Chapter 94, 8 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Have We not opened your breast for you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)?
Alam nashrah laka sadraka
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
And removed from you your burden.
WawadaAAna AAanka wizraka
And eased thee of the burden
Which weighed down your back?
Allathee anqada thahraka
Which weighed down thy back;
And have We not raised high your fame?
WarafaAAna laka thikraka
And exalted thy fame ?
Verily, along with every hardship is relief,
Fainna maAAa alAAusri yusran
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
Verily, along with every hardship is relief (i.e. there is one hardship with two reliefs, so one hardship cannot overcome two reliefs).
Inna maAAa alAAusri yusran
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
So when you have finished (your occupation), devote yourself for Allah's worship.
Faitha faraghta fainsab
So when thou art relieved, still toil
And to your Lord (Alone) turn (all your) intentions and hopes.
Waila rabbika fairghab
And strive to please thy Lord.
