Audio

اِذَا السَّمَاۤءُ انْشَقَّتْۙ

iżas-samā`unsyaqqat

WHEN THE SKY is cleft asunder

وَاَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْۙ

wa ażinat lirabbihā wa ḥuqqat

And hearkens to its Lord and is dutiful

وَاِذَا الْاَرْضُ مُدَّتْۙ

wa iżal-arḍu muddat

When the earth is stretched out taut

وَاَلْقَتْ مَا فِيْهَا وَتَخَلَّتْۙ

wa alqat mā fīhā wa takhallat

And throws out whatever it contains and is empty

وَاَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْۗ

wa ażinat lirabbihā wa ḥuqqat

And hearkens to its Lord and is dutiful

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الْاِنْسَانُ اِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ اِلٰى رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلٰقِيْهِۚ

yā ayyuhal-insānu innaka kādiḥun ilā rabbika kad-ḥan fa mulāqīh

O man you have to strive and go on striving towards your Lord then will you meet Him.

فَاَمَّا مَنْ اُوْتِيَ كِتٰبَهٗ بِيَمِيْنِهٖۙ

fa ammā man ụtiya kitābahụ biyamīnih

And he who is given his ledger in his right hand

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَّسِيْرًاۙ

fa saufa yuḥāsabu ḥisābay yasīrā

Will have an easy reckoning

وَّيَنْقَلِبُ اِلٰٓى اَهْلِهٖ مَسْرُوْرًاۗ

wa yangqalibu ilā ahlihī masrụrā

And will return to his people full of joy.

وَاَمَّا مَنْ اُوْتِيَ كِتٰبَهٗ وَرَاۤءَ ظَهْرِهٖۙ

wa ammā man ụtiya kitābahụ warā`a ẓahrih

But he who is given his ledger from behind his back

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوْ ثُبُوْرًاۙ

fa saufa yad'ụ ṡubụrā

Will pray for death

وَّيَصْلٰى سَعِيْرًاۗ

wa yaṣlā sa'īrā

But will be roasted in the fire.

اِنَّهٗ كَانَ فِيْٓ اَهْلِهٖ مَسْرُوْرًاۗ

innahụ kāna fī ahlihī masrụrā

He lived rejoicing among his people

اِنَّهٗ ظَنَّ اَنْ لَّنْ يَّحُوْرَ ۛ

innahụ ẓanna al lay yaḥụr

Never thinking he will return.

بَلٰىۛ اِنَّ رَبَّهٗ كَانَ بِهٖ بَصِيْرًاۗ

balā inna rabbahụ kāna bihī baṣīrā

Why not? His Lord was always watching him.

فَلَآ اُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِۙ

fa lā uqsimu bisy-syafaq

So indeed I call to witness the evening twilight

وَالَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَۙ

wal-laili wa mā wasaq

And the night and all it gathers

وَالْقَمَرِ اِذَا اتَّسَقَۙ

wal-qamari iżattasaq

And the moon when at the full

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَنْ طَبَقٍۗ

latarkabunna ṭabaqan 'an ṭabaq

That you will climb from stage to stage.

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَۙ

fa mā lahum lā yu`minụn

So wherefore do they not believe?

وَاِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْاٰنُ لَا يَسْجُدُوْنَ ۗ ۩

wa iżā quri`a 'alaihimul-qur`ānu lā yasjudụn

And when the Qur´an is recited to them do not bow in adoration?

بَلِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا يُكَذِّبُوْنَۖ

balillażīna kafarụ yukażżibụn

In fact the unbelievers disavow.

وَاللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوْعُوْنَۖ

wallāhu a'lamu bimā yụ'ụn

But God knows what they harbour in their breasts.

فَبَشِّرْهُمْ بِعَذَابٍ اَلِيْمٍۙ

fa basysyir-hum bi'ażābin alīm

So give them news of painful punishment

اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَهُمْ اَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُوْنٍ

illallażīna āmanụ wa 'amiluṣ-ṣāliḥāti lahum ajrun gairu mamnụn

Except those who believe and do the right: For them there is reward unending.
