Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the heaven splits open. 1 and when the stars are scattered, 2 the oceans are merged together, 3 and when graves are laid open, 4 then everyone will know what he has sent ahead, and what he has left behind. 5 O man! what hath beguiled thee concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful, 6 Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you? 7 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you. 8 No! But you deny the Recompense. 9 And yet, verily, there are ever-watchful forces over you, 10 noble, writers 11 They know all that you do. 12 Indeed the virtuous are in serenity. 13 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; 14 roasting in it on the Day of Recompense 15 And they shall by no means be absent from it. 16 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 17 Again, what shall make thee know whatsoever the Day of Requital 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
