Chapter 100, 11 verses
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
By the racers, panting,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
Then those that produce fire striking,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
فالموريات قدحا
Faalmooriyati qadhan
Then those that make raids at morn,
And the chargers at dawn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
Faalmugheerati subhan
Then thereby raise dust,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
فوسطن به جمعا
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
And that within the breasts is obtained,
وحصل ما في الصدور
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
