Surah Al-Infitar

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ ۝١

When the sky is cleft asunder;

وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ ۝٢

and when the stars are scattered;

وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ ۝٣

when the seas overflow;

وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ ۝٤

and when the graves are laid open:

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ ۝٥

then everyone will know what he has sent ahead, and what he has left behind.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ ۝٦

O man! What is it that lures you away from your bountiful Sustainer,

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ ۝٧

who created you, fashioned you and proportioned you,

فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ ۝٨

in whatever form He pleased?

كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ ۝٩

Yet you deny the Last Judgement.

وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ ۝١٠

Surely, there are guardians watching over you,

كِرَامًا كَٰتِبِينَ ۝١١

noble recorders,

يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ ۝١٢

who know all that you do:

إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ ۝١٣

the virtuous will dwell in bliss,

وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ ۝١٤

whereas the wicked will be in Hell;

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٥

which they shall enter on the Day of Judgement,

وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ ۝١٦

and from which they will find no escape.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٧

What will make you realize what the Day of Judgement will be?

ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٨

Again: what will make you realize what the Day of Judgement will be?

يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا ۖ وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ ۝١٩

It will be a Day when no human being shall be of the least avail to any other human being, God [alone] will hold command on that Day.
