Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ When the sky is cleft asunder; 1 And when the stars shall be scattered, 2 and when the seas burst beyond their bounds, 3 And the sepulchres are overturned, 4 Each soul shall know that which it sent afore and that which it left behind. 5 O Man! What deceived thee as to thy generous Lord 6 Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee? 7 Shaping you into any form He pleased? 8 By no means! Aye, ye belie the Requital. 9 you do so the while there are watchers over you; 10 noble scribes 11 and these honorable scribes know whatever you do. 12 Verily the pious shall be in Delight. 13 And the Wicked - they will be in the Fire, 14 They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense, 15 And will not be absent thence. 16 And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense? 17 Again, what do you know – of what sort is the Day of Justice! 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
