When the heaven is rent asunder
and gives ear unto its Lord, and is dutiful
And when the earth is stretched out
and casts forth what is in it, and is empty
and gives ear unto its Lord, and is dutiful
O man! verily, thou are toiling after thy Lord, toiling; wherefore shalt thou meet Him
And as for him who is given his book in his right hand
he shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning
and he shall go back to his family joyfully
But as for him who is given his book behind his back
he shall call out for destruction
but he shall broil in a blaze
Verily, he was amongst his family joyful
Verily, he thought that he should never return to God
Yea, verily, his Lord on him did look
I need not swear by the evening glow
Or by the night, and what it drives together
Or by the moon when it is at its full
Ye shall be surely transferred from state to state
What ails them that they do not believe
and, when the Koran is read to them, do not adore
Nay, those who misbelieve do say it is a lie
but God knows best the (malice) that they hide
So give them the glad tidings of grievous woe
save those who believe and act aright, for them is hire that is not grudged
