بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

  1. 1إِذَا ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ ٱنشَقَّتۡ

    When the sky has split [open]

  2. 2وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ

    And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

  3. 3وَإِذَا ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مُدَّتۡ

    And when the earth has been extended

  4. 4وَأَلۡقَتۡ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتۡ

    And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]

  5. 5وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ

    And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -

  6. 6يَـٰۤأَيُّهَا ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدۡحࣰا فَمُلَـٰقِيهِ

    O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

  7. 7فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ

    Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

  8. 8فَسَوۡفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابࣰا يَسِيرࣰا

    He will be judged with an easy account

  9. 9وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰۤ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورࣰا

    And return to his people in happiness.

  10. 10وَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَاۤءَ ظَهۡرِهِۦ

    But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

  11. 11فَسَوۡفَ يَدۡعُواْ ثُبُورࣰا

    He will cry out for destruction

  12. 12وَيَصۡلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

    And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

  13. 13إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِیۤ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورًا

    Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

  14. 14إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

    Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

  15. 15بَلَىٰۤۚ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرࣰا

    But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

  16. 16فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ

    So I swear by the twilight glow

  17. 17وَٱلَّيۡلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

    And [by] the night and what it envelops

  18. 18وَٱلۡقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ

    And [by] the moon when it becomes full

  19. 19لَتَرۡكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقࣲ

    [That] you will surely experience state after state.

  20. 20فَمَا لَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ

    So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

  21. 21وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ لَا يَسۡجُدُونَ۩

    And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

  22. 22بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُكَذِّبُونَ

    But those who have disbelieved deny,

  23. 23وَٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

    And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

  24. 24فَبَشِّرۡهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

    So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

  25. 25إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمۡ أَجۡرٌ غَيۡرُ مَمۡنُونِۭ

    Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
