[1] When the heaven is split asunder
[2] And attentive to her Lord in fear,
[3] And when the earth is spread out
[4] And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
[5] And attentive to her Lord in fear!
[6] Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).
[7] Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
[8] He truly will receive an easy reckoning
[9] And will return unto his folk in joy.
[10] But whoso is given his account behind his back,
[11] He surely will invoke destruction
[12] And be thrown to scorching fire.
[13] He verily lived joyous with his folk,
[14] He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
[15] Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
[16] Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
[17] And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
[18] And by the moon when she is at the full,
[19] That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
[20] What aileth them, then, that they believe not
[21] And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)?
[22] Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
[23] And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
[24] So give them tidings of a painful doom,
[25] Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
