Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the heaven splits open. 1 And when the stars become dispersed, 2 When the seas are poured forth, 3 And the sepulchres are overturned, 4 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back. 5 O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one, 6 who created you, fashioned you and proportioned you, 7 in whatever form He pleased? 8 Despite this, you deny the Day of Judgment, 9 you do so the while there are watchers over you; 10 Kiraman (honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds). 11 Who know (all) that ye do. 12 The pious will surely be in heaven, 13 And most surely the wicked are in burning fire, 14 They shall enter it on the day of judgment. 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Doom? 17 Again, what do you know – of what sort is the Day of Justice! 18 The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's. 19
