Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky has split [open]
যখন আকাশ খন্ডবিখন্ড হবে,
When the heaven bursts asunder,
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]
আর তার প্রভুর প্রতি উৎকর্ণ হবে এবং কর্তব্যরত হবে - -
And obeys its Lord and it must.
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
And when the earth has been extended
আর যখন পৃথিবীকে সমতল করা হবে,
And when the earth is stretched,
And when the earth is spread out
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
আর তার ভেতরে যা - কিছু রয়েছে তা নিক্ষেপ করবে এবং শূন্যগর্ভ হবে,
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,
And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
ফলে তার প্রভুর প্রতি উৎকর্ণ হবে এবং কর্তব্যরত হবে।
And obeys its Lord and it must.
And attentive to her Lord in fear!
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.
ওহে মানব! নিশ্চয় তোমার প্রভুর তরফে তোমাকে প্রচেষ্টা চালাতে হবে বিশেষ উদ্যমে, তাহলে তুমি তাঁর সাক্ষাৎ পাবে।
O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.
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,
সুতরাং তার ক্ষেত্রে যাকে তার নিবন্ধগ্রন্থ তার ডান হাতে দেওয়া হবে,
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
He will be judged with an easy account
তাকে তো তবে হিসেব চুকিয়ে দেওয়া হবে সহজ হিসেবনিকেশে,
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
And return to his people in happiness.
আর সে তার স্বজনদের কাছে ফিরে যাবে খুশি হয়ে।
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
And will return unto his folk in joy.
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
আর তার ক্ষেত্রে যাকে তার নিবন্ধগ্রন্থ তার পিঠের পশ্চাৎ দিকে দেওয়া হবে,
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
He will cry out for destruction
সে তখনই ধ্বংসের জন্য আর্তনাদ করবে,
He shall call for perdition,
He surely will invoke destruction
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
আর জ্বলন্ত আগুনে প্রবেশ করবে।
And enter into burning fire.
And be thrown to scorching fire.
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
নিঃসন্দেহ সে তার স্বজনদের মধ্যে ফুর্তিতে ছিল।
Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
নিঃসন্দেহ সে ভেবেছিল যে সে কখনো ফিরে আসবে না।
Surely he thought that he would never return.
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
না, নিঃসন্দেহ তার প্রভু বরাবর তার প্রতি দৃষ্টিদাতা।
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
So I swear by the twilight glow
কিন্ত না, আমি সাক্ষী করছি সূর্যাস্তের রক্তিমাভা,
But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
And [by] the night and what it envelops
আর রাত্রিকে ও যা - কিছু তা তাড়িয়ে নেয়,
And the night and that which it drives on,
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
And [by] the moon when it becomes full
আর চন্দ্রকে যখন সে পূর্ণাঙ্গতা পায়,
And the moon when it grows full,
And by the moon when she is at the full,
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
যেন তোমরা এক স্তর থেকে অন্য স্তরে আরোহণ করতে পারো।
That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
সুতরাং তাদের কী হয়েছে যে তারা ঈমান আনছে না,
But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,
What aileth them, then, that they believe not
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
আর যখন তাদের নিকট কুরআন পাঠ করা হয় তখন তারা সিজদা করে না?
And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?
And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?
But those who have disbelieved deny,
পরন্তু যারা অবিশ্বাস করে তারা মিথ্যারোপ করে,
Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
অথচ ভালো জানেন যা তারা লুকোচ্ছে।
And Allah knows best what they hide,
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
অতএব তাদের সুসংবাদ দাও মর্মন্তুদ শাস্তির,
So announce to them a painful punishment~
So give them tidings of a painful doom,
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
তারা ব্যতীত যারা ঈমান এনেছে ও সৎকাজ করছে, - - তাদের জন্য রয়েছে এক নিরবচ্ছিন্ন প্রতিদান।
Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.
Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
