Surah The earthquake [Al-Zalzala] in English
إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا ﴿١﴾
When the earth is shaken with its appointed tremor.
وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا ﴿٢﴾
And the earth throws out its burdens.
وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا لَهَا ﴿٣﴾
And man says, “What has happened to it?”
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا ﴿٤﴾
On that day earth will narrate its news,
بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا ﴿٥﴾
Because your Lord sent a command to it.
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًۭا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَٰلَهُمْ ﴿٦﴾
On that day men will return towards their Lord, in different groups, in order to be shown their deeds.
فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًۭا يَرَهُۥ ﴿٧﴾
So whoever does a good deed equal to the weight of the minutest particle, will see it.
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍۢ شَرًّۭا يَرَهُۥ ﴿٨﴾
And whoever does an evil deed equal to the weight of the minutest particle, will see it.
