Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ When the sky breaks apart 1 when the stars are scattered, 2 And when the seas are erupted 3 when the graves are overturned, 4 then a soul shall know its works, the former and the latter. 5 O Man! What deceived thee as to thy generous Lord 6 Who created you, shaped you, and made you well-proportioned, 7 He moulded you into whatever shape He willed. 8 No! But you deny the Recompense. 9 And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers, 10 Illustrious scribes 11 They know what you do. 12 Surely the virtuous shall be in Bliss, 13 whereas the wicked will be in Hell; 14 which they will enter on the Day of Judgment 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 And what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is? 17 Again: what will make you realize what the Day of Judgement will be? 18 It is the day when no soul will have power to do the least for a soul, and God's alone will be done. 19
