1. When the heaven is split asunder,

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتۡ ۝١

2

2. And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.

وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ ۝٢

3

3. And when the earth is stretched forth,

وَإِذَا ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مُدَّتۡ ۝٣

4

4. And has cast out all that was in it and became empty.

وَأَلۡقَتۡ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتۡ ۝٤

5

5. And listens to and obeys its Lord - and it must do so.

وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ ۝٥

6

6. O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, and you will meet (the results of your deeds which you did).

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدۡحٗا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ ۝٦

7

7. Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand,

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِيَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ ۝٧

8

8. He surely will receive an easy reckoning,

فَسَوۡفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابٗا يَسِيرٗا ۝٨

9

9. And will return to his family in joy!

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورٗا ۝٩

10

10. But whosoever is given his Record behind his back,

وَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِيَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهۡرِهِۦ ۝١٠

11

11. He will invoke (for his) destruction,

فَسَوۡفَ يَدۡعُواْ ثُبُورٗا ۝١١

12

12. And he shall enter a blazing Fire, and be made to taste its burning.

وَيَصۡلَىٰ سَعِيرًا ۝١٢

13

13. Verily, he was among his people in joy!

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِيٓ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورًا ۝١٣

14

14. Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)!

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ ۝١٤

15

15. Yes! Verily, his Lord has been ever beholding him!

بَلَىٰٓۚ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرٗا ۝١٥

16

16. So I swear by the afterglow of sunset;

فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ ۝١٦

17

17. And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness,

وَٱلَّيۡلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ ۝١٧

18

18. And by the moon when it is at the full.

وَٱلۡقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ ۝١٨

19

19. You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter).

لَتَرۡكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٖ ۝١٩

20

20. What is the matter with them, that they believe not?

فَمَا لَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ ۝٢٠

21

21. And when the Qur’ân is recited to them, they fall not prostrate.

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ لَا يَسۡجُدُونَۤ۩ ۝٢١

22

22. Nay, those who disbelieve belie (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and whatever he brought, i.e. this Qur’ân and Islâmic Monotheism, etc.).[1]

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٢٢

23

23. And Allâh knows best what they gather (of good and bad deeds),

وَٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ ۝٢٣

24

24. So announce to them a painful torment.

فَبَشِّرۡهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ۝٢٤

25

25. Save those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them is a reward that will never come to an end (i.e. Paradise).

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمۡ أَجۡرٌ غَيۡرُ مَمۡنُونِۭ ۝٢٥
