بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the night enshrouding
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And the day resplendent
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ

وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And believeth in goodness;
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,
Wakaththaba bialhusna
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And disbelieveth in goodness;
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
Surely We will ease his way unto adversity.
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ

Inna AAalayna lalhuda
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former.
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire
La yaslaha illa alashqa
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
Which only the most wretched must endure,
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
He who denieth and turneth away.
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
Far removed from it will be the righteous
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
And none hath with him any favour for reward,
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.
Walasawfa yarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
He verily will be content.
