بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم نشرح لك صدرك
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Chapter 94, 8 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم نشرح لك صدرك
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
ووضعنا عنك وزرك
And We removed from you your burden
And eased thee of the burden
And taken off from you your burden,
الذي أنقض ظهرك
Which had weighed upon your back
Which weighed down thy back;
Which pressed heavily upon your back,
ورفعنا لك ذكرك
And raised high for you your repute.
And exalted thy fame ?
And exalted for you your esteem?
فإن مع العسر يسرا
For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
Surely with difficulty is ease.
إن مع العسر يسرا
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
With difficulty is surely ease.
فإذا فرغت فانصب
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].
So when thou art relieved, still toil
So when you are free, nominate.
وإلى ربك فارغب
And to your Lord direct [your] longing.
And strive to please thy Lord.
And make your Lord your exclusive object.
