Chapter 92, 21 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
Waallayli itha yaghsha
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the night as it envelops.
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
والنهار إذا تجلى
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
By the day as it appears in brightness.
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
وما خلق الذكر والأنثى
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
By Him Who created male and female.
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
إن سعيكم لشتى
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
Certainly, your efforts and deeds are diverse (different in aims and purposes);
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
فأما من أعطى واتقى
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allah and fears Him,
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
وصدق بالحسنى
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
And believes in Al-Husna.
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
فسنيسره لليسرى
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
We will make smooth for him the path of ease (goodness).
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
وأما من بخل واستغنى
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
But he who is greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient.
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
وكذب بالحسنى
Wakaththaba bialhusna
And belies Al-Husna (See the footnote of the Verse No.6)
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
فسنيسره للعسرى
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
We will make smooth for him the path for evil.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
وما يغني عنه ماله إذا تردى
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
And what will his wealth avail him when he goes down (in destruction)?.
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
إن علينا للهدى
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
Truly! On Us is (to give) guidance.
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
وإن لنا للآخرة والأولى
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
And truly, unto Us (belong) the last (Hereafter) and the first (this world).
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
فأنذرتكم نارا تلظى
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
Therefore I have warned you of a blazing Fire (Hell).
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
لا يصلاها إلا الأشقى
La yaslaha illa alashqa
None shall enter it save the most wretched.
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
الذي كذب وتولى
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
Who denies and turns away.
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
وسيجنبها الأتقى
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
And Al-Muttaqun (the pious - See V.2:2) will be far removed from it (Hell).
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
الذي يؤتي ماله يتزكى
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
He who spends his wealth for increase in self-purification,
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
وما لأحد عنده من نعمة تجزى
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
And who has (in mind) no favour from anyone to be paid back,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
إلا ابتغاء وجه ربه الأعلى
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
Except to seek the Countenance of his Lord, the Most High.
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
ولسوف يرضى
Walasawfa yarda
He surely will be pleased (when he enters Paradise).
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
