Al-Infitâr

(1)When the heaven is cleft asunder.

(2)And when the stars have fallen and scattered;

(3)And when the seas are burst forth (got dried up);

(4)And when the graves are turned upside down (and they bring out their contents)

(5)(Then) a person will know what he has sent forward and (what he has) left behind (of good or bad deeds).

(6)O man! What has made you careless concerning your Lord, the Most Generous?

(7)Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion;

(8)In whatever form He willed, He put you together.

(9)Nay! But you deny the Recompense (reward for good deeds and punishment for evil deeds).

(10)But verily, over you (are appointed angels in charge of mankind) to watch you[] ,

(11)Kirâman (honourable) Kâtibîn writing down (your deeds)[] ,

(12)They know all that you do.

(13)Verily, the Abrâr (pious and righteous) will be in delight (Paradise);

(14)And verily, the Fujjâr (the wicked, disbelievers, sinners and evil-doers) will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),

(15)In which they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,

(16)And they (Al-Fujjâr) will not be absent therefrom (i.e. will not go out from the Hell).

(17)And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?

(18)Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?

(19)(It will be) the Day when no person shall have power (to do) anything for another, and the Decision, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allâh.

At-Takwîr

(1)When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown[] ).

(2)And when the stars shall fall;

(3)And when the mountains shall made to pass away;

(4)And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected;

(5)And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together;

(6)And when the seas shall become as blazing Fire or shall overflow;

(7)And when the souls shall be joined with their bodies;

(8)And when the female (infant) buried alive (as the pagan Arabs used to do) shall be questioned.[]

(9)For what sin she was killed?

(10)And when the written pages of deeds (good and bad) of every person shall be laid open;

(11)And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place;

(12)And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze.

(13)And when Paradise shall be brought near,

(14)(Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil).

(15)So verily, I swear by the planets that recede (i.e. disappear during the day and appear during the night).

(16)And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves,

(17)And by the night as it departs;

(18)And by the dawn as it brightens;

(19)Verily, this is the Word (this Qur'ân brought by) a most honourable messenger [Jibrael (Gabriel), from Allâh to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)].

(20)Owner of power, and high rank with (Allâh) the Lord of the Throne,

(21)Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens).

(22)And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman;

(23)And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east).

(24)And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen.

(25)And it (the Qur'ân) is not the word of the outcast Shaitân (Satan).

(26)Then where are you going?

(27)Verily, this (the Qur'ân) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns)[] .

(28)To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight,

(29)And you will not, unless (it be) that Allâh wills, the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
