أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
Chapter 94, 8 verses
أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ
And taken off from you your burden,
And removed from thee thy burden
ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ
Which pressed heavily upon your back,
The which did gall thy back? -
وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ
And exalted for you your esteem?
And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?
فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا
Surely with difficulty is ease.
So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:
إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا
With difficulty is surely ease.
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ
So when you are free, nominate.
Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,
وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب
And make your Lord your exclusive object.
And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention.
