  2. وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

    84:2And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]

  3. وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ

    84:3And when the earth has been extended

  4. وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ

  5. وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ

    84:5And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -

  6. يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًۭا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ

    84:6O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

  7. فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ

    84:7Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

  8. فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًۭا يَسِيرًۭا

    84:8He will be judged with an easy account

  9. وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًۭا

    84:9And return to his people in happiness.

  10. وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ

    84:10But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

  11. فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًۭا

    84:11He will cry out for destruction

  12. وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

    84:12And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

  13. إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا

    84:13Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

  14. إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

    84:14Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

  15. بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًۭا

    84:15But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

  16. فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ

    84:16So I swear by the twilight glow

  17. وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ

    84:17And [by] the night and what it envelops

  18. وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ

    84:18And [by] the moon when it becomes full

  19. لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍۢ

    84:19[That] you will surely experience state after state.

  20. فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

    84:20So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

  21. وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩

    84:21And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

    Sajdah
  22. بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ

    84:22But those who have disbelieved deny,

  23. وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

    84:23And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

  24. فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

    84:24So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

  25. إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ

    84:25Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
