But whosoever is given his Record behind his back,
তবে যার কিতাব (কৃতকর্মের রেকর্ড বা আমলনামা) দেয়া হবে তার পেছন দিক থেকে,
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
He will cry out for destruction
He will invoke (for his) destruction,
সে ডাকবে মৃত্যুকে,
He surely will invoke destruction
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
And he shall enter a blazing Fire, and be made to taste its burning.
এবং সে প্রবেশ করবে সায়ীরে (জলন্ত আগুনে)।
And be thrown to scorching fire.
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
Verily, he was among his people in joy!
সে তো (দুনিয়ার জীবনে) তার পরিবার - পরিজনদের মধ্যে থাকতো আনন্দে মেতে।
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)!
নিশ্চয়ই সে মনে করতো, তার কখনো ফিরে আসতে হবেনা (আমার কাছে)।
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
Yes! Verily, his Lord has been ever beholding him!
হ্যাঁ, অবশ্যি (তাকে ফিরে আসতেই হবে), কখনো তাকে দৃষ্টির আড়াল করেননি তার প্রভু।
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
So I swear by the twilight glow
So I swear by the afterglow of sunset;
আমি শপথ করছি অস্ত লালিমার,
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
And [by] the night and what it envelops
And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness,
শপথ করছি রাতের, আর সে তার অন্ধকারে যা কিছুর সমাবেশ ঘটায় (সেগুলোর)।
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
And [by] the moon when it becomes full
And by the moon when it is at the full.
শপথ করছি চাঁদের, যখন সে উপনীত হয় পূর্ণিমায়।
And by the moon when she is at the full,
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter).
নিশ্চয়ই তোমরা আরোহণ করতে থাকবে এক তবকা (স্তর) থেকে আরেক তবকায়।
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
What is the matter with them, that they believe not?
সুতরাং তাদের হলো কি যে, তারা ঈমান আনে না?
What aileth them, then, that they believe not
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they fall not prostrate.
এবং যখন তাদের কাছে কুরআন পেশ করা হয়, তখন সাজদা করেনা (অবনত হয়না)? (সাজদা)
And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?
But those who have disbelieved deny,
Nay, those who disbelieve belie (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and whatever he brought, i.e. this Qur'an and Islamic Monotheism, etc.).
বরং যারা কুফরির পথ অবলম্বন করে, তারা (এই কুরআনকে) অস্বীকার করে।
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
And Allah knows best what they gather (of good and bad deeds),
অথচ আল্লাহই অধিক জানেন (তারা তাদের আমলনামায়) কী জমা করছে?
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
So announce to them a painful torment.
সুতরাং তাদেরকে সংবাদ দাও যন্ত্রনাদায়ক আযাবের।
So give them tidings of a painful doom,
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
Save those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them is a reward that will never come to an end (i.e. Paradise).
তবে যারা ঈমান আনে এবং আমলে সালেহ্ করে, তাদের জন্য রয়েছে অফুরন্ত পুরস্কার।
Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
