Surah The earthquake [Al-Zalzala] in English
إِذَا زُلۡزِلَتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ زِلۡزَالَهَا ﴿1﴾
When the earth is shaken with a mighty quake,
وَأَخۡرَجَتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ أَثۡقَالَهَا ﴿2﴾
and the earth throws out its burdens[1],
وَقَالَ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ مَا لَهَا ﴿3﴾
and man says[2], “What is the matter with it?”
یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ تُحَدِّثُ أَخۡبَارَهَا ﴿4﴾
On that Day it will recount all its news,
بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوۡحَىٰ لَهَا ﴿5﴾
because your Lord has inspired it [to do so].
یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ یَصۡدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشۡتَاتࣰا لِّیُرَوۡا۟ أَعۡمَـٰلَهُمۡ ﴿6﴾
On that Day all people will come forward in separate groups to be shown their deeds[3].
فَمَن یَعۡمَلۡ مِثۡقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَیۡرࣰا یَرَهُۥ ﴿7﴾
So whoever does an atom’s weight[4] of good will see it,
وَمَن یَعۡمَلۡ مِثۡقَالَ ذَرَّةࣲ شَرࣰّا یَرَهُۥ ﴿8﴾
and whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.
