Chapter 100, 11 verses
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
By the racers, panting,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
فالموريات قدحا
And strike sparks of fire,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
Faalmugheerati subhan
فالمغيرات صبحا
And push home the charge in the morning,
And the chargers at dawn,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
فأثرن به نقعا
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
فوسطن به جمعا
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
وحصل ما في الصدور
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
And that within the breasts is obtained,
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
