English - Chapter 84 - Al-Inshiqaq

When heaven is rent asunder

and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed

when earth is stretched out

and casts forth what is in it, and voids itself

and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed

O Man! Thou art labouring unto thy Lord laboriously, and thou shalt encounter Him

Then as for him who is given his book in his right hand

he shall surely receive an easy reckoning

But as for him who is given his book behind his back

he shall call for destruction

and he shall roast at a Blaze

He once lived among his family joyfully

he surely thought he would never revert

Yes indeed; his Lord had sight of him

No! I swear by the twilight

and the night and what it envelops

and the moon when it is at the full

you shall surely ride stage after stage

Then what ails them, that they believe not

and when the Koran is recited to them they do not bow

Nay, but the unbelievers are crying lies

and God knows very well what they are secreting

So give them good tidings of a painful chastisement

except those that believe, and do righteous deeds -- theirs shall be a wage unfailing
