Colorful Surah Inshiqaq with English Translation

سورة الإنشقاق هي السورة رقم 84 من القرآن بترجمة عثمانية إلى الإنجليزية

Surat al-Inshiqaq (Arabic: سورة الانشقاق‎, “The Sundering”, “Splitting Open”) is the eighty-fourth chapter (sura) of the Qur'an with 25 ayat positioned in Para 30 / Juz Amma (Juz' 30). It mentions details of the Day of Judgment when, according to the chapter, everyone will receive reckoning over their deeds in this world.

Revelation:

According to the Islamic tradition, Al-Inshiqaq was most likely revealed after the 82nd chapter Al-Infitar, and was chronologically one of the last of the Meccan / Makki surahs—chapters revealed before Muhammad's (s) migration to Madina.

Hadith / Hadees:

The first and foremost exegesis / tafsir of the Qur'an is found in hadis of prophet Muhammad (s). Although scholars including ibn Taymiyyah claim that Muhammad (s) has commented on the whole of the Qur'an, others including Ghazali cite the limited amount of narratives, thus indicating that he has commented only on a portion of the Qur'an (Mushaf / Koran / Kuran). Hadith / Hades (حديث) is literally "speech" or "report", that is a recorded saying or tradition of Muhammad (s) validated by isnad; with Sirah Rasul Allah these comprise the sunnah and reveal shariah. According to Hazrat Aishah (r.a), the life of Prophet Muhammad (s) was practical implementation of Qur'an. Therefore, higher count of hadith elevates the importance of the pertinent surah from a certain perspective. According to hadith, whoever wants to see the Qiyamah with his/her eyes should read the verses of At-Takwirr, Al-Infitar and Al-Inshiqaq.

Imam Ahmad recorded from Ibn Umar that the Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever wishes to look at the Day of Resurrection, as if he is seeing it with this eye, then let him recite: ‘When the sun Kuwwirat’(At-Takwir) and ‘When the heaven is cleft sunder (Al-Infitar) and ‘When the heaven is split asunder.(Al-Inshiqaq)’”

Abu Huraira reported: We performed prostration along with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) (as he recited these verses: )" When the heaven burst asunder"(Al-Inshiqaq) and" Read in the name of Thy Lord(Al-Alaq)"

Content:

The name of the chapter, Al-Inshiqaq, is a noun variously translated as "The Sundering", "The Bursting Asunder", "The Splitting Open", among others. This name comes from the first verse of the chapter which reads When the sky is rent asunder. The verse does not contain the word al-inshiqaq verbatim, but rather it contains a word of the same root. It is a reference to the destruction of the world at the end of days, which the chapter portend. Thematically, the chapter follows a day-of-judgement theme that is present in the preceding chapters, including Al-Infitar (the 82nd chapter) and Al-Mutaffifin (83rd).

1. Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: Whoever recites both these Surahs, al-Infitar and al-Inshiqaq, in his obligatory and recommended prayers there would be no impediment in his affair reaching Allah on the Day of Judgment, and no stopper would stop him, Allah would look at him with mercy until the reckoning of the people would be over.

2. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: Whoever recites Surah Inshiqaq, Allah would save him from the position that his record of deed be thrown behind his back.
