In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
- When the Sky is rent asunder
- And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord and it must needs (do so)- -
- And when the Earth is flattened out
- And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty
- And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord and it must needs (do so)- -(then will come Home the full Reality).
- O thou man! verily thou art ever toiling on towards the Lord painfully toiling but thou shalt meet Him.
- Then he who is given his Record in his Right hand
- Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning
- And he will turn to his people rejoicing!
- But he who is given his Record behind his back
- Soon will he cry for Perdition
- And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
- Truly did he go about among his people rejoicing!
- Truly did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
- Nay nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
- So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
- The Night and its Homing;
- And the Moon in her Fullness;
- Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
- What then is the matter with them that they believe not?
- And when the Qur'an is read to them they fall not prostrate.
- But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
- But Allah has full Knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts).
- So announce to them a Penalty Grievous
- Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: for them is a Reward that will never fail.
