The Rending 84

And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty

Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).

Then whoso is given his account in his right hand

But whoso is given his account behind his back,

He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).

Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!

And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

And by the moon when she is at the full,

That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

What aileth them, then, that they believe not

And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah)?

Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
