Surah Al-Inshiqaq in the Qaloun Recitation

إِذَا اَ۬لسَّمَآءُ اُ۪نشَقَّتْ﴿1﴾

When the sky has split [open]

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ﴿2﴾

And has listened [i.e., responded] to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

وَإِذَا اَ۬لْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ﴿3﴾

And when the earth has been extended

وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ﴿4﴾

And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it].

وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْۖ﴿5﴾

And has listened [i.e., responded] to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -

يَٰأَيُّهَا اَ۬لْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحاٗ فَمُلَٰقِيهِۖ﴿6﴾

O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ﴿7﴾

Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَاباٗ يَسِيراٗ﴿8﴾

He will be judged with an easy account

وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُوراٗۖ﴿9﴾

And return to his people in happiness.

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ﴿10﴾

But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُواْ ثُبُوراٗ﴿11﴾

He will cry out for destruction

وَيُصَلَّىٰ سَعِيراًۖ﴿12﴾

And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِے أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُوراًۖ﴿13﴾

Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّنْ يَّحُورَ﴿14﴾

Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allāh].

بَلَىٰۖ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيراٗۖ﴿15﴾

But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever, of him, Seeing.

۞ فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ﴿16﴾

So I swear by the twilight glow

وَاليْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ﴿17﴾

And [by] the night and what it envelops

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اَ۪تَّسَقَ﴿18﴾

And [by] the moon when it becomes full

لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقاً عَن طَبَقٖۖ﴿19﴾

[That] you will surely embark upon [i.e., experience] state after state.

فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ﴿20﴾

So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

وَإِذَا قُرِۓَ عَلَيْهِمُ اُ۬لْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَۖ﴿21﴾

And when the Qur’ān is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allāh]?

بَلِ اِ۬لذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُكَذِّبُونَ﴿22﴾

But those who have disbelieved deny,

وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَۖ﴿23﴾

And Allāh is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍۖ﴿24﴾

So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

إِلَّا اَ۬لذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ اُ۬لصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونِۢۖ﴿25﴾

Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
