English - Chapter 84 - Al-Inshiqaq

When the heaven shall be rent in sunder

and shall obey its Lord, and shall be capable thereof

and when the earth shall be stretched out

and shall cast forth that which is therein, and shall remain empty

and shall obey its Lord, and shall be capable thereof

O man, verily labouring thou labourest to meet thy Lord, and thou shalt meet Him

And he who shall have his book given into his right hand

shall be called to an easy account

and shall turn unto his family with joy

shall invoke destruction to fall upon him

and he shall be sent into hell to be burned

because he rejoiced insolently amidst his family on earth

Verily he thought that he should never return unto God

Yea verily; but his Lord beheld him

Wherefore I swear by the redness of the sky after sun-set

and by the night, and the animals which it driveth together

and by the moon when she is at the full

ye shall surely be transferred successively from state to state

What aileth them, therefore, that they believe not the resurrection

and that, when the Koran is read unto them, they worship not

Yea: The unbelievers accuse the same of imposture

But God well knoweth the malice which they keep hidden in their breasts

Wherefore denounce unto them a grievous punishment

except those who believe and do good works: For them is prepared a never failing reward
