إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ۝١

1When the heaven bursts asunder,

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ۝٢

2And obeys its Lord and it must.

وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ۝٣

3And when the earth is stretched,

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ۝٤

4And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ۝٥

5And obeys its Lord and it must.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ۝٦

6O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ۝٧

7Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا۝٨

8He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا۝٩

9And he shall go back to his people joyful.

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ۝١٠

10And as to him who is given his book behind his back,

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا۝١١

11He shall call for perdition,

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا۝١٢

12And enter into burning fire.

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا۝١٣

13Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ۝١٤

14Surely he thought that he would never return.

بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا۝١٥

15Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.

فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ۝١٦

16But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,

وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ۝١٧

17And the night and that which it drives on,

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ۝١٨

18And the moon when it grows full,

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ۝١٩

19That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ۝٢٠

20But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩۝٢١

21And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ۝٢٢

22Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.

وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ۝٢٣

23And Allah knows best what they hide,

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ۝٢٤

24So announce to them a painful punishment~

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ۝٢٥

25Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.
