| 1. * | When the heaven is split asunder, |
| 2. * | And listens and obeys its Lord, and it must do so; |
| 3. * | And when the earth is stretched forth, |
| 4. * | And has cast out all that was in it and became empty, |
| 5. * | And listens and obeys its Lord, and it must do so; |
| 6. * | O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, so you will meet (i.e. the results of your deeds which you did). |
| 7. * | Then, as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand, |
| 8. * | He surely will receive an easy reckoning, |
| 9. * | And will return to his family in joy! |
| 10. * | But whosoever is given his Record behind his back, |
| 11. * | He will invoke (his) destruction, |
| 12. * | And shall enter a blazing Fire, and made to taste its burning. |
| 13. * | Verily, he was among his people in joy! |
| 14. * | Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)! |
| 15. * | Yes! Verily, his Lord has been ever beholding him! |
| 16. * | So I swear by the afterglow of sunset; |
| 17. * | And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness; |
| 18. * | And by the moon when it is at the full, |
| 19. * | You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter). |
| 20. * | What is the matter with them, that they believe not? |
| 21. * | And when the Quran is recited to them, they fall not prostrate, |
| 22. * | Nay, (on the contrary), those who disbelieve, belie (Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and whatever he brought, i.e. this Quran and Islamic Monotheism, etc.). |
| 23. * | And Allah knows best what they gather (of good and bad deeds), |
| 24. * | So announce to them a painful torment. |
| 25. * | Save those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them is a reward that will never come to an end (i.e. Paradise). |
