When the heaven is cleft asunder, |
|
| 2 |
When the planets are dispersed, |
|
| 3 |
When the seas are poured forth, |
|
| 4 |
And the sepulchres are overturned, |
|
| 5 |
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind. |
|
| 6 |
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful, |
|
| 7 |
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ? |
|
| 8 |
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee. |
|
| 9 |
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment. |
|
| 10 |
Lo! there are above you guardians, |
|
| 11 |
Generous and recording, |
|
| 12 |
Who know (all) that ye do. |
|
| 13 |
Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight. |
|
| 14 |
And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; |
|
| 15 |
They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment, |
|
| 16 |
And will not be absent thence. |
|
| 17 |
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! |
|
| 18 |
Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! |
|
| 19 |
A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah’s. |
