Al-Inshiqaq

¹When the sky has split [open]

²And has listened [i.e., responded][1888] to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

³And when the earth has been extended[1889]

⁴And has cast out that within it[1890] and relinquished [it]

⁵And has listened [i.e., responded] to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] –

⁶O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion[1891] and will meet it.[1892]

⁷Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

⁸He will be judged with an easy account

⁹And return to his people in happiness.

¹⁰But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

¹¹He will cry out for destruction

¹²And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

¹³Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

¹⁴Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allāh].

¹⁵But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever, of him, Seeing.

¹⁶So I swear by the twilight glow

¹⁷And [by] the night and what it envelops

¹⁸And [by] the moon when it becomes full

¹⁹[That] you will surely embark upon [i.e., experience] state after state.[1893]

²⁰So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

²¹And when the Qur’ān is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allāh]?

²²But those who have disbelieved deny,

²³And Allāh is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

²⁴So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

²⁵Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
