Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ When the sky is cleft asunder; 1 When the Stars are scattered; 2 and when the seas burst beyond their bounds, 3 and the graves are turned inside out, 4 A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back. 5 O man! What has deceived you away from your Lord, the Most Beneficent? 6 Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion; 7 having put thee together in whatever form He willed [thee to have]? 8 No indeed; but you cry lies to the Doom; 9 And yet, verily, there are ever-watchful forces over you, 10 Kiraman (honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds). 11 who know of all that you do. 12 Indeed, the righteous shall (live) in bliss. 13 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; 14 Which they will enter on the Day of Judgment, 15 and then shall never come out of it. 16 What do you know what the Day of Recompense is? 17 Again, what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is? 18 It is the Day when no one shall have the power to do anything for another, and all command shall be Allah's. 19
