| 81:1 | | When the sun be folded up and so darkened |
| 81:2 | | And when the stars are obscured |
| 81:3 | | And when the mountains are made to pass away |
| 81:4 | | And when the excellent she-camels will be discarded |
| 81:5 | | And when the wild beast will be herded together |
| 81:6 | | And when the rivers will be drained away |
| 81:7 | | And when (various) people will be united together |
| 81:8 | | And when the girl-child who is buried alive will be questioned about |
| 81:9 | | For what offence was she killed |
| 81:10 | | And when books and papers will be spread abroad |
| 81:11 | | And when the heights will be discovered |
| 81:12 | | And when the Hell-Fire will be set ablaze |
| 81:13 | | And when the Paradise will be brought near |
| 81:14 | | Every soul will know then what (store of deeds) it has brought forward |
| 81:15 | | Nay, I call to witness those (planets) that recede while advancing in one direction |
| 81:16 | | Those (planets) that continue their forward course (along their orbits) and then disappear |
| 81:17 | | And (I call to witness) the night when its darkness begins to depart |
| 81:18 | | And the dawn as it begins to breathe (and brightens up) |
| 81:19 | | That verily this (Qur'an) is indeed the word (revealed to and) uttered by a noble (and illustrious) Messenger (- Muhammad) |
| 81:20 | | Possessor of power, occupying a (glorious) secure position with the Lord of the Throne |
| 81:21 | | Who is entitled to be obeyed and who is here also known as trust-worthy |
| 81:22 | | And that this compatriot of yours (-Muhammad) is not at all mad |
| 81:23 | | And he has most surely seen himself (shining in the resplendence of his own light) in the clear horizon (- in the remotest corners of the world) |
| 81:24 | | And he is not at all niggardly, nor a forgerer in disclosing the hidden realties |
| 81:25 | | Nor is this (Qur'an) the word of satan who is driven away (from divine presence) |
| 81:26 | | Where do you wander to (leaving this Qur'an and the Messenger aside) |
| 81:27 | | This is but a means to rise to eminence for all people |
| 81:28 | | For such of you who wish to walk straight (to attain eminence) |
| 81:29 | | And you should not desire (otherwise) except that which Allah the Lord of the worlds desires (for you) |
