82. Al-Infitaar - The Cleaving

1WHEN THE SKY is split asunder,
2And the stars dispersed,
3When the oceans begin to flow,
4When the graves are overturned,
5Each soul will know what it had sent ahead and what it had left behind.
6O man, what seduced you from your munificent Lord
7Who created you then formed your symmetry, then gave you right proportion,
8Shaping you into any form He pleased?
9Even then you deny the Judgement.
10Surely there are guardians over you,
11Illustrious scribes
12Who know what you do.
13The pious will surely be in heaven,
14The wicked certainly in Hell:
15They will burn in it on the Day of Judgement,
16And will not be removed from it.
17How can you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is?
18How then can you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is?
19It is the day when no soul will have power to do the least for a soul, and God's alone will be done.
