Surah The Cleaving [AL-Infitar] Ayah 19 Location Maccah Number 82

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ ﴿١﴾

When the heaven is split asunder,

وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ ﴿٢﴾

when the stars are scattered,

وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ ﴿٣﴾

when the seas are made to burst forth,

وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ ﴿٤﴾

and when graves are laid open,

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌۭ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ ﴿٥﴾

everyone shall know all his deeds, both the earlier and the later.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ ﴿٦﴾

O man! What has deceived you about your generous Lord

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ ﴿٧﴾

Who created you, shaped you, and made you well-proportioned,

فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍۢ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ ﴿٨﴾

and set you in whatever form He pleased?

كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ ﴿٩﴾

No indeed; (the fact is that) you deny the Reckoning, declaring it a lie;

وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ ﴿١٠﴾

you do so the while there are watchers over you;

كِرَامًۭا كَٰتِبِينَ ﴿١١﴾

noble scribes,

يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ ﴿١٢﴾

who know what you do.

إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍۢ ﴿١٣﴾

Surely the virtuous shall be in Bliss,

وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍۢ ﴿١٤﴾

and the wicked shall be in the Blazing Fire.

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿١٥﴾

They shall enter it on the Day of Recompense

وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ ﴿١٦﴾

and then shall never come out of it.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿١٧﴾

What do you know what the Day of Recompense is?

ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ﴿١٨﴾

Again, what do you know what the Day of Recompense is?

يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌۭ لِّنَفْسٍۢ شَيْـًۭٔا ۖ وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلَّهِ ﴿١٩﴾

It is the Day when no one shall have the power to do anything for another, and all command shall be Allah's.
