| | Ahmed Hulusi rendition of Surah The Sundering, Splitting Open(al-Inshiqaq)
--- |
|---|
| 84:1 | | When the heaven is split open, |
| 84:2 | | And attends to its Rabb in submission – which is the Truth! |
| 84:3 | | And when the earth is extended and spread out, |
| 84:4 | | And it throws out what is within it and empties itself, |
| 84:5 | | And attends to its Rabb in submission! |
| 84:6 | | O man! Indeed, you are striving towards your Rabb! You will reach Him in the end! |
| 84:7 | | Whoever is given his record, formed on his right side, |
| 84:8 | | Will be called to an easy account, |
| 84:9 | | And will transform into the composition of the people of Paradise! |
| 84:10 | | But he who is given his book from behind, |
| 84:11 | | Will call out, “Death be my savior!” |
| 84:12 | | And will be subject to the (blazing) Fire! |
| 84:13 | | Indeed, he used to rejoice among his like... |
| 84:14 | | He thought he would never return (to his Rabb). |
| 84:15 | | But no! Indeed, his Rabb was Basir within him! |
| 84:16 | | I swear by the twilight, |
| 84:17 | | And by the night and what it carries, |
| 84:18 | | And by the full moon, |
| 84:19 | | That you will certainly change dimensions and transform into bodies befitting those dimensions! |
| 84:20 | | So, this being the case, what is the matter with them that they do not believe? |
| 84:21 | | And when the Quran is recited to them, they do not prostrate (remove their ego-identities and submit themselves to the Reality)? (This is a verse of prostration.) |
| 84:22 | | And those who deny the knowledge of the reality further deny! |
| 84:23 | | But Allah knows better what they collect and keep within themselves (their thoughts and beliefs). |
| 84:24 | | So, give them the news of their severe suffering! |
| 84:25 | | Except for those who believe and fulfill the requisites of faith! For them there is uninterrupted reward. |
