Chapter 84, 25 verses
When the sky is rent asunder,
When the sky has split [open]
যখন আকাশ খন্ডবিখন্ড হবে,
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); -
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
আর তার প্রভুর প্রতি উৎকর্ণ হবে এবং কর্তব্যরত হবে - -
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
And when the earth is flattened out,
And when the earth has been extended
আর যখন পৃথিবীকে সমতল করা হবে,
And when the earth is spread out
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
আর তার ভেতরে যা - কিছু রয়েছে তা নিক্ষেপ করবে এবং শূন্যগর্ভ হবে,
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).
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
ফলে তার প্রভুর প্রতি উৎকর্ণ হবে এবং কর্তব্যরত হবে।
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.
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।
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,
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 whoso is given his account in his right hand
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
He will be judged with an easy account
তাকে তো তবে হিসেব চুকিয়ে দেওয়া হবে সহজ হিসেবনিকেশে,
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
And return to his people in happiness.
আর সে তার স্বজনদের কাছে ফিরে যাবে খুশি হয়ে।
And will return unto his folk in joy.
But he who is given his Record behind his back, -
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
আর তার ক্ষেত্রে যাকে তার নিবন্ধগ্রন্থ তার পিঠের পশ্চাৎ দিকে দেওয়া হবে,
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
Soon will he cry for perdition,
He will cry out for destruction
সে তখনই ধ্বংসের জন্য আর্তনাদ করবে,
He surely will invoke destruction
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
আর জ্বলন্ত আগুনে প্রবেশ করবে।
And be thrown to scorching fire.
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
নিঃসন্দেহ সে তার স্বজনদের মধ্যে ফুর্তিতে ছিল।
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
নিঃসন্দেহ সে ভেবেছিল যে সে কখনো ফিরে আসবে না।
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
না, নিঃসন্দেহ তার প্রভু বরাবর তার প্রতি দৃষ্টিদাতা।
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
So I swear by the twilight glow
কিন্ত না, আমি সাক্ষী করছি সূর্যাস্তের রক্তিমাভা,
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
The Night and its Homing;
And [by] the night and what it envelops
আর রাত্রিকে ও যা - কিছু তা তাড়িয়ে নেয়,
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
And the Moon in her fullness:
And [by] the moon when it becomes full
আর চন্দ্রকে যখন সে পূর্ণাঙ্গতা পায়,
And by the moon when she is at the full,
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
যেন তোমরা এক স্তর থেকে অন্য স্তরে আরোহণ করতে পারো।
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not? -
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
সুতরাং তাদের কী হয়েছে যে তারা ঈমান আনছে না,
What aileth them, then, that they believe not
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
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 Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
But those who have disbelieved deny,
পরন্তু যারা অবিশ্বাস করে তারা মিথ্যারোপ করে,
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
অথচ ভালো জানেন যা তারা লুকোচ্ছে।
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
অতএব তাদের সুসংবাদ দাও মর্মন্তুদ শাস্তির,
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.
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।
Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
