Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
فالموريات قدحا
Striking sparks of fire
Faalmooriyati qadhan
And the chargers at dawn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
Faalmugheerati subhan
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
فوسطن به جمعا
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
And that within the breasts is obtained,
وحصل ما في الصدور
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
