Chapter 99, 8 verses
When the earth is shaken to her (utmost) convulsion,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا زلزلت الأرض زلزالها
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When Earth is shaken with her (final) earthquake
And the earth throws up her burdens (from within),
وأخرجت الأرض أثقالها
And Earth yieldeth up her burdens,
And man cries (distressed): 'What is the matter with her?' -
وقال الإنسان ما لها
And man saith: What aileth her ?
On that Day will she declare her tidings:
يومئذ تحدث أخبارها
That day she will relate her chronicles,
For that thy Lord will have given her inspiration.
بأن ربك أوحى لها
Because thy Lord inspireth her.
On that Day will men proceed in companies sorted out, to be shown the deeds that they (had done).
يومئذ يصدر الناس أشتاتا ليروا أعمالهم
That day mankind will issue forth in scattered groups to be shown their deeds.
Then shall anyone who has done an atom's weight of good, see it!
فمن يعمل مثقال ذرة خيرا يره
And whoso doeth good an atom's weight will see it then,
And anyone who has done an atom's weight of evil, shall see it.
ومن يعمل مثقال ذرة شرا يره
And whoso doeth ill an atom's weight will see it then.
