obeying its Lord as it must,

and when the earth is flattened out,
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
and ejects ˹all˺ its contents1 and becomes empty,

obeying its Lord as it must, ˹surely you will all be judged˺.

As for those who are given their record in their right hand,
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
they will have an easy reckoning,
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
and will return to their people joyfully.
