> 1 When the heaven is cleft asunder, 
> 
> 2 When the planets are dispersed, 
> 
> 3 When the seas are poured forth, 
> 
> 4 And the sepulchres are overturned, 
> 
> 5 A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind. 
> 
> 6 O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful, 
> 
> 7 Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ? 
> 
> 8 Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee. 
> 
> 9 Nay, but ye deny the Judgment. 
> 
> 10 Lo! there are above you guardians, 
> 
> 11 Generous and recording, 
> 
> 12 Who know (all) that ye do. 
> 
> 13 Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight. 
> 
> 14 And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell; 
> 
> 15 They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment, 
> 
> 16 And will not be absent thence. 
> 
> 17 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 
> 
> 18 Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is! 
> 
> 19 A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
