Chapter 100, 11 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
By the racers, panting,
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Striking sparks of fire
Then those that produce fire striking,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًا
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
Then those that make raids at morn,
And the chargers at dawn,
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
Then thereby raise dust,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
And most surely he is tenacious in the 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
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
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,
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
And that within the breasts is obtained,
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ
