وَإِذَا السَّمَاءُ كُشِطَتْ
11. And when the sky is stripped away
وَإِذَا الْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ
12. And when Hellfire is set ablaze
وَإِذَا الْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ
13. And when Paradise is brought near,
عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَا أَحْضَرَتْ
14. A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالْخُنَّسِ
15. So I swear by the retreating stars -
الْجَوَارِ الْكُنَّسِ
16. Those that run [their courses] and disappear -
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ
17. And by the night as it closes in
وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ
18. And by the dawn when it breathes
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
19. [That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger
ذِي قُوَّةٍ عِنْدَ ذِي الْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍ
20. [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],
