Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
۞ When the heaven is cleft asunder. 1 And when the stars become dispersed, 2 when the oceans are gushed forth, 3 And when the graves are ransacked, 4 then everyone will know what he has sent ahead, and what he has left behind. 5 O man! What is it that lures you away from your bountiful Sustainer, 6 who created thee and shaped thee and wrought thee in symmetry 7 and set you in whatever form He pleased? 8 Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day, 9 Lo! there are above you guardians, 10 Illustrious scribes 11 They know whatsoever ye do. 12 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure, 13 And most surely the wicked are in burning fire, 14 They will burn in it on the Day of Judgement, 15 to burn therein. 16 What do you know what the Day of Recompense is? 17 Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense? 18 (It will be) the Day when no soul shall have power (to do) aught for another: For the command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah. 19
