الـعاديات

1 By the racers, panting,

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,

1 WaalAAadiyati dabhan

2 And the producers of sparks [when] striking

2 Striking sparks of fire

2 Faalmooriyati qadhan

3 And the chargers at dawn,

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

3 Faalmugheerati subhan

4 Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

4 Faatharna bihi naqAAan

5 Arriving thereby in the center collectively,

5 Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),

5 Fawasatna bihi jamAAan

6 Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

6 Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun

7 And indeed, he is to that a witness.

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

7 Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun

8 And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.

8 And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.

8 Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun

9 But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered

9 Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth

9 Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori

10 And that within the breasts is obtained,

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

10 Wahussila ma fee alssudoori

11 Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.

11 On that day will their Lord be perfectly informed concerning them.

11 Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
