English - Chapter 84 - Al-Inshiqaq

When the sky bursts open

obeying its Lord as it must

and when the earth is flattened out

and ejects ˹all˺ its contents and becomes empty

obeying its Lord as it must, ˹surely you will all be judged˺

O humanity! Indeed, you are labouring restlessly towards your Lord, and will ˹eventually˺ meet the consequences

As for those who are given their record in their right hand

they will have an easy reckoning

and will return to their people joyfully

And as for those who are given their record ˹in their left hand˺ from behind their backs

they will cry for ˹instant˺ destruction

and will burn in the blazing Fire

thinking they would never return ˹to God˺

Yes ˹they would˺! Surely their Lord has always been All-Seeing of them

So, I do swear by the twilight

And by the night and whatever it envelops

And by the moon when it waxes full

You will certainly pass from one state to another

So what is the matter with them that they do not believe

and when the Quran is recited to them, they do not bow down ˹in submission˺

In fact, the disbelievers persist in denial

But God knows best whatever they hide

So give them good news of a painful punishment

But those who believe and do good will have a never-ending reward
