The Qur'an Sura LXXXII — THE CLEAVING
1WHEN the Heaven shall CLEAVE asunder,
2And when the stars shall disperse,
3And when the seas shall be commingled,
4And when the graves shall be turned upside down,
5Each soul shall recognise its earliest and its latest actions.
6O man! what hath misled thee against thy generous Lord,
7Who hath created thee and moulded thee and shaped thee aright?
8In the form which pleased Him hath He fashioned thee.
9Even so; but ye treat the Judgment as a lie.
10Yet truly there are guardians over you–
11Illustrious recorders–
12Cognisant of your actions.
13Surely amid delights shall the righteous dwell,
14But verily the impure in Hell-fire:
15They shall be burned at it on the day of doom,
16And they shall not be able to hide themselves from it.
17Who shall teach thee what the day of doom is?
18Once more. Who shall teach thee what the day of doom is?
19It is a day when one soul shall be powerless for another soul: all sovereignty on that day shall be with God.
Suras are in the standard order; verse divisions follow Rodwell's 1861 edition and do not always match the standard ayah numbering.
