When the sky is rent asunder,
যখন আকাশ বিদীর্ণ হবে,
When the heaven bursts asunder,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so); -
ও তার পালনকর্তার আদেশ পালন করবে এবং আকাশ এরই উপযুক্ত
And obeys its Lord and it must.
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
And when the earth is flattened out,
এবং যখন পৃথিবীকে সম্প্রসারিত করা হবে।
And when the earth is stretched,
And when the earth is spread out
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
এবং পৃথিবী তার গর্ভস্থিত সবকিছু বাইরে নিক্ষেপ করবে ও শুন্যগর্ভ হয়ে যাবে।
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,
And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, - and it must needs (do so); - (then will come Home the full reality).
এবং তার পালনকর্তার আদেশ পালন করবে এবং পৃথিবী এরই উপযুক্ত।
And obeys its Lord and it must.
And attentive to her Lord in fear!
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord - painfully toiling, - but thou shalt meet Him.
হে মানুষ, তোমাকে তোমরা পালনকর্তা পর্যন্ত পৌছতে কষ্ট স্বীকার করতে হবে, অতঃপর তার সাক্ষাৎ ঘটবে।
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 he who is given his Record in his right hand,
যাকে তার আমলনামা ডান হাতে দেয়া হবে
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
তার হিসাব - নিকাশ সহজে হয়ে যাবে
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
এবং সে তার পরিবার - পরিজনের কাছে হৃষ্টচিত্তে ফিরে যাবে
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
And will return unto his folk in joy.
But he who is given his Record behind his back, -
এবং যাকে তার আমলনামা পিঠের পশ্চাদ্দিক থেকে দেয়া, হবে,
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
Soon will he cry for perdition,
সে মৃত্যুকে আহবান করবে,
He shall call for perdition,
He surely will invoke destruction
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
এবং জাহান্নামে প্রবেশ করবে।
And enter into burning fire.
And be thrown to scorching fire.
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
সে তার পরিবার - পরিজনের মধ্যে আনন্দিত ছিল।
Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
সে মনে করত যে, সে কখনও ফিরে যাবে না।
Surely he thought that he would never return.
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
কেন যাবে না, তার পালনকর্তা তো তাকে দেখতেন।
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
আমি শপথ করি সন্ধ্যাকালীন লাল আভার
But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
The Night and its Homing;
এবং রাত্রির, এবং তাতে যার সমাবেশ ঘটে
And the night and that which it drives on,
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
And the Moon in her fullness:
এবং চন্দ্রের, যখন তা পূর্ণরূপ লাভ করে,
And the moon when it grows full,
And by the moon when she is at the full,
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
নিশ্চয় তোমরা এক সিঁড়ি থেকে আরেক সিঁড়িতে আরোহণ করবে।
That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not? -
অতএব, তাদের কি হল যে, তারা ঈমান আনে 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 read to them, they fall not prostrate,
যখন তাদের কাছে কোরআন পাঠ করা হয়, তখন সেজদা 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 on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
বরং কাফেররা এর প্রতি মিথ্যারোপ করে।
Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
তারা যা সংরক্ষণ করে, তা জানেন।
And Allah knows best what they hide,
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
অতএব, তাদেরকে যন্ত্রণাদায়ক শাস্তির সুসংবাদ দিন।
So announce to them a painful punishment~
So give them tidings of a painful doom,
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.
কিন্তু যারা বিশ্বাস স্থাপন করে ও সৎকর্ম করে, তাদের জন্য রয়েছে অফুরন্ত পুরস্কার।
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.
