1. |
When the Sky is rent asunder,
|
|
2. |
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so);-
|
|
3. |
And when the earth is flattened out,
|
|
4. |
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
|
|
5. |
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord,- and it must needs (do so);- (then will come Home the full reality).
|
|
6. |
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord- painfully toiling,- but thou shalt meet Him.
|
|
7. |
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,
|
|
8. |
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
|
|
9. |
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
|
|
10. |
But he who is given his Record behind his back,-
|
|
11. |
Soon will he cry for Perdition,
|
|
12. |
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
|
|
13. |
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
|
|
14. |
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
|
|
15. |
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
|
|
16. |
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
|
|
17. |
The Night and its Homing;
|
|
18. |
And the Moon in her fullness:
|
|
19. |
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
|
|
20. |
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not?-
|
|
21. |
And when the Quran is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
|
|
22. |
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
|
|
23. |
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
|
|
24. |
So announce to them a Chastisement Grievous,
|
|
25. |
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: for them is a Reward that will never fail.
