1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the Dawn

1 Waalfajri

2 And ten nights,

2 Walayalin AAashrin

3 And the Even and the Odd,

3 WaalshshafAAi waalwatri

4 And the night when it departeth,

4 Waallayli itha yasri

5 There surely is an oath for thinking man.

5 Hal fee thalika qasamun lithee hijrin

6 Dost thou not consider how thy Lord dealt with (the tribe of) A'ad,

6 Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biAAadin

7 With many - columned Iram,

7 Irama thati alAAimadi

8 The like of which was not created in the lands;

8 Allatee lam yukhlaq mithluha fee albiladi

9 And with (the tribe of) Thamud, who clove the rocks in the valley;

9 Wathamooda allatheena jaboo alssakhra bialwadi

10 And with Pharaoh, firm of might,

10 WafirAAawna thee alawtadi

11 Who (all) were rebellious (to Allah) in these lands,

11 Allatheena taghaw fee albiladi

12 And multiplied iniquity therein ?

12 Faaktharoo feeha alfasada

13 Therefore thy Lord poured on them the disaster of His punishment.

13 Fasabba AAalayhim rabbuka sawta AAathabin

14 Lo! thy Lord is ever watchful.

14 Inna rabbaka labialmirsadi

15 As for man, whenever his Lord trieth him by honouring him, and is gracious unto him, he saith: My Lord honoureth me.

15 Faamma alinsanu itha ma ibtalahu rabbuhu faakramahu wanaAAAAamahu fayaqoolu rabbee akramani

16 But whenever He trieth him by straitening his means of life, he saith: My Lord despiseth me.

16 Waamma itha ma ibtalahu faqadara AAalayhi rizqahu fayaqoolu rabbee ahanani

17 Nay, but ye (for your part) honour not the orphan

17 Kalla bal la tukrimoona alyateema

18 And urge not on the feeding of the poor.

18 Wala tahaddoona AAala taAAami almiskeeni

19 And ye devour heritages with devouring greed.

19 Watakuloona altturatha aklan lamman

20 And love wealth with abounding love.

20 Watuhibboona almala hubban jamman

21 Nay, but when the earth is ground to atoms, grinding, grinding,

21 Kalla itha dukkati alardu dakkan dakkan

22 And thy Lord shall come with angels, rank on rank,

22 Wajaa rabbuka waalmalaku saffan saffan

23 And hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the remembrance (then avail him) ?

23 Wajeea yawmaithin bijahannama yawmaithin yatathakkaru alinsanu waanna lahu alththikra

24 He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life!

24 Yaqoolu ya laytanee qaddamtu lihayatee

25 None punisheth as He will punish on that day!

25 Fayawmaithin la yuAAaththibu AAathabahu ahadun

26 None bindeth as He then will bind.

26 Wala yoothiqu wathaqahu ahadun

27 But ah! thou soul at peace!

27 Ya ayyatuha alnnafsu almutmainnatu

28 Return unto thy Lord, content in His good pleasure!

28 IrjiAAee ila rabbiki radiyatan mardiyyatan

29 Enter thou among My bondmen!

29 Faodkhulee fee AAibadee

30 Enter thou My Garden!

30 Waodkhulee jannatee
