| 1. * | When the heaven is split asunder |
| 2. * | And attentive to her Lord in fear, |
| 3. * | And when the earth is spread out |
| 4. * | And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty |
| 5. * | And attentive to her Lord in fear! |
| 6. * | Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence). |
| 7. * | Then whoso is given his account in his right hand |
| 8. * | He truly will receive an easy reckoning |
| 9. * | And will return unto his folk in joy. |
| 10. * | But whoso is given his account behind his back, |
| 11. * | He surely will invoke destruction |
| 12. * | And be thrown to scorching fire. |
| 13. * | He verily lived joyous with his folk, |
| 14. * | He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah). |
| 15. * | Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him! |
| 16. * | Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset, |
| 17. * | And by the night and all that it enshroudeth, |
| 18. * | And by the moon when she is at the full, |
| 19. * | That ye shall journey on from plane to plane. |
| 20. * | What aileth them, then, that they believe not |
| 21. * | And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)? |
| 22. * | Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny; |
| 23. * | And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding. |
| 24. * | So give them tidings of a painful doom, |
| 25. * | Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing. |
