Have We not expanded for you your breast,
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)?

die deinen Rücken niederdrückte,
Which pressed heavily upon your back,
Which weighed down your back?
ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ
und dir dein Ansehen erhöht?
And exalted for you your esteem?
And have We not raised high your fame?
وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ
