Surah Al-InfitarMakiha19In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful. When the sky is rent apart, ﴾1﴿when the stars are scattered, ﴾2﴿when the seas are merged, ﴾3﴿when the graves are overturned, ﴾4﴿then a soul shall know what it has sent ahead and left behind. ﴾5﴿O man! What has deceived you about your generous Lord, ﴾6﴿who created you and proportioned you, and gave you an upright nature, ﴾7﴿and composed you in any form that He wished? ﴾8﴿No! Indeed, you deny the Retribution. ﴾9﴿Indeed, there are over you watchers, ﴾10﴿noble writers, ﴾11﴿who know whatever you do. ﴾12﴿Indeed the pious shall be amid bliss, ﴾13﴿and indeed the vicious shall be in hell, ﴾14﴿entering it on the Day of Retribution, ﴾15﴿and they shall not be absent from it. ﴾16﴿And what will show you what is the Day of Retribution? ﴾17﴿Again, what will show you what is the Day of Retribution? ﴾18﴿It is a day when no soul will be of any avail to another soul and all command that day will belong to Allah. ﴾19﴿Surah Al-MutaffifinMakiha36In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.Woe to the defrauders, who use short measures, ﴾1﴿who, when they measure [a commodity bought] from the people, take the full measure, ﴾2﴿but diminish when they measure or weigh for them. ﴾3﴿Do they not know that they will be resurrected ﴾4﴿on a tremendous day, ﴾5﴿a day when mankind will stand before the Lord of all the worlds? ﴾6﴿Indeed, the record of the vicious is in Sijjeen. ﴾7﴿And what will show you what is Sijjeen? ﴾8﴿It is a written record. ﴾9﴿Woe to the deniers on that day, ﴾10﴿who deny the Day of Retribution; ﴾11﴿and none denies it except every sinful transgressor. ﴾12﴿When Our signs are recited to him, he says, ‘Myths of the ancients!’ ﴾13﴿No, that is not the case! Rather, their hearts have been sullied by what they have been earning. ﴾14﴿Indeed, they will be alienated from their Lord on that day. ﴾15﴿Afterward they will enter hell, ﴾16﴿then told, ‘This is what you used to deny!’ ﴾17﴿Indeed, the record of the pious is in Illeeyun. ﴾18﴿And what will show you what is Illeeyun? ﴾19﴿It is a written record, ﴾20﴿witnessed by those brought near [to Allah]. ﴾21﴿The pious shall be amid bliss, ﴾22﴿observing, [as they recline] on couches. ﴾23﴿You will perceive in their faces the freshness of bliss. ﴾24﴿They will be served with a sealed pure wine, ﴾25﴿whose seal is musk—for such let the viers vie— ﴾26﴿and whose seasoning is from Tasneem, ﴾27﴿a spring where those brought near [to Allah] drink. ﴾28﴿Indeed the guilty used to laugh at the faithful, ﴾29﴿and when they passed them by they would wink at each other, ﴾30﴿and when they returned to their folks they would return amused, ﴾31﴿and when they saw them they would say, ‘Indeed those are the astray!’ ﴾32﴿Though they were not sent to watch over them. ﴾33﴿So today the faithful will laugh at the faithless, ﴾34﴿observing from their couches: ﴾35﴿Have the faithless been requited for what they used to do? ﴾36﴿Surah Al-InshiqaqMakiha25In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.When the sky is split open ﴾1﴿and gives ear to its Lord as it should. ﴾2﴿When the earth is spread out ﴾3﴿and throws out what is in it, emptying itself, ﴾4﴿and gives ear to its Lord as it should. ﴾5﴿O man! You are labouring toward your Lord laboriously, and you will encounter Him. ﴾6﴿Then, as for him who is given his record [of deeds] in his right hand, ﴾7﴿he will receive an easy reckoning, ﴾8﴿and he will return to his folks joyfully. ﴾9﴿But as for him who is given his record from behind his back, ﴾10﴿he will pray for annihilation ﴾11﴿and enter the Blaze. ﴾12﴿Indeed he used to be joyful among his folk, ﴾13﴿and he thought that he would never return. ﴾14﴿Yes, his Lord had been watching him. ﴾15﴿I swear by the evening glow, ﴾16﴿by the night and what it is fraught with, ﴾17﴿by the moon when it blooms full: ﴾18﴿you will surely fare from stage to stage. ﴾19﴿What is the matter with them that they will not believe, ﴾20﴿and will not prostrate when the Quran is recited to them? ﴾21﴿Indeed, the faithless impugn [the Apostle], ﴾22﴿and Allah knows best what they keep to themselves. ﴾23﴿So inform them of a painful punishment, ﴾24﴿excepting such as are faithful and do righteous deeds: for them there will be an everlasting reward. ﴾25﴿Surah Al-BurujMakiha22In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.By the heaven with its Houses, ﴾1﴿by the Promised Day, ﴾2﴿by the Witness and the Witnessed: ﴾3﴿perish the People of the Ditch! ﴾4﴿The fire abounding in fuel, ﴾5﴿above which they sat ﴾6﴿as they were themselves witnesses to what they did to the faithful. ﴾7﴿They were vindictive towards them only because they had faith in Allah, the All-mighty and the All-laudable, ﴾8﴿to whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is witness to all things. ﴾9﴿Indeed those who persecute the faithful, men and women, and do not repent thereafter, there is the punishment of hell for them and the punishment of burning. ﴾10﴿Indeed those who have faith and do righteous deeds—for them will be gardens with streams running in them. That is the supreme success. ﴾11﴿Indeed your Lord’s striking is severe. ﴾12﴿It is indeed He who originates and brings back, ﴾13﴿and He is the All-forgiving, the All-affectionate, ﴾14﴿Lord of the Throne, the All-glorious, ﴾15﴿doer of what He desires. ﴾16﴿Did you receive the story of the hosts ﴾17﴿of Pharaoh and Thamud? ﴾18﴿Indeed the faithless dwell in denial, ﴾19﴿and Allah besieges them from all around. ﴾20﴿Indeed it is a glorious Quran, ﴾21﴿in a preserved tablet. ﴾22﴿Surah At-TariqMakiha17In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.By the heaven, and by the nightly visitor ﴾1﴿(and what will show you what is the nightly visitor? ﴾2﴿It is the brilliant star): ﴾3﴿there is a guard over every soul. ﴾4﴿So let man consider from what he was created. ﴾5﴿He was created from an effusing fluid ﴾6﴿which issues from between the loins and the breast-bones. ﴾7﴿Indeed He is able to bring him back [after death], ﴾8﴿on the day when the secrets are examined ﴾9﴿and he shall have neither power nor helper. ﴾10﴿By the resurgent heaven, ﴾11﴿and by the furrowed earth: ﴾12﴿it is indeed a conclusive discourse, ﴾13﴿and not a jest. ﴾14﴿Indeed they are devising a stratagem, ﴾15﴿and I [too] am devising a plan. ﴾16﴿So respite the faithless; give them a gentle respite. ﴾17﴿
