بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ إِذَا السَّماءُ انشَقَّت

When the sky fractures.

وَأَذِنَت لِرَبِّها وَحُقَّت

And obeys its Lord, as it must.

وَإِذَا الأَرضُ مُدَّت

And when the earth is expanded.

وَأَلقَت ما فيها وَتَخَلَّت

And casts out whatever in it, and empties itself.

وَأَذِنَت لِرَبِّها وَحُقَّت

And it obeys its Lord, as it should.

فَأَمّا مَن أوتِيَ كِتابَهُ بِيَمينِهِ

As for the one who is given his record in his right hand.

فَسَوفَ يُحاسَبُ حِسابًا يَسيرًا

He will face an easy accounting.

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلىٰ أَهلِهِ مَسرورًا

And will return to his family happily.

وَأَمّا مَن أوتِيَ كِتابَهُ وَراءَ ظَهرِهِ

But as for the one who is given his record behind his back.

فَسَوفَ يَدعو ثُبورًا

He will call for annihilation.
