Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ When the heaven is cleft asunder, 1 And when the stars shall be scattered, 2 When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth; 3 And when the graves are ransacked, 4 the soul shall know what it has done, the former and the latter. 5 O man! What has made you careless concerning your Lord, the Most Generous? 6 The One Who created you, then moulded you, then made you proper? 7 In whatever form He willed, He put you together. 8 Even then you deny the Judgement. 9 yet there are over you watchers 10 noble, writers 11 They know all that you do. 12 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure, 13 The wicked certainly in Hell: 14 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment, 15 And will not be able to hide from it. 16 And what do you know – of what sort is the Day of Justice! 17 Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense? 18 A day when no soul shall possess aught to succour another soul; that day the Command shall belong unto God. 19
