Have We not expanded for you your breast,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?

Chapter 94, 8 verses
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
Alam nashrah laka sadraka
And taken off from you your burden,
And eased thee of the burden
And We removed from you your burden

Which pressed heavily upon your back,
Which weighed down thy back;
Which had weighed upon your back

And exalted for you your esteem?
And exalted thy fame ?
And raised high for you your repute.

Surely with difficulty is ease.
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.

With difficulty is surely ease.
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
Inna maAAa alAAusri yusran
So when you are free, nominate.
So when thou art relieved, still toil
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].

And make your Lord your exclusive object.
And strive to please thy Lord.
And to your Lord direct [your] longing.
