بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا١
When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake
وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا٢
And the earth discharges its burdens
وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا لَهَا٣
And man says, "What is [wrong] with it?" -
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا٤
That Day, it will report its news
بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا٥
Because your Lord has commanded it.
يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًۭا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَٰلَهُمْ٦
That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds.
فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًۭا يَرَهُۥ٧
So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it,
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍۢ شَرًّۭا يَرَهُۥ٨
And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ١
The Striking Calamity -
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ٢
What is the Striking Calamity?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ٣
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ٤
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ٥
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ٦
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍۢ رَّاضِيَةٍۢ٧
He will be in a pleasant life.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ٨
But as for one whose scales are light,
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌۭ٩
His refuge will be an abyss.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ١٠
And what can make you know what that is?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ١١
It is a Fire, intensely hot.

Read the passage · At-Tin
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلتِّينِ وَٱلزَّيْتُونِ١
By the fig and the olive
وَطُورِ سِينِينَ٢
And [by] Mount Sinai
وَهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ ٱلْأَمِينِ٣
And [by] this secure city [Makkah],
لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ فِىٓ أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِيمٍۢ٤
We have certainly created man in the best of stature;
ثُمَّ رَدَدْنَٰهُ أَسْفَلَ سَٰفِلِينَ٥
Then We return him to the lowest of the low,
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَلَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۢ٦
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for they will have a reward uninterrupted.
فَمَا يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعْدُ بِٱلدِّينِ٧
So what yet causes you to deny the Recompense?
أَلَيْسَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ ٱلْحَٰكِمِينَ٨
Is not Allah the most just of judges?
Read the passage · At-Takaathur
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ١
Competition in [worldly] increase diverts you
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ٢
Until you visit the graveyards.
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ٣
No! You are going to know.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ٤
Then no! You are going to know.
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ٥
No! If you only knew with knowledge of certainty...
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ٦
You will surely see the Hellfire.
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ٧
Then you will surely see it with the eye of certainty.
ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ٨
Then you will surely be asked that Day about pleasure.
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
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.
