Al Adiyat

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

1 By the racers, panting,

2 Striking sparks of fire

2 And the producers of sparks [when] striking

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

3 And the chargers at dawn,

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

4 Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,

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

5 Arriving thereby in the center collectively,

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

6 Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

7 And indeed, he is to that a witness.

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

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

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

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

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

10 And that within the breasts is obtained,

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

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