Al-Inshiqaq (الإنشقاق)
Surah 84 • 26 Verses • Arabic, English & Kiswahili
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
﴿١﴾
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انشَقَّتْ
﴿٢﴾
When the sky breaks apart
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
﴿٣﴾
And has listened to its Lord and was obligated [to do so],
وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
﴿٤﴾
And when the earth has been extended
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
﴿٥﴾
And has cast out that within it and relinquished it,
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
﴿٦﴾
And has listened to its Lord and was obligated [to do so],
يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ
﴿٧﴾
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with great exertion and will meet Him.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ
﴿٨﴾
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
﴿٩﴾
He will be judged with an easy account
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا
﴿١٠﴾
And return to his people in happiness.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ
﴿١١﴾
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا
﴿١٢﴾
He will cry out for destruction,
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
﴿١٣﴾
And will enter to burn in a Blaze.
إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا
﴿١٤﴾
Indeed, he had once been among his people in happiness,
إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
﴿١٥﴾
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
بَلَىٰ إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا
﴿١٦﴾
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ
﴿١٧﴾
So I swear by the twilight glow
وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
﴿١٨﴾
And by the night and what it envelops,
وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ
﴿١٩﴾
And by the moon when it becomes full,
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
﴿٢٠﴾
That you will surely experience state after state.
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
﴿٢١﴾
So what is [the matter] with them that they do not believe?
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
﴿٢٢﴾
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُكَذِّبُونَ
﴿٢٣﴾
But those who have disbelieved deny,
وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
﴿٢٤﴾
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
﴿٢٥﴾
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ
﴿٢٦﴾
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
