The Earthquake
الزلزلة
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا ١
When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake
وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا ٢
And the earth discharges its burdens
وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا لَهَا ٣
And man says, "What is [wrong] with it?" -
يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا ٤
That Day, it will report its news
بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا ٥
Because your Lord has inspired [i.e., commanded] it.
يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ ٦
That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds.
فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُۥ ٧
So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it,
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُۥ ٨
And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.
