1 The Bursting Asunder

إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انشَقَّتْ

Musharraf Hussain

When the sky splits open,

Itha alssamao inshaqqat

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

Musharraf Hussain

duly obeying its Lord;

Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ

Musharraf Hussain

when the Earth is flattened

Wa-itha al-ardu muddat

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ

Musharraf Hussain

and throws out its contents and becomes empty,

Waalqat ma feeha watakhallat

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

Musharraf Hussain

duly obeying its Lord.

Waathinat lirabbiha wahuqqat

يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ

Musharraf Hussain

People, you strive and struggle gradually moving towards your Lord; finally you’ll meet Him!

Ya ayyuha al-insanu innaka kadihun ila rabbika kadhan famulaqeehi

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ

Musharraf Hussain

So anyone given the written record in his right hand

Faama man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا

Musharraf Hussain

will have an easy reckoning,

Fasawfa yuhasabu hisaban yaseeran

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا

Musharraf Hussain

and will return happily to his family.

Wayanqalibu ila ahlihi masrooran

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ

Musharraf Hussain

But anyone who is given the written record from behind his back

Waamma man ootiya kitabahu waraa thahrihi

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا

Musharraf Hussain

will cry out for death,

Fasawfa yadAAoo thubooran

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

Musharraf Hussain

and will go in the Blazing Fire.

Wayasla saAAeeran

إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا

Musharraf Hussain

He used to be happy amid his family.

Innahu kana fee ahlihi masrooran

إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

Musharraf Hussain

He was convinced he wouldn’t return to His Lord.

Innahu thanna an lan yahoora

بَلَىٰ إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا

Musharraf Hussain

Yes, His Lord was watching him

Bala inna rabbahu kana bihi baseeran

فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ

Musharraf Hussain

So, I swear by the red horizon at sunset,</i

Fala oqsimu bialshshafaqi

وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

Musharraf Hussain

and by the night and all that it covers up,

Waallayli wama wasaqa

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ

Musharraf Hussain

and by the full moon:

Waalqamari itha ittasaqa

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ

Musharraf Hussain

you will develop stage by stage.

Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

Musharraf Hussain

What’s the matter with them that they don’t believe,

Fama lahum la yu/minoona

وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ

Musharraf Hussain

and when the Quran is recited to them they don’t prostrate.

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

بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُكَذِّبُونَ

Musharraf Hussain

The disbelievers deny.

Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona

وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

Musharraf Hussain

Allah knows best what they hide in their minds,</i

WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

Musharraf Hussain

so give them good news of a painful punishment,

Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin

إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ

Musharraf Hussain

except for those who believe and do righteous deeds; for them, there is a never-ending reward

Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum ajrun ghayru mamnoonin
