بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا ﴿1﴾
Izaa zul zilatil ardu zil zaalaha
1. When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake
جب زمین بھونچال سے ہلا دی جائے گی
وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا ﴿2﴾
Wa akh rajatil ardu athqaalaha
2. And the earth discharges its burdens
اور زمین اپنے (اندر) کے بوجھ نکال ڈالے گی
وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا لَهَا ﴿3﴾
Wa qaalal insaanu ma laha
3. And man says, "What is [wrong] with it?" -
اور انسان کہے گا کہ اس کو کیا ہوا ہے؟
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا ﴿4﴾
Yawmaa izin tuhad dithu akhbaaraha
4. That Day, it will report its news
اس روز وہ اپنے حالات بیان کردے گی
بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا ﴿5﴾
Bi-anna rabbaka awhaa laha
5. Because your Lord has commanded it.
کیونکہ تمہارے پروردگار نے اس کو حکم بھیجا (ہوگا)
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًۭا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَٰلَهُمْ ﴿6﴾
Yawma iziy yas durun naasu ash tatal liyuraw a'maalahum
6. That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds.
اس دن لوگ گروہ گروہ ہو کر آئیں گے تاکہ ان کو ان کے اعمال دکھا دیئے جائیں
فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًۭا يَرَهُۥ ﴿7﴾
Famaiy ya'mal mithqala zarratin khai raiy-yarah
7. So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it,
تو جس نے ذرہ بھر نیکی کی ہو گی وہ اس کو دیکھ لے گا
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍۢ شَرًّۭا يَرَهُۥ ﴿8﴾
Wa maiy-y'amal mithqala zarratin sharraiy-yarah
8. And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.
اور جس نے ذرہ بھر برائی کی ہوگی وہ اسے دیکھ لے گا
