The Cleaving

The Koran




082.001
When the heaven is cleft asunder,

082.002
When the planets are dispersed,

082.003
When the seas are poured forth,

082.004
And the sepulchres are overturned,

082.005
A soul will know what it hath sent before (it) and what left behind.

082.006
O man! What hath made thee careless concerning thy Lord, the Bountiful,

082.007
Who created thee, then fashioned, then proportioned thee ?

082.008
Into whatsoever form He will, He casteth thee.

082.009
Nay, but ye deny the Judgment.

082.010
Lo! there are above you guardians,

082.011
Generous and recording,

082.012
Who know (all) that ye do.

082.013
Lo! the righteous verily will be in delight.

082.014
And lo! the wicked verily will be in hell;

082.015
They will burn therein on the Day of Judgment,

082.016
And will not be absent thence.

082.017
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

082.018
Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

082.019
A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.
