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

1 I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,

1 By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),

2 Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves).

2 Then those that produce fire striking,

2 And strike sparks of fire,

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn.

3 Then those that make raids at morn,

3 And push home the charge in the morning,

4 And raise the dust in clouds the while.

4 Then thereby raise dust,

4 And raise the dust in clouds the while,

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

5 Then rush thereby upon an assembly:

5 And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -

7 And most surely he is a witness of that.

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

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

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

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

10 And what is in the breasts is made apparent?

10 And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -

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

11 That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
