Shattering (Al-Infitaar)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
۞ WHEN THE SKY is cleft asunder, 1 And when the stars fall down. 2 when the oceans are gushed forth, 3 And when the graves are overturned. 4 Each soul will know what it had sent ahead and what it had left behind. 5 O Man! What deceived thee as to thy generous Lord 6 who created you, formed you and proportioned you? 7 In whatever form He willed has He assembled you. 8 By no means! Aye, ye belie the Requital. 9 Surely there are guardians over you, 10 noble recorders, 11 Who know what you do. 12 the virtuous will dwell in bliss, 13 and the wicked shall be in the Blazing Fire. 14 Which they will enter on the Day of Judgment, 15 And thence they shall not be allowed to be absent. 16 And what do you know – of what sort is the Day of Justice! 17 Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 18 It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah. 19
