Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
۞ When the heaven is cleft asunder, 1 And when the stars shall be scattered, 2 And when the seas are made to flow forth, 3 and when graves are laid open, 4 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back. 5 O Man! What deceived thee as to thy generous Lord 6 Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you? 7 Shaping you into any form He pleased? 8 Despite this, you deny the Day of Judgment, 9 Surely there are guardians over you, 10 noble recorders, 11 aware of whatever you do! 12 Surely the virtuous shall be in Bliss, 13 and the evil-doers will be in hell 14 roasting in it on the Day of Recompense 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is? 17 Again, what do you know – of what sort is the Day of Justice! 18 (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power (to do) anything for another, and the Decision, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah. 19
