# Translation Ayah
1 When heaven is split open, إِذَا السَّمَاء انفَطَرَتْ
2 when the stars are scattered, وَإِذَا الْكَوَاكِبُ انتَثَرَتْ
3 when the seas swarm over, وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ
4 when the tombs are overthrown, وَإِذَا الْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ
5 then a soul shall know its works, the former and the latter. عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ
6 O Man! What deceived thee as to thy generous Lord يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ الْكَرِيمِ
7 who created thee and shaped thee and wrought thee in symmetry الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّاكَ فَعَدَلَكَ
8 and composed thee after what form He would? فِي أَيِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَاء رَكَّبَكَ
9 No indeed; but you cry lies to the Doom; كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِالدِّينِ
10 yet there are over you watchers وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَافِظِينَ
11 noble, writers كِرَامًا كَاتِبِينَ
12 who know whatever you do. يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ
13 Surely the pious shall be in bliss, إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
14 and the libertines shall be in a fiery furnace وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ
15 roasting therein on the Day of Doom, يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ
16 nor shall they ever be absent from it. وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَائِبِينَ
17 And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Doom? وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
18 Again, what shall teach thee what is the Day of Doom? ثُمَّ مَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
19 A day when no soul shall possess aught to succour another soul; that day the Command shall belong unto God. يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْئًا وَالْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلَّهِ
