আল আদিয়াত (উর্ধ্বশ্বাসে দৌড়ানো)

1 I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,

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

1 WaalAAadiyati dabhan

2 Then those that produce fire striking,

2 And strike sparks of fire,

2 Faalmooriyati qadhan

3 Then those that make raids at morn,

3 And push home the charge in the morning,

3 Faalmugheerati subhan

4 Then thereby raise dust,

4 And raise the dust in clouds the while,

4 Faatharna bihi naqAAan

5 Then rush thereby upon an assembly:

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

5 Fawasatna bihi jamAAan

6 Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.

6 Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;

6 Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun

7 And most surely he is a witness of that.

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

7 Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun

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

8 And violent is he in his love of wealth.

8 Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun

9 Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,

9 Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad

9 Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori

10 And what is in the breasts is made apparent?

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

10 Wahussila ma fee alssudoori

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?

11 Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
