Al Adiyat

1 WaalAAadiyati dabhan

1 By the racers, panting,

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,

2 Faalmooriyati qadhan

2 And the producers of sparks [when] striking

2 Striking sparks of fire

3 Faalmugheerati subhan

3 And the chargers at dawn,

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

4 Faatharna bihi naqAAan

4 Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

5 Fawasatna bihi jamAAan

5 Arriving thereby in the center collectively,

5 Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),

6 Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun

6 Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

7 Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun

7 And indeed, he is to that a witness.

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

8 Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun

8 And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.

8 And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.

9 Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori

9 But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered

9 Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth

10 Wahussila ma fee alssudoori

10 And that within the breasts is obtained,

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

11 Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun

11 Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.

11 On that day will their Lord be perfectly informed concerning them.
