بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ إِذَا ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ ٱنشَقَّتۡ

When heaven is rent asunder

وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ

and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed;

وَإِذَا ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مُدَّتۡ

when earth is stretched out

وَأَلۡقَتۡ مَا فِیهَا وَتَخَلَّتۡ

and casts forth what is in it, and voids itself,

وَأَذِنَتۡ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتۡ

and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed!

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدۡحࣰا فَمُلَـٰقِیهِ

O Man! Thou art labouring unto thy Lord laboriously, and thou shalt encounter Him.

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِیَمِینِهِۦ

Then as for him who is given his book in his right hand,

فَسَوۡفَ یُحَاسَبُ حِسَابࣰا یَسِیرࣰا

he shall surely receive an easy reckoning

وَیَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰۤ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورࣰا

and he will return to his family joyfully.

وَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِیَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَاۤءَ ظَهۡرِهِۦ

But as for him who is given his book behind his back,

فَسَوۡفَ یَدۡعُوا۟ ثُبُورࣰا

he shall call for destruction

وَیَصۡلَىٰ سَعِیرًا

and he shall roast at a Blaze.

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِیۤ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورًا

He once lived among his family joyfully;

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن یَحُورَ

he surely thought he would never revert.

بَلَىٰۤۚ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِیرࣰا

Yes indeed; his Lord had sight of him.

فَلَاۤ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ

No! I swear by the twilight

وَٱلَّیۡلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

and the night and what it envelops

وَٱلۡقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ

and the moon when it is at the full,

لَتَرۡكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقࣲ

you shall surely ride stage after stage.

فَمَا لَهُمۡ لَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ

Then what ails them, that they believe not,

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ لَا یَسۡجُدُونَ ۩

and when the Koran is recited to them they do not bow?

بَلِ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ یُكَذِّبُونَ

Nay, but the unbelievers are crying lies,

وَٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا یُوعُونَ

and God knows very well what they are secreting.

فَبَشِّرۡهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِیمٍ

So give them good tidings of a painful chastisement,

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمۡ أَجۡرٌ غَیۡرُ مَمۡنُونِۭ

except those that believe, and do righteous deeds -- theirs shall be a wage unfailing.
