When the heaven developed cracks
and when the planets slipped hither and thither
and when the seas are burst forth (overriding their invisible barriers)
and when the graves are exhumed (of their contents)
(Afterwards, during Accountability) a Nafs came to know what she has sent forward (as her deeds) and what she left behind (as her traditions at the time she left the world)
O you the human! What has made you careless concerning your Most Generous Nourisher-Sustainer —
Who created you, then fashioned you in perfection, then He set you in due proportion
In whatever form, that He desired, He developed you in shape
Nay! Of course, you deny Accountability and Judgment
And certainly, over you, (are) indeed (set) guards and protectors
Kiraman Katibin (Honourable scribes)
They know whatever you do (and they immediately record your deeds)
Verily, Al-Abrar (will be) indeed in delights (of Paradise)
And verily, Al-Fujjar (will be) indeed in blazing Fire (of Hell)
they will reach therein on the Day of Judgment
and they (i.e., Al-Fujjar) will not be absent therefrom
And what did make you know what the Day of Judgment (is)
Once more! What did make you know what the Day of Judgment or Recompense is
The Day a Nafs does not own anything to favour or assist or redeem any Nafs. And the matter, that Day is solely with Allah
