English - Chapter 84 - Al-Inshiqaq

When the universe is ripped apart

And it listens to its Guardian Evolver, as it must

And when the earth is flattened out

And casts up what is within it and becomes empty

And listens to its Lord, as it must

O human beings, indeed you are toiling on towards your Lord, ever toiling, but you will meet Him

Then he who is given his record in his right hand

Soon his account will be taken by an easy reckoning

And he will turn to his people rejoicing

But he who is given his record behind his back

Soon he will cry for perdition

Indeed he went about among his people, rejoicing

Indeed he thought that he would not have to return to Us

No, no, for his Lord was watchful of him

So I call to witness the ruddy glow of sunset

The night and its homing

And the moon in its fullness

You will surely travel from stage to stage

What then is the matter with them that they do not believe

And when the Quran is read to them, they do not fall prostrate

But instead the unbelievers reject it

But God has full knowledge of what they hide

So announce to them a terrible penalty

Except to those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them is a reward that will never fail
