Chapter 92, 21 verses
Waallayli itha yaghsha
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
By the Day as it appears in glory;
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
Wakaththaba bialhusna
And gives the lie to the best, -
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
La yaslaha illa alashqa
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it, -
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self - purification,
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
Walasawfa yarda
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
