84. Al-Inshiqaq - The Splitting Asunder
1 | When the heaven breaks apart. |
2 | And it listens to the command of its Lord – and that befits it. |
3 | And when the earth is spread out. |
4 | And it unburdens itself of all that is in it, and becomes empty. |
5 | And it listens to the command of its Lord – and that befits it. |
6 | O man, indeed you have to surely run towards your Lord, and to meet him. |
7 | So whoever is given his record of deeds in his right hand – |
8 | Soon an easy account will be taken from him. |
9 | And he will return to his family rejoicing. |
10 | And whoever is given his record of deeds behind his back – |
11 | Soon he will pray for death. |
12 | And will go into the blazing fire. |
13 | Indeed he used to rejoice in his home. |
14 | He assumed that he does not have to return. |
15 | Surely yes, why not? Indeed his Lord is seeing him. |
16 | So by oath of the late evening’s light. |
17 | And by oath of the night and all that gathers in it. |
18 | And by oath of the moon when it is full. |
19 | You will surely go up level by level. |
20 | What is the matter with them that they do not accept faith? |
21 | And when the Qur’an is recited to them, they do not fall prostrate? (Command of Prostration # 13) |
22 | In fact the disbelievers keep denying. |
23 | And Allah well knows what they conceal in their hearts. |
24 | Therefore give them the glad tidings of a painful punishment. |
25 | Except those who believed and did good deeds – for them is a reward that will never end. |
