Al Adiyat

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,

2 Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves).

2 Striking sparks of fire

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn.

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

4 And raise the dust in clouds the while.

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

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

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

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

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

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

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

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

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

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

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

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

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.
