In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
By the racers, panting,
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Chapter 100, 11 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
By the racers, panting,
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Striking sparks of fire
فالموريات قدحا
And strike sparks of fire,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًا
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
And push home the charge in the morning,
And the chargers at dawn,
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
فوسطن به جمعا
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
وحصل ما في الصدور
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
And that within the breasts is obtained,
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ
