I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Chapter 100, 11 verses
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
Then those that produce fire striking,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
And strike sparks of fire,
فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًا
Then those that make raids at morn,
Faalmugheerati subhan
And push home the charge in the morning,
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
Then thereby raise dust,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
And most surely he is a witness of that.
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ
