IslamAwakened.com Qur'an Tafsir of Surah al-Inshiqaq - The Sundering, Splitting Open as rendered by
Yusuf Ali (Orig. 1938)
84:1
When the sky is rent asunder
84:2
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so);
84:3
And when the earth is flattened out
84:4
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty
84:5
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord,- and it must needs (do so);- (then will come Home the full reality)
84:6
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord- painfully toiling,- but thou shalt meet Him
84:7
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand
84:8
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning
84:9
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing
84:10
But he who is given his Record behind his back,
84:11
Soon will he cry for perdition
84:12
And he will enter a Blazing Fire
84:13
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing
84:14
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)
84:15
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him
84:16
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset
84:17
The Night and its Homing
84:18
And the Moon in her fullness
84:19
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage
84:20
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not?
84:21
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate
84:22
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it)
84:23
But God has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts
84:24
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous
84:25
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail
