Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the sky breaks apart 1 When the Stars are scattered; 2 And when the seas are flowed out, 3 And the sepulchres are overturned, 4 Each soul will know what it had sent ahead and what it had left behind. 5 O MAN! What is it that lures thee away from thy bountiful Sustainer, 6 who has created thee, and formed thee in accordance with what thou art meant' to be, and shaped thy nature in just proportions, 7 In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together. 8 By no means! Aye, ye belie the Requital. 9 And indeed there are some guardians over you. 10 Illustrious scribes 11 who know whatever you do. 12 Indeed the virtuous are in serenity. 13 and the wicked shall be in the Blazing Fire. 14 which they will enter on the Day of Judgment 15 nor shall they ever be absent from it. 16 What could let you know what the Day of Recompense is! 17 How then can you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is? 18 A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's. 19
