25 Verses Makki, Revealed in Mecca

In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

1. When the sky is ripped open,
2. Obeying its Lord as it rightly must,  
3. When the earth is flattened out,  
4. Casts out what is within it, and becomes empty,  
5. Obeying its Lord as it rightly must, (then will come the full Reality).
6. You humans, toiling laboriously towards your Lord, will meet Him:  
7. Whoever is given his record in his right hand  
8. Will have an easy reckoning  
9. And return to his people well pleased.
10. But whoever is given his record from behind his back
11. Will cry out for perdition-
12. He will burn in the blazing Fire.
13 He used to live among his people rejoicing!  
14. He thought he would never return (to his Lord) —
15. Indeed he will! His Lord was watching him.
16. I swear by the ruddy glow of sunset;
17. By the night and what it covers,  
18. And by the moon and her fullness,
19. You will progress from stage to stage.
20. So why do they not believe?  
21. Why, when the Quran is read to them, do they not prostrate themselves (to Allah)?  
22. No! On the contrary, the disbelievers reject the Quran-
23. But Allah knows best what they keep hidden inside (their hearts).
24. So give them news of a painful torment.
25. But those who believe and do good deeds will have a never-ending reward.
