Al-Inshiqaq (الإنشقاق): full text and translation
A translation is its translator's understanding of the Quran, not the Quran itself. Our method
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ ﴿١﴾
84:1 When the Sky is Rent asunder,
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ﴿٢﴾
84:2 And hearkens to (The Command of) its Lord,— And it must needs (Do so);—
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ ﴿٣﴾
84:3 And when the Earth Is flattened out,
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ ﴿٤﴾
84:4 And casts forth What is within it And becomes (clean) empty,
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ﴿٥﴾
84:5 And hearkens to (The Command of) its Lord,— And it must needs (Do so);—(then will come Home the full Reality)
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَـٰقِيهِ ﴿٦﴾
84:6 O thou man! Verily thou art ever Toiling on towards thy Lord— Painfully toiling,—but thou Shalt meet Him.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ ﴿٧﴾
84:7 Then he who is given His Record in his Right hand,
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا ﴿٨﴾
84:8 Soon will his account Be taken by an easy reckoning,
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا ﴿٩﴾
84:9 And he will turn To his people, rejoicing!
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ ﴿١٠﴾
84:10 But he who is given His Record behind his back,—
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا ﴿١١﴾
84:11 Soon will he cry For Perdition,
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا ﴿١٢﴾
84:12 And he will enter A Blazing Fire.
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا ﴿١٣﴾
84:13 Truly, did he go about Among his people, rejoicing!
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ ﴿١٤﴾
84:14 Truly, did he think That he would not Have to return (to Us)!
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا ﴿١٥﴾
84:15 Nay, nay! for his Lord Was (ever) watchful of him!
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ ﴿١٦﴾
84:16 So I do call To witness the ruddy glow Of Sunset;
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ ﴿١٧﴾
84:17 The Night and its Homing;
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ ﴿١٨﴾
84:18 And the Moon In her Fulness:
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ ﴿١٩﴾
84:19 Ye shall surely travel From stage to stage
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿٢٠﴾
84:20 What then is the matter With them, that they Believe not?—
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ ﴿٢١﴾
84:21 And when the Qur-ān Is read to them, they Fall not prostrate,
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿٢٢﴾
84:22 But on the contrary The Unbelievers reject (it).
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ ﴿٢٣﴾
84:23 But God has full Knowledge Of what they secrete (In their breasts).
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ﴿٢٤﴾
84:24 So announce to them A Penalty Grievous,
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ ﴿٢٥﴾
84:25 Except to those who believe And work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward That will never fail.
