Learn Sūrat al-Inshiqāq
Read it below, then recite it aloud and let Qiraa correct you word by word.
What Sūrat al-Inshiqāq is about
Sūrat al-Inshiqāq has 25 āyāt in the thirtieth juzʼ. It opens with the sky split open, which gives the sūrah its name, listening to its Lord as it must, and the earth stretched out, casting out what is in it (84:1–4).
The sūrah tells the human that he is toiling steadily towards his Lord and will meet Him (84:6). Whoever is given his record in his right hand has an easy reckoning and returns to his people happy; whoever is given it behind his back calls for ruin (84:7–12). It swears by the twilight and the full moon that people will pass from stage to stage (84:16–19), and asks why they do not prostrate when the Qurʼān is recited (84:21).
- Āyāt 1–5
When the sky splits open
When the sky splits open and listens to its Lord, as it must, and the earth is stretched out, casts out what is in it and is emptied, listening to its Lord as it must.
- Āyāt 6–15
Toiling towards your Lord
The human is toiling steadily towards his Lord and will meet Him. Whoever is given his record in his right hand has an easy reckoning and returns to his people happy (84:7–9). Whoever is given it behind his back cries for ruin. He was happy among his people and thought he would never return (84:13–14).
- Āyāt 16–25
Stage after stage
By the twilight, the night and what it gathers, and the moon when it is full, people will pass from stage to stage (84:19). Why do they not believe, and not prostrate when the Qurʼān is recited to them (84:20–21)? Those who believe and do good have a reward that never ends (84:25).
