English - Chapter 82 - Al-Infitar

WHEN THE SKY is cleft asunder

and when the seas burst beyond their bounds

and when the graves are overturned –

every human being will [at last] comprehend, what he has sent ahead and what he has held back [in this world]

O MAN! What is it that lures thee away from thy bountiful Sustainer

who has created thee, and formed thee in accordance with what thou art meant' to be, and shaped thy nature in just proportions

having put thee together in whatever form He willed [thee to have]

Nay, [O men,] but you [are lured away from God whenever you are tempted to] give the lie to [God’s] Judgment

And yet, verily, there are ever-watchful forces over you

noble, recording

aware of whatever you do

Behold, [in the life to come] the truly virtuous: will indeed be in bliss

whereas, behold, the wicked will indeed be in a blazing fire –

[a fire] which they shall enter on Judgment Day

and which they shall not [be able to] evade

And what could make thee conceive what that Judgment Day will be

And once again: What could make thee conceive what that Judgment Day will be

[It will be] a Day when no human being shall be of the least avail to another human being: for on that Day [it will become manifest that] all sovereignty is God's alone
