ইনশিরাহ (উন্মুক্ত করা)

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,

1 Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?

1 Have We not expanded for you your breast,

2 And eased thee of the burden

2 And We removed from you your burden

2 And taken off from you your burden,

3 Which weighed down thy back;

3 Which had weighed upon your back

3 Which pressed heavily upon your back,

4 And exalted thy fame ?

4 And raised high for you your repute.

4 And exalted for you your esteem?

5 But lo! with hardship goeth ease,

5 For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.

5 Surely with difficulty is ease.

6 Lo! with hardship goeth ease;

6 Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.

6 With difficulty is surely ease.

7 So when thou art relieved, still toil

7 So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].

7 So when you are free, nominate.

8 And strive to please thy Lord.

8 And to your Lord direct [your] longing.

8 And make your Lord your exclusive object.
