[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 thy 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.
