# Translation Ayah
1 WHEN THE SKY is cleft asunder, إِذَا السَّمَاء انشَقَّتْ
2 And hearkens to its Lord and is dutiful, وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
3 When the earth is stretched out taut وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
4 And throws out whatever it contains and is empty, وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
5 And hearkens to its Lord and is dutiful, وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
6 O man, you have to strive and go on striving towards your Lord, then will you meet Him. يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَى رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ
7 And he who is given his ledger in his right hand فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ
8 Will have an easy reckoning, فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
9 And will return to his people full of joy. وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا
10 But he who is given his ledger from behind his back وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاء ظَهْرِهِ
11 Will pray for death, فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا
12 But will be roasted in the fire. وَيَصْلَى سَعِيرًا
13 He lived rejoicing among his people, إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا
14 Never thinking he will return. إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
15 Why not? His Lord was always watching him. بَلَى إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا
16 So indeed I call to witness the evening twilight, فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ
17 And the night and all it gathers, وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
18 And the moon when at the full, وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ
19 That you will climb from stage to stage. لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
20 So, wherefore do they not believe? فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them do not bow in adoration? وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
22 In fact the unbelievers disavow. بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُكَذِّبُونَ
23 But God knows what they harbour in their breasts. وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
24 So give them news of painful punishment, فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
25 Except those who believe and do the right: For them there is reward unending. إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ
