بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

99:1

idhā zul'zilati l-arḍu zil'zālahā

When the earth is shaken ˹in˺ its ultimate quaking,

99:2

wa-akhrajati l-arḍu athqālahā

and when the earth throws out ˹all˺ its contents,

99:3

waqāla l-insānu mā lahā

and humanity cries, “What is wrong with it?”—

99:4

yawma-idhin tuḥaddithu akhbārahā

on that Day the earth will recount everything,

99:5

bi-anna rabbaka awḥā lahā

having been inspired by your Lord ˹to do so˺.

99:6

yawma-idhin yaṣduru l-nāsu ashtātan liyuraw aʿmālahum

On that Day people will proceed in separate groups to be shown ˹the consequences of˺ their deeds.

faman yaʿmal mith'qāla dharratin khayran yarahu

So whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it.

99:8

waman yaʿmal mith'qāla dharratin sharran yarahu

And whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.
