Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the sky is cleft asunder; 1 the stars are dispersed, 2 When the seas are poured forth, 3 And the sepulchres are overturned, 4 A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind. 5 O man, what seduced you from your munificent Lord 6 who created you, formed you and proportioned you? 7 and composed thee after what form He would? 8 Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day, 9 you do so the while there are watchers over you; 10 noble, recording, 11 who know all that you do: 12 Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight. 13 And the Wicked - they will be in the Fire, 14 Roasted they shall be therein on the Day of Requital. 15 And thence they shall not be allowed to be absent. 16 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 17 Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is? 18 The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's. 19
