The Sundering

84:1

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ

When the heaven is split asunder

84:2

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And attentive to her Lord in fear

84:3

وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ

And when the earth is spread out

84:4

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ

And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty

84:5

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And attentive to her Lord in fear

84:6

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَـٰقِيهِ

Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence)

84:7

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ

Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

84:8

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا

He truly will receive an easy reckoning

84:9

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

And will return unto his folk in joy

84:10

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ

But whoso is given his account behind his back

84:11

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا

He surely will invoke destruction

84:12

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

And be thrown to scorching fire

84:13

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

He verily lived joyous with his folk

84:14

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah)

84:15

بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا

Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him

84:16

فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ

Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset

84:17

وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

And by the night and all that it enshroudeth

84:18

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ

And by the moon when she is at the full

84:19

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ

That ye shall journey on from plane to plane

84:20

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

What aileth them, then, that they believe not

84:21

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩

And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)

84:22

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ

Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny

84:23

وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding

84:24

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

So give them tidings of a painful doom

84:25

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ

Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing
