When the sky is rent asunder,
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky is rent asunder,
Itha alssamao inshaqqat
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so); -
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
And when the earth is flattened out,
Waitha alardu muddat
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, - and it must needs (do so); - (then will come Home the full reality).
Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord - painfully toiling, - but thou shalt meet Him.
Ya ayyuha alinsanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,
Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran
But he who is given his Record behind his back, -
Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi
Soon will he cry for perdition,
Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
Wayasla saAAeeran
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
Innahu thanna an lan yahoora
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi
The Night and its Homing;
Waallayli wama wasaqa
And the Moon in her fullness:
Waalqamari itha ittasaqa
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not? -
Fama lahum la yuminoona
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.
Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
