The Cleaving in Sunder[1] (Arabic:الانفطار, al-infiṭār, also known as "The Cleaving" and "Bursting Apart") is the 82nd sura of theQuran, with 19ayat. The chapter is named 'Al-Infitar' because of the occurrence of the word 'unfatarat' in the first verse of this chapter. Infitar means 'split asunder': the word 'Unfatarat' is used in this chapter in order to describe the splitting of the sky on the day of Judgment. This chapter (Al-Infitar), along with chaptersAt-Takwir andAl-Inshiqaq, provides an exhaustive description about the 'Day of Judgment'.
