| | Ali Ünal rendition of Surah The Sundering, Splitting Open(al-Inshiqaq) --- |
---|
84:1 | | When the heaven is split asunder |
84:2 | | Obeying its Lord, as in truth it is expected to do so and always does |
84:3 | | And when the earth is flattened out |
84:4 | | And casts forth whatever is in it and becomes empty |
84:5 | | Obeying its Lord, as in truth it is expected to do so and always does |
84:6 | | O human! You are ever toiling toward your Lord in a labor to be re-encountered (before His judgment) |
84:7 | | Then, as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand |
84:8 | | Surely he will be reckoned with by an easy reckoning |
84:9 | | And will return in joy to his household (prepared for him in Paradise) |
84:10 | | But as for him who will be given his Record (in his left hand) from behind his back |
84:11 | | He will surely pray for destruction |
84:12 | | And enter the Flame to roast |
84:13 | | For indeed he used to be in joyous conceit among his household (in his earthly life) |
84:14 | | He thought that he would never return (to God for judgment) |
84:15 | | No indeed! Rather, his Lord was ever seeing him |
84:16 | | So I swear by the afterglow of sunset |
84:17 | | And the night, and all that it enshrouds (by degrees) |
84:18 | | And the moon, as it grows full |
84:19 | | You will most certainly move on from one state to another (congruous with it) |
84:20 | | What, then, is the matter with them that they do not believe |
84:21 | | And when the Qur’an is recited to them, they do not prostrate in submission (to its Message) |
84:22 | | Rather: those who disbelieve deny (it and its Message) |
84:23 | | And God has full knowledge of what they harbor (in their hearts) |
84:24 | | So give them the glad tidings of a painful punishment |
84:25 | | Except for those who believe and do good, righteous deeds: for them there is a reward constant and beyond measure |
