Surat AL Inshiqaq/Surat Al Burooj

In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful

1. When the Sky is rent asunder

2. And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord and it must needs
(do so)

3. And when the Earth is flattened out

4. And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty

5. And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord and it must needs
(do so) then will come Home the full Reality

6. O thou man! verily thou art ever toiling on towards the Lord
painfully toiling but thou shalt meet Him

7. Then he who is given his Record in his Right hand

8. Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning

9. And he will turn to his people rejoicing!

10. But he who is given his Record behind his back

11. Soon will he cry for Perdition

12. And he will enter a Blazing Fire

13. Truly did he go about among his people rejoicing!

14. Truly did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!

15. Nay nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!

16. So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;

17. The Night and its Homing

18. And the Moon in her Fullness

19. Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage

20. What then is the matter with them that they believe not?

21. And when the Qur'an is read to them they fall not prostrate

22. But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it)

23. But Allah has full Knowledge of what they secrete (in their
breasts)

24. So announce to them a Penalty Grievous

25. Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: for
them is a Reward that will never fail

In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful

1. By the Sky (displaying) the Zodiacal Signs;

2. By the promised Day (of Judgment);

3. By one that witnesses and the subject of the witness

4. Woe to the makers of the pit (of Fire)

5. Fire supplied (abundantly) with Fuel:

6. Behold! they sat over against the (fire)

7. And they witnessed (all) that they were doing against the
Believers

8. And they ill-treated them for no other reason than that they
believed in Allah Exalted in Power worthy of all Praise!

9. Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth!
and Allah is Witness to all things

10. Those who persecute (or draw into temptation) the Believers
men and women and do not turn in repentance will have the Penalty
of Hell: they will have the Penalty of the Burning Fire

11. For those who believe and do righteous deeds will be Gardens
Beneath which Rivers flow: that is the great Salvation (the
fulfillment of all desires).

12. Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord

13. It is He Who creates from the very beginning and He can
restore (life)

14. And He is the Oft-Forgiving Full of loving-kindness

15. Lord of the Throne of Glory

16. Doer (without let) of all that He intends

17. Has the story reached thee of the Forces

18. Of Pharaoh and the Thamud?

19. And yet the Unbelievers (persist) in rejecting (the Truth)!

20. But Allah doth encompass them from behind!

21. Nay this is a Glorious Qur'an

22. (Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved!
