The Sundering, Splitting Open — Faridul Haque Translation – Parallel Quran

1 The Bursting Asunder

إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انشَقَّتْ

When the heaven breaks apart

Itha alssamao inshaqqat

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And it listens to the command of its Lord - and that befits it

Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ

And when the earth is spread out

Wa-itha al-ardu muddat

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ

And it unburdens itself of all that is in it, and becomes empty

Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

And it listens to the command of its Lord - and that befits it

Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ

O man, indeed you have to surely run towards your Lord, and to meet him

Ya ayyuha al-insanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ

So whoever is given his record of deeds in his right hand

Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا

Soon an easy account will be taken from him

Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا

And he will return to his family rejoicing

Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ

And whoever is given his record of deeds behind his back

Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا

Soon he will pray for death

Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

And will go into the blazing fire

Wayasla saAAeeran

إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا

Indeed he used to rejoice in his home

Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran

إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

He assumed that he does not have to return

Innahu thanna an lan yahoora

بَلَىٰ إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا

Surely yes, why not? Indeed his Lord is seeing him

Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran

فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ

So by oath of the late evening’s light

Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi

وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

And by oath of the night and all that gathers in it

Waallayli wama wasaqa

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ

And by oath of the moon when it is full

Waalqamari itha ittasaqa

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ

You will surely go up level by level

Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

What is the matter with them that they do not accept faith

Fama lahum la yu/minoona

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ

And when the Qur’an is recited to them, they do not fall prostrate? (Command of Prostration # 13

Wa-itha quri-a AAalayhimu alqur-anu la yasjudoona

بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُكَذِّبُونَ

In fact the disbelievers keep denying

Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona

وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

And Allah well knows what they conceal in their hearts

WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

Therefore give them the glad tidings of a painful punishment

Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin

إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ

Except those who believed and did good deeds - for them is a reward that will never end

Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
