82 Surah Al Infitar – The Shattering
In the name of Allah, the entirely Merciful, the especially Merciful
- When the sky splits open
- And when the stars fall, scattering,
- and when the seas are made to burst,
- And when the graves will be moved and those who’re in them will come out
- A person will know the good or bad deeds he has done and the deeds that he did not do.
- O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?
- The One Who created you, shaped you, and perfected your design,
- moulding you in whatever form He willed?
- No! There is no reason for you to be careless. The truth is that you deny the Day of Judgement and call it a lie.
- You do this while there are appointed angels watching over you
- Honourable angels, who are recording everything
- They know whatever you do.
- Truly, those who do good will be happy
- and the wicked will be in Hell,
- They will enter it on the Day of Judgement
- and they will have no escape from it.
- What will make you realize what Judgment Day is?
- Again, what will make you realize what Judgment Day is?
- It is the Day when no one will have power to do anything for another! And all matters, on that Day, will belong to Allah alone.
