Surah “The Cleaving, The Cleaving Asunder, Bursting Apart”

as rendered by The Study Quran — 19 verses

When the sky is cleft asunder
and when the stars are dispersed
when the seas are burst forth
and when graves are turned inside out
then shall each soul know what it has sent forth and what it has left behind.
O mankind! What has deluded you with regard to your noble Lord
Who created you, then fashioned you, then proportioned you
assembling you in whatever form He willed
Nay! But you deny religion
And yet truly over you there are guardians
noble, writing
knowing what you do
Truly the pious shall be in bliss
and truly the profligate shall be in Hellfire
burning therein on the Day of Judgment
And they will not be absent from it
And what will apprise thee of the Day of Judgment
Then what will apprise thee of the Day of Judgment
A day when no soul will avail another soul in any way, and the Command that Day is with God
