| بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمـَنِ الرَّحِيمِ | |
| In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. | |
| إِذَا السَّمَاء انفَطَرَتْ |
01 |
| When the heaven is cleft asunder. | |
| وَإِذَا الْكَوَاكِبُ انتَثَرَتْ |
02 |
| And when the stars have fallen and scattered; | |
| وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ |
03 |
| And when the seas are burst forth (got dried up); | |
| وَإِذَا الْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ |
04 |
| And when the graves are turned upside down (and they bring out their contents) | |
| عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ |
05 |
| (Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds). | |
| يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ الْكَرِيمِ |
06 |
| O man! What has made you careless concerning your Lord, the Most Generous? | |
| الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّاكَ فَعَدَلَكَ |
07 |
| Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion; | |
| فِي أَيِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَاء رَكَّبَكَ |
08 |
| In whatever form He willed, He put you together. | |
| كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِالدِّينِ |
09 |
| Nay! But you deny the Recompense (reward for good deeds and punishment for evil deeds). | |
| وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَافِظِينَ |
10 |
| But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you , | |
| كِرَامًا كَاتِبِينَ |
11 |
| Kirâman (honourable) Kâtibîn writing down (your deeds) , | |
| يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ |
12 |
| They know all that you do. | |
| إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ |
13 |
| Verily, the Abrâr (pious and righteous) will be in delight (Paradise); | |
| وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ |
14 |
| And verily, the Fujjâr (the wicked, disbelievers, sinners and evil-doers) will be in the blazing Fire (Hell), | |
| يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ |
15 |
| In which they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense, | |
| وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَائِبِينَ |
16 |
| And they (Al-Fujjâr) will not be absent therefrom (i.e. will not go out from the Hell). | |
| وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ |
17 |
| And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? | |
| ثُمَّ مَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ |
18 |
| Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? | |
| يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْئًا وَالْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلَّهِ |
19 |
| (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power (to do) anything for another, and the Decision, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allâh. | |
