99. Az-Zalzalah

إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا

When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake

idhā zul'zilati l-arḍu zil'zālahā

وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا

And the earth discharges its burdens1

wa-akhrajati l-arḍu athqālahā

وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا لَهَا

And man says,1 "What is [wrong] with it?" -

waqāla l-insānu mā lahā

يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا

That Day, it will report its news

yawma-idhin tuḥaddithu akhbārahā

بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا

Because your Lord has inspired [i.e., commanded] it.

bi-anna rabbaka awḥā lahā

يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ

That Day, the people will depart1 separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds.

yawma-idhin yaṣduru l-nāsu ashtātan liyuraw aʿmālahum

فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُۥ

So whoever does an atom's weight1 of good will see it,

faman yaʿmal mith'qāla dharratin khayran yarahu

وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُۥ

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

waman yaʿmal mith'qāla dharratin sharran yarahu
