| 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 the 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 Qur'an 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 Penalty Grievous. | ||
| 25 | Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: for them is a Reward that will never fail. | ||
