আল আদিয়াত (উর্ধ্বশ্বাসে দৌড়ানো)

1 WaalAAadiyati dabhan

1 I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,

2 Faalmooriyati qadhan

2 Then those that produce fire striking,

2 Striking sparks of fire

3 Faalmugheerati subhan

3 Then those that make raids at morn,

3 And scouring to the raid at dawn,

4 Faatharna bihi naqAAan

4 Then thereby raise dust,

4 Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,

5 Fawasatna bihi jamAAan

5 Then rush thereby upon an assembly:

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

6 Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun

6 Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.

6 Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

7 Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun

7 And most surely he is a witness of that.

7 And lo! he is a witness unto that;

8 Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun

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

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

9 Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori

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

9 Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth

10 Wahussila ma fee alssudoori

10 And what is in the breasts is made apparent?

10 And the secrets of the breasts are made known,

11 Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun

11 Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.

11 On that day will their Lord be perfectly informed concerning them.
