shakir
 
1.  *     When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
 
2.  *     And when the stars become dispersed,
 
3.  *     And when the seas are made to flow forth,
 
4.  *     And when the graves are laid open,
 
5.  *     Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
 
6.  *     O man ! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
 
7.  *     Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
 
8.  *     Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
 
9.  *     Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,
 
10.  *     And most surely there are keepers over you
 
11.  *     Honorable recorders,
 
12.  *     They know what you do.
 
13.  *     Most surely the righteous are in bliss,
 
14.  *     And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
 
15.  *     They shall enter it on the day of judgment.
 
16.  *     And they shall by no means be absent from it.
 
17.  *     And what will make you realize what the day of judgement is?
 
18.  *     Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment Is?
 
19.  *     The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.
