Quran: Select your reading level

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

1. When the sky is split open.

2. And listens to its Lord, as it rightly must.

3. And when the earth is stretched forth.

4. And casts out what is in it and becomes empty.

5. And listens to its Lord, as it rightly must.

6. O human being, surely you are laboring toward your Lord with great exertion, and you will meet Him.

7. Then as for one who is given his record in his right hand.

8. He will be judged with an easy reckoning.

9. And will return to his people joyfully.

10. But as for one who is given his record behind his back.

11. He will cry out for destruction.

12. And will enter a blazing Fire.

13. Indeed, he was joyful among his people.

14. Surely, he thought he would never return.

15. Yes surely; certainly his Lord was ever watchful of him.

16. So I swear by the twilight glow.

17. And by the night and what it envelops.

18. And by the moon when it becomes full.

19. You will surely journey from stage to stage.

20. So what is the matter with them that they do not believe?

21. And when the Quran is recited to them, they do not prostrate.

22. Rather, those who disbelieve deny.

23. And Allah is most knowing of what they harbor.

24. So give them tidings of a painful punishment.

25. Except those who believe and do righteous deeds; for them is a reward unending.
