75. Kijame · verses 7–15

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ

Faitha bariqa albasaru

At length, when the sight is dazed,

وَخَسَفَ ٱلۡقَمَرُ

Wakhasafa alqamaru

And the moon is buried in darkness.

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمۡسُ وَٱلۡقَمَرُ

WajumiAAa alshshamsu waalqamaru

And the sun and moon are joined together,-

يَقُولُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ يَوۡمَئِذٍ أَيۡنَ ٱلۡمَفَرُّ

Yaqoolu alinsanu yawmaithin ayna almafarru

That Day will Man say: "Where is the refuge?"

كـَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ

Kalla la wazara

By no means! No place of safety!

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوۡمَئِذٍ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقَرُّ

Ila rabbika yawmaithin almustaqarru

Before thy Lord (alone), that Day will be the place of rest.

يُنَبَّؤُاْ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ يَوۡمَئِذِۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ

Yunabbao alinsanu yawmaithin bima qaddama waakhkhara

That Day will Man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he put back.

بَلِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفۡسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةٞ

Bali alinsanu AAala nafsihi baseeratun

Nay, man will be evidence against himself,

وَلَوۡ أَلۡقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ

Walaw alqa maAAatheerahu

Even though he were to put up his excuses.
