[to The Opening]


Surah 82.  Al-Infitar

In the name of ALLAH, the Benevolent, the Merciful

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 has sent before and what left behind.

6.  O man!  What has made you careless concerning your Lord, the Bountiful,

7.  Who created you, then fashioned, then proportioned you?

8.  Into whatsover form He will, He casts you

9.  Nay, but they deny the Judgment.

10.  Surely there are above you guardians,

11.  Generous and recording,

12.  Who know that you do.

13.  Surely the righteous surely will be in delight

14.  And Surely the wicked surely 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 to you what the Day of Judgment is!

18.  Again, what will convey to you what the Day of Judgment is!

19.  A day on which no soul has power at all for any soul.  The command on that day is ALLAH's.
