When the sky is split apar
And obeys the command of its Lord, and it must do so
And when the earth is flattened out
And spills over what is within it and becomes empty
And obeys the command of its Lord, and it must do so
O you man! You are surely always moving towards your Lord painfully moving but you shall meet Him
Then he who is given his record (of deeds) in his right hand
Soon his account will be taken by an easy settlemen
And he will be together with his people, happy
But he who is given his record behind his back
Soon will he cry for his lost soul
And, he will enter a blazing Fire
Truly, (on this earth) did he go about among his people, happy
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)
But, for sure! His Lord was (always) watchful of him
So, I swear by the deep (red) glow of sunset
The night and its gathering (of nightly creatures)
And the moon in her fullness
You shall surely travel from one stage to the next (life to Hereafter)
What then, is the matter with them that they do not believe
And when the Quran is read to them, they do not fall prostrate
But being the opposite the unbelievers reject (Islam and the Message)
But Allah has full knowledge of what they do and think
So announce to them a painful penalty
Except to those who believe and work righteous good deeds: For them is a reward that will never be the end
