| | Rashad Khalifa rendition of Surah The Sundering, Splitting Open(al-Inshiqaq) --- |
---|
84:1 | | The time will come when the sky is ruptured |
84:2 | | It will submit to its Lord and expire |
84:3 | | The earth will be leveled |
84:4 | | It will eject its contents, as it erupts |
84:5 | | It will submit to its Lord and expire |
84:6 | | O humans, you are irreversibly heading for a meeting with your Lord |
84:7 | | As for the one who receives his record in his right hand |
84:8 | | His reckoning will be easy |
84:9 | | He will return to his people joyfully |
84:10 | | As for the one who receives his record behind his back |
84:11 | | He will be ridden with remorse |
84:12 | | And will burn in Hell |
84:13 | | He used to act arrogantly among his people |
84:14 | | He thought that he will never be called to account |
84:15 | | Yes indeed, his Lord was Seer of him |
84:16 | | I solemnly swear by the rosy dusk |
84:17 | | And the night as it spreads |
84:18 | | And the moon and its phases |
84:19 | | You will move from stage to stag |
84:20 | | Why do they not believe |
84:21 | | And when the Quran is recited to them, they do not fall prostrate |
84:22 | | This is because those who disbelieved are rejecting (the Quran) |
84:23 | | GOD is fully aware of their innermost thoughts |
84:24 | | Promise them painful retribution |
84:25 | | As for those who believed and led a righteous life, they receive a recompense that is well-deserved |
