Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
۞ When the heaven splits open. 1 when the stars are scattered, 2 when the seas swarm over, 3 when the tombs are overthrown, 4 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back. 5 O MAN! What is it that lures thee away from thy bountiful Sustainer, 6 Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical? 7 Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you. 8 Not at all – but rather you deny the establishment of Justice. 9 And indeed there are some guardians over you. 10 noble scribes 11 They know all that you do. 12 Indeed, the righteous shall (live) in bliss. 13 And indeed the sinners are in hell. 14 They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense, 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 17 Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is? 18 It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah. 19
