When the heaven will be cloven
And will listen (submissively) to its Lord- and it will be truly bound to (do so)
And when the earth will be widely extended
And will cast forth what is in it and will void itself
And will listen (submissively) to its Lord- and it will be truly bound to (do so)
O you man, surely you are exerting yourself to your Lord with great exertion, then you will be meeting Him
So, as for him who is brought his Book in his right (hand)
Then he will eventually be reckoned an easy reckoning
And he will turn over (Ingalaba: Literally: turn over) to his family pleased
And as for him who is brought his Book beyond his back
Then he will call for detriment
And he will roast at a Blaze
Surely he (once lived) among his family, pleasured
Surely he surmised he would never recede (Or: return)
Yes indeed, his Lord has been Ever-Beholding (of) him
Yet no! I swear by the twilight
And the night and whatever load it has
And the moon when it grows full
Indeed you will definitely ride state after state (i.e., travel from one stage "of life" to another)
For what reason then do they not believe
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they do not prostrate themselves?
No indeed, (but) the ones who have disbelieved are crying lies
And Allah knows best whatever they heedfully harbor (in their breasts)
So give them tidings of a painful torment
Except the ones who have believed and done deeds of righteousness- they will have a reward bountifully unfailing
