    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنفَطَرَتْ١

    When the sky breaks apart

    وَإِذَا ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ ٱنتَثَرَتْ٢

    And when the stars fall, scattering,

    وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ٣

    And when the seas are erupted

    وَإِذَا ٱلْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ٤

    And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,

    عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌۭ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ٥

    A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.

    يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ ٱلْكَرِيمِ٦

    O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,

    ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّىٰكَ فَعَدَلَكَ٧

    Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?

    فِىٓ أَىِّ صُورَةٍۢ مَّا شَآءَ رَكَّبَكَ٨

    In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.

    كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِٱلدِّينِ٩

    No! But you deny the Recompense.

    وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَٰفِظِينَ١٠

    And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,

    كِرَامًۭا كَٰتِبِينَ١١

    Noble and recording;

    يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ١٢

    They know whatever you do.

    إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍۢ١٣

    Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

    وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍۢ١٤

    And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

    يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ١٥

    They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,

    وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ١٦

    And never therefrom will they be absent.

    وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ١٧

    And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

    ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ١٨

    Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?

    يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌۭ لِّنَفْسٍۢ شَيْـًۭٔا ۖ وَٱلْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلَّهِ١٩

    It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah.

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا١

    By the sun and its brightness

    وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا٢

    And [by] the moon when it follows it

    وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا٣

    And [by] the day when it displays it

    وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا٤

    And [by] the night when it covers it

    وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا٥

    And [by] the sky and He who constructed it

    وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا٦

    And [by] the earth and He who spread it

    وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا٧

    And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it

    فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا٨

    And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness,

    قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا٩

    He has succeeded who purifies it,

    وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا١٠

    And he has failed who instills it [with corruption].

    كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ١١

    Thamud denied [their prophet] by reason of their transgression,

    إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا١٢

    When the most wretched of them was sent forth.

    فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقْيَٰهَا١٣

    And the messenger of Allah [Salih] said to them, "[Do not harm] the she-camel of Allah or [prevent her from] her drink."

    فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا١٤

    But they denied him and hamstrung her. So their Lord brought down upon them destruction for their sin and made it equal [upon all of them].

    وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا١٥

    And He does not fear the consequence thereof.

  3. Isha

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently. The live tracker's ayat begin on 25 September 2026; for earlier days this page shows the Haramain library's records.

Look up a day

Hijri date

Where this comes from

Each prayer's imam, passage and recording are listed by the Haramain library, Tilawat al-Haramain (tilawatalharamain.com), usually within a few hours of the prayer. Its titles are written by hand; Hasanah reads the surahs and ayat from them.

The ayat by rak'ah come from Hasanah's live tracker, which listens to the Quran channel's broadcast from the Haram and names each ayah as it is recited. It has kept them since 25 September 2026. It can miss an ayah or mishear one, so a passage it heard may be a little shorter or longer than the one recited.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently, so there is no recitation to show for them. Times are calculated for Makkah by the Umm al-Qura method.
