The Cleaving

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتۡ

When the sky breaks apart

وَإِذَا ٱلۡكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتۡ

And when the stars fall, scattering

وَإِذَا ٱلۡبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتۡ

And when the seas are erupted

وَإِذَا ٱلۡقُبُورُ بُعۡثِرَتۡ

And when the [contents of] graves are scattered

عَلِمَتۡ نَفۡسٞ مَّا قَدَّمَتۡ وَأَخَّرَتۡ

A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلۡكَرِيمِ

O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ

Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you

فِيٓ أَيِّ صُورَةٖ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ

In whatever form He willed has He assembled you

كَلَّا بَلۡ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ

No! But you deny the Recompense

وَإِنَّ عَلَيۡكُمۡ لَحَٰفِظِينَ

And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers

كِرَامٗا كَٰتِبِينَ

Noble and recording

يَعۡلَمُونَ مَا تَفۡعَلُونَ

They know whatever you do

إِنَّ ٱلۡأَبۡرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٖ

Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

وَإِنَّ ٱلۡفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٖ

And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire

يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ

They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense

وَمَا هُمۡ عَنۡهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ

And never therefrom will they be absent

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ

And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense

ثُمَّ مَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ

Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense

يَوۡمَ لَا تَمۡلِكُ نَفۡسٞ لِّنَفۡسٖ شَيۡـٔٗاۖ وَٱلۡأَمۡرُ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلَّهِ

It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah
