Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ When the heaven splits open. 1 And the stars dispersed, 2 and when the seas burst beyond their bounds, 3 And when the graves are ransacked, 4 Each soul shall know that which it sent afore and that which it left behind. 5 O human! What has deceived you concerning your Generous Lord 6 Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion; 7 In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together. 8 Nay! But ye do reject Right and Judgment! 9 Yet over you there are watchers, 10 noble scribes 11 They know whatever you do. 12 The pious will surely be in heaven, 13 The wicked certainly in Hell: 14 They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense, 15 and from it they shall never be absent. 16 And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is? 17 Again, what shall make thee know whatsoever the Day of Requital is? 18 A day when no soul shall possess aught to succour another soul; that day the Command shall belong unto God. 19
