1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the (steeds) that run, with panting.

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

1 I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,

2 Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves).

2 Striking sparks of fire

2 Then those that produce fire striking,

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn.

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

3 Then those that make raids at morn,

4 And raise the dust in clouds the while.

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

4 Then thereby raise dust,

5 And penetrating forthwith as one into the midst (of the foe).

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

5 Then rush thereby upon an assembly:

6 Verily, man (disbeliever) is ungrateful to his Lord.

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

6 Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.

7 And to that he bears witness (by his deeds).

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

7 And most surely he is a witness of that.

8 And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth.

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

8 And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.

9 Knows he not that when the contents of the graves are poured forth (all mankind is resurrected)?

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

9 Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,

10 And that which is in the breasts (of men) is made known?

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

10 And what is in the breasts is made apparent?

11 Verily, that Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) their Lord will be Well-Acquainted with them (as to their deeds and will reward them for their deeds).

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

11 Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
