Al-Inshiqaq

Translation: Pickthall

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ

When the heaven is split asunder 84:1

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And attentive to her Lord in fear, 84:2

وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ

And when the earth is spread out 84:3

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ

And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty 84:4

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And attentive to her Lord in fear! 84:5

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ

Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence). 84:6

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ

Then whoso is given his account in his right hand 84:7

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا

He truly will receive an easy reckoning 84:8

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

And will return unto his folk in joy. 84:9

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ

But whoso is given his account behind his back, 84:10

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا

He surely will invoke destruction 84:11

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

And be thrown to scorching fire. 84:12

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

He verily lived joyous with his folk, 84:13

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah). 84:14

بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا

Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him! 84:15

فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ

Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset, 84:16

وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

And by the night and all that it enshroudeth, 84:17

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ

And by the moon when she is at the full, 84:18

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ

That ye shall journey on from plane to plane. 84:19

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

What aileth them, then, that they believe not 84:20

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ

And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)? 84:21

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ

Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny; 84:22

وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding. 84:23

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

So give them tidings of a painful doom, 84:24

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ

Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing. 84:25
