Chapter 92, 21 verses
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
By the night when it covers
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
والنهار إذا تجلى
And [by] the day when it appears
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
وما خلق الذكر والأنثى
And [by] He who created the male and female,
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
إن سعيكم لشتى
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
فأما من أعطى واتقى
As for he who gives and fears Allah
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
وصدق بالحسنى
And believes in the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
فسنيسره لليسرى
We will ease him toward ease.
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
وأما من بخل واستغنى
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
وكذب بالحسنى
And denies the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
فسنيسره للعسرى
We will ease him toward difficulty.
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
وما يغني عنه ماله إذا تردى
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
إن علينا للهدى
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
وإن لنا للآخرة والأولى
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
فأنذرتكم نارا تلظى
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
لا يصلاها إلا الأشقى
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
الذي كذب وتولى
Who had denied and turned away.
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
وسيجنبها الأتقى
But the righteous one will avoid it -
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
الذي يؤتي ماله يتزكى
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
وما لأحد عنده من نعمة تجزى
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
إلا ابتغاء وجه ربه الأعلى
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
ولسوف يرضى
And he is going to be satisfied.
