The Splitting (Al-Inshiqaaq)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ When the heaven is split asunder, 1 and obeys its Lord as it must, 2 And when the earth is spread out. 3 And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it] 4 obeying its Lord, as it must do! 5 Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence). 6 he who is given his record in his right hand 7 He surely will receive an easy reckoning, 8 and shall return to his people joyfully. 9 And whoever is given his record of deeds behind his back – 10 he shall call for destruction 11 and will enter the Blazing Fire. 12 He once lived among his family joyfully; 13 Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)! 14 Surely yes, why not? Indeed his Lord is seeing him. 15 But nay! I swear by the sunset redness, 16 And by the night and that which it driveth together, 17 And by the moon when she becometh full. 18 That you shall most certainly enter one state after another. 19 What then is the matter with them, that they believe not?- 20 and when the Koran is recited to them they do not bow? ۩ 21 But those who have disbelieved deny, 22 But God knows what they harbour in their breasts. 23 Wherefore announce thou unto them a torment afflictive. 24 Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off. 25
