Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the heaven shall be cleft, 1 And when the stars have fallen and scattered; 2 And when the seas are made to flow forth, 3 and when the graves are laid open: 4 then a soul shall know its works, the former and the latter. 5 O man! what hath beguiled thee concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful, 6 Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion; 7 In whatever form He willed, He put you together. 8 No indeed; but you cry lies to the Doom; 9 Surely, there are guardians watching over you, 10 watching over you 11 and these honorable scribes know whatever you do. 12 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure, 13 and the evil-doers will be in hell 14 [a fire] which they shall enter on Judgment Day, 15 and from it they shall never be absent. 16 What do you know what the Day of Recompense is? 17 How then can you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is? 18 A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's. 19
