In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ ١ i

When the sky has split [open] (1)

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ٢ i

And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] (2)

وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ ٣ i

And when the earth has been extended (3)

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ ٤ i

And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it] (4)

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ٥ i

And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] - (5)

يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنْسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ ٦ i

O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it. (6)

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ ٧ i

Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand, (7)

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا ٨ i

He will be judged with an easy account (8)

وَيَنْقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا ٩ i

And return to his people in happiness. (9)

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ ١٠ i

But as for he who is given his record behind his back, (10)

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا ١١ i

He will cry out for destruction (11)

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا ١٢ i

And [enter to] burn in a Blaze. (12)

إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا ١٣ i

Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness; (13)

إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَنْ لَنْ يَحُورَ ١٤ i

Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah]. (14)

بَلَىٰ إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا ١٥ i

But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing. (15)

فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ ١٦ i

So I swear by the twilight glow (16)

وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ ١٧ i

And [by] the night and what it envelops (17)

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ ١٨ i

And [by] the moon when it becomes full (18)

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَنْ طَبَقٍ ١٩ i

[That] you will surely experience state after state. (19)

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ٢٠ i

So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe, (20)

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ ٢١ i

And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]? (21)

بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُكَذِّبُونَ ٢٢ i

But those who have disbelieved deny, (22)

وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ ٢٣ i

And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves. (23)

فَبَشِّرْهُمْ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ٢٤ i

So give them tidings of a painful punishment, (24)

إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ ٢٥ i

Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted. (25)
