When the heaven is cleft asunder
And when the stars are scattered
And when the seas gush together
And when the tombs are turned upside down
The soul shall know what it has sent on or kept back
O man! what has seduced thee concerning thy generous Lord
who created thee, and fashioned thee, and gave thee symmetry
and in what form He pleased composed thee
Nay, but ye call the judgment a lie
but over you are guardians set,
noble, writing down
they know what ye do
Verily, the righteous are in pleasure
and, verily, the wicked are in hell
they shall broil therein upon the judgment day
nor shall they be absent therefrom
And what shall make thee know what is the judgment day
Again, what shall make thee know what is the judgment day
a day when no soul shall control aught for another; and the bidding on that day belongs to God
