Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ When the Sky is cleft asunder; 1 when the stars are scattered, 2 the oceans are merged together, 3 and the graves are turned inside out, 4 every soul will see the result of its deeds - those recorded before his death and those which will produce either virtue or evil after his death. 5 O MAN! What is it that lures thee away from thy bountiful Sustainer, 6 who created you, formed you and proportioned you? 7 He moulded you into whatever shape He willed. 8 No indeed; but you cry lies to the Doom; 9 Surely there are guardians over you, 10 Honorable recorders, 11 who know all that you do: 12 The pious will surely be in heaven, 13 And most surely the wicked are in burning fire, 14 They will burn in it on the Day of Judgement, 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? 17 Again, what shall make thee know whatsoever the Day of Requital is? 18 It will be a Day when no human being shall be of the least avail to any other human being, God [alone] will hold command on that Day. 19
