Surah Al-Inshiqaq (The Splitting Open) — سُورَةُ الإنشقاق
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
iIn the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ i
When the sky has split [open] (1)
وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ i
And when the earth has been extended (3)
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ i
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it] (4)
يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنْسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ i
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it. (6)
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ i
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand, (7)
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ i
But as for he who is given his record behind his back, (10)
إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا i
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness; (13)
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ i
So I swear by the twilight glow (16)
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ i
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]? (21)
وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ i
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves. (23)
إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ i
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted. (25)
