Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ When the heaven shall be cleft, 1 the stars are dispersed, 2 When the seas are poured forth, 3 And when the [contents of] graves are scattered, 4 the soul shall know what it has done, the former and the latter. 5 O man! what hath beguiled thee concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful, 6 Who created you proportionately and fashioned you 7 in whatever form He pleased? 8 By no means! Aye, ye belie the Requital. 9 but you should know that there are angelic guards 10 Kiraman (honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds). 11 Who know (all) that ye do. 12 Indeed the virtuous are in serenity. 13 The wicked certainly in Hell: 14 which they shall enter on the Day of Judgement, 15 And will not be absent thence. 16 And what shall make thee know whatsoever the Day of Requital is? 17 How then can you comprehend what the Day of Judgement 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
