Surah “The Cleaving, The Cleaving Asunder, Bursting Apart”

as rendered by Musharraf Hussain — 19 verses

When the sky is cleaved,
when the stars are scattered,
when the oceans surge and merge,
when the graves are turned inside out –
that Day, every person will know what it did and what it failed to do.
People, what deceived you from your generous Lord?
He created you, assigned you a provision, and perfected you
with a beautifully-shaped physical appearance as He pleased.
Yet, you still deny the Judgement.
The guardians standing over you are
the noble scribes,
who know what you do
The righteous will enjoy the delights of Paradise,
and the wicked will be damned in Hell.
They will enter in it on Judgement Day,
and they won’t ever be able to leave.
What can explain to you the reality of the Day of Judgement?
Again, what can explain to you the reality of Judgement Day?
The Day when no one will be able to do anything for another person; only Allah’s command will prevail that Day
