1 The Shaking

إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا

When the earth is shaken with her mighty quaking. (A mighty Revolution will overtake the world)

Itha zulzilati al-ardu zilzalaha

وَأَخْرَجَتِ الْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا

And the earth yields up her burdens. (Archaeology and mining will make long strides. The heavy tyrants will be thrown out of power)

Waakhrajati al-ardu athqalaha

وَقَالَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا لَهَا

And mankind cries out, "What has happened to her?" (People will be stunned at the speed of unfolding events)

Waqala al-insanu ma laha

يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا

At that time she will relate her stories. (History of benevolent revolutions will repeat itself on a massive scale)

Yawma-ithin tuhaddithu akhbaraha

بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا

For your Lord will have sent His Command to her. (Progressive unfolding of the Divine Decree)

Bi-anna rabbaka awha laha

يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ النَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا أَعْمَالَهُمْ

On that Day will all people come forth as separate entities, to be shown their deeds. (The guilty will stand apart from the innocent. (36:59))

Yawma-ithin yasduru alnnasu ashtatan liyuraw aAAmalahum

فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ

Then whoever has done an atom's weight of good, will see it

Faman yaAAmal mithqala tharratin khayran yarahu

وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ
