أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed one
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
1
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ ﴿1﴾
84:1
When the sky bursts open,
2
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ﴿2﴾
84:2
obeying its Lord as it must,
3
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ ﴿3﴾
84:3
and when the earth is flattened out,
4
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ ﴿4﴾
84:4
and ejects ˹all˺ its contents1 and becomes empty,
5
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ﴿5﴾
84:5
obeying its Lord as it must, ˹surely you will all be judged˺.
6
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًۭا فَمُلَـٰقِيهِ ﴿6﴾
84:6
O humanity! Indeed, you are labouring restlessly towards your Lord, and will ˹eventually˺ meet the consequences.
7
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ ﴿7﴾
84:7
As for those who are given their record in their right hand,
8
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًۭا يَسِيرًۭا ﴿8﴾
84:8
they will have an easy reckoning,
9
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًۭا ﴿9﴾
84:9
and will return to their people joyfully.
10
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ ﴿10﴾
84:10
And as for those who are given their record ˹in their left hand˺ from behind their backs,
11
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًۭا ﴿11﴾
84:11
they will cry for ˹instant˺ destruction,
12
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا ﴿12﴾
84:12
and will burn in the blazing Fire.
13
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا ﴿13﴾
84:13
For they used to be prideful among their people,
14
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ ﴿14﴾
84:14
thinking they would never return ˹to Allah˺.
15
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًۭا ﴿15﴾
84:15
Yes ˹they would˺! Surely their Lord has always been All-Seeing of them.
16
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ ﴿16﴾
84:16
So, I do swear by the twilight!
17
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ ﴿17﴾
84:17
And by the night and whatever it envelops!
18
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ ﴿18﴾
84:18
And by the moon when it waxes full!
19
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍۢ ﴿19﴾
84:19
You will certainly pass from one state to another.1
20
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿20﴾
84:20
So what is the matter with them that they do not believe,
21
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ ﴿21﴾
84:21
and when the Quran is recited to them, they do not bow down ˹in submission˺?1
22
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ ﴿22﴾
84:22
In fact, the disbelievers persist in denial.
23
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ ﴿23﴾
84:23
But Allah knows best whatever they hide.
24
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ﴿24﴾
84:24
So give them good news of a painful punishment.
25
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ ﴿25﴾
84:25
But those who believe and do good will have a never-ending reward.
