1 When the heaven is cleft asunder, |
2 And when the stars become dispersed, |
3 And when the rivers are made to flow forth, |
4 And when the graves are laid open — |
5 Every soul will know what it has sent before and what it has held back. |
6 O man, what beguiles thee from thy Lord, the Gracious? |
7 Who created thee, then made thee complete, then made thee in a right good state — |
8 Into whatever form He pleases He casts thee. |
9 Nay, but you give the lie to the Judgment, |
10 And surely there are keepers over you, |
11 Honourable recorders, |
12 They know what you do. |
13 Surely the righteous are in bliss, |
14 And the wicked are truly in burning Fire — |
15 They will enter it on the day of Judgment. |
16 And will not be absent from it. |
17 And what will make thee realize what the day of Judgment is? |
18 Again, what will make thee realize what the day of Judgment is? |
19 The day when no soul controls aught for another soul. And the command on that day is Allāh’s. |
1 Woe to the cheaters! |
