Chapter 92, 21 verses
Waallayli itha yaghsha
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
I swear by the night when it draws a veil,
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And the day when it shines in brightness,
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
And the creating of the male and the female,
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends).
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil),
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
And accepts the best,
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the easy end.
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
Wakaththaba bialhusna
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
And rejects the best,
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the difficult end.
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes.
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Surely Ours is it to show the way,
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former.
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
La yaslaha illa alashqa
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
Walasawfa yarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
