Yusufali: |
When the sky is rent asunder,
|
Pickthall: |
When the heaven is split asunder
|
084.002
|
Yusufali: |
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so);-
|
Pickthall: |
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
|
084.003
|
Yusufali: |
And when the earth is flattened out,
|
Pickthall: |
And when the earth is spread out
|
084.004
|
Yusufali: |
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
|
Pickthall: |
And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
|
084.005
|
Yusufali: |
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord,- and it must needs (do so);- (then will come Home the full reality).
|
Pickthall: |
And attentive to her Lord in fear!
|
084.006
|
Yusufali: |
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord- painfully toiling,- but thou shalt meet Him.
|
Pickthall: |
Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).
|
084.007
|
Yusufali: |
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,
|
Pickthall: |
Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
|
084.008
|
Yusufali: |
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
|
Pickthall: |
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
|
084.009
|
Yusufali: |
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
|
Pickthall: |
And will return unto his folk in joy.
|
084.010
|
Yusufali: |
But he who is given his Record behind his back,-
|
Pickthall: |
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
|
084.011
|
Yusufali: |
Soon will he cry for perdition,
|
Pickthall: |
He surely will invoke destruction
|
084.012
|
Yusufali: |
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
|
Pickthall: |
And be thrown to scorching fire.
|
084.013
|
Yusufali: |
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
|
Pickthall: |
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
|
084.014
|
Yusufali: |
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
|
Pickthall: |
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
|
084.015
|
Yusufali: |
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
|
Pickthall: |
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
|
084.016
|
Yusufali: |
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
|
Pickthall: |
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
|
084.017
|
Yusufali: |
The Night and its Homing;
|
Pickthall: |
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
|
084.018
|
Yusufali: |
And the Moon in her fullness:
|
Pickthall: |
And by the moon when she is at the full,
|
084.019
|
Yusufali: |
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
|
Pickthall: |
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
|
084.020
|
Yusufali: |
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not?-
|
Pickthall: |
What aileth them, then, that they believe not
|
084.021
|
Yusufali: |
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
|
Pickthall: |
And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)?
|
084.022
|
Yusufali: |
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
|
Pickthall: |
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
|
084.023
|
Yusufali: |
But God has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
|
Pickthall: |
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
|
084.024
|
Yusufali: |
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
|
Pickthall: |
So give them tidings of a painful doom,
|
084.025
|
Yusufali: |
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.
|
Pickthall: |
Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
