Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ When the sky is cleft asunder; 1 And when the stars become dispersed, 2 And when the seas are made to flow forth, 3 And when the Graves are turned upside down;- 4 (Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds). 5 O man, what seduced you from your munificent Lord 6 who created you, fashioned you and proportioned you, 7 He moulded you into whatever shape He willed. 8 Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day, 9 you do so the while there are watchers over you; 10 Kind and honourable,- Writing down (your deeds): 11 They know whatsoever ye do. 12 the virtuous will dwell in bliss, 13 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; 14 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment, 15 And never therefrom will they be absent. 16 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 17 Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 18 It is the day when no soul will have power to do the least for a soul, and God's alone will be done. 19
