Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ When the sky breaks apart 1 and when the stars are scattered; 2 When the oceans begin to flow, 3 And when the Graves are turned upside down;- 4 (Then) shall each soul know what it hath sent forward and (what it hath) kept back. 5 O man! What has made you careless concerning your Lord, the Most Generous? 6 who has created thee, and formed thee in accordance with what thou art meant' to be, and shaped thy nature in just proportions, 7 In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together. 8 By no means! Aye, ye belie the Requital. 9 Lo! there are above you guardians, 10 Honorable recorders, 11 who know all that you do: 12 Verily the pious shall be in Delight. 13 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; 14 They will burn in it on the Day of Judgement, 15 And they will not be able to keep away therefrom. 16 And what could make thee conceive what that Judgment Day will be? 17 Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is? 18 A day when no soul shall possess aught to succour another soul; that day the Command shall belong unto God. 19
