When the Sky is cleft asunder;
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
Chapter 82, 19 verses
When the Sky is cleft asunder;
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ
When the Stars are scattered;
When the planets are dispersed,
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ
When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;
When the seas are poured forth,
وإذا البحار فجرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
And when the Graves are turned upside down; -
And the sepulchres are overturned,
وإذا القبور بعثرت
وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
(Then) shall each soul know what it hath sent forward and (what it hath) kept back.
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.
علمت نفس ما قدمت وأخرت
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
O man! What has seduced thee from thy Lord Most Beneficent? -
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,
يا أيها الإنسان ما غرك بربك الكريم
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
Him Who created thee. Fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias;
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك
فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ
Nay! But ye do reject Right and Judgment!
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.
كلا بل تكذبون بالدين
كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ
But verily over you (are appointed angels) to protect you, -
Lo! there are above you guardians,
وإن عليكم لحافظين
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ
Kind and honourable, - Writing down (your deeds):
Generous and recording,
كراما كاتبين
كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ
They know (and understand) all that ye do.
Who know (all) that ye do.
يعلمون ما تفعلون
يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ

Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.
إن الأبرار لفي نعيم
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ

They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,
يصلونها يوم الدين
يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ

وما هم عنها بغائبين
وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ

A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ
