Chapter 92, 21 verses
I swear by the night when it draws a veil,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
By the night when it covers
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
And the day when it shines in brightness,
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And [by] the day when it appears
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And the creating of the male and the female,
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
And [by] He who created the male and female,
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends).
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil),
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
As for he who gives and fears Allah
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And accepts the best,
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And believes in the best [reward],
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the easy end.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
We will ease him toward ease.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And rejects the best,
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And denies the best [reward],
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the difficult end.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
We will ease him toward difficulty.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes.
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Surely Ours is it to show the way,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Who had denied and turned away.
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
But the righteous one will avoid it -
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
And he is going to be satisfied.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
