Pickthall, Surah 84: The Splitting Open (Al-Inshiqaaq)

=> Surahs

[1] When the heaven is split asunder

[2] And attentive to her Lord in fear,

[3] And when the earth is spread out

[4] And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty

[5] And attentive to her Lord in fear!

[6] Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).

[7] Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

[8] He truly will receive an easy reckoning

[9] And will return unto his folk in joy.

[10] But whoso is given his account behind his back,

[11] He surely will invoke destruction

[12] And be thrown to scorching fire.

[13] He verily lived joyous with his folk,

[14] He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).

[15] Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!

[16] Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,

[17] And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

[18] And by the moon when she is at the full,

[19] That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

[20] What aileth them, then, that they believe not

[21] And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)?

[22] Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

[23] And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

[24] So give them tidings of a painful doom,

[25] Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
