| | Shakir rendition of Surah The Sundering, Splitting Open(al-Inshiqaq)
--- |
|---|
| 84:1 | | When the heaven bursts asunder |
| 84:2 | | And obeys its Lord and it must |
| 84:3 | | And when the earth is stretched |
| 84:4 | | And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty |
| 84:5 | | And obeys its Lord and it must |
| 84:6 | | O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him |
| 84:7 | | Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand |
| 84:8 | | He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning |
| 84:9 | | And he shall go back to his people joyful |
| 84:10 | | And as to him who is given his book behind his back |
| 84:11 | | He shall call for perdition |
| 84:12 | | And enter into burning fire |
| 84:13 | | Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers |
| 84:14 | | Surely he thought that he would never return |
| 84:15 | | Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him |
| 84:16 | | But nay! I swear by the sunset redness |
| 84:17 | | And the night and that which it drives on |
| 84:18 | | And the moon when it grows full |
| 84:19 | | That you shall most certainly enter one state after another |
| 84:20 | | But what is the matter with them that they do not believe |
| 84:21 | | And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance |
| 84:22 | | Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth |
| 84:23 | | And Allah knows best what they hide |
| 84:24 | | So announce to them a painful punishment |
| 84:25 | | Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off |
