I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Chapter 100, 11 verses
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Then those that produce fire striking,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
Striking sparks of fire
فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًا
Then those that make raids at morn,
Faalmugheerati subhan
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
Then thereby raise dust,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
And most surely he is a witness of that.
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ
