لَا أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ( 1 ) 
I swear by the Day of Resurrection
وَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالنَّفْسِ اللَّوَّامَةِ ( 2 )
And I swear by the reproaching soul [to the certainty of resurrection].
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ ( 3 )
Does man think that We will not assemble his bones?
بَلَىٰ قَادِرِينَ عَلَىٰ أَن نُّسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ ( 4 )
Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips.
بَلْ يُرِيدُ الْإِنسَانُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُ ( 5 )
But man desires to continue in sin.
يَسْأَلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ ( 6 )
He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection?"
فَإِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ ( 7 )
So when vision is dazzled
وَخَسَفَ الْقَمَرُ ( 8 )
And the moon darkens
وَجُمِعَ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ ( 9 )
And the sun and the moon are joined,
يَقُولُ الْإِنسَانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ ( 10 )
Man will say on that Day, "Where is the [place of] escape?"
كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ( 11 )
No! There is no refuge.
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ ( 12 )
To your Lord, that Day, is the [place of] permanence.

Man will be informed that Day of what he sent ahead and kept back.
بَلِ الْإِنسَانُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ بَصِيرَةٌ ( 14 )
Rather, man, against himself, will be a witness,
وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُ ( 15 )
Even if he presents his excuses.
لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ ( 16 )
Move not your tongue with it, [O Muhammad], to hasten with recitation of the Qur'an.
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ ( 17 )
Indeed, upon Us is its collection [in your heart] and [to make possible] its recitation.
فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ ( 18 )
So when We have recited it [through Gabriel], then follow its recitation.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ ( 19 )
Then upon Us is its clarification [to you].
كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ الْعَاجِلَةَ ( 20 )
No! But you love the immediate
وَتَذَرُونَ الْآخِرَةَ ( 21 )
And leave the Hereafter.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاضِرَةٌ ( 22 )
[Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant,
إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌ ( 23 )
Looking at their Lord.
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَاسِرَةٌ ( 24 )
And [some] faces, that Day, will be contorted,
تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌ ( 25 )
Expecting that there will be done to them [something] backbreaking.
كَلَّا إِذَا بَلَغَتِ التَّرَاقِيَ ( 26 )
No! When the soul has reached the collar bones
وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍ ( 27 )
And it is said, "Who will cure [him]?"
وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ الْفِرَاقُ ( 28 )
And the dying one is certain that it is the [time of] separation
وَالْتَفَّتِ السَّاقُ بِالسَّاقِ ( 29 )
And the leg is wound about the leg,
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَسَاقُ ( 30 )
To your Lord, that Day, will be the procession.
فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ ( 31 )
And the disbeliever had not believed, nor had he prayed.
وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 32 )
But [instead], he denied and turned away.
ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ يَتَمَطَّىٰ ( 33 )
And then he went to his people, swaggering [in pride].
أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ ( 34 )
Woe to you, and woe!
ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ ( 35 )
Then woe to you, and woe!
أَيَحْسَبُ الْإِنسَانُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى ( 36 )
Does man think that he will be left neglected?
أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةً مِّن مَّنِيٍّ يُمْنَىٰ ( 37 )
Had he not been a sperm from semen emitted?
ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ( 38 )
Then he was a clinging clot, and [Allah] created [his form] and proportioned [him]
فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ ( 39 )
And made of him two mates, the male and the female.
أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَىٰ أَن يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَىٰ ( 40 )
Is not that [Creator] Able to give life to the dead?
