THE CLEAVING, BURSTING APART, CHAPTER NO. 082

With the Name of Allah, the Merciful Benefactor, The Merciful Redeemer

082.001 When the Sky is cleft asunder;

082.002 When the Stars are scattered;

082.003 When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;

082.004 And when the Graves are turned upside down;-

082.005 (Then) shall each soul know what it hath sent forward and (what it hath) kept back.

082.006 O man! What has seduced thee from thy Lord Most Beneficent?-

082.007 Him Who created thee. Fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias;

082.008 In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.

082.009 Day! nit ye do reject Right and Judgment!

082.010 But verily over you (are appointed angels) to protect you,-

082.011 Kind and honourable,- Writing down (your deeds):

082.012 They know (and understand) all that ye do.

082.013 As for the Righteous, they will be in bliss;

082.014 And the Wicked - they will be in the Fire,

082.015 Which they will enter on the Day of Judgment,

082.016 And they will not be able to keep away therefrom.

082.017 And what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

082.018 Again, what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

082.019 (It will be) the Day when no soul shall have power (to do) aught for another:

For the command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.
